environment. It explains that the performance of a student is supported by their study environment. However, some vital factors that are key to academic excellence, such as the inherent ability and pre- disposition of some students to work harder than others, have not been considered. It also fails to explain why students subjected to similar environment register varying levels of academic performance (Beatty et al, 2010). c) Methodological Review Faizan Abd Jabar, Wan Kalthom Yahya, Zaidatulhusna Mohd Isnanil, Zurah Abu (2012) conducted an empirical study toward students' academic performance and students' residential status in UiTM Jengka. The method used a self-administrated questionnaire that comprise of three parts; Part A: Demographic background, Part B: Student’s Academic Performance and Part C: Option of residential. It also included seven items measured on a 4-point Likert scale in Part B to determine the difference of academic performance between residence and non- residence students among UiTM Pahang students. The hard copies of the questionnaires were distributed in the classroom to 245 students from part 5 and 6 from the Faculty of Business Management. The part 5 and 6 students were chosen as the respondents since they are assumed to have an enough experience being residence and non-residence students. Descriptive analysis using SPSS version 20 was performed to analyze the collected data. This research was conducted to evaluate the satisfaction of students’ living environment between on- Campus and Off-Campus Settings by Muslim, M., Karim, H., Abdullah, I. (2012). This paper seeks to determine the differences of living satisfaction aspects between on-campus and off-campus indicators relevant to student housing and to ascertain how these factors of living satisfaction are being formed. It draws on the findings from this study which involved content analysis methods. This study involves both qualitative and quantitative description in the analysis. Content analysis Content analysis is a research technique for the objective, systematic, and quantitative description of the manifest content of communication. The content analysis technique attempts to characterize the meanings in a given body of discourse in a systematic and quantitative fashion (Kaplan, 1943). Thematic analysis is the most common approach in content analysis. In thematic analysis, the coding scheme is based on categories designed to capture the dominant themes in text. Owolabi (2015) on the study of the effects of Students’ Housing on Academic Performance at the University of Ibadan in Nigeria collected data from primary source. Primary data was based on 1,100 respondents. Systematic sampling technique was employed for selection of rooms and random sampling technique was also employed for the selection of four hundred respondents within the rooms in on-campus housing (8,000 on-campus students), while seven hundred respondents of off-campus housing were randomly selected for both off-campus hostel and private houses (14,000 off campus students) occupied by students for the study (5% of on and off- campus students were selected). Two sets of research questionnaires were administered and one hypothesis was tested at the 0.05 level of significance. Data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics and chi-square. Ogwuche and Pinga (2017) carried out a study to assess the influence of off-campus residence on students’ academic performance in tertiary institutions in Benin state of Nigeria. The study was carried out in Benue State of Nigeria. Benue State is one of the 36 states located in the North Central part of Nigeria with its headquarters in Makurdi. The major tribes in the area are Tiv, Idoma and Igede. Other tribes are Agatu, Etulo, Jukum, Igbo, Hausa and Yoruba among others. The study adopted descriptive survey design. The population comprised 9, 872 final year students in nine public tertiary institutions in Benue State (Benue State Ministry of Education, 2016). A sample of 400 final year students’ representing 4% in three tertiary institutions was selected using stratified random sampling technique. This sample was considered adequate since it is in line with Anchor and performance in tertiary institutions. Cluster B contained 10 items on influence of inadequate use of school facilities by off-campus residence on students’ academic performance in tertiary institutions. Responses were based on a 4-point rating scale with the response modes of Strongly Agree (SA)=4, Agree (A)=3, Disagree (D)=2 and Strongly Disagree (SD)=1. The questionnaire was validated by three experts, two in educational management and one in test and measurement from the Faculty of Education, Benue State University, Makurdi. The questionnaire was trial-tested using 30 final year students who were not part of the sample but part of the population. The reliability of the instrument was measured using Cronbach Alpha which yielded a reliability coefficient of 0.79. This indicated high internal consistency. The data collected were analyzed using mean scores and standard deviation to answer the research questions. Any item with less than 2.50 was rejected as having no influence. On the other hand, it was accepted if it was 2.50 and above. Chi-square test of goodness-of-fit was used to test the null hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. In a study which assessed the residence pattern among students in private universities in Nigeria, using Oduduwa University, Ipetumodu as a case study by Adama, Aghimien and Fabunmi (2017). The study adopts a quantitative survey approach, using random The Effects of Students' Housing on Academic Performance at the University of Ibadan in Nigeria 62 Global Journal of Management and Business Research Volume XXII Issue IV Version I Year 2022 ( ) B © 2022 Global Journals
