This study examined the impact of mobile‐based mentoring, socio‐economic background and religion on girl's attitude and belief towards ASB in Ibadan Oyo State Nigeria. The study adopted a mixed method research design. The participants in the study comprised forty (40) students purposively selected from Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. The platform (www.gcmentoringinitiative.org) was adopted for mobile‐based mentoring. One research question was raised and three null hypotheses were tested in the study at.05 level of significance. Data were analysed using content analysis for Focus Group Discussion, Analysis of Covariance and Estimated Marginal Means. The results reveal a significant main effect of socio‐economic background on girl's attitude towards ASB. Also, there was no significant impact of mobile‐based mentoring on girl's attitude towards ASB. Based on the findings, using mobiles in mentoring girls could significantly reinforce or change their belief in engaging in antisocial activities. Also, the socio‐economic background plays a significant role in determining the attitude and belief of girls in engaging in antisocial activities. Girls' religion has little or no effect on their belief and attitude towards antisocial behaviours (ASB). Girls from low‐income family are susceptible to engage in ASB, while those from wealthy homes are less likely to engage in ASB. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
