Abstract

The relationship between some selected attitudes toward study hall and the criterion of self-reported grades was investigated in a sample of 981 boys and 1019 girls, representative of the national population of high school students. Less time spent in study hall and more time spent doing homework outside of school were associated with better grades. Moderate amounts of time spent doing homework at school tended to be associated with better grades. Unfavorable attitudes and perceived unfavorable attitudes toward study hall were associated with better grades. Preference for serious studying at home was associated with reports of better grades. It was concluded that the better students did more homework; but study hall was neither the time nor the place of their choosing.
