Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2023, Vol 12, Issue 6

Abstract

Taking responsibility for student leadership is essential in developing students' character and traits. This study aims to investigate the perceptions of students regarding the role of student leaders and the reasons for student leaders joining student organizations. An embedded mixed-method approach was employed to collect and analyze data to identify the reasons for the decline in participation during the last student leadership election at Polytechnic College of Botolan. However, research findings show no difference or correlation among variables, and the study's results through descriptive research design suggest that practical communication abilities are essential for a student leader. It implies that most students need more confidence to speak to or represent their classmates, so they push for those confident enough to assume the role they are afraid to take. Hence, the result of the analyzed data through narrative inquiry states that peer influence is one reason student leaders joined student organizations, along with a personal challenge.
