        abstract = {This study investigated how social, familial, peer, school, cultural, personal level variables affect the behavioral patterns and academic performance of Paniya tribal students. There were 50 participants, who were part of a screening for inclusion in an in-depth and structured interview from the adjacent Paniya tribal hamlets in Sulthan Bathery Municipality, located in Wayanadu district of Kerala. Purposive sampling strategy was used to recruit the participants for the interviews from the selected Paniya tribal students studying in 8th, 9th, and 10th standard. Results showed that there is significant relationship between the social, familial, peer, school, cultural and personal factors affect the inhibited behavioral patterns and poor academic performance of Paniya tribal students. All variables have significant relationship; however, school and society strongly affected the academic performance of Paniya tribal students.},
