• Effects of Depression, Aggression, and Self-Concept on the Academic Achievement of University StudentsThe main goal of this study was to measure how depressed, aggressive, and positive students felt about themselves. It also looked for possible links between these traits and how well students did in school. Many students have problems with their mental health because of the different pressures they face as they try to get a better education. There is probably a link in the opposite direction between the worries stated and how well the kids do in school. Some of the most common mental illnesses are depression, violent habits, and low self-esteem. A descriptive and comparative research design was used for this work. People who were registered as students at different universities made up the study group. Students made up the study sample. Researchers in two different countries gave four surveys to students to find out how depressed, angry, confident in themselves, and good at school they were. In all cases, the alpha coefficient was between 0.72 and 0.84, which shows that it met acceptable limits. After the information was collected, it was looked at using both descriptive and inferential statistics. With a rate of 43%, the number of university students who were depressed was found to be pretty high. Still, it's important to note that a large number of people in the group, 1 out of every 12, said they had experienced symptoms of severe depression. But it is interesting to note that most students in both countries did about the same amount of work. The results also showed a link between how depressed, angry, and good they felt about themselves a student was and how well they did in school. The analysis, however, showed that there was no statistically significant link between student hostility and academic success. The study also wanted to find out if there was a statistically significant difference between how students felt about sadness, anger, and their own sense of self. People have said that universities should work on getting rid of the stigma around mental illness and behavioral disorders, with a focus on getting affected students to get help as soon as possible to stop their symptoms from getting worse and turning into more serious conditions.
