  3. INTRODUCTION • Study performances achieved during the first year could be used to identify factors that influences it. • By discovering the factors, we could learn to improve ourselves

  4. LITERATURE REVIEW • Social lifestyle • “Social lifestyle affects one’s self esteem and behavior. Increased in both aspects support cognitive learning.” (Cocke, 2002) (Shephard, 1997) Source : Does Physical Activity Influence Academic Performance? by Leslee J.

  6. LITERATURE REVIEW • Environmental • “Environmental variables can impact learners indirectly. For example, distracting noises appear to slow reaction time and degrade performances” (Weinstein) Source : Carol S.

  9. GENERAL OBJECTIVE • To determine various factors such as • study environment • student’s behavior • social upbringing and • healthy lifestyle that can influence study performance among 2nd year medical students.

  10. SPECIFIC OBJECTIVES • To determine the influence of sociodemographicvariables on CGPA result of medical students. • To study the influence of social upbringingon CGPA result of medical students. • To find the relationship between their study methods and CGPA result of medical students. • To study the relationship between the social lifestyle of studentsand CGPA result of medical students. • To determine the influence of study environmentonCGPA result of medical students. • To study the association between the spirituality of studentand CGPA result of medical students.

  11. HYPOTHESIS 1.a)There is a difference of study performances among the male and femalemedical students. b)There is a difference of study performances between races. • There is a strong influence of family background and peers on the CGPA achieved. • There is a significant association between the study behavior of students and CGPA achieved. • There is a significant difference of CGPA achievement between medical students with healthy dietary and physical lifestyle habitsand the ones that do not. • There is a strong influence of study environment on the medical students’ CGPA achievement. • There is a significant difference of CGPA achievement between medical students who have strong spirituality and students who do not.

  12. METHODOLOGY • Questionnaire : self-administered • Cross-sectional study • Target population: 2nd year UKM medical students 122 out of 227 batch 2008/2009 • Analytic statistic – ANOVA, Chi-Square, Correlation, T-test • Significant level of p<0.05

  13. METHODOLOGY • Convenience sampling - 122 2ND year medical students in UKM - Starting 28 July to 8th August • The average CGPA calculated for both semesters is 2.81

  14. QUESTIONNAIRES • Sociodemographic ( Gender, Race, Religion) • CGPA (Average of 2 semesters) • Family • Peer • Education History • Physical • Diet • Environment • Spiritual

  15. RESPONDENT : AGE 18 years old : 1 (0.82%) 19 years old : 19 (15.57 %) 20 years old : 90 (73.77 %) 21 years old : 12 (9.84 %)

  16. RESPONDENT : GENDER RESPONDENT: GENDER MALE : 52 (42.62 %) FEMALE : 70 (57.38%)

  17. RESPONDENT : RACE MALAY : 72 (59.02 %) CHINESE : 42 (34.43%) INDIAN : 6 (4.92 %) OTHER : 2 (1 .64%)

  18. RESPONDENT : RELIGION MUSLIM : 72 (59.02%) BUDDHIST: 35 (28.69%) CHRISTIAN: 7 (5.74%) HINDU : 5 (4.10%) OTHERS : 3 (2.46%)

  19. RESULT

  20. Ho: There is no difference of study performances between male & female medical students T Test P>0.05 – NOT SIGNIFICANT Ho is NOT REJECTED CONCLUSION : THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE OF STUDY PERFORMANCES BETWEEN MALE & FEMALE MEDICAL STUDENTS.

  21. Ho: There is no difference of study performances between races among the medical students. P<0.05 – SIGNIFICANT Ho is REJECTED CONCLUSION : THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN STUDY PERFORMANCES ACCORDING TO RACE, AMONG UKM 2ND YR MEDICAL STUDENTS (CHINESE STUDENTS HAVE HIGHER MEAN CGPA)

  22. Ho: There is no influence of family background on the CGPA achieved. P>0.05 – NOT SIGNIFICANT Ho is NOT REJECTED CONCLUSION : THERE IS NO SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN CGPA ACCORDING TO FAMILY BACKGROUND, AMONG UKM 2ND YR MEDICAL STUDENTS.

  23. Ho: There are no influences of peers on the CGPA achieved. P>0.05 – NOT SIGNIFICANT Ho is NOT REJECTED CONCLUSION : THERE IS NO SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE IN CGPA SCORE ACCORDING TO PEER INFLUENCE, AMONG UKM 2ND YR MEDICAL STUDENTS.

  24. Ho : There is no difference between method of study with CGPA achieved. Chi-Square Test P<0.05 – SIGNIFICANT Ho is REJECTED CONCLUSION : THERE IS AN ASSOCIATION BETWEEN METHOD OF STUDY WITH CGPA ACHIEVED BY UKM 2ND YR MEDICAL STUDENTS (individual study method is associated with above average CGPA, compared to other methods)

  25. Ho : There is no association between dietary and physical lifestyle habits, with the CGPA achieved. Chi-Square Test P>0.05 – NOT SIGNIFICANT Ho is NOT REJECTED CONCLUSION : DIETARY AND PHYSICAL LIFESTYLE HABITS DO NOT SIGNIFICANTLY INFLUENCE THE CGPA ACHIEVED BY UKM 2ND YR MEDICAL STUDENTS.

  26. Ho: There is no influence of study environment with the CGPA achieved. P<0.05 – SIGNIFICANT Ho is REJECTED CONCLUSION : THERE IS A WEAK BUT SIGNIFICANT ASSOCIATION BETWEEN STUDY ENVIRONMENT AND THE CGPA ACHIEVED BY UKM 2ND YR MEDICAL STUDENTS.

  27. Ho: There is no difference of CGPA achieved between medical students who have strong spirituality and students who do not. Chi Square Test P<0.05 – SIGNIFICANT Ho is REJECTED CONCLUSION : THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT ASSOCIATION BETWEEN STUDY PERFORMANCE AND SPIRITUALITY AMONG UKM 2ND YR MEDICAL STUDENTS.

  28. STUDY LIMITATIONS • This study sample size (N= 122) is approximately only slightly over half of total 2nd yr class size (> 200) • May not accurately represent the true picture for entire class • Study results applicable mainly to UKM 2nd yr medical student population • Respondents in other yrs / courses / universities may have different opinions / give different results • Recall bias • Students’ memory to respond to questions involving past semesters may be less accurate with passage of time

  29. CONCLUSION • The factors that affect the study performances (CGPA) of 2nd year medical students are: • RACES • METHOD OF STUDY • STUDY ENVIRONMENT • SPIRITUALITY • The factors that do not affect the study performances (CGPA) • GENDER • FAMILY BACKGROUND • INFLUENCE OF PEERS • SOCIAL LIFESTYLE

  30. SUGGESTIONS • Students should study individually because it give advantages for those who applied it • Concentrate better • We should choose a more conducive study environment to boost our study performance and achivement • Be more spiritual!!!!!
