Abstract in brief

  • The study found that inventories assessing students’ study habits, skills, and attitudes are strong predictors of college academic performance, even more so than high school grades and standardized test scores.
  • Study motivation and specific study skills have the strongest positive relationships with GPA and course grades, while anxiety negatively impacts performance.
  • Traditional study habit and attitude inventories are highly predictive of success, and overall, these noncognitive factors should be considered a crucial third pillar supporting academic achievement.]
