Adolescence is the transitional period during which problematic behavior peaks in onset. Children who are aggressive may spend relatively more time misbehaving or being disciplined, reducing the amount of time they have to spend engaged in academic work. A problem behavior may exhibit a spurious correlation with academic achievement. Aggressive children may also develop negative relationships with teachers and peers or negative attitude towards school, and as a consequence, they exert less effort on academic work. On the other hand, good study habits quite obviously lead to high academic achievement and thence to good careers. This investigation therefore has attempted to find out the relationship between aggression and study habits of adolescent life and how this relationship effects the academic achievement of them. The sample consisted of 620 students from class VII to 2nd year students of college.
