Abstract

The study to be conducted in the paper will be based on the relationship between aggression and academic performance of the secondary schools students in rural and urban Bahraich district. Adolescence is a sensitive stage of the development with emotional ups and downs and behavioral changes and can influence the school performance of the learners. The present research will examine the aggression level among the secondary school students, the aggression trend between a student in a rural and urban school as well as to determine the impact of aggression on the academic performance. A descriptive survey technique was utilized in the study. The stratified ways of random sampling assisted to pick a representative sample of the secondary school student at the chosen rural and urban schools in Bahraich. The aggression level was assessed with the use of a standardized tool and the performance of student with the help of the existing examination marks of students. Statistical methods were employed in the analysis of the data such as mean, standard deviation and t-test. This has demonstrated that the degree of aggression was found to differ significantly between the rural and urban students as well as demonstrated the negative connection between agitation and academic achievements. The more aggressive students had a fairly low performance in education. The paper gives the need to utilize school-based counseling programs, emotional control, and a supportive learning environment to enhance the behavior adaptation and educational success of the learners.
