In analyzing the gathered data, frequency count, mean, percentage and T-test were employed. The factors influencing the students' study habits were: time management, motivation, peer relations, stress, obvious distractions, teaching styles of educators, school activities, cram tendency, and leisure of students. Time management is the most influencing factor, while the factors influencing the students' academic performance were: time management, motivation, peer relations, stress, teaching styles of educators, school activities, learning strategy, cram tendency, and leisure of students, wherein time management is the most influencing. Obvious change in GPA of the students was noticed, from 88.69 to 87.68. In determining the study habits in terms of time management of the students before and during the four-day work week schedule, there were also obvious changes, like their time devoted to studying and time devoted to internet surfing. It decreased during the four-day work week schedule.
Though all of the variables were somewhat correlated with each other, the four-day work week schedule only had a significant effect on two variables. The four-day work week schedule had a high significant effect on the academic performance of the students and on their time devoted to studying. It had a significant effect on their time devoted to internet surfing while it had no significant effect on the students' time devoted to library works.
