Abstract:
This study dealt with the learning behavior as a predictor of Mathematics achievement among the generation Z learners of Mawab District. Determining the influence of learning behavior on the mathematics achievement of Generation Z learners of Mawab District is the essential objective of the study, utilizing quantitative—nonexperimental design applying the causal effect technique with regression analysis with a total of 281 respondents among senior high school students of the four secondary schools of Mawab district. The measurable instruments utilized in this study were the Mean, Pearson r, and the Multiple Regression Analysis. Results showed a very high level of learning behavior as a predictor of the mathematics achievement among the generation Z learners of Mawab district in competence motivation, attitude towards learning, attention, and flexibility. Moreover, the Mathematics achievement and the learning behavior of Generation Z learners of the Mawab district have a significant relationship. Also, all the domains of learning behavior significantly influence Mathematics achievement. Thus, the better the learning behavior a learner has toward a subject or undertaking, the higher the accomplishment or execution level in Mathematics.
