This study examined the psychosocial problems of rape in Ilorin South of Kwara State. A descriptive survey design was employed in the study. The population consisted of parents in Ilorin South of Kwara State, with a sample of two hundred and twenty respondents being selected through a multistage sampling method. A researcher designed instrument tagged ‘Psychosocial Problems of Rape Questionnaire (PPRQ)’ was used to collect data. The instrument was well validated by experts in test and measurement.  Reliability was ascertained through a test retest method which yielded a reliability co-efficient of 0.77. One research question and four hypotheses guided the study. Data was analysed with mean and rank order, t-test and Analysis of variance. Hypotheses were tested at a 0.05 level of significance. Findings revealed that the psychosocial problems of rape include: an inferiority complex, a feeling of being unsafe, a low self-esteem, depression, emotional stress, social withdrawal, among other problems. Findings also showed that age, gender and religion did not influence the respondents or their responses on the problems of rape, while they differed in their responses based on their educational level. Based on the findings, it was recommended as follows: government should set up serious measures to tackle incidences of rape in schools and punish the rapists severely, and schools should, through counselling, educate the students on how to avoid being victims of rape. Schools should also be fenced all round.

Examination anxiety has made students fail their examinations, causing many problems, including depression and suicide. The study aimed to investigate study habit strategies for overcoming examination anxiety as perceived by undergraduate students in Kwara State, Nigeria. The influence of gender, academic level, and age on strategies for handling examination anxiety were also investigated. A descriptive survey was adopted, with a sample of 250 respondents selected through a multistage sampling procedure to participate. Data was collected through Study Habit for overcoming Examination Anxiety Questionnaire (SHEAQ). The instrument was validated by four experts in measurement and has a good reliability coefficient obtained through test re-test. One research question and three hypotheses guided the study. Based on data analysis with t-test and ANOVA, hypothesis 1 was retained, while hypotheses 2 and 3 were rejected. Findings showed that overcoming examination anxiety as perceived by respondents are: reviewing what was taught, having adequate time for study, and testing oneself, among other strategies. Findings also showed no significant difference in the strategies for overcoming examination anxiety based on gender; significant differences were found based on academic level and age. Therefore, students should be counseled on the need to develop good study habits to pass examinations.
