CHAPTER 1

THE PROBLEM AND ITS SCOPE

Introduction

“Academic intelligence has little to do with emotional life. The brightest among us

can founder on the shoals of unbridled passions and unruly impulses; people with high

IQs can be stunningly poor pilots of their private lives.” (Goleman, 1995) Over the past

years, the mainstream focus has been on student’s cognitive abilities and their predictive

validity on academic achievement. However, everyone in this world has emotions.

Emotions are strong feeling such as love, anger, joy, hate, or fear. Emotions are important

for us to handle new and demanding circumstances properly and rationally.

Emotional Intelligence is an ability to understand and adopt our emotions when

dealing with new and difficult situations. It is a kind of social intelligence that includes the

ability to monitor one’s and other’s emotions, to discriminate among them, and to use the

information to guide one’s thinking and actions (Salovey & Mayer, 1993).

David Caruso stressed the importance of emotional intelligence to humanity. He

argued that emotional intelligence is not the opposite of intelligence. Emotional

intelligence is not the triumph of heart over head but a unique intersection of both.

Despite his good argument, traditionally, in education, emotions have been thought

to be peripheral to the learning process. Recent research (Bance & Acopio, 2016),

however, has begun to indicate that Emotional Intelligence (EI) is a necessary component

of any educational community. The study highlights the potential implications of emotional

intelligence in educational progress and academic success.


High School Students are exposed to different situations that will have an impact

with their emotions. They may encounter different situations like family problem, peer

pressure, bullying, romantic relationships, and many others. These situations that can

trigger emotions may affect their academic performance.

In line with Deped K-12 Curriculum, we choose to examine the relationship of the

emotional intelligence of the senior high school students with their academic performance

to know if there is an association between the variables. It is anticipated that higher

emotional intelligence will play a positive role in academic performance in schoolwork.

Theoretical Background

Even before the conception of modern psychology, the constructs and theories

about emotional intelligence has sparkled curiosity in the entire humanity for generations.

Research studies are rooted in the known theories of exemplary people to help us

underpin the knowledge-base and connection of each study to the humanity and the

world. Emotional intelligence is linked with Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple

Intelligence and Daniel Goleman’s Theory of Emotional Intelligence.

Howard Gardner’s Theory of Multiple Intelligences (1983). Among the most

influential theorists of intelligence to point out the distinction between intellectual and

emotional capacities was Howard Gardner, a Harvard psychologist, who in 1983

proposed a widely regarded model of multiple intelligence. His list of seven kinds of

intelligence included not just the familiar verbal and math abilities, but also two "personal"

varieties: knowing one's inner world and social adeptness. In addition to the standard

cognitive abilities like mathematical reasoning and verbal fluency, Gardner proposed that
there are “personal intelligences”, one for managing oneself and another for handling

relationships which form the foundation for most of the models created on Emotional

Intelligence. In a nutshell, those intelligences are the following ones:

1. Intrapersonal intelligence: the ability to understand yourself and identify the

emotions including stress and willingness.

2. Interpersonal intelligence: the ability to perceive and understand the intentions,

motivation and desire of other individuals.

Daniel Goleman’s Theory of Emotional Intelligence. Daniel Goleman (1995)

defined Emotional intelligence as the “capacity to recognize our own feelings and those

of others, and manage our emotions and relationships.” Emotional Intelligence

Competence Framework is divided into two parts – Personal Competence and Social

Competence. Personal Competence determine how we manage ourselves which

includes the following dimensions:

1. Self-Awareness – knowing ne’ internal states, preferences, resources and

intuitions.

2. Self-Regulation – managing one’s internal states, impules and resources.

3. Motivation – emotional tendencies that guide or facilitate reaching goals.

On the other hand, Social Competence determine how we handle relationships involving

the following dimensions:

1. Empathy – awareness of other’s feelings, needs and concerns.

2. Social skills – adeptness at inducing desirable responses in others.


Legal Bases

The Philippines, in its aim to provide quality education to every citizen of our

country, promulgated laws which ensure that education is accessible to all.

Article XIV, Section 1 of the 1987 Philippine Constitution states that: “The state

shall protect and promote the rights of all the citizens to quality education at all levels and

shall take appropriate steps to make such education accessible to all.”

Furthermore, the Presidential Decree 603, “The Child and Youth Welfare Code”

specifies the following:

Article 1: Declaration of Policy states that

“The child is one of the most important assets of the nation. Every effort should be

exerted to promote his welfare and enhance his opportunities for a useful and happy life.”

“The child is not a mere creature of the State. Hence, his individual traits and

aptitudes should be cultivated to the utmost in so far as they do not conflict with the

general welfare.”

Article 3: Rights of the Child

“Every child has the right to a wholesome family life that will provide him with love,

care and understanding, guidance and counseling, and moral and material security.”

“Every child has the right to a well-rounded development of his personality to the

end that he may become a happy, useful and active member of the society.”

Article 12: Education

“The schools and other entities engaged in non-formal education shall assist the

parents in providing the best education for the child.”


Article 13: Social and Emotional Growth

“Steps shall be taken to ensure the child’s healthy social and emotional growth.

This shall be undertaken by the home in collaboration with the schools and other agencies

engaged in the promotion of the child welfare.”

On the other hand, pursuant to DepEd Order No. 8. S. 2015, the K to 12 Basic

Education Program implements classroom assessment, an integral part of curriculum

implementation, to allow the teachers to keep track and measure the leaner’s progress

and developing abilities while enabling them to take full responsibility in the process.

It is also relevant to note that according to Batas Pambansa Bilang 232, also known

as “Education Act of 1982”. Section 15, one of the duties and responsibilities of students

is to “exert utmost effort to develop his/her potentials for service in order that he may

become an asset to his family and society”.

In addition, Republic Act 9155 or the Governance of Basic Education Act of 2001

provides the General Goals of Basic Education, one f which is to develop Filipino leaners

by providing them basic competencies in literacy and numeracy. It further develops critical

thinking and learning skills and desirable values to become caring, self-reliant, productive,

socially aware, patriotic and responsible citizens.

These legal documents served as the foundational support in determining the link

between academic achievement and emotional intelligence.


Related Literature

Rational and emotional parts of the brain are deemed complementary to each other. The

foregoing literature have shown emphasis on the association of emotional intelligence

and academic success. The scholarly works provided in this section were adopted from

renowned authors and their intellectual contributions in the world of academics were

explored to substantiate the present study.

Emotional Intelligence. Mayer and Salovey, the men who first introduced emotional

intelligence, defined emotional intelligence as the ability to perceive emotions, to access

and generate emotions so as to assist thought, to understand emotions and emotional

knowledge, and to reflectively regulate emotions so as to promote emotional and

intellectual growth (Salovey & Mayer, 2004). According to Daniel Goleman, emotional

intelligence includes “abilities such as being able to motivate oneself and persist in the

face of frustrations; to control impulse and delay gratification; to regulate one's moods

and keep distress from swamping the ability to think; to empathize and to hope”. In our

study, emotional intelligence is expanded into five domains: Emotional Awareness,

Emotional Management, Social Emotional Awareness and Relationship Management.

Emotional Awareness. This domain is about “knowing one’s emotions” (Goleman,

1995). This is a foundational skill which involves recognizing one’s feelings as it happens.

It is knowing what we’re feeling and why we’re feeling it which is a basis of a good intuition,

decision making and moral compass. It is generally an internal process of getting to know

yourself as you really are. It includes being aware of the full range of your feelings, both

positive and negative.


Emotional Management. This is about managing one’s emotions which involves

handling it in effective ways so it won’t get in the way of what you’re doing. It happens

when you act or do not act upon being aware of your emotions. It is your ability to use

your emotional awareness to choose what you say and do. “Handling feelings so they are

appropriate is an ability that builds on self-awareness” (Goleman, 1995). You can only

choose how to respond to an emotion when you are aware of it.

Social Emotional Awareness. This is centered on your ability to recognize and

understand the emotions of others. It is considered a fundamental “people skill”

(Goleman, 1995). It is your ability to accurately pick up on emotions in other people and

understand what is really going on with them. This often means perceiving what other

people are thinking and feeling even if you do not feel the same way. “Instead of looking

inward to learn about and understand yourself, social awareness is looking outward to

learn about and appreciate others.”

Relationship Management. This domain often taps into your abilities in the first three

emotional intelligence domains: Emotional Awareness, Emotional Management, and

Social Emotional Awareness. This is your ability to use the awareness of your own

emotions and those of others to manage interactions successfully. Being able to manage

emotions in someone else is the art of handling relationships. (Goleman, 1995). This

includes deepening the connections and the bond you build with others over time.

Academic Performance. Academic success is the outcome of education – the degree

to which a student has achieved his educational aspirations. Success on academic aspect

is usually measured by assessments and examinations. However, there is no universal


agreement on how it is best evaluated or which aspects are considered of great relevance

– skills or knowledge. (Kumari 2014)

In the Philippines, the adaptation of DepEd Order No. 8 s. 2015 served as the

fundamental guide in the assessment of academic performance of the students.

Assessment in the K to 12 Basic Education Program recognizes the diversity of learners

in the classrooms and the need for varied ways of assessing different learning potentials

and abilities.

Students’ progress is assessed in relation to the different learning standards and

competencies stipulated in the K to 12 curriculum. This is done by classroom assessment

– a process of identifying, gathering, organizing and interpreting quantitative and

qualitative information about what learners know and can do. The assessment may be

conducted individually or collaboratively using formative or summative way which is

composed of Written Work, Performance Tasks and Quarterly Assessments. Students are

graded on these three components every quarter with specific percentage weights

according to the nature of the learning area.

For Senior High School students, the average of the Quarterly Grades produces

the Semestral Final Grade. The General Average is computed by dividing the sum of all

Semestral Final Grades by the total number of learning areas. Academic performance is

interpreted using the scale below:

Grading Scale Description Symbol


90-100 Outstanding O
85-89 Very Satisfactory VS

Related Studies

The study of Ghada Mohamed Hassan Hamouda and Elham Abdullah Helmi Al

Nagshabandi titled “The Perception of Emotional Intelligence Self-Assessment Among

Nursing Students” used the tool Emotional Intelligence Self- Assessment questionnaire

by Paul Mohapel. The questionnaire has 40 items, grouped into 4 main dimensions. The

four dimensions were Emotional Awareness, Emotional Management, Emotional Social

Management, and Relationship Management, each dimension has 10 items. The study

revealed that the students can reduce the effect of stress and cope up with their academic

performance if emotional intelligence is enhanced. (Ghanda, M., & Elham, A. 2018)

“Exploring Emotional Intelligence and Academic Performance of Filipino University

Academic Achievers “is the study researched by Lucila O. Bance from the University of

Santo Tomas and John Ray B. Acopio of Mapua Institute of Technology. It shows that

students who have possessed high emotional intelligence perform better in their

academic studies. Students who are both academic achievers and scores high in

emotional intelligence skills can easily adapt to their environment, cope up with problems,

and can establish good relationship with others. (Bance, L., & Acopio, J. 2016)

Huge interest was given to emotional intelligence because of its integration to the

academic performance among learners. A study titled “Scrutinizing the Relationship

between Emotional Intelligence and Academic Performance in Foreign Language

Learning” aims to elaborate the relationship of emotional intelligence to academic

performance. The result of the study suggests that there is a significant relationship with

emotional intelligence and academic performance. The teachers are encouraged to


inform students of the importance of emotional intelligence to their academic

performance. (Mehdiabadi, F., Arabmofrad, A., & Fard, S. 2016)

A study conducted in Karachi Pakistan, Pakistan by Syeda Razia Bukhari and

Sarwat Khanam “Trait Emotional Intelligence as a Predictor of Academic Performance in

University Students”. The study concluded the positive significance of emotional

intelligence as predictor to academic performance of both male and female university

students. (Bukhari, S. & Khanam, S. 2016)

Nursing students’ emotional intelligence and leadership skills in relation to their

academic performance was explored. The study titled “Exploring Emotional Intelligence

and Authentic Leadership in Relation to Academic Achievement Among nursing students”.

Students who voluntarily participated in the study were one hundred twenty one in total.

Twenty two of the participants were male and the remaining ninety nine were female. The

study concludes that emotional intelligence and authentic leadership has no effect on

nursing students’ academic performance but it can develop interpersonal skills that will

be useful in their field of work.

Emotional Intelligence is a skill that can be developed through training. To know if

this is true one research study titled “Investigating the effect of emotional intelligence

education on baccalaureate nursing students' emotional intelligence scores” was

conducted. The study concluded that there was no effect of the Emotional Intelligence

program in relation to the students’ skills due to several factors. The study encouraged

to make more research about how to acquire emotional intelligence skills. (Orak, R. J.,

Farahani, M. A., Kelishami, F. G., Seyedfatemi, N., Banihashemi, S., & Havaei, F. 2016).
There was a study conducted to know the relationship of emotional intelligence

and performance of secondary school teachers. The title of the said study was

“Emotional intelligence: impact on post-secondary academic achievement”. The

statistical conclusion of the study was that there is a relationship of secondary school

teachers emotional intelligence and performance. (Garg, R., Levin, E., & Tremblay, L.

2016). Thus, if the teachers are high level in emotional intelligence they will have a

more positive performance.

Emotional Intelligence Training is very important to include in the curriculum. A

study done in Pakistan concluded that to produce a competent student emotional

intelligence training should be part of the business curriculum. (Sania, Z. M., & Shahid,

S. 2016) The title of the study is “Effect of emotional intelligence on academic

performance among business students in Pakistan”.

“The Role of Trait Emotional Intelligence in Academic Performance: Theoretical

Overview and Empirical Update” is the title of the study researched by Harsha Perera

in Provincetown, United States. The article concluded that there should be a further

study regarding the relationship of Emotional Intelligence to Academic Performance.

(Perera, H. N. 2016).

A result in a study shows that emotional intelligence of student’s is related to

his/her school work. (Hegarty, N., & Angelidis, J. 2015). The title of the study is “The

Impact of Academic Service Learning as a Teaching Method and its Effect on Emotional

Intelligence” conducted by Niall Hegarty and John Angelidis. Thus, emotional

intelligence play a big role in the students school activity which leads to academic

performance.

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Design

This study is a quantitative research using a descriptive method. This will describe

systematically the facts and characteristics of a given population or area of interest,

factually, and accurately. (Soliven, 2001) To determine the respondent’s profile and level

of emotional intelligence, the study used a descriptive survey questionnaire. A modified

tool entitled “The Quick Emotional Intelligence Self-Assessment Tool” by Paul Mohapel

(2015) was utilized. Documentary analysis was used in gathering the respondent’s

academic performance (1st Quarter grade-point average).

Environment

Rizal High School is located in the Municipality of Batuan. It was founded in year

2008 and one of the three secondary public schools in the said municipality specifically

located in Rizal, Batuan, Bohol. It is situated 8 kilometers from the town proper and 43.8

kilometers away from Tagbilaran City. It can be reached through any forms of land

transportation vehicles. The school offers Junior High School and Senior High School

which consist of 1 school head, 16 teaching staff, 1 administrative clerk, and a student

population of 280 for the school year 2019-2020.


Figure 2 Location Map of Rizal High School at Rizal, Batuan, Bohol

Respondents

The respondents of this study were the Senior High School students of Rizal High

School for the academic year 2019-2020. Below is the table that shows the distribution of

respondents who agreed to take part of the study among the grade levels.

Table 1.
Respondents of the Study
Year Level Respondents Percentage
Grade 11 25 41%
Grade 12 36 59%
Total 61 100%
Instruments

To measure respondent’s emotional intelligence, the study will use a modified

questionnaire entitled “The Quick Emotional Intelligence Self-Assessment Tool” from San

Diego College MESA Program by Paul Mohapel (2015), a neuroscience professor and a

PhD in Psychology. Emotional Intelligence is assessed in four (4) domains: Emotional

Awareness, Emotional Management, Social Emotional Awareness and Relationship

Management. Each domain includes ten (10) item-statements structured in the form of

Likert scales as follows: 4 = Always, 3 = Sometimes, 2 = Rarely, 1 = Never. The scale

is interpreted in the following manner:

Numerical Value Respond Category Description


4 Always The condition is constantly encountered.
3 Sometimes The condition is occasionally encountered.
2 Rarely The condition is slightly encountered.
1 Never The condition is not encountered.

Scores will be totalled in each domain to assess the respondent’s strengths and
areas for improvement. The table below shows the key to interpret the respondent’s
emotional intelligence for each domain:

Data Gathering Procedure

Phase 1: Preliminary

Before the conduct of the study, the researchers asked permission from the Vice

President of Academics, Dean of Graduate School and School In-Charge of Rizal High

School. Upon approval, the researchers will arrange with the teachers to schedule the

conduct of the study.

Phase 2. Conduct of Research

On the schedules date, the researcher will discuss the objectives and purpose of the

study to the respondents. The researchers will provide a standardized questionnaire

(patterned from “The Quick Emotional Intelligence Self-Assessment Tool” by Dr. Paul

Mohapel, 2015) to the respondents. Items are explained and the respondents are given

enough time to answer. All test sessions took place inside the school, scheduled in a time

slot convenient to the respondents. The assessments were conducted with clear

instructions, supervision and support.

Phase 3. Retrieval

After the distribution, the questionnaire will be retrieved. The data gathered are tailed,

consolidated and treated with appropriate statistical treatment. Results of the study will

be analyzed and interpreted to test the hypotheses.


Ethical Consideration

To ensure that the “do no harm” principle will be followed with the conduct of the study,

this research will go through an ethics review by the University of Bohol Ethics Review

Committee. The researcher will write a letter to parents to get consent for his/her child to

participate in the study. The researcher also writes a letter to the child respondent and let

him/her sign the Assent Form that he/she agreed to his/her parent’s consent. Moreover,

the researcher will inform the respondents of their rights and will give them assurance

that utmost confidentiality and anonymity is a priority in this study.


Statistical Treatment

In analysis and interpretation of data, the following were used:

Percentage

To establish the profile of the respondents in terms of sex, age, year level, and

section.

Weighted Mean

The technique is used to measure the central tendency where some values are

given importance over others. For statistical purposes, the responses on the emotional

intelligence of students, were categorized as always, sometimes, rarely and never with

weight equivalents of 4, 3, 2, 1.

Chi- Square

To determine the relationships between the student’s profile and academic

performance and emotional intelligence, the Chi-square formula test was employed.

The result of the chi-square was compared against the critical value at 0.05 level

of significance.

Chi-square was also utilized to determine the correlation between emotional

intelligence and academic performance since the data was not normally distributed.
Mann-Whitney Test

Since research data is not normally distributed, this non-parametric formula was

used to determine the significant degree of variance on the level of emotional intelligence

among the profile of the respondents. This was conducted using SPSS.
CHAPTER 2

PRESENTATION, ANALYSIS, AND INTERPRETATION OF DATA

This chapter presents the analysis and interpretation of data in terms of the

respondent’s profile, academic performance and emotional intelligence.

The data gathered were tailed and presented in tabulated and textual form to

analyze and interpret in the light of the relationship and differences that exists among the

variables as posed in this study. During the cleaning of data, some respondents were

excluded because it did not meet the criteria of answering some of the major variables.

Respondents 6, 21, 27 and 58 were removed. Also, eight respondents weren’t able to

participate in the conduct of the study due to absence. Out of the seventy-three senior

high school students, only sixty-one became part of the data analysis and interpretation.

PROFILE OF THE RESPONDENTS

RECOMMENDATIONS

Students should be able to develop or acquire emotional intelligence skills to be

able to keep up with their academic performance. The result of the study highly

recommend teachers to use teaching strategies that can enhance and improve the

strategies like group play can enhance student’s ability to adapt their moods to the given
situations or scenarios. It can also enhance their emotional management skills because

it will help them confer their ideas with each other. The same study is highly recommended

with much larger participants to further prove that there is a relationship between

emotional intelligence and academic performance among students.
