RESEARCH AND METHODOLOGY
This chapter describes the operational plan of work or strategy. A number of activities in
the plan of work include the following operations: a) research design; b) research instruments; c)
data gathering procedures; d) samples and samplings technique; e) research locale; f) statistical
treatment of data.
Research Design
This study used the descriptive method of research. Our general procedure of describing
had the chief purpose of description of the students’ performance in school that might have
affected by their own psychological factors.
Along with the things that we see in a regular pupil of grade six, many students are
struggling in many different ways. Some of them were exposed to emotional abuse being hid to
them, some physical disabilities because of insufficient supply, and some of social factors are
within a child’s journey to his/her learning.
Research Locale
The school we have chosen is the school where the researchers are assigned in their Field
Study (FS) subject. This School is now having the name as Little Baguio Elementary School
situated at Barangay Banganatalinga, Iba, Zambales. It is headed by their Teacher-In-Charge
Mrs. Mari Flo M. Aysip. The said school is a small school only and as perceived in the school, it
has only small population to accommodate.

Location Map
The Respondents
The study will use of ( ) pupils-respondents from Amungan Elementary School , Iba,
Zambales. The respondents are those who are officially enrolled in Grades four to six.

Research Instrument
The questionnaire will be the major instrument used in this study so that we are secure
despondence to certain questions. The questionnaire that was used in this study was designed to
obtain information on the effects of the psychological factors being neglected /despoiled by
others.
Open-minded questions will be use to give the respondents the opportunity to give their
responses and suggestions.
The questionnaire will prepare by the researcher was develop by reading reference
materials and related about the effects of different psychological factors affecting their learning
process.
Data Gathering
The researcher will provide the questionnaires to students who were enrolled in Grade
six level because of their involvement in this study.
The handling of questionnaire will be done personally by the researchers and facilitated
by the retrieval of responses. This procedure also enabled the researcher to conduct interview at
the same time consecutively. The researchers collected the answered questionnaire.
Samples and Sampling Techniques
Purpose sampling will be use in this study so that we could make use of all the data
efficiently. The respondents were selected based on the judgment of who has best qualify in
38
answering the specific questions of the project. Best qualifiers were respondents who are the
customer and possible future customer of Yman's bahay kubo.
Statistical Treatment
To interpret the date effectively, the researcher will employ the following statistical
treatment. The Percentage, Weighted Mean and T-test are the tools use to interpret data.
1. Percentage
This will employ to determine the frequency counts and percentage distribution of
personal related variables of the respondents.
F
Formula: %= ×100
N
% is the percentage
F is the Frequency
N is the total number of respondents
100 is a constant value
2. Average Weighted Mean
This will be use to determine the assessment of the respondents with regards to their
personal profiles.
Fx
Formula: X=
N
X is the weighted mean
F is the frequency
x is the weight of each item
N is the number of cases
39
3. Analysis Of Variance (ANOVA)
This will helpful in making comparison of two or more means which enables a researcher
to draw various results and predictions about two or more sets of data.
Steps in ANOVA
1. First step is to compute the total sum of the squares.
2. Second step is to compute the squares between columns.
3. The third step is to compute for the sum of squares within the column
4. To complete the ANOVA table, calculate the mean of sum of squares.
4. Pearson-r
Likert scale
1. Level of Academic Performance
2. Interpretation table for the psychological factors
