Abstract

Background: Peer relationships are formed through interactions that occur both at home and in educational settings. Adolescents often function as sources of advice, motivation, and behavioral modeling for their peers, which can significantly influence individual attitudes and behaviors. The quality of these peer relationships is closely associated with students' academic achievement. Adolescents are expected to develop self-regulatory skills to minimize learning gaps and avoid negative learning attitudes. Objective: This study aims to examine the influence of peer relationships on the academic achievement of female students. Method: The study employed an analytical survey design with a cross-sectional approach, involving 70 respondents. Data were analyzed using the Chi-Square test, with a significance level set at p < 0.05. Results: The Fisher's Exact Test yielded p-values of 0.023 and 0.05, indicating a statistically significant association between peer relationships and the academic achievement of female students. Conclusion: This study recommends the inclusion of additional variables and a broader research scope in future studies to strengthen the findings. Female students are encouraged to build peer relationships with individuals who can serve as academic motivators, thereby fostering continuous improvement in their academic performance.

Abstract

Risky dieting is an unbalanced eating pattern increasingly practiced by adolescent girls and has the potential to impact cognitive function and academic achievement. However, previous research has focused more on the impact of risky dieting on nutritional status and physical health, while empirical evidence regarding its relationship with academic achievement in adolescent girls is still limited, particularly in the context of higher education. This study aimed to analyze the relationship between risky dieting and academic achievement in adolescent girls. The study used a quantitative design involving 70 adolescent girls. Data were collected through a peer counselor-based questionnaire to measure risky dietary habits and academic achievement. Data analysis was performed using Fisher's exact test. The results showed p-values of 0.05 and 0.023, respectively, indicating a significant relationship between risky dieting and academic achievement. Adolescent girls who engaged in risky dieting tended to have lower semester GPAs (11%) and cumulative GPAs (4%). The study concluded that risky dieting contributes to decreased academic achievement. This study contributes by expanding empirical evidence regarding the impact of risky dieting on academic achievement and emphasizes the importance of integrating nutrition interventions and health education in strategies to improve academic achievement in adolescent girls.
