Abstract:
This study aimed to investigate the effect of ambient factors on the academic performance of selected Bachelor of Science in Office Administration students at Taguig City University. Employing a descriptive research design, it sought to examine the relationship between students’ academic performance and their learning environment. Data were collected from 343 respondents through survey questionnaires and analyzed using statistical tools such as frequency and percentage distribution, weighted mean, and chi-square tests. The findings led to the rejection of the null hypothesis, confirming a significant relationship between academic performance and the academic environment. Results revealed that the physical environment, including factors such as cleanliness, organization, ventilation, lighting, and availability of classroom resources, plays a crucial role in enhancing students’ concentration and productivity. Students indicated that a clean, well-organized, and adequately equipped classroom setting promotes a more positive and effective learning experience. Moreover, the psychosocial environment was identified as another essential factor influencing academic success. Supportive relationships with peers and instructors were found to boost student engagement, motivation, and confidence, creating a sense of belonging and academic encouragement. Overall, the study highlights that both the physical and psychosocial aspects of the learning environment significantly affect students’ academic outcomes. It suggests that institutions should prioritize creating conducive learning spaces and nurturing healthy social interactions among students and faculty to maximize academic Performance and overall well-being. These findings underscore the importance of holistic environmental management in higher education settings.
