Three high school students participated in semi-structured interviews. The findings revealed four main factors that determined their reading practices: motivation to read, home literacy practices, students' reading rituals, and digital literacy practices.

Demographics as Variables in Assessing the Study Habits of High School Students in a Catholic School

Study habits and skills differ from one person to another. Effective study habits are instrumental for students to gain mastery of a topic learned and ensure good academic performance. Study habits that students employ to cope with their lessons are ways, techniques, and learning styles which may include, but not limited to, time management or the number of hours spent studying their lessons and making assignments; study environment, test-taking skills which include students’ readiness or preparedness in taking tests; note-taking skills or student’s efficiency in taking down notes during class hours or while reading; reading skills which are the student’s ability to understand and comprehend lessons, tests, and reading materials; writing skills or the ability to observe correct grammar and to write effectively; and math skills or the facility and ease in solving math problems. With the advancement of technology, students nowadays engage themselves more in gadgets and spend more time in electronic media and social media; thus, students' study habits are slowly deteriorating when it comes to frequency and quality. Hence, this study was conducted to determine the level of study habits in relation to selected demographics of high school students in a Catholic School in Antique during the school year 2019-2020.

Reading habits of secondary school students in Serbia

Reading habits are an essential aspect for creating a functionally literate society and for its positioning at the global level. In this regard, the aim of this paper is to examine quantities and contents that high school students read, including compulsory reading and other books that do not belong to this corpus. We also tried to examine students? opinions about ways that could contribute to their motivation to read books, to consider their reading habits keeping in mind the family context and the use of library services, as well as to determine whether reading books is related to gender, academic achievement, the type of school that the students attend, the class and the education of their parents. Students (N=1378) from high schools and secondary vocational schools from several cities in Serbia participated in the research. A questionnaire was used, constructed for the purposes of this study. The results show that adolescents are reluctant to read reading materials contained in the curriculum. The majority of students read books outside of this corpus, and they most often read comics, science fiction, crime and romance novels. More than one fifth of students do not recognise any way that would motivate them to read books. Since there has been no visible improvement in this area in teaching practice over the last decade, it would be desirable to introduce and affirm optional subjects that would contribute to improving the reading habits of high school students (especially in secondary vocational schools).

KOCKANJE - ZABAVA ILI OPASNA OVISNOST?

Posljednjih godina istraživanja o kockanju sve su brojnija, a tema aktualnija zbog ozbiljnih posljedica (društevenih, obiteljskih, moralnih) koje uzrokuje. Cilj rada je ispitati učestalost i navike kockanja srednjoškolaca u Dubrovniku, te utvrditi postoji li povezanost između sociodemografskih obilježja ispitanika i učestalosti kockanja. U istraživanju su sudjelovala 162 učenika srednjih škola u Dubrovniku (gimnazije i srednje strukovne škole) pri čemu je zastupljenost mladića bila veća (N=106, 65,4%) u odnosu na djevojke (N=56, 34,6%). Kako bi odgovorili na postavljeni cilj, koristili smo dva instrumenta: Upitnik o općim sociodemografskim podacima i Upitnik aktivnosti kockanja.&#x0D; Rezultati pokazuju kako je 78,4% učenika obuhvaćenih istraživanjem bar jednom u životu igralo igre na sreću (u bilo kojem obliku), a samo 21,6% sudionika nikad nije primjenjivao niti jedan oblik igara na sreću. Sportske kladionice (51,20%) predstavljaju najčešći oblik kockanja učenika u Dubrovniku. Zatim, slijede lutrijske igre kao što su Loto, Bingo i Eurojackpot (47,50%), dok je najmanje zastupljen rulet (21%). S obzirom na sociodemografske karakteristike uzorka, utvrđeno je kako učenici muškog spola kockaju više od vršnjakinja ženskog spola, te, s obzirom na vrstu škole koju pohađaju, utvrđeno je kako su učenici iz gimnazije manje skloni kockanju od učenika strukovne škole. Dobiveni rezultati mogu poslužiti kao smjernice za planiranje izrade preventivnih programa rizičnih ponašanja adolescenata.

Reading is one of the essential components of good study habits. For a student belonging to any grade academic success has a strong correlation with reading. An effective reader is someone who is actively engaged and is responsible for understanding and comprehending the idea expressed in the text. Reading not only helps in academic success but also aids in developing critical thinking and problem solving ability. Unfortunately reading ability among students is somewhere lost amidst the digital world. Therefore in order to see the impact of reading ability on study habits of high school students we conducted a study on 226 eighth grade students. 122 of them belong to state board syllabus, 56 from CBSE and 48 from ICSE syllabus. We administered study habit inventory (Palsane and sharma, 1989) for all the students before and after intervention. The intervention included 16 sessions of 15 minutes each for the experimental group, of 76 students (34 from state syllabus, 22 from CBSE and 20 from ICSE) 5 days a week. We recorded the time taken by each student to read a list of 30 English words (selected from prescribed text books for English, social science and science).we noted the no, of trials and time taken for each trial during 15 minutes per student. The statistical analysis using ANOVA indicates a significant increase in study habit score as a result of intervention for the experimental group.
