Ethical Considerations
In this study, the protection and rights of the respondents are the researcher's top
priorities. The researcher will always take care to respect the respondents' dignity and welfare.
The study will also be examined by the research ethics committee at the University of the
Immaculate Conception to make sure that it complies with all applicable ethical requirements.

Social Value
Research on the learners' adversity quotient is essential during this post-pandemic
phase because we need to know how well our learners are able to handle challenges or issues
after experiencing serious problems during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The study's findings could be useful to the academic community since they could serve
as the basis for creating an improvement program or action plan that would help the learners
perform better academically.

Informed Consent.
Respondents must understand that their participation in this research study is entirely
voluntary. The researcher will provide all the necessary information to potential respondents,
including the study's purpose, procedure risk, and benefits. The respondents must have given
enough time to ask questions. A formal consent form signed by the respondents' parents, as
well as a letter confirming the respondents' consent to participate, are required. These must be
signed by both the respondents and their parents.

Vulnerability of Research Participants.

Most of the respondents to this research are under the age of 18. They are considered
vulnerable and unable to decide for themselves whether or not to voluntarily participate in the
study as respondents. In addition to the learner's consent, the researcher also needs the written
consent of the learner's parent or legal guardian. They are allowed to leave the study whenever
they want to since they are regarded as vulnerable individuals.

Risks, Benefits, and Safety.

The researcher must explain every statement in the questionnaire before it is distributed.
All items must be clear. If there are any statements that are unclear, they are free to ask any
questions they desire. They will once again have the option to decide not to respond to a
question or statement that may bother them or cause stress. But the researcher was careful to
make sure the questionnaire was free of any harsh or negative words. Participation in the study
by the respondents will be given first priority, and their welfare will be taken into consideration.

Privacy and Confidentiality of Information.

The researcher must ensure that any information provided by respondents will be kept
private and confidential. The study will be conducted in accordance with the Data Privacy Act of
2012. The names of those who responded will not be revealed.

Justice.
The researcher must emphasize to respondents the importance of being sincere in their
questionnaire responses. In the research, respondents' time and effort must also be valued. The
researcher also ensure that this study will be beneficial to them and to the community. Giving
respondents a small token or souvenir is a simple way to express gratitude.

Transparency.
The researcher will ensure that there are no issues or factors influencing the
respondents' decisions. Respondents, parents, teachers, and the principal of the school where
the study was conducted may review the findings. However, the respondents' privacy must be
respected.

Qualification of the Researcher.

The researcher is committed and dedicated to conducting the study. The researcher will
seek help from the teacher and from others who are experts in the field of research. This is to
ensure that the researcher is guided as to what to do. Suggestions and advice from experts and
professionals will give assurance of the validity and reliability of the study. The researcher also
has enough training and ability to conduct the study.
Adequacy of Facilities.
The researcher will follow the protocols or procedures when conducting the study. The
researcher makes sure she has everything she needs to carry out the research. One of these is
a functional internet connection, which is essential for conducting research, reading journals or
publications, and looking up related research papers.
Community Involvement.
To involve our community in our study is important. They are one of our stakeholders. It
is a good practice that they will be involve our study from planning to implementation.
