dc.description.abstract | The study aimed at establishing the association between violence and academic performance of students at Makerere University, Main campus. It was specifically aimed at establishing the relationship between physical and sexual violence, sex, place of residence and participation in strikes and the academic performance of the students. A cross sectional study design was employed together with multiple sampling techniques during the study and a sample of 792 students was used to come up with the findings of the study. Data for the study was collected using an online based questionnaire. A total of 558 students reported low academic performance between 2.00-2.79 and 2.80-3.59. The study found that there is a statistically significant relationship between physical and sexual violence and the academic performance of the University students. It also found that residence in hall is statistically significant in explaining academic performance. | en_US |
