Abstract

The main purpose of this study is to examine the difference mean among the demographic factor and the student's behaviours in University Malaysia Sabah. Besides, this study also determined the influences of the family members, mass media and the peer group on the student' negative behaviours. There are 80 respondents aged between 19 to 24 years old who have been selected from University Malaysia Sabah to be involved in this survey and 56 respondents are female and the rest are male. The Kruskal-Wallis H test has been conducted to determining the significant mean of rank between the demographic factor and the student's behaviours as the variable of student's behaviour is not normally distributed. The result showed that the student's negative behaviours have the significant differences mean of ranks across the demographic factor. There is no relationship between the student's negative behaviours and the influence of the family members and the peer group when conducting the Spearman Correlation test. The Spearman correlation indicated that the student's behaviours are correlated significantly with the influence of the mass media only.
