Abstract

Teenagers are a crucial asset for a country. To ensure that these teenagers are not too complacent and comfortable with all the facilities available, various strategies need to be implemented to prevent the country from running out of skilled and expert workers in the future. This study aims to conduct a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) to collect qualitative data that can provide explanations and views from Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) graduates about their desire to continue their studies at the post-secondary level. The review process includes five main methodological steps, guided by the review protocol, formulating research questions, and a systematic search strategy based on identification, screening, and the qualification of several established databases such as Scopus, Science Direct, Education Resources Information Center (ERIC), and Google Scholar. As a result of the five processes, the researcher selected 30 articles to be studied. Consequently, there are two themes, namely; (1) the factor of wanting to learn and (2) the factor of not wanting to continue studying. From these two big themes, there are 16 sub-themes. For the factor of wanting to study, there are eight sub-themes, and the factor of not wanting to continue studying eight sub-themes.
