ABSTRACT

CHAPTER 1
BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY
Introduction
 It introduces the study and signifies its importance to create an interest and intense desire of the reader
to know more about the investigation.
 This is the preliminary part of the problem, leading to its main parts and objectives.
 It may include legal or other basis related to or for conducting the study

Suggested Guidelines in Writing the Introduction

1. The first paragraph is intended to provide the readers a mental readiness, thus giving them the information as
to what the problem of research is all about. It introduces the study and its justifications.
Ex. Liqour is also known as alcohol dependence and is considered as disease with symptoms such as
cravings or feeling of strong urge to drink; loss of control of not being able to stoponce drinking has
begun; physical dependence such as nausea, sweating, shakiness and anxiety; and tolerance or drinking
greater amounts of alcohol to “get high”.
2. The second paragraph carries the greater part of the introduction and the problem that is used as frame of
reference. It tells the readers the scope, circumstances coverage of the study.
Ex.Drinking liqour is widely consumed in the Philippines. One reason for this maybe that the Spanish

colonizers not only brought with them the Roman Catholic Religion but also their drinking culture.
3. The third paragraph revolves around the various conditions that accompany and determine the purpose of the
study.
Ex. Drinking liqour is the most prevalent and widely used drugs by teens and has consistently held this
position. The widespread use of alcohol by young people has been a cause of increasing public
concern due to the potential for its direct effect on the health of the youths, as well as to the threat to
the public safety that results from the practice of driving while intoxicated.
4. The last paragraph is a sort of closing portion that arouses the curiousity and interest of the readers to know
the results of the study.
Ex. In order to promote their brands advertisers create messages with a number of common themes and
appeals that may affect the basic attitudes and behaviors, especialaly among younger audiences.
Content analysis studies show that the character in ads are typically depicted as youthful, physically
attractive, upper middle class, successful, sphisticated, elegant, happy, and adventurous ( Garlington
1997)
