place of residence, that lives with their parents has a good academic
performance which has a mean of 29.71. The result of this study agreed to
the study of Eccles, 1993. Therefore it implies that study habits have good

As can be seen in this table, comparison of the mean from the

independent groups and the study habits would suggest that within
the groups perform better academically (sum of square 4. 500), (DF =
28), (mean square = .161) than the between groups (sum of square = .
467), (DF = 1), (mean square=.467). To test whether the difference in
mean performance between the two groups was statistically
significant, independent samples ANOVAs was performed. The result in
Table 4 found no significant difference with a significant value of 0. 099
