Influence Of Birth Order And Gender On Academic Achievement Of Secondary School Students In Offa Local Government Of Kwara State
Abstract
This study investigates the influence of birth order and gender on academic achievement of secondary students in Offa Local Government of Kwara State. The study became relevant due to the high rate of failure in our secondary schools.
The data were obtained from 150 respondents using the simple random sample technique. In doing this the researcher selected ten (10) secondary school in Offa Local Government Area out of which fifteen (15) respondents were selected schools. While data collected were analysed using t-test and ANOVA Statistical procedure.
The result obtained showed that mistakes of other siblings, inability of the parent to meet the child’s needs, a child’s gender, family problems, playmates and friends among other influences students academic achievement in secondary schools.

Introduction
Background of the Study
Without exception you are one of the followings: the oldest or the youngest or named after some relation who has passed away.
Alfred Adler (2006) said that birth order influences personality. He argued that birth can leave an indelible impression on an individual is style of life, which is one’s habitual way of dealing with the task of friendship love and work. According Adler, Firstborns are “dethroned” when a second child comes along, and this may have a lasting influence on them. Young and only children may be pampered and spoilt which can also affect their later personalities. Birth order can be affected by these, the spacing in years between siblings, the total number of children and the changing circumstances of the parents over time.
Women (2001) see the environment and family as one of the major influences that can affect a child’s academic achievement. Also, through further research other writers like Dennis-Coon and Glean Myers Blairs, R. Stewart Jones and Ray H. Simpson have identified how far birth order and gender can influence students’ academic achievement.
Duntoye (2002), parents with small number of children have enough time and attention for their needs.
Bukoye (2002) emphasized that parents have great influence on their children academic achievement and career aspiration and can definitely convince them to pick after them. The economic strength of parents determines how they can help the child in academic achievement and career in life.
Fatola (2002) emphasized that some emotional problems brought from home can affect learning thereby causing poor academic achievement of students.
First borns and only children acquire quality education (Adams 2000; Ernst and Angst 2001; Travis and Kohu 2002).
Manaster et.al (2002) showed the role of gender and birth order on educational attainment in Japan. Attribution of failure first born males and first born females were more likely than later born males to blame failure lack of effort and circumstances beyond control, whereas other males and females blamed failure on lack effort alone study, it was also shown that grandparents stressed to first born males while they were growing up that they must study properly to avoid bringing shame to the family. This was not stressed to other males nor to females. Language and cultural instruction, firstborn males received at least little training and instructions.
Michael E. Lamb and Brian Sutton Smith (2000) made point that siblings relationship often last an entire life time. They pointed out that life span view proposes that development is continuous which individuals continually adjusting to the competing demands of socialization agent and biological tendencies. Thus, even those concerned only with interactions among young siblings implicitly or explicitly acknowledged that all relationships change over time and that any effects of birth order may be eliminated, reinforced or altered by later experiences.
Walter Tolman (2000) believes brothers and sisters often turn to each other when parents cannot meet all their psychological needs. Thus, a child relationship with brothers and sisters may serve as training ground for adult attitude and relationship. Since there is no one that is an inland the support of siblings is very much needed for the academic achievement of each student and this can come in the area of doing assignments projects etc.
All Part (2003) said that personality is the dynamic organization within the individual of these psychological systems that determine his unique adjustment to his environment. Mostly, the personality position of a child determines to some certain extent what he might become in life. Birth order or ordinal position can leave a lasting imprint on adult personality.
Belmont and Marolla (2001) emphasized that birth order effects can be stated only as broad patterns. Being first or later born child does not mean that your personality will fit the preceding descriptions. Countless factors including the number of children in a family, age difference, age of parents can modify birth order effects. Nevertheless, when large samples of people are considered birth order and gender effects typically emerge,
Alao (2008) in explaining how the family atmosphere affects a child’s value and sex roles, he explained that family constellation and methods of upbringing or child-rearing practices affects a child’s academic achievement. He claimed that parents have a paramount role in the children is life. According to him, the complex relationships of the child with the mother, father and other siblings in the family affect the development of character and mental health. It thus becomes very imperative to study a situation where his claim does not operate in relationship to mental health and academic achievement of such children.
Related or relevant studies have been done by Olisa (2001) Ogunlade (2002) Ogundele (1989) and Nwachukwu (1998) on the influence of family background variables on the academic achievement of students in secondary schools.
Ezewu (2004) explained that the practice of leaving children under the care of paid workers in recent in the Nigeria culture, rather these children are given to extended family members by their biological parents for upkeep or upbringing.
It is a common practice in Nigerian society to see parents giving out their children to other family members for upkeep care and nature. Many of these children so given out face diverse problems as they grow and develop especially those who are of school going ages one of the such problems could hinder their academic achievement and thus need to provide counselling services to such children especially those in secondary schools.
The need for proper study of these students’ academic achievement and their home background is imperative so as to identify their academic problems or achievement level and counselling needs as applicable.
Ezewu (2006) stated that the various family systems, monogamy, polygamy, polygyny or polyandry have their children rearing patterns based on the influence of the social set up under which a particular system is being used. In Nigeria, for instance, a family given out his children to extended family members in contrast to the nuclear types of the western of developed world where adoption is rampant. He (Ezewu), believed that a child can therefore be fostered in extended family homes of grand-mothers/fathers, aunts etc. for various reasons, such reasons can be social economic, cultural or other considered exigencies of life. It is concern of this study to relate, where necessary, such fostered or non-fostered students to their academic achievement with its attendant problems and counselling needs.
Adefila (2005) in her study of child rearing practices among the Ibo and Yoruba people in Nigeria found that Nigerian parents desire to have many children. As in any other African societies, family solidarity is a passion among Nigerians. She discovered that no matter where the family might level, where in the city or the smallest village, the extended family tradition is carried on.
Inference from this may suggest that children given to these family members for upkeeping and blood relationship intact without much concern for what happens to such children.
Ezewu (2006) asserted that a child, if he enjoys the affection of both parents, he will quite likely grow up to be a good adult members of the society, the word likely here posses a controversy. It shows that the author realize the effect of environmental influences on the child whether reared within the biological parents home or elsewhere. It affords, therefore am bivalence in the growth or the personality of the child. This study tends to show such environment influences on the child whether fostered or not, in relation to its academic achievement and counselling needs.
Claire (2002) realizing the vital impotence of family contract on a child said that we are by nature gregarious animals and we suffer real deprivation, physical and intellectual as well as emotional, if we lack contact with.
Thus, providing adequate family and adequate amount of contact with other people is an essential part of good child care. What Claire is saying is that family contact is very essential for the overall development of the child’s personality. Hence, there is the need for both parents to jointly bring up the child. What happens to jointly bring up the child. What happens to fostered and non-fostered students/children in relationship to their academic achievement and counselling needs becomes an issue or question for this research to answer.
Alao (2008) explained how the family atmosphere can affect a child’s personality. He argued that the life style or personality of the individual evolves from a combination of family atmosphere and value, sex role, family constellation and methods of child rearing.
He postulated that parents have a paramount role to play in children’s behaviour and usually play an important role, in the social emotional intellectual and personality development of their children.
Alao summarized his thought and said that the complex relationships of the child with the mother, father and other siblings in the family affect the development of character and mental health. Where the situation descri1bed above is lacking suggests a problem for the child especially if he/she is fostered.
Mallum (2007) stated that whatever methods parents (especially mothers) use to bring up a child have effect on the latter development of the child. Mallum believes that parents (especially mothers) have child-rearing patterns to bring up the child right from the moment of conception to the time when the child leaves the primary school at say age twelve years. To him, the method and pattern whether hostile or warmth will to a large extent affect the child in later life. A child that is shown warmth and affection will grow to be more confidents; independent and achieve. On the other hand, a child that lacks all the warmth especially if on foster may likely not progress adequately well in later life endeavour especially academic.
Statement of the Problem
The influence of birth order and gender on academic achievement cannot be over-emphasised; this has been proved by various research works which were conducted by past researchers.
Alao (2008) stated that family atmosphere affects a child’s value and sex roles and explains that family constellation and method of upbringing or child rearing practices affect a child’s academic achievement.
The researcher intends to pick secondary school in Offa Local Government Area of Kwara State. The project intends to investigate if there is any influence of a child position in the family as well as the influence of his gender on his academic achievement.
Various problems contribute to students’ academic achievement: the influence of birth order and gender are of great concern to the researcher.
Related and relevant studies have been done by Alfred Adler (2006), Women (2001) Belmont and Marolla (2001), Walter Tolman (2000), Fatola (2002) and Michael .E. Lamb and Brian Sutton Smith (2000) on the influence of birth order and gender on students academic achievement of students in some secondary schools. The study found out that birth order and gender can influence academic achievement.

Purpose of the Study
The purpose of this study is to investigate the influence of birth order and gender on the academic achievement of secondary school students in Offa Kwara State.
The study intends to find out if variables gender, age, marital status, years of experience and religion will have a difference in the perception of respondents on the influence of birth order and gender on students academic achievement.
Significance of the Study
This research work is significant because it would be beneficial to parents, teachers, guardians, counsellors, foster parents, social welfare worker, psychologist, curriculum planners, or education planners’ society, as well as executors and education operators. The study will reveal useful information to these aforementioned groups and insight to how to manage such situation. It will enable counsellors handle cases emanating from students having known their birth order and gender as they perform or achieve poorly in school. It will give the counsellors, the counselling strategies or approaches in placement classification, referral etc. in handling such students and cases in school.
This study will help the education planners to plan curriculum such that it will accommodate the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement in secondary schools in the Local Government under study. Educational executors like teachers would have knowledge on how to deal students better in enhancing better academic achievement. The teachers will be able to device means to sustain and improve the students and their teaching effectively; taking care of the problems behaviour in academic achievement of these students.
This research will as well guide educators and counsellors to know the influence of birth order and gender on academic achievement and the counselling needs of students. It will enable education planners and operators to know more about educational policies. It will enable them to know has effectively they can cater for students in planning and executing educational policy programme respectively.
The research will enlighten parents who have excessive interest in a particular gender to know that no gender is important or superior than the other.
The result gathered will serve as a source of information for the teachers and curriculum planners in the field of education. Also, the counsellor, teacher’s psychologist’s parents and other stakeholders in the planning of curriculum it will help them to combat the problems facing the academic achievement of students in schools.
In our contemporary world, especially our immediate environment which is Nigeria, the rate of academic failure is been alarming and has affected the majority of the students leaving them unachieved or underachieved. Hence, the need to critically consider factors that is influencing their academic achievement either positively or negatively, if we want a better future career for these students.
The study will provide helpful background information to other researchers that would like to investigate further into this area.
Operational Definition of Terms
For the purpose of this study and clarification, certain terms are defined below as they are used in this study to bring out their meaning as they apply to the present study.
Academic Achievement:
The level of proficiency attained in scholastic or academic work. This attainment can be either low or high. Low academic achievement is that performance that falls above specified standard.
The standard is known as pass – mark which is arbitrary and with different definitions. That is it is a performance that or dictates the pass-mark.
Ogundele (2000) refers to academic achievement as a measure of how much an individual has accomplished after he/she might have undergone a course of instruction or training. To him, it may be measured, in the school setting by the total score of the students in relation to the total score of the students in relation to the class test or examination.
Ebegbulen (2004) see academic test as what is designed to measure how much an individual has accomplished in a course of instruction or training. He goes further to state that test given by teachers to measure achievement of a child is academic test. Other examples of academic test are the West Africa Senior Certificate Examination (WASSCE) the National Examination Council (NECO) end of year and terminal examinations. All these measure to a great extent the academic achievement of students exposed to training or course of instruction.
Tunaka (2003) stated that the type of family in which a child grows influences his/her performance both in academic and behavioural terms. His ascertain was supported values, and behaviours of their children (even in their teens) is in general and supreme. Academic achievement is better understood when described as a kin to attainment of level of proficiency after an instruction from a specific curriculum (Tumaka 2001). Thus, a person can be said to have performed or achieved high or low after an examination based on the received instruction during a course of study.
Birth Order: It can as well be referred to as ordinal position. Birth order is defined as a person’s rank by age among his or her siblings. Birth order often believed to have a profound and lasting effect psychological development. Birth order continues to have a strong presence in pop psychology and popular culture. Birth order refers to actual order in which child was born, that is, first, second third tenth eleventh and so on.
Gender:
It is a range of characteristics used to distinguish between males and females particularly in the case of men and women and masculine and feminine attributes assigned to them. According to Breff (1999) and Riley (2007). Gender refers to the different role that men and women play in society, Moser, (2003) emphasized that gender roles are reflected ion virtually every social institutions including schools and health care systems. Gender has a powerful influence on academic achievement and behaviour.
Gender Discrimination:
It is known as sex discrimination, is the practice of sexual discrimination, is the practice of letting a person’s sex unfairly become a factor when deciding who receives best education or goes to school. In an educational setting there could be claims that a student was excluded from an educational institution, program, opportunity, loan student group, or scholarship due to their gender. In housing setting there could be claims that a person was refused negotiations on seeking a house contracting/leasing a house or getting a loan based on their gender. Another setting where there have been claims of gender discrimination is banking; for example if one is refused credit or is offered unequal loan term based on one’s gender. Another setting where there is usually gender discrimination is when one is refused to extend their credit, refused approval of burden of unequal loan terms based on one’s gender.
Scope of the Study
The scope of this study is secondary school students in Offa Local Government of Kwara State. This school is taken as the research setting, because it is the place where genders are corrected. In other words, it is a place where birth order and gender can be found in large number.

Discussion, Conclusion and Recommendations
Introduction
The purpose of this study was to investigate the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement as perceived by secondary school students in Offa Local Government Area of Kwara State. Two hundred (200) respondents were involved in the conduct of the study. An instrument tagged “Influence of Birth Order and Gender on Academic Performance Questionnaire (IBDGAPQ) was used to collect the required data for the investigation with respect to gender, age, marital status, year of experience and religion. Five null hypotheses were formulated and tested in the course of this study. This chapter, therefore, contains the discussion of findings, conclusion, implications of the findings, recommendations and suggestion for further studies.
Discussion of Findings
The analysis of responses to the twenty items revealed that item 8 was ranked 1st. This item stated that mistakes of other sibling can influence the child’s academic achievement. This agrees with the finding of Spauta and Paulson (1995) who found out the correlation between mistakes of other siblings and students’ academic achievement and performance. Also Iacovou (2001) found out the similar finding in his study of birth order and students’ academic achievement in Gboko, Benue State. In his study, he found out the positive relationship between birth order and students’ academic performance and achievement.
Item 19 which stated that inability of the parent to meet the ch1ild’s needs can influence his/her academic performance was ranked 2nd. This agrees with the finding of Rutteer, Moffilt and Caspi, (2006) who found that socio-economic status forms a huge part of determining factors of child’s academic achievement and performance. According to them children raised in poverty rarely choose to behave differently, but they are faced daily with overwhelming challenges that affluent children never have to confront, and their brains have adapted to suboptimal conditions in ways that undermine good school performance.
Item 1 which stated that child’s gender can influence his academic achievement in school is ranked 3rd. most studies show that, on average girls do better in school than boys. Girls get higher grades and complete high school at a higher rate compared to boys (Jacobs, 2002). Standardized achievement tests also show that females are better at spelling and perform better on tests of literacy, writing and general knowledge (National Center for Education Statistics, 2003).
Item 6 which stated that lack of guidance from elderly siblings can influence the child’s academic performance is ranked 4th. This agrees with the finding of Uba (1989) who found out that lack of guidance from the elderly sibling causes poor academic performance among the secondary school students. This is because, the oldest child is usually advantaged by a good deal of attention and birth during the early stage on age of life, which he entertains all alone (Uba, 1989). Therefore, he should guide his sibling in achieving sound academic achievement and performance in school.
Item 14 which stated that family problem can influence the child’s academic performance is ranked 5th. This finding is in line with the finding of Leoma (1982) who found out that parental neglect, separation and divorce negatively affect students’ academic achievement and performance. According to him, relationship of birth order and creativity, first borns and configurations of oldest and only children are significantly more creative on verbal test of creativity than later born. This, according to him, is as a result of family problems.
On the other hand, item 18 which stated calories intake of the child can influence his/her academic achievement is ranked 19th. This implies that it, is the least factor influencing students academic performance. This finding is not in line the finding of Heller (2008) who found that students reporting increased diet quality were significantly less likely to fail the literacy assessment. Relative to students in the lowest DQI – I fertile, students in the second and third fertile were 26 percent and 41 percent less likely to fail. In particular, students with an increased fruit and vegetable intake of fat were significantly less likely to fail the assessment. Dietary fat intake was also demonstrated as important to academic performance (Michelle, 2008).
This is closely followed by item 20 which stated that misplacement of priority of the child can affect his/her academic achievement. This, according to this study, is another least factor influencing students’ academic performance. This finding is in line with the finding of Nwafor and Ango (1988) who, found no correlation between misplacement of priority of the child and academic achievement. However, Tenibiaje (2002) found a correlation between misplacement of priority of the child and academic performance and achievement in his study.
Danbonyi (2002) stated that, it is better for a researcher to discuss his/her findings on the basis of each hypothesis. Thus, the present study presents the results of each null hypothesis tested while conducting the investigation. The t-test and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) statistics were adopted to analyse the hypotheses.
Hypothesis one stated that there is no significant difference in the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement as perceived by respondents on the basis of gender. The result of the analysis revealed that the hypothesis was accepted, that is, there was no significant difference in the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement as perceived by respondents on the basis of gender. This agrees with the finding of Spears (1982) who found no relationship between gender and academic performance. However, Jacob’s (2002) finding disagrees with this. According to Jacobs (2002), there is a correlation between gender and academic performance.
Hypothesis two stated that there is no significant difference in the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement on the basis of age. The result of the analysis revealed that the hypothesis was accepted. This implies that there is no significant difference in the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement on the basis of age. This finding disagrees with the finding of Spears (1982) who found a correlation between age of a child and intelligence in his study. However, Powell and Steelman (1993) and Van Ejick and DeGraa’s (1995) finding support this present finding. They found no relationship between a child’s age and intelligence in their study.
Hypothesis three stated that there is no significant difference in the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement as perceived by respondents on the basis of marital status. The results of the analysis revealed that a null hypothesis was accepted. Thus, there was no significant difference in the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement as perceived by respondents on the basis of marital status. This finding is supported by the finding of Booth and Kee (2008) who found no correlation between marital status and students’ academic performance.
Hypothesis four stated that there is no significant difference in the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement as perceived by respondents on the basis of years of experience. The results of the analysis revealed that a null hypothesis was accepted. Thus, there was no significant difference in the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement as perceived by respondents on the basis years of experience. This finding is in line with the finding of Kessler (1991) and Olneck and Bills (1979) who found no correlation between years and experience and students’ academic performance and achievement.
Hypothesis five stated that there is no significant difference in the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement as perceived by respondents on the basis of religion. The result of the analysis shows that the null hypothesis is accepted. This shows that there is no significant difference in the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement as perceived by respondents on the basis of religion. This is in line with the finding of Behrman and Taubman (1986). Hauser and Sewell (1985); Zajonc and Markus (1975) who found no correlation between religion and academic performance.
Conclusion
Based on the results of the various analysis in the study, the study came up with the following conclusion:
Factors that influence students’ academic performance and achievement are mistakes of other sibling, inability of the parent to meet the needs of their children; gender and birth order. Lack of guidance from older siblings and parental separation and neglect. Also, the findings revealed that there were no significant relationship in the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement as perceived by respondent on the basis of gender age, marital status, year of experience and religion.
Implications of the Findings
The counselling implication of this study is that family size and family birth order are fundamental in academic success. Parents should maintain high commitment, for optimal range for academic success because the number of children in the family and family birth order will help in interactions, supports and financial assistance.
Also, this study will equip the counsellors with various factors influencing students’ academic performance and achievement. This will assist in their counselling processes.
Recommendations
Based on the findings of this, study, it could therefore be recommended that:
- Parents should be adequately informed about the effects or consequences of family problems such as parental neglect, parental separation, divorce and domestic violent on children’s academic achievement and performance. This should be done by the school counsellors.
- Parents should always provide all their children’s academic needs such as textbooks and other basic needs. By doing so, the children will perform wonderfully well in schools. Parents should be properly enlightened by the school counsellors on the importance of providing all the basic needs of students.
- School counsellors should educate the parents on the effects of family size and birth order on students’ academic achievement and performance. This orientation will help in enhancing the academic achievement and performance of secondary school students.
Suggestions for Further Studies
This study was limited to investigating the influence of birth order and gender on students’ academic achievement in secondary school in Offa Local Government Area of Kwara State. Subsequent studies may consider the following areas:
- The influence of family size on the students’ academic performance in Offa Local Government Area of Kwara State.
- The influence of family dysfunctionalities on the students’ academic performance in Offa Local Government Area of Kwara State.
- The influence of poverty on the students’ academic performance in Offa Local Government Area of Kwara State.
- The influence of student alcohol consumption on students academic performance and achievement in Offa Local Government Area of Kwara State.
