NNMC 2020 Annual Student Research Symposium

How does college students' lifestyle affect academic performance?

Presenter: Angela A. Cordova

Poster Description: The aim of this study is to examine if there is a link between a student’s lifestyle and their academic performance. First, I want to clarify how the student’s lifestyle choices such as using drugs, alcohol, not eating healthy, not exercising, or other factors such as family support will affect how well they do in college. Secondly, and if it does have some affect, to what degree those factors may affect their studies and performance in college. The overall goal is to reveal if the factors have great impact on the college student. To gain knowledge a questionnaire was distributed to selected college students at Northern New Mexico College.

Keywords: academic performance, college students, stress, and well-being
