Pearson Product Moment Correlation and Multiple Regression analysis were used to analyze the data collected. Results revealed that there is a significant relationship between self-concept and internet addiction (r = 0.097 p <0.05), there is no significant relationship between gender and internet addiction (r = 0.041 p <0.05), there is a joint relative relationship between self-concept, gender and internet addiction (F2, = 1.92, p <0.05) predict internet addiction (t = 0.639 p < 0.05) and self-concept statistically predict internet addiction (t =1.656 p<0.05).

Abstract

This study investigated the predictive power of students’ locus of control as well as a self-concept on ability levels of internet addiction among undergraduate students of al-hikmah University- Ilorin. A correlation survey research design was adopted for the study. Five research questions were answered and five null hypotheses were tested. The study was conducted in the Ilorin Metropolis of Kwara State. A convenient sampling technique was used to select 550 participants that use the e-library and Information and Communication Technology (ICT) regularly. Instruments such as the Self-Concept Scale, Locus of Control Scale and Internet Addiction Scale were adopted to gather information from the respondents. Data collected were analyzed using Pearson product-moment correlation (PPMC) and regression analysis to answer both the research questions and the null hypotheses were tested at 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed that self-concept, internal and external locus of control and gender significantly predicts internet addiction among undergraduate students of Al-Hikmah. The combination of self-concept and locus of control significantly predicts students’ internet addiction among undergraduate students of Al-Hikmah. We recommended that School counsellors should build self-reliance in external control-oriented students to strive harder even when anticipating that luck and fate could determine their Success. School counsellors should support internal control-oriented students on the need to develop self-efficacy and competency and use opportunities to facilitate them to attain their desired goals. The school management should enlighten their students on how to use their efforts in the use of the internet and advocate how to avoid being addicted to it.

Abstract

Poor performance in numeracy at the primary level of education may result from inadequate instructional materials, methods, techniques, or strategies used in teaching it. This study investigated the effects of constructive and social play on pupils' academic performance in numeracy in Niger State. The study examined the interaction effects of constructive, social play, gender, and school type on pupils' academic performance in numeracy in Niger State. The study adopted the social-cultural theory of Lev Vygotsky. The research design used was a pretest-posttest control group non-equivalent quasi-experimental design. A stratified random sampling technique was adopted to select six schools for the study. The instrument used was Numeracy Performance Test (NPT). The Pearson Moment Correlation Coefficient was used to ascertain the reliability coefficient of 0.76 coefficients that were obtained. Frequency counts, percentage, mean, and ANCOVA were used to analyze the data collected. The results revealed that social and constructive play substantially impacted pupils' numeracy performance in Niger State. There was no gender-related difference in student performance in maths and no statistically significant interaction between therapy and gender on pupils' performance in numeracy. In Niger State, there was no discernible correlation between the type of school and pupils' performance in numeracy. Gender and school type did not significantly affect pupils' academic performance in numeracy, suggesting that social play and constructive play increased higher performance in math than the traditional style of instruction.

Abstract

This study investigated the relationship between self-efficacy, gender, and drug addiction among secondary school students in Ilorin West local government area of Kwara State. A sample of 150 responses was anlysed. Correlation analysis revealed a significant negative association between self-efficacy and drug addiction (r = -0.47, p < 0.05). Additionally, gender displayed a moderate positive correlation with drug addiction (r = 0.52, p < 0.05). However, the regression analysis did not find a significant combined contribution of self-efficacy, drug addiction, and gender to the students' performance (F (2, 147) = 2.87, p > 0.05). The findings suggest that while self-efficacy and gender individually associate with drug addiction, their combined influence does not significantly predict academic performance among secondary school students in Ilorin West.

Abstract

Secondary school teenagers' social retreat was examined in relation to self-efficacy and gender. The study is guided by two goals, two research questions, and two research hypotheses. It was conducted using a descriptive research correlational design. 100 youths were randomly selected from five senior secondary specialised schools. The General Self-Efficacy Scale by The University of Kansas Center (2015) r = 0.86; and the Social Ability Deficiency Scale (SADS/SPS) by Akinade (2017) r = 0.17 were used to collect the data. The Pearson Product Moment Correlation and T-test were used in the study to formulate and test two research hypotheses. Results showed that there is a very strong positive relationship between self-efficacy and social withdrawal (p. 0.05 < r.cal. = 0.863), but there is no significant relationship between male and female adolescents’ social withdrawal behaviour (p. 0.05 < t.cal. = 31.318). Based on the results, the study concluded that self-efficacy has a significant positive relationship with social withdrawal among secondary school adolescents. The study also concluded that female adolescents were more affected by social withdrawal behaviour than their male counterparts. Based on the conclusion, the study recommends, among others that the school management set aside a day for adolescents to engage in co-play. The school counsellors should organise a conference for female adolescents to orientate them more on self-evaluation in order to help them be aware of social withdrawal behaviour symptoms and how to build on their self-efficacy.
