Abstract	This study examines the relationship between study habits, academic attitudes, and achievement motivation among adolescent students in CBSE schools in India. Utilizing educational psychology and motivation theory, the research explores how structured learning behaviors and students' learning perceptions impact academic drive. A descriptive survey methodology was adopted involving 200 students (100 boys and 100 girls) from Classes 6 to 8 at Angels Planet School, Khandwa, Madhya Pradesh. Instruments used include the Academic Motivation Scale (Deo & Mohan) and the Study Habits and Attitude Scale (C.P. Mathur). Statistical analysis revealed a significant positive correlation (r = 0.62, p < 0.01) between study habits and achievement motivation. Girls scored slightly higher in achievement motivation, underscoring gender dynamics in academic engagement. Findings highlight the need for gender-sensitive pedagogical interventions and the integration of structured study skills into the curriculum.
