A sample size of 464, that is 20 percent of the population was used for the study. A descriptive survey design was used in the study. The instrument used in collecting data for the study was the Self-Assessment study Inventory with a reliability coefficient of 0.56. Seven null hypotheses were formulated and tested at 0.05 level of significance.
