The aim of this research is to identify the study habits and attitudes of 228 first-grade students in secondary education using the Brown’s and Holtzman’s Survey of Habits and Attitudes. The results indicate that twenty-nine percent of students have low or ineffective study skills. They struggle with reading texts, note-taking, writing reports, and test preparation. This represents an important challenge for teachers and students to overcome school failure and low academic performance. Para que los docentes realicen con éxito su labor de enseñanza es necesario que partan del conocimiento de los hábitos y actitudes hacia el estudio que poseen sus alumnos. El objetivo de esta investigación es identificar hábitos y actitudes hacia el estudio de alumnos del primer grado de educación secundaria, considerando la organización, las técnicas, la motivación y las habilidades. Se aplicó la Encuesta de Hábitos y Actitudes de Brown y Holtzman a 228 estudiantes del turno matutino de la Escuela Secundaria General Federalizada No. 1 “Dr. Norberto Treviño Zapata”. Entre los resultados más destacados se encuentra que 29 % de estos estudiantes cursa su educación secundaria sin hábitos de estudio apropiados. Tienen problemas en la lectura de libros, en tomar apuntes en clase, en escribir informes y en prepararse y tomar exámenes. Los resultados implican una tarea importante para atender tanto por los alumnos como por los docentes, para evitar problemas de reprobación y de bajo rendimiento académico.
