in ethical and moral activities. The sample of the study was 472 students from Asia-Pacific International

International University called System for Administration, Reports, Requests and Academics. Data were
analyzed using One-way ANOVA to examine significant difference between students academic achievement
and their participation in ethical and moral activities. Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient
(Pearsons r) was used to analyze the correlation between students academic achievement and their ethical
and moral activities involvement. The study revealed that there was a statistically significant difference
between students academic achievement and their involvement in ethical and moral activities at a = 0.05. The
findings of the study also revealed that there was also a statistically positive correlation between students
academic achievement and their involvement in ethical and moral activities (r-value = 0.447, p-value = 0.000
at a = 0.01).
