Abstract:
The education plays an immense role in finetuning the human beings in all over the
world. But there is an adverse trend is blooming when considering the future trends
relating to the academic performances of undergraduates. Female undergraduates are
outperforming their male counterparts leads to increment of performance gap between
the two gender. The researcher was induced by the problem which relating to lower
performance of the male undergraduates in the universities.
In order to standing with above problem, this study was conducted for identifying the
factors that influence on male management undergraduates in SUSL. There were seven
independent variables were employed astime management, attendance on lectures, peer
influence, English knowledge, learning strategies, academic motivation and self determination. The sample of the study was 297 students who are representing the 75%
from the population. Since the population is known stratified simple random sampling
technique was used under the probability sampling method. Hypothesis was tested to
identifying the factors that influencing on academic performance of male management
undergraduates. The results revealed that lecture attendance, peer influence, English
knowledge, learning strategies and academic motivation has a positive impact on the
academic performance of male management undergraduates in SUSL while time
management is not a significance factor and self-determination describe the negative
impact.
As for the main beneficiaries, directly finding of the study would assist for male
management undergraduates in SUSL, in order to obtain high level of academic
performances. Not only that relevant authorities able to get the understanding of the
factors that influence on the students and convenience to get the decisions relating to
the academic performance. Not only that this study would slightly contribute for the
world issue to balance the performance differences among the two gender. For the wide
generalizability, future researchers have great opportunity to find out the more factors
that are relevant to the academic performance of male undergraduates in different
contexts.
