gradually declining virtually on a daily basis due to many variables such as non-implementation
of guidance and counsellingprogrammes which is potent in curbing maladjusted behaviour due
to dwindling resources, irregular inter-house sport competition, gradual declining of end of the
year activities and the likes. It is not an exaggeration to say this is the root cause of antisocial
behaviour among primary school pupils, and by extension, it changes to the exhibition of various
deviant behaviour likes bullying, stealing, fighting, examination malpractices of various forms.
Aside implementation of guidance counselling programme at primary school level, social
activities at that sector should also take a new shape as it used to bein the past and equally foster
unity. All these, if seriously considered in Nigeria primary school system, would obviously
promotes peaceful coexistence and reduce deviant behaviour among school pupils to barest
minimum and eventually leads to usher in new Nigeria of our dream.

dimension in Nigeria. The study investigated psycho-demographic variables influencing examination malpractice
among secondary school students in Oyo metropolis. A sample of two hundred and fifty senior secondary school
students randomly selected participated in the study. The study adopted a descriptive survey research design, and
three validated instruments were used in generating data for the study. Six null hypotheses were set in piloting the
study. Data were analyzed using multiple regression, t-test, and analysis of variance (ANOVA) statistics. There is
significant composite contribution of students’ religion, gender, academic self-efficacy and locus of control to
examination malpractices (R=.427,R2=183, (F(5.243=10.83,p<.05). Academic self-efficacy significantly contributed to
examination malpractices among the students (B=43,t=7.35,p<.05). Based on the findings, professional counsellors in
schools should intensify efforts on how students could beef up their academic self-efficacy through enhanced selfesteem. Education stakeholders should collaborate in orientating students for independent work in the examination
hall.
