The Factors Causing Bad Behaviors Among Pupils at School

The present study aims to investigate the factors that cause disruptive behavior among primary and middle school students, and is conducted with 5th- and 6th-grade students at School No. 26 in the Norin district. The classroom, which should ideally be a haven for social and academic development, is increasingly disrupted by misbehavior ranging from mild inattention to verbal abuse, which poses a serious challenge to effective teaching and learning. This study employed a mixed-method research design to analyze the correlation between teaching styles, digital habits, and peer influence. The main results show that half of the pupils polled relate their own behaviour to the quality of the lesson and the teacher’s rapport, which means that boredom and passive learning environments are the main triggers for the disruption. On the other hand, 40% of students showed higher levels of internal self-discipline, regardless of external factors. The findings underscore the significant need to transition to student-centered, participatory learning methods and increased teacher-student empathy in order to cultivate a more productive and disciplined learning atmosphere.
