Students' behavior is influenced by a range of factors including cultural background, gender, and the expectations of their teachers and peers. These elements influence how students are perceived for their behavior, which impacts their social and academic growth. Understanding the complex interactions between these factors is critical for creating inclusive learning environments and promoting positive student outcomes. Therefore, educators and policymakers must recognize the significance of these dynamics to ensure that educational institutions remain effective and equitable for all students.
