CHAPTER 3

METHODOLOGY

This chapter presents the research design, sample of the

study, data instrument, collection of data and statistical treatment

of data.

RESEARCH DESIGN

The study lies on the descriptive survey method. As Glass

and Hopkins defined it, it is a collection of quantitative information

that can be tabulated along a continuum in numerical form such as

scores on a test or the number of times a person chooses to use a

certain feature of multimedia program, or it can describe

categories of information such as gender or patterns of interaction

when using technology in a group situation. It gathers data that

describes events and then organizes, tabulates, depicts, and

describes data colllection.

The descriptive method was used to utilize the effects of

Handog-Kaibigan Scholarship Program to its scholars in Grade 11

ABM-01A to 04A student facilitators of Senior High School at

PHINMA UPang, Dagupan City.

the effects of Handog-Kaibigan Scholarship Program to its Scholars

in Grade 11 ABM-01A to 04A student facilitators of Senior High

School at PHINMA UPang,Dagupan City. The information gathered

served as the bases for data interpretation of this study.

the adviser.

TREATMENT OF DATA

To be able to come up with a definite conclusion with regards to

answer the statement number 1 determining the highest

percentage of cases collected and the following profile

variable, namely

a) Name b) gender c) total number of hours of duty per

week.
FORMULA:

P= F/N X 100

Where:

P= percentage

F=frequency

N= no. of cases

100= constant value

2) For the level of effectiveness of the Handog-Kaibigan

Scholarship Program to its faacilitator scholars in Grade 11

ABM 01A-04A Class of PHINMA Upang Senior High School

F3= number of repondents who answered “Agree”

F2= number of respondents who answered “Disagree”

F1=number of respondents who answered “Strongly Disagree”

WM= 4F4+3F3+2F2+1F1/N
The following scale was used to interpret the obtained weighted

mean:

Scale Descriptive Equivalent
