Abstract

population sample in the study included 200 Adult Education students from University of Ilorin. Descriptive statistics of mean was used to answer research question while the hypotheses were tested using a Linear Multiple Regression to test the hypotheses at 0.05 level of significance. Result showed that there was a significant correlation between social interactions (i.e. lecturer-students, students-students and students-parent interactions) and adult education students’ study habit. Thus, we recommended in the study that Adult education lecturers should establish good working relationship with their students based on understanding love and genuine concern for the academic success of the students. Parents should always have a friendly inter-personal relationship with their wards so as to foster their wards’ study habit in schools.
