SUMMARY OF FINDINGS, CONCLUSIONS, AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Peer pressure is defined as when individuals encourage or pressure you to do
something or refrain from doing something, regardless of whether you want to do it or
not. Peer pressure influence is a more subtle from of peer pressure that involves
modifying one’s conduct to fit other’s perceived expectations. In attempt to evaluate
the experience of the student of USANT Senior High School Department, the following
statement of the problems were made: 1.) What are the effects of Peer pressure to the
Academic Performance of Student?, 2.) What are the advantages or disadvantages of
Peer pressure to you as a students?, 3.) What are the ways to cope with Peer
pressure?
In order to continue the study, the following assumptions we made: 1.)
There different effects to the Academic Performance of the students cause by Peer
pressure, 2.) Peer pressure has advantages and disadvantages to the students, 3.)
There are different ways to cope with Peer pressure which can be improve based on the
findings of the research.
SUMMARY OF FINDINGS
Based on the study’s findings, the following results were
derived: that the students have peers significantly impact their academic
achievement. On the other hand, peer pressure has positive and
negative effects on students performance, depending on how they deal
with and handle the circumstance. What has occurred is that when it
comes to their academic performances, most students gave negative
0
reports on the effects of peer pressure on competent students. Although
they faced various problems, this has been fruitful. Telling the student is
on the verge of being emotionally unstable due to the negative effects of
peer pressure or vice versa as well as it may be a way to prevent any
adverse long-term effects of such, emotionally and mentally.
The researchers then gathered grade 11 students in the age
of 16-17 years old from senior high school at University of Saint
Anthony. They employed the descriptive questions that we ask to
examine the effect of peer pressure on the respondents. This purpose of
the study was to investigate effects Peer pressure on the Academic
Performance of the students. The findings revealed that ten (10) out of
ten (10) students experience being academically pressured. The findings
also shows that there ways to overcome the peer pressure by focusing
on yourself even more, admitting not just to yourself but to someone
who is pressuring you that you are exhausted to follow their high
functional standard and prioritizing what is the possible effect of peer
pressure if you continue experiencing it.
Research also showed that there are positive and negative
effects of being pressure. On the positive side it help you to study more,
lead you to a good result and exert efforts to do better. In results of
negative effects we notice that seven (7) out of ten (10) students
encounter having mental breakdown, losing focus and giving them
distraction.
CONCLUSIONS
1
Peer pressure is the influence of peers on people to follow
their peers by changing their attitudes, value or behavior to conform to
those of the influential group or individual. According to findings, there
is a positive and negative effects of Peer pressure. This means that when
students are under positive Peer pressure, their Academic Performance
improves, such as participating in academic activities, doing homework,
reading and group work. When Peer pressure is bad, academic success
suffers as a results like drinking, smoking and having more free time
leads to academic failure. The researchers discovered a good association
between the student who experienced peer pressure and peer pressure.
As a result, the student and peer pressure were find to be important to
determinants of academic success. The study findings aided our
understanding of the causal linkages between peer pressure, student
and academic accomplishment.
These findings will assist the school in gaining a deeper
undedrstanding of the topic and incorporate it into their academic
curriculum to teach students how to prevent peer pressure. All the
assumptions in this study were effectively examined empirically and
found to be validated, because they were formed based on previous
literatures. This study shows different sides of how students take their
peer pressure and how they would look at their peer surroundings them.
Overall, the study adds to our knowledge of the topic and gives an
empirical evaluation of the study model.
RECOMMENDATIONS
2
With the findings and conclusions previously stated, the
following recommendations were formulated:
1. Stay away or talk to the person who pressures you to do things that
seem wrong or dangerous. Let him/her know how it makes you feel and
tell the person to stop.
2. Pay attention on what will be the effects if you continue to follow

3. School counselors, teachers, and parents should actively participate
and recognize the possible way to prevent and educate the students to
refocus them meaningfully towards excellent academic performance; this
