Analysis of Data
 14

Data analysis in qualitative research is and ongoing iterative process

were data is continuously collected and analyzed almost simultaneously.

Indeed researcher generally analyze for patterns in observations through the

entire data collection phase (Savenye, Robinson, 2004).

An essential component of ensuring data integrity is the accurate and

appropriate analysis of research findings. Improper statistical analyses distort

scientific findings, mislead casual readers (Shepard, 2002), and may

negatively influence the public perception of research. Integrity issues are just

as relevant to analysis of non-statistical data as well.

After collecting our data. There are two themes emerge. The

distractions and the happiness.

DISTRACTION

Students said that online gaming is a distraction because they can’t do

their jobs that must be their priorities. Distraction is a dangerous wandering

from singular attention that could lead to sin or even madness (Philips, 2016).

Other authors said distraction as an excellent quality of mind, aligning the

multiplicity of divided focus with the spontaneous creation of new thought.

Distractions affect the way people learn, making the knowledge they gain

harder to use later on (Russell, 2006).

Roger said,

(Before, my experience is I can’t manage my time, also I can’t eat at exact

time and I can’t sleep well at night. I can’t concentrate to the class, and I can’t
study well because I always thinking about the game and I feel asleep in the
class. Because of this you can’t learn, and your mind is not in the class.
Sometimes I can’t do the jobs that my parents told me, then I forget to eat and
I go away to play the game)
Roger experiencing that being addict to online can games can distract to your

studies. Also in you don’t have enough time to rest. Distractions affect the way

people learn, making the knowledge they gain harder to use later on (Russell,

2006).

Lance said,

Kanang naka-experience ko sa una ug, kanang dili nako mokaon unya

magbilar na unya pagkabuntag na sad dula na sad.Parehas ng dili na nako
matrabaho ang akong trabahuon sa balay kay sig ra ug dula unya dugay na
kayo sugoon. Usahay mag sige na lang ko ug huna-huna ug dula during sa
klase ug di maminaw sa teacher nad naapektohan judt akong grado.
(I experience before, I can’t eat and I can’t sleep at night and then in the
morning I will play again. Also I can’t do my job in the house because I always
facing my phone and playing the game. And also I always thinking about the
game during class hours and I won’t listen to my teachers that’s why my
grades are also affected)
Lance experience made his grades decrease and his focus to learn in the

school are gone because of being addict to online games particularly in

Mobile Legends.

Prince said,

Okay raman sya. Usahay maglisod sa mga buhatonon sa skwelahan wala na

kaayuy time sa pag buhat sa mga project. Kay dili naka ka focus sa imong
pag study or pag skwela kay sigi nalang kag dula wa nay time sa pag skwela.
Tudluan ang studyante ug tama nga pag gasto sa oras. Ug pwede sad
hadlokon ang mga estudyante. Makaapekto ang pagdula ug mga online
games sa ilang pag skwela. Kay nay usahay mas matagaan pa nilag oras ang
pag dula kaysa sa pag Skwela.

(For me, it’s okay. But sometimes I have difficulties in doing my projects and I
do not have enough time to do it. You can’t focus to your studies or you can’t
go to school because you are always playing the game and you don’t have
 18

enough time. They must teach the students on how to manage their time
properly. And we can threatened them that it can affect their education for
always playing online games. Because of they can give a time for playing than
studying)
Prince said that being addicted to online games is a distraction when you are

still in educational days and you can’t focus to your task and projects to the

school.

Tom said,

Ahmm… Kuan… Katong sauna… Katong summer pa nga wa pay klase mga
tag alas dose nako sa udto mo mata. Alas dose, Alas unsi pinakasayo na
nang alas 10 unya usahay di nako ka pamahaw kay alas dose na gudt mo

nga ala una sa kadlawon mao nang cge ko ug kasaban…. Kuan to sauna
nanambok, ay …hehehe… Kuan…di ko katarung ug tulog.
(Uhmm… Uhmm… Before… During summer I woke up in 12 o’clock at noon.
12:00 PM, 11, 10:00 AM is my earliest time to wake up and sometimes I’ve
forgotten to eat my breakfast because of waking up in 12 o’clock in noon…
Hehehehe…2:00 PM that’s the time I’ll take my lunch… When the time hits at
1:00 AM that’s the time that I’ll go to sleep. That’s why my parents always
scolded me…Before I was getting fatter… Uhmmm No!! Heheheh … Uhmmm
I can’t sleep well)
The experience of Tom is he always skipped a meal in each day and he can’t

sleep well. And because of was he doing him always scolded by his parents.

Happiness
Some of students are happy to play online games and it gives

entertainment to their lives. Most of us probably don’t believe we need a

formal definition of happiness; we know it when we feel it, and we often use

the term to describe a range of positive emotions, including joy, pride,

contentment, and gratitude.

Jerry said,

Para sa akoa ang experience sa akong pagdula ng online games pareho sa

mobile legends, kay…. Kanang…kuan siya kanang nagahatag siya sa akoa
 19

ug lingaw pero usahay ang epekto sa akoa kay dili nako kabuhat sa akoang
buluhaton sa eskwelahan.
(For my experience the time I play online games like mobile
legends...Because… it is giving me entertainment but sometimes the effect is
I forgot the assignment or task in the school)
Jerry said that sometimes playing online games is fun but because too much

of fun you can forget your task in the school.

Happiness

Some of students are happy to play online games and it gives

entertainment to their lives. Most of us probably don’t believe we need a

formal definition of happiness; we know it when we feel it, and we often use

the term to describe a range of positive emotions, including joy, pride,

contentment, and gratitude. Berkeley’s (2007)

Roger said,

Impluwensya sa barkada, mga dula nga nindot.Ang online games

makahimo siya sa pagpalipay sa studyante, makapawala sa problema, sama
sa mga buluhaton sa eskwelahan. Dili man tanan dula makaadik naa rana sa
nagdula pero kung makadula man gud ka anang mga online games, lisod na
biyaan.

(Influenced by friends, that game has a good quality. The online games
makes them entertained, can remove your problems, like the task of the
school. And not all the games are addictive it depends on the player but if you
play some of play online games, it’s hard to get away from it)
Roger said that every game makes you entertained, you may become

addicted because of the game. It depends on the player, on how he/she

manage their time and their self.

Lance said,

Inig dula nimo malingaw man gud ka unya hangtod nga mag sigi
nalang ka ug dula. Para sa akoa maka lingaw man siya pero ug mapalabihan
pudt nimo ug dula di nasad maayo. Malingaw man gud ka labi na ug daghan
ka ug kasabay lingaw judt kaayu, mao nang dali raka maadik.

(If you play you the game it gives you fun until you become addicted to
the game. For me it is so entertainment but if you over use playing the game
and you can’t control yourself it is not good. It is fun if you have a friends to
join your game it is so fun, that’s why you had easily to be addicted.
 22

Lance said the more friends to join the game, the more fun you get and

the more you spent time to play, the more addictivities.

Prince said,
Siguro sa kanindot sa dula. Kay Kung nindot man gudt ang dula.
Malingaw kag taman, halos dili ka mapul an ug dinula. Maka pahatag siya ug
kalipay sa akoa. Sama sa akong giingon ganiha. Tungod sa kanindot sa dula.

(I think it is because of the good quality of the game. If the game have
a good quality. It gives you fun, almost they don’t stop playing it. And it can
give happiness to me. Like I said later, because of the good quality of the
game.
Prince said that if the game have a good quality the game more be so

addictive. And you can’t stop playing of it, and it can give happiness to the

players

Stress Reliever

Some of the player makes the game a stress reliever and just to

remove their problems. Stress relievers can help restore calm and serenity to

your chaotic life. You don’t have to invest a lot of time or thought into stress

relievers. If your stress is getting out of control and you need quick relief, try

one of these tips. Staff (2019)

 23

Tom said,

Ahm… Kanang nahimo silang adik tungod makalingaw man gud siya,
tapos para sa akoa pampawala siya sa akong stress, human na adik sila
tungod mas gina una man nila ang dula, mao nang usahay dili sila kakaon ug
dili katulog tungod adik na niing maong dula.

(Ahm… That they are addicted because it can entertain, for me it can
relieve all of my stress, and then they become addicted because they priority
is playing the game, Sometimes player can’t eat their meal and can’t sleep
well because of the addictive game)

The statement of Tom if you get addicted, it becomes stress reliever for

you and sometimes you’ll forget to eat your meal because the priority was the

playing

Jealousy

The reason why other students be addicted because of the curiosity or

jealousy. All the emotions humans shows, jealousy is one of the most

common and unsetting. It tends to bring out the worst in us, even though most

of us know better. It’s an age-old problem, having been recorded since biblical

times, and no doubt experienced even before that. And it’s not limited to

humans, either. Even wild animals like chimpanzees and elephants exhibit

jealous tendencies.

Hoyt (2008)

Jerry said,

Hinungdan guro ana kay…ahm… kay ang dula trending kayo…human

kanang … kuan kay… ang hinungdan ana nila kay na ibog sila anang kuan…
nasuya sila anang ubang studyante ba, gwapo kayo iyang graphics, lami kayo
dulaan, mao na ang hinungdan

(The reason of that is… because the game is so trending ….after

that…the reason of them is getting jealous… they get jealous of other
students, because of the graphics, and nice to play with, that’s what the
reason is.)
 24

Jerry said because of the jealousy, they would like to play the game too

and get addicted.

After collecting our data. There are two themes emerge. The distractions and

the happiness.

Trending
 25

This is the reason why the students wants to play the trending games.

They don’t wanna get behind. A general or prevailing tendency or course, as

of events, a discussion, etc. Harcourt (2010)

Roger said,

Ambot Kung naa ba pero tungod sa online games makasabay ka sa

mga tao, unya dili kay ka problemado kay tungod sa dula.

(I don’t know if there’s something I get in playing online games. But

because of the online games you can join to the others, and you are not
problematic because of the game.)

Roger said that playing online games is can lessen your problems. And

you make fun for the others.

Habit

Other students playing online games is become their habits just to

have fun and entertained. Habit refers to an act repeated so often by an

individual that it has become automatic with him. Practice also implies the

regular repetition of an act but does not suggest that it is automatic. Harcourt

(2010)

Lance said,

Para sa akoa naa siyay benepisyo pareho anang mahatagan ka niya

ug lingaw or mahimong nimo siyang habit, pero naa pud siyay mga dili
maayong side like mahimo kang adik sa iyaha.

(For me there’s a benefits like it can give happiness or it becomes your

habit, but there’s have a bad side like you have been addicted to the game.

Lance said there’s benefits that you can get first it can give you

happiness or it becomes your habit. And he said there’s a bad side on it.
 26

Kanang inig wala kay lingaw. Makahatag syag kalipay sa imo. Ug

pampalipas oras nalang sad

(When you are bored. It can give fun for you. And it can be your
leisure.)

Lance said playing online games can entertained you.

Inspiration

Other students make their inspiration to play. Just have for fun and get

away from problem. In a culture obsessed with measuring talent and ability,

we often overlook the important role of inspiration. Inspiration awakens us to

new possibilities by allowing us to transcend our ordinary experiences and

limitations.

Tom said,

Naa… Daghan ang benepisyo anang online games tungod ana

makatuon ko maka-adto ko ug laing lugar … Kuan to kanang mahasa akoang
skill sa pagdula… Alertness, Awareness mao na to.

(Yes… there’s many benefits in online game because I learned how to

travel in some places. And it can develop my skill…Alertness and Awareness
skill that’s all.)

Tom said there’s a benefits that they can get because they can travel in

different places. And meet some players in other place and have a

development of skill.

Jerry said,

I relate nimo ang imong kinabuhi sa dula. Pareha sa ML. lisod sya nga
dula, pero maningkamot gihapon ka para mo daog. Sa imong kinabuhi, bisan
unsa pan aka lisod ang imong mga maagian dapat maning kamot ka para
makab-ot imong kadaugan.

(I relate the game to the reality. Like in ML. it’s hard to play, but you’ll
try to your best just to win the game. In the reality, no matter how difficult your
journeys you must try to win.)
 27

Jerry said the rule of playing online games and in to the reality is the

same because in reality you have to success in life.
