SMART SHAMING TO SELECTED GRADE 11 STEM STUDENTS OF IMMACULATE

CONCEPTION ACADEMY

Foreign Literature

An important first step in conceptualizing anti-intellectualism or smart-shaming involves defining

its opposite. Intellectualism is a dedication to acquiring knowledge from reason, contemplation,
or analytical thought. On the other extreme of the ambit, anti-intellectualism can be defined as
the depreciation of the complexity associated with intellectual pursuits, and a rejection of the
elitism and self-aware attitude of distinction that is commonly associated with intellectual life
(Shogan, 2007).

Paul Trout (1996) cited that condemning intellectual endeavors as boring, resenting academic
requirements as an intrusion on free time, refusing to learn any more than is necessary to get a
good grade, and ridiculing high – achievers are few of the ways on how smart – shaming is
demonstrated.

Elvin Lim (2008) explained that there are two reasons why some people are against
intellectualism. These are: (a) anti-intellectuals assume that intellectualism exhibits an elitist
behavior and (b) anti-intellectualism posits that speaking the language of the people increases
democratic participation.

Recent studies have begun to report on anti-intellectualism among universitystudents. The

Student Anti-Intellectualism Scale (Eigenberger & Sealander, 2001), themost commonly used
instrument to measure anti-intellectualism, helped in finding thathigh anti-intellectualism led
students to assimilate academic information by rotetechniques and surface level learning, rather
than adopting a learning style that wasdeep and meaning-oriented. They also found that
anti-intellectualism was negatively related to critical thinking behavior.

Hook (2004) also found that students with an anti-intellectual attitude had difficulty adjusting to
college, and were less attached to theirinstitutions.

Such students were at higher risk for poor academic adjustment, including under achievement
and attrition. According to Triki et al. (2012), anti-intellectualism mayimpact student’s
performance in academic education. Students high in anti-intellectualattitudes and those with
low academic self-efficacy were more likely to engage inacademic dishonesty, they also tend to
show lack of interest in the class. They are oftenthe ones who display academic dishonesty and
consistently downgrades intellectualsand their work.

TITLE: EMOTION REGULATION: PREDICTING SMART-SHAMING TENDENCY ON SOCIAL

MEDIA COMMUNICATION

This study looked at whether smart shaming is truly a kind of judgment on a person. We can
observe that smart shaming has a significant influence on a person since many people may see
themselves in such situation. Individuals' actions were investigated in this study. M. C. A. Austria
and I. M. Diaz (2019). Researchers in study 1 employed a correlational strategy for data
collection and linear regression for data analysis and discovered that a poor degree of emotion
control encourages smart-shaming behavior. Smart-shaming tendencies are exacerbated by low
cognitive reappraisal and expressiveness repression. The difference between high and low
Cognitive Reappraisal and Expression Suppression scores for Smart shaming propensity was
determined using a T-test in the research. In study 2, a T-test was used to compare high and
low Cognitive Reappraisal and Expression Suppression scores, revealing that there is a
significant difference (p> 0.05) between the two. In line with the original premise, there is a
negative association between emotion management and the proclivity for smart shaming.
Emotion regulation and cognitive processing are also interconnected entities.

The importance of this study to the researchers' research is to learn about the effects of smart
shaming on people and how they behave when they are subjected to it.

TITLE: Common Smart Shaming Phrases: An Analysis of Origin and Causes

 The importance of being clever was explored in this study, as well as the capacity to
create smart communication skills with other people. Meanwhile, some mock this intellect,
completely oblivious to the fact that it is already hurting others' feelings. C. Cantonjos, (2019).
Cunning humiliation is a tactic used to fake cunning agreements by decreasing the technical
intellect's blow. In this study, the researchers investigated the roots of intelligent humiliation and
its impact on society in depth. C. Cantonjos is a town in Spain (2019). Students who participated
to the survey stated that social media and other information platforms were the major sources of
the prevalent smart shaming words they employed in their regular conversations. These clever
shaming statements were either intended as a jest or as a kind of sarcasm.

The researchers' goal in this study is to figure out why it's vital to understand the impact
of smart shaming on those who don't understand the importance of intelligence and don't restrict
themselves to smart shaming.

TITLE: The Use of Social Media for Shaming Strangers: Young People's Views

RRL (FOREIGN)

In this study, the researchers have studied that in Recent years have seen an increase in a
practice known as online public shaming. Online public shaming is when social media, and
related technologies, is used as a platform for 'shaming' individuals for perceived violations in
social norms and etiquette. This qualitative study explored young people's views on the
occurrence and acceptability of this practice, including how it varies from related phenomenon
such as cyber-bullying. The findings indicate that young people consider there to be a number
of benefits to public shaming e.g. Deterring similar behaviours, and these also make it distinct
from bullying. The discussions raised a number of related issues surrounding privacy,
surveillance and managing online 'presence', which highlighted several implications for practice
and requirements for future research.

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

An important first step in conceptualizing anti-intellectualism or smart-shaming involves

Smart shaming is the act wherein people were being shamed for being smart. It is a view
where intelligence is deemed as a negative trait. It is an emerging social issue in the
Philippines. At this age, where people are able to access the world Filipinos weren’t seem
aware either of smart shaming or anti-intellectualism. Instead of accepting the knowledge
that someone knows, people refuse to accept the fact and would humiliate the one who
was sharing the knowledge.

The events that lead to smart shaming have some connections to AntiIntellectualism.
Anti Intellectualism is described as hostility towards the intellectuals.(Wikipedia) It may
be observed that some influential people who have known to have such high intellect
used their power to oppress the commoners. During these times, people has some high
regard for education, those who received higher education composed the academic
elitist. Academic elitist was people who dominate politicsand education. Thus, following
some historical events the people grew out to loathe the people who of high intelligence.

SMART SHAMING TO SELECTED GRADE 11 STEM STUDENTS OF
IMMACULATE CONCEPTION ACADEMY (PHENOMENOLOGY)

Local

Researchers sought to explain why anti-intellectualism is so common among students. One

common reason is that students believe their academic classmates are superior to them.
Sison (2015) elucidated on this, stating, "Instead of engaging a person who has something
interesting to say,
To put it another way, their ideas are perceived as a threat, as if the person were hurling
insults rather than stating facts. The offended party believes that the person with a unique
thought is making them feel stupid."

( Austria, M. C. A., & Diaz, I. M. ,2019)Smart shaming can be viewed as an emotional

response and indeed a social phenomenon. Smart shaming tendency can be explained by a
combination of cognitive reappraisal and expression suppression habits of a person. Results
found that respondents have slightly high Cognitive Reappraisal scores and slightly low
Expression Suppression scores for shaming tendency.

" Shaming Smart Shaming or Anti-Intellectual or Anti-Intellectualism– As we the

anti-smart shaming people call it– is an act in which people mock someone else for the sole
reason of being smart or having something more than them," writes Dave Angelo Sales
(2017). Belittling, depriving, and even more, it feels like slapping someone else's face. Thus,
they are celebrating their ignorance; making fun of themselves for celebrating their
ignorance; making fun of themselves for being dumb."

Local Literature

As stated by Pillos C. (2019) The origins of smart-shaming culture are thought to have arisen
from an important component of our Filipino identity. Dr. Virgilio Enriquez, known as the Father
of Filipino Psychology, stated in Sikolohiyang Pilipino that the notion of pakikipagkapwa is still
at the heart of Filipino psychology. We emphasize empathy, unity, and social interactions, and we
share these values with other Asian countries.

Filipinos' experience under Spanish and American colonial authority has taught us to distrust
Western cultural notions like individualism and elitism.Madrazo-Sta.Romana J.(2015). During
our country's colonial history, societal institutions produced a significant difference between the
well-off, educated Filipinos and the common folk who had no means of obtaining any level of
education.It weakened the Filipino people's sense of unity and finally caused many to limit
scholars to an elite stereotype.

SMART SHAMING TO SELECTED GRADE 11 STEM STUDENTS OF IMMACULATE

CONCEPTION ACADEMY

According to Santos T (2016), Filipinos and smart-shaming. As English is the second

language of the Filipinos, it should not be a big deal if a Filipino speaks fluent English
and should not be mocked. Seeing as Filipinos are addicted to social media, they are
quick to criticize everyone on it. And, as a result of their lack of awareness of such
intelligence, the ostensibly meaningful conversations come to a halt. Sharing ideas with
other people on social media is perceived as an offense by other social media users.
Akizuki S. (2015) The reasons why Filipinos succeed in other countries but not in their
own. During the nearly 300-year span in which the Spaniards colonized the Philippines if
you were intellectual, you were labeled a "baliw" or mocked. Even Dr. Jose Rizal is forced
to study in Europe to learn more and is later labeled a traitor for his intelligence. Many
Filipinos believed that when they were corrected, the person who corrected them was
ignorant, when in fact it was they who were ignorant to accept their mistakes. It is
believed that everyone who achieves success outside of the country chooses to leave
because they believe no one will support them.

Eusebio E. (2020), Smart-shaming: A Filipino “Thinking” that should be gone.

Responding to an argument by shaming the person is an example of smart shaming.
Others question the person who corrected them or expressed an opinion that differed
from theirs. Being smart-shamed reduces a person's confidence to speak up, and it may
also affect the desire to guide others because they are afraid to be judged.

WAIT HINDI PA MAAYOS Baygan, J(2016), Making Sense of Smart-Shaming in the
Philippines. “Miriam Defensor-Santiago is a woman who is highly educated with an
excellent political career and plenty of awards and honors to show for it—yet many still
consider her “baliw” for her quirky attitude. Pilosopo Tasyo, in Jose Rizal’s timeless
novel “Noli Me Tangere”, is a well-learned old man who is a philosopher and a wise
adviser by the educated but considered crazy by the ill-learned”. 25% of the population is
below poverty line, and 54% of the population have neverfinished high school (2010).
From that, we can imagine the environment the common Filipino has in its day to day
lives: it is glaringly clear that the Philippines is lacking the proper environment to
establish intellectualism to the common folk. Sometimes, they are using the word “edi
wow”, or “madami kang alam” because they don't understand the meaning of your
“intelligent” content, and not knowing that the word they say is considered offensive for
the ‘intellectuals’.
