“A students' dormitory” means that all students in a dormitory are very outstanding in learning.In recent years,it has been widely reported by the media.In the other side,it is very common that the learning atmosphere in dormitory is not very good.This resulted in low academic performance throughout the dormitory,this phenomenon is called “roommates effect”.“roommates effect” not only affects daily life in the dormitory,but also affects college students' academic performance.In order to understand the status of contemporary college students' academic level,as well as the impact of “roommate effect” on college students' academic factors,degree and so on,we conducted a survey of undergraduates in four universities in Nanchang.Through a multi-stage random sampling method,collected the first-hand information.It includes the current situation of college students' schoolwork,communication with roommates about learning,influencing factors of “roommate effect” on college students' learning.With statistical data analysis software SPSS18.0 and Excel for finishing analysis,using descriptive analysis,correspondence analysis,chi-square test,independent sample test,factor analysis,multiple regression analysis and other statistical methods,strive to come to an objective survey results.The survey results show that contemporary college students daily learning situation is relatively good.50.82% of college students study for 0-4 hours every day,10% of college students study more than 8 hours every day,and college students pay more attention to self-improvement in learning.60% of respondents said they would communicate with roommates in their studies,73.97% of them said that they could "help each other" by learning and communicating with roommates,42.54% of them think roommates can promote their enthusiasm in learning.There are five main factors that can affect the students' academic performance: "psychological factors","roommate grades","roommate relations","roommate habits" and "roommate communication".College students' own psychological thoughts,the relationship with the roommates,the habits of roommates,living habits,communication with roommates have a certain impact on themselves.Finally,based on the above investigation and analysis of the results.This paper proposes a plan of "2 + 2" or "3 + 3" mode to allocate dorm for schools,to enable students with good academic motivation to drive students with lower academic standards,to develop their good study habits and living habits in daily study life.If the situation allows,schools can dynamically adjust their dormitories to students who have a need for a change of bed after the end of a school year.From the perspective of college students,suggested students think of the roommates as your true friends.This is conducive to roommate relations to a better direction and good with your own learning.Suggested students to take the initiative to develop their own good learning habits and living habits,consciously maintain a positive learning attitude in daily life.
