Background of the Study
During adolescence, teens become interested and involved in dating because of the desire
to belong with others. As a result, it is clear that over the time, romantic relationships gain in
importance. Adolescents crave to have an intimate romantic relationship to which love is given
and received without restriction. It is according to the need to belong theory by which individuals
have the determination to connect with others in enduring, close relationships. Furthermore, the
theory states that humans “share” the same need to be a part or connected with other individuals,
and claims that all individuals may live life better if they are connected. Myers (2010) supported
the need to belong theory by asserting that people who find a person complimenting their needs
to whom they can share their problems with, makes those people more acknowledgeable.
Belongingness is supported by close, intimate relationship which tends to be healthier and
happier.
Because of this need to belong, we can see nowadays that most university students are
synchronizing their time in both academic and romantic aspect. Engaging themselves in this
romantic relationship enables them to feel that someone cares for them, shows affection to them,
loves them, etc. In fact, Furman (2002) reported that romantic relationships become more and
more significant to adolescents in their social world as they also develop from puberty towards
late adolescence in which it shows how prevalent is romantic relationship among adolescents.
Moreover, some students on the Fort San Pedro National High School have also involved
themselves in a romantic relationship. Having been in an institution which promotes honor and
excellence among its students gave them a great challenge to maintain a good academic
performance. Considering that each professor has higher expectations of the students, an increase
of workloads which includes projects, school papers, reports and challenging exams were given.
Therefore, being college students of FSPNHS gives them more responsibility and it requires a
great amount of time and attention.
Having been in these situations, FSPNHS students who are in a romantic relationship
may be faced with the challenge in maintaining a good academic performance. They have greater
responsibility to do well in their studies since it is the nation which subsidized most of its
students to provide them a quality education.
Consequently, a question on the effect of romantic relationship among the students
involved, whether they can manage their time efficiently or not still remains. Moreover,
determining the vital role of motivation and anxiety in the life of the romantic partners and how
they affect their academic performance still remain a problem.
In order to answer these problems, this study was aimed to determine the effects of
romantic relationship on the academic performance of the Senior High School students of
FSPNHS who are involved in a romantic relationship. In this, status of time management was
investigated as well as the levels of motivation and anxiety of the students. Lastly, this study
aimed to determine if there is a relationship between the time management, levels of motivation
and anxiety and the academic performance of the students.
Theoretical Framework of the Study
This study anchored to the “Need to Belong” theory, needs to belong refers to the idea
that humans have a fundamental motivation to be accepted into relationships with others and to
be a part of social groups. The fact that belongingness is a need means that human beings must
establish and maintain a minimum quantity of enduring relationships. These relationships should
have more positivity than negativity and be meaningful and significant to the relationship
partners. (Baumeister, R. F., & Leary, M. R., 1995).
In addition, Mark Leary and his colleagues created a scale, the Need to Belong Scale, to
measure people’s individual needs for acceptance. People who score high on the Need to Belong
Scale want badly to be accepted into social interactions and react strongly to being excluded.
People who score low on the scale desire fewer close relationships, although again a minimum
number of close ties are important for all human beings.

entering in romantic relationship and gain ideas to focus in their studies in order for them to
achieve a good result for their academic performances.
Teachers. The information that they would get in this study would help them guide and
give proper attention to their students who are involved in romantic relationship so that teachers
could also help in increasing the academic performance of their students not just by teaching
them lessons on the course/subjects they handled.
Parents. The parents will gain some knowledge and help them to be aware on how to act
as a guardian to avoid rebellion of students when they corrected.
Future Researcher. The researcher can use this research by giving them more ideas
about Teenage Early Romantic Relationship of the students.

The study delimits to the students of Fort San Pedro National High School. The
respondents are the students of Fort San Pedro National High School. It is all about the early
romantic relationship of teenager, and affects the academic performance of Fort San Pedro
National High School.

Review of Related Literature
Before going into the main variables of the study, the researchers discuss in the first part
why do adolescents get involve in romantic relationships and how these relationships contribute
in the growth and development of adolescents. In the next part, the researchers talk about the
connection of independent variables in this study such as the romantic relationship which
involves time, motivation and anxiety. These three variables were looked into to determine or to
see if there is relationships exist between romantic relationship the academic performance of
individuals and its effect. In the last part of the chapter, the researchers try to evaluate previous
studies related to the topic of this study.
Humans, particularly adolescents get involve in romantic relationships with variety of
reasons. According to Aristotle, humans are “social animals” which made them long to form an
intimate relationship in which love can be given and received freely which the psychologists
called “the need to belong” (Myers, 2010). Rest assured of the love and care given by the
persons close to them, they are secured with the trust and confidence that they are acceptable to
individuals whom they can depend on for the satisfaction of their needs. Raman (2010) stated
that being in romantic relationship involves physical contact which causes chemical arousal to
the persons involved and at the same time gain love and confidence in which they are longing
for. Koob & Bloom (1982) also explained this by stating that the individuals who are in love
release a number of chemicals within the brain such as oxytocin, vasopressin and endorphins
which cause “short-term” joy and pleasure.
On the other hand, According to Arnet (as cited in Fincham& Cui, 2011) "late
adolescents" is the stage where teenagers experienced how to be totally and socially independent.
This is the time for curiosity & explorations in choosing and having a partner, and explores this
kind of curiosity that somehow leads to romantic relationship. However, this kind of relationship
may not lead to a pleasant and intense love affair. This is just a result of their inquisitive mind
and a sort of finding on how to fit into the world. “What is life all about?” Questions such as
these assume special significance during teenage years, as adolescents seek to find their place in
broader and social world. This quest takes adolescents along several routes. Consequently, “half
of all teens have been in a dating relationship and nearly one third of all teens have been in a
serious relationship” (Teenage Research Unlimited, as cited in Luqman, 2009).
According to Furman (2002), romantic relationships become more and more significant
to adolescents in their social world as they also develop from puberty towards late adolescence.
This shows how prevalent is romantic relationship among adolescents. Luqman (2009) said that
an adolescent relationship plays an important role to adolescents as it develops the ability for
committed relationships. Additionally, Pelt (2004) stated that those relationships help develop
personality. She also added that it is a way of knowing one’s unique qualities of opposite sex and
at the same time choosing the right life partner. Moreover, researchers theorized that romantic
relationship is essential to the development of adolescents in different aspects such as
“transformation of family relationships, close relationships with peers, sexuality, and career
planning” (Furman, 2002).
An article of Barber & Eccles (as cited in Luqman, 2009) talked about the importance of
romantic relationships to adolescent development and its “long lasting” effects on self-
confidence. It affirmed that romantic relationship teaches moral values on romance, “intimate
relationships and sexuality”. In addition to this, healthy romantic relationship could possibly
benefit student’s education (Phelps, 2007). Romantic relationship provides positive outlook of
adolescents’ life which motivates the adolescents in achieving goals such as performing well in
the studies. According to Zulueta & Maglaya (2004), “motivation constitutes the degree of an
individual’s behavior as manifested by his interests, attitudes, and aspirations to satisfy his
desired goal. It is an urge to satisfy goal object” (p. 212). Provided a positive romantic
relationship, adolescents would strive hard on performing well in studies to bring a brighter
future in their relationship. According to Lucas & Curpuz (2007), “quality personal relationships
that provide stability, trust, and caring such as romantic relationships can increase learners’ sense
of belonging, self-respect and self-acceptance, and provide a positive climate for learning” (p.
16) and thus increase academic performance. According to the theory of incentive approach of
motivation, the desirable properties of external stimuli – whether grades, money, affection, food,
or sex – account for person’s motivation.

Moreover, theorists suggested that romantic relationship has a great role in the academic
performance of adolescents. Vgotsky’s theory states that social interaction plays a very important
role in the cognitive development of an individual and could not be understood without looking
into the social and cultural context. Furthermore, Vygotsky’s ideas about “cognitive
development” have become major influences in psychology and education today (Lucas &
Corpuz, 2007). Theorists suggested that romantic relationship has a great role in the academic
performance of adolescents. Parents, peers, and partners, on the other hand, cooperate,
collaborate and enrich the learning experience (Lucas &Corpuz, 2007). In this way, adolescents
who are more knowledgeable can help in the cognitive development of their partner.
However, romantic relationships do not always behave in a positive way. There are
instances in which romantic relationship may harm adolescents and because of this, they need
adults who will guide them in developing healthy relationships (Luqman, 2009). In the same
vein, Connolly & Johnson (cited in Weichold& Barber, 2008) said that even though romantic
relationship plays an important role in the development of an adolescent, most romantic
relationship in the adolescence stage last for only 6 months to 1 year. This situation implies
frequent break-ups which cause anxiety among adolescents. Monroe et. al (as cited in Furman,
2002) affirmed that breakups are mostly the cause of depression among adolescents. Furman
(2002) also states that adolescents are mostly prone to problems in adjustment when they got
involved in romantic relationships at an early stage of their adolescent life. According to Erikson
(as cited in Feldman, 2009) people proceed through eight stages of psychosocial development
across their lives. He suggested that each stage requires the resolution of a crises or conflict and
may produce both positive and negative outcomes. During the identity-versus-role confusion
period an adolescent feels pressure to identify what to do with his life. These pressures come at a
time of major physical changes and adolescent find a period an especially difficult one, thus peer
group and close relationship becomes increasingly important in clarifying their personal
identities. Erikson added that identity- versus-role confusion stage marks a pivotal point in
psychosocial development, paving the way for continued growth and the future development of
personal relationship.
The time spent with the partner would consume much time that must be allotted for
studying; taking into consideration the time management of a student being involved in romantic
relationship affects the academic performance. As stated by Crissey (2006) in her study about
impact of romantic relationship on high school girls, there is really a challenge in "balancing
romantic relationship and academic performance" in a teenager's life. It gives pressure on how to
maintain the romantic side and the academic works as well. She also pointed out that there is
more than the pressure someone will going to feel if there is a competition inside the classroom
for the academic awards at the end of the school year.
Crissey (2006) then added that having a romantic affair especially when you are just a
student would not just give a "source of stress" but also a disturbance. Having a romantic
relationship is really disturbing because a student will deal on managing time between the school
and in the roomantic side that somehow leads to give academic works a lesser priority.
Stress is a continuous feeling of worry about work or personal life that prevents someone
from relaxing. Campbell, as cited by Crissey (2006), pointed out that stress is a condition or
effect that is bad and can cause some problems. For example, students who are having any
romantic affair will have a higher percentage of stress than those who don't have because instead
of focusing to their academic work and academic stresses, they also commit their time to their
relationship. Morris & Maisto (1995) added that anxiety which can be taken from “internal and
external forces” brings about stress. They also described how someone or something frustrates
individuals when it stands between them and their goals. This would cause a dilemma on
“irreconcilable demands, opportunity, needs or goals”. They added that “delays, lack of
resources, losses, failure and discrimination” are the primary cause of aggravation. On the other
situation, negative effects of romantic relationships are very evident in the report of Namaganda
(2009) saying that “developing feelings of love, two weeks before exams can lead to lack of
concentration during the time a learner should be revising and thus failure” (para. 6). Thus,
Gastone Byamugisha (as cited in Namaganda, 2010) a psychologist and lecturer at Kyambogo
University said that heart-break is not the only cause of student’s failure in exams. Moreover,
Furman, Brown & Feiring (1999) stated in their book entitled “The Development of Romantic
Relationships in Adolescence” that romantic relationship at an early age is the cause of higher
rates of drug use, minor delinquency, psychological or behavioral difficulties, as well as lower
levels of academic achievement that those who are not currently involved in a relationship or
who delay romantic activity until later in adolescence.

In conclusion, relationships and academics can’t be joined together. On one side, the
student is spending time with his/her lifelong partner, but on the other side, the student is busy
trying to fulfill other responsibilities in school like making projects, studying, and maintaining
grades. On the other hand, studies about romantic relationship and its effects to academic
performance revealed different results. The study of Luqman (2009) on romantic relationship
and its effects on academic performance, identity and self-esteem of 101 students attending B. Z.
University and 100 students studying 10th grade Educator High School at Department of
Pschology Bahauddin Zakriya University Multan reveals that there is not relationship between
the grade point average and dating status of adolescents. The variables considered were dating
status, level of involvement, grade point average, identity status and self-esteem. However, in his
methodology, he only considered the students’ grade in the latest exam. This would make his
data less accurate because initial level academic performance of the respondents was not
recorded.
The purpose of having an initial level of academic performance is to have a comparison
of before and after situations which will predict whether the academic performance of the
respondent has increased or decreased during the course of romantic relationship. He then
suggested that initial levels of academic achievement of students should be considered in the
future research about romantic relationship and its effects to academic performance to get more
accurate results.
Pham (n.d) studied about the relationships between dating and college performance of
Loyola University students who were aged between 18-24 years old. It was hypothesized that
dating and involvement will result in a lower grade point average. The variables were age,
gender, class standings, dating status and levels together with the academic performance of the
respondents. The data did not allow the rejection of the null hypothesis. It implies that dating and
involvement in romantic relationship shows no significant relationship on academic performance
of college students. Thus, Pham’s study revealed the same result with Luqman’s (2009) study.
Moreover, an investigation on the effect of early parenthood among Bohol Island State
University (BISU) – Candijay Campus female students was conducted by Balaba, Betos,
Galvadores, Felisco&Atupan(2008). There were 25 unmarried mothers which were the
respondents of the study. Average grades of the respondents before and after having a child were
compared and the researchers discovered that academic performance was not significantly
affected by the occurrence of early motherhood. Nevertheless, results of the study showed that
the respondents found it hard to concentrate on their studies because of the problems they met
being early parents. This study relates to the present study because it involves time management,
motivation and anxiety. Early parents were motivated to study to provide a brighter future for
their child.
On the contrary, it is not easy for them to focus on their studies because of the problems
they met as early parents and they find it hard to divide their time between studies and family.
Similarly, Toreon (2011) in his study on the Effect of Romantic Relationship on Teacher
Education Students’ Academic Performance at Bohol Island State University. The study used a
descriptive survey method employing convenience sampling for each year level. The variables of
the study were students’ grade, intensity, level of involvement in a romantic relationship and,
self-esteem. Findings describe significant effect of romantic relationship on academic
performance. Intensity and level of involvement also exhibited a significant relationship on the
students’ academic performance.
It was also found out that a student who is involved in romantic relationship for more
than two years have better score as those involved for 3 to 6 months. It was further found that the
basic characteristic of the individuals who are most successful at love is high self –esteem. It has
been determined that those high in self-esteem experience romantic love more as been found in
the number of years of being attached to each partner. On the other hand, relationship between
dating status and academic achievement on grades 8, 9 and 10 in Santa Clara University in
California were studied by Quatman, Sampson, Robinson and Watson (2001). The result of the
study showed that higher frequency in dating would imply a lower academic performance
because most of the romantic experiences showed higher levels of depressive symptoms and
lower levels in academic motivation. However, this study focuses on younger population. The
results may not be the case in the more mature age group. In another study, a dissertation of
Crissey (2006) focused on the differences of gender on the high school academic outcomes
which were influenced by romantic relationships.
The study found out that when students divided their attention to education and romance,
there was a negative outcome on the academic performance especially when they take too much
concern on their romantic relationships. This situation occurs mostly on girls because of the
“school romantic climate where romance is more valued. On the other hand, the study showed
that boys’ “academic well-being” is being slightly affected. The increased risk of sexual activity
mainly affects this situation (Crissey, 2006).
However, data from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health (as cited in
Allen, 2010) revealed a different result in which males’ academic performance is negatively
affected by the romantic climate. A dissertation of Stefan (2006) which is a qualitative study on
the impact of romantic relationship on the academic performance of high school girls applies
merely on the western culture. Results of the study showed that there is really a “social pressure”
for teenage girls who are involved in dating. She also found out this societal pressure means that
girls are engaged in this kind of dating situation merely “because of some influences peers,
magazines, televisions”, etc. Sometimes, if a girl doesn’t engage herself in dating, some may
considered her as "weird", maybe because in the western society today, there's no more thing
such as Maria Clara's, which refers to those who are a little bit conscious in dating as well as
engaging in romantic relationships. She said that majority of the people would expect girls to
already have a dating partner especially when girls reach into their adolescent stage. She also
added that this dating is usually considered as a threshold or the first step towards romantic
relationships.
After conducting her study, she concluded that dating/romantic relationships have
"negative and positive" outcomes into the academic performance of someone involved – positive
in the sense that dating gives inspiration/motivation for girls to do well in their academic works,
if and only if girls will know how to manage time wisely and properly and that girls will not take
dating seriously. However, it is negative on the other hand because it will just cause
"distraction".
The findings of the study made by Phelps (2007) noted that the influence of partners,
parents and peers of African American Youth to their school achievement. He considered
dividing the samples by race and he found some difference that each variable influence to the
romantic relationship for the Anglo and African American subsamples. He concluded that effects
of academic achievement vary on race. Part of the result of his study is that peers also affect to
the academic performance of the respondents. For the African American, it is their peers’
academic orientation that affects the academic performance while for Anglo Americans, both
peers’ academic orientation and behaviors towards romantic relationship affects their academic
performance. The result of the study of Phelps (2007) implies that factors assumed to affect
academic performance of students such as personal relationships vary in each race. Moreover,
Furman (2002) stated that there has still been a great interest of romantic relationships because
this interest sparks from the observation that these relationships are significant to adolescents’
lives. A lot of research has been made about this topic but most of these studies center on Euro-
American youths or mostly Western societies. Western culture has differences to Asian culture
especially on the social aspects. Example would be perceptions on dating. Western culture has
differences to Asian culture especially on the social aspects. Example would be perceptions on
dating.

Research Design and Methodology
Chapter three presence the type of research design will be used in the study and
methodology implores to answer the problems, it consists of the five parts namely (1) Research
Design, (2) The Sample, (3) The Instruments, (4) Data Collection Procedure and (5) Data
Analysis Procedure.
Part One, Research Design describes the research employed.
Part Two, Participants of the study describes the subject of the study and the sampling
procedure used.
Part Three, Instrument present the data gathering instrument used in the study.
Part Four, Data collection procedure states the procedure used in the study.
Part Five, Data analysis procedure explain the statistical tools used in the study.
Research Design
The researchers implemented the simple descriptive design. This design used survey
questionnaires which were distributed to the respondents in order to attain the main objective of
the study which is to examine the effects of romantic relationships on students’ academic
performance. The survey or the research itself tried to describe, analyze and interpret the status
of the respondents. The design is a non-experimental correlation research. This design
investigated the relationship of the variables without manipulating them. The two main variables
evaluated were academic performance and romantic relationship which involves time
management, levels of motivation and anxiety.
The Sample
The research will be conducted at the Fort San Pedro National High School during the
first semester, academic year 2019-2020 at Sto. Rosario St, Iloilo City. There will be 10
respondents who will take part in the study. The population consisted of Grade 11 Senior High
School students of School who will participate in strictly voluntary basis.
The Instruments
In order to answer specific sub-problems in our study, survey questionnaires will be
distributed to the respondents. Interview to one of our respondents will also be conducted to
confirm the results of the survey. The survey questionnaires will consist of a broad range of
questions aimed at gauging the students’ involvement in romantic relationship and its adverse
effects on their academic achievement. Each questionnaire will have 3 parts. The first part of the
questionnaire will regard the profile of the respondent (i.e., name, gender, average). The second
part will comprise the status of time management of the respondent. The third and fourth part
will consider the levels of motivation and anxiety of the respondent as a student. These two last
parts are in Likert scale form in which respondents will be tasked to indicate whether they
strongly agree, agree, undecided, disagree or strongly disagree in the given statements
Data Collection Procedure
The gathering of data for this study will utilize a self-administered descriptive
questionnaire because it economizes our time and effort and it has the ability to maintain
respondent’s confidentiality.
The respondents will be given survey questionnaires to provide the necessary data needed
in the study. After gathering the data, the researchers will group the responses according to the
sub-problems of the study. An interview to one of the respondents will also be conducted to give
explanation or support to their responses.
Data Analysis Procedure
After which results retrieved, scored and statistically. The data gathered was subjected to
a certain statistical treatment which as follows:
Descriptive Statistics:
Frequency Count – This will be used to determine the number of respondents that fall in
every category
Mean – to find the average of the given question on the questionnaire and to give
measures.
Standard Deviation – This will be used determine the variability or dispersion of a data
set.
Inferential Statistics:
Pearson r – This will be used determine the significant relationship between academic
performance of students and level of anxiety, motivation and time management.
