THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

1.1 Introduction

A good Introduction follows an inverted pyramid of writing the background of the study. The

first paragraph defines the issue/problem/subject of the study. The first paragraph also contains

the global or broad perspective. You can cite authors or situations from the different published

sources. Do not forget to write the author and the date the material was published by enclosing

them inside the parenthesis (Dela Cruz, 2010). If you don’t want to use the parenthesis to cite

the source, you may also directly state the source. Example, “According to Dela Cruz in

2010…or According to Dela Cruz (2010)”. The next section contains the national perspective

of your research. Begin with a phrase or sentence that will maintain the coherence of your

composition. Example, In the Philippines”.

The following paragraph(s) contain/s the local perspective of your research. You may

narrow down from the national perspective in the second paragraph, to regional, then

provincial, lastly to your specific locale. Example, “In the Municipality of HInabangan,

Samar, one of the municipalities of Samar,… or In Hinabangan National High School

School, one of the secondary schools in Hinabangan, Samar,… ”.

Wrapping all the situations from global, national, and local perspectives, state the

necessity of conducting your research. Make sure that the reader will be convinced on the

importance of your research by the well-established prepositions in the first, second, and third

11
paragraphs. You may also add paragraphs, but always make sure that the last paragraph is for

the importance of conducting the study in your chosen locale.

1.2 Theoretical/Conceptual Framework

Erase the word “Conceptual” above if you are establishing a research based on the

existing theory or theories, or erase the word “Theoretical” if you are establishing your

research from a construct and not from existing theories. In the first sentence of the first

paragraph, state the main objective of conducting your research. You need also to discuss the

theory or concept where you anchored your study. The discussion should be at the context of

your study and not on the mere definition of the theory. Layout your diagram below this

paragraph which represents your Theoretical/Conceptual Framework.

Figure 1. Conceptual Framework

Below the diagram is the paragraph which discusses your own concept about your plan

in conducting the research. Remember that the Theoretical/Conceptual Framework is the

background of your study. Explain each variable of your diagram or figure above, including

some important processes that you will involve. You may use polygons and/or arrows for your

diagram. The diagram is usually the “Figure 1” in your study. You may begin with, “The

figure above shows”.

12
(Note: You may have a separate section for Conceptual and Theoretical Framework)

1.3 Statement of the Problem

Begin by stating the main or general objective (in declarative form) of the study in one to

two sentences followed by the specific problems (in interrogative form). Make sure that your

specific problems are specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time bounded. Example of

main objective, “This study aims to develop a research manual that will be the basis for

teachers and students in writing research manuscript. Specifically, the study sought to answer

the following questions:

1. Specific Problem 1

2. Specific Problem 1

Null/Alternative Hypothesis (may vary)

Based on the problems above, the following null/alternative hypotheses are made:

Ho1/Ha1: Null/Alternative Hypothesis 1

Ho2/Ha2: Null/Alternative Hypothesis 1

(Note: Null/Alternative Hypothesis section can only be written based on the nature of your

research problems)

1.4 Significance of the Study

The first paragraph states the general significance of the study or the purpose of

conducting the study. You may establish a paragraph by thinking what or who will benefit the

conclusions of your study. After the paragraph, enumerate the persons and discuss the

13
specifics on how can they be benefitted. You may state this way, “Moreover, this study is

beneficial to the following:”.

Students. This manual will scaffold students on how to put research into writing. This

will provide them with technical guide, both in content and physical appearance, in research

writing.

Research Teachers. They will use the developed manual for instructional purposes to

sync research content to the developed school research manual.

Other Researches. (Construct at the context of your study)

1.5 Scope and Limitation of the Study

This section discusses the perimeter of the study such as the time frame, place where the

study will be conducted, the variables involved, and limitations. The first paragraph should

discuss about the 3Ws, starting with: where the study will be conducted; then what is the

timeframe; and who are the people involved or subject of

interest.

The second paragraph begins with main objective of the study and the variables under

study to attain the research objective. After enumerating the variables, emphasize that other

factor that may intervene the results are not under study. Example “Other factors not stated in

this section are beyond the scope of this study”.

14
1.6 Definition of Terms

Term 1 - terms should be in sentence case, bold, and flash left. Definitions should be defined

conceptually or operationally. Terms should be arranged alphabetically. Moringa oleifera -

terms in scientific name should have the same formatting as mentioned above but the term

should be italicized. If definition is long, the proceeding lines should be indented once to

emphasize the term being defined.

15
 Chapter 2

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE

2.1 Related Literature

Chapter 2 can be written by citing first the “2.1 Related Literature” followed by the “2.2

Related Study” section. Each of the citation should be arranged also in chronological manner.

Texts gathered from varied sources should not be copied directly to avoid plagiarism. They

should be rephrased and sources should be labeled based on the

APA 6th edition format. (Dela Cruz, 2018)

“If there are statements or direct quotation that you want to include in your Chapter 2,

do not revise the statement. Instead, write it directly in an inclosing quotation mark,

and indent the entire statement. After the statement, write the source.” (Makiling,

2018)

2.2 Related Study

In this section, you will write findings from related studies that might be important in

substantiating your findings in Chapter 4. Like the Related Literature section, arrange your

citation chronologically or arrange them by topic. Source or citation should be in APA 6th

edition (Rizal, 2018).

The last paragraph of your Chapter 2 should contain the summary of your entire readings

including the gap or the necessity of conducting your study.

16
 Chapter 3

RESEARCH METHODS

3.1 Research Design

The first sentence of this section states the research design whether experimental,

correlational, descriptive, quantitative, qualitative or combination, historical, etc. which you

are using in your study. This will be followed by sentences that will support your chosen

research design. You may do this by explaining why you chose this design or by explaining

what procedure or instrument you are using for this design.

3.2 Participants/Subject of the Study

Choose “Participants of the Study” if you are gathering data from human beings, use

“Subject of the Study” if you are gathering data from non-human biological beings,

phenomenon, or non-animate things. In this section, you will explain the respondents or

participants of the study, and provide reasons of your choice. You will then write the sampling

procedure that you employed in this study and its method of identifying the samples. If you are

using Probabilistic Sampling (Simple Random Sampling, Stratified Random Sampling, Cluster

Sampling, etc.), state the formula and the margin of error that you will consider in identifying

the samples. If you are using Non-probabilistic Sampling (Purposive Sampling, Snowball

Sampling, etc.), discuss the criteria that you considered in choosing your samples or

respondents.

17
 The next paragraph tells the table showing the sample distribution below (except for

Non-probabilistic Sampling). Label it as “Table 3.2.1”.

Table 3.2.1
Distribution of strata per section in Grade 12 students
Section Population per section Sample Sample (Pilot testing)

Section 1 15 males 8 males 2 males

16 females 8 females 2 females

Section 2 20 males 10 males 3 males

6 females 3 females 1 female

Section 3 5 males 2 males 1 male

22 females 11 females 3 females

Total 40 males 20 males 6 males

44 females 22 females 6 females

(Example of table using Stratified Random Sampling)

3.3 Setting of the Study

Write the place or locale where you are going to conduct your study and explain the

reason why you chose this setting. Insert map, if necessary, the map should be labeled” Figure

3.3.1”.

18
3.4 Research Instrument

Begin by discussing what type of instrument you are using, and describe the contents of

this instrument and what data can be extracted using this instrument. Indicate whether you

designed it or adopted it. Do not forget to mention the source for instruments that were

adopted. Discuss also the validation procedures and the reliability of your instrument.

3.5 Data Gathering Procedure

The first paragraph talks about the preliminary procedures done by the researchers before

gathering the data. This includes the preparation and distribution of intent letters to the

different concerned offices/agencies.

The second paragraph discusses the mining of data using the instruments developed

and/or adopted to the target respondents. You should be able to enumerate the procedures from

setting the respondents, distribution of materials up to the retrieval of instrument.

The last paragraph indicates the proper handling of data extracted from the respondents

by keeping the data anonymous and/or confidential.

3.6 Data Analysis

This section discusses the statistical tools and data analysis techniques employed in your

study.

Mean. Begin enumerating by indenting once the paragraph and write the statistical tool

you are using (example above is “Mean”). It should be in sentence case and in bold format.

The following sentences will then discuss the tool at the context of your study. Meaning you

19
should not define the statistical tool, rather discuss it in context. t-test. If there are plenty of

statistical tools that should be discussed, enumerate them one by one and discuss them at the

context of your study.

(Note: You may also include tables that will show how you will analyze your data e.g.

Likert-scale, etc.)

Table 3.2.1
Four-point Likert Scale
Point Scale Description Qualifying Statement

4 3.28 - 4.00 Strongly Agree The students always exhibit research vigor.

3 2.52 - 3.27 Agree The students oftentimes exhibit research

vigor.
2 1.76 - 2.51 Disagree The students sometimes exhibit research
vigor.
1 1.00 - 1.75 Strongly Disagree The students never exhibit research vigor.

Table 4.1.1 shows the format of the table in Chapter 4 which is similar to the table

formats in the previous chapters. The table number is in sentence case and bold format.

Example above is “Table 4.1.1”. The next line will be the name of the table in sentence case.

The table number and table name have a single spacing with no space after the paragraph. The

first paragraph is the interpretation of data. You may do this by grouping all similar results

(example: The table above shows that items number 1, 2, and 5 are strongly agree with mean

scores 3.94, 3.50 and 4.00, respectively. This means that the students find the research manual

very easy to use.), you may also interpret the data by citing only the highest three and highest

low, especially if you have a long list of items or provisions.

21
 The second paragraph is the discussion of the interpreted results. You may do this by

revisiting your Chapter 2 for related phenomenon that may explain the similarity of your

findings. Example: “The students find the research manual very easy to use because examples

on how to write the specific sections in the research paper are present. This is because

examples provide concrete reference and elaboration of a concept as mentioned by Dela Cruz

(2018)”.

Presentations of data using graphs or analytics should be in 2D, colored, no shadows or

other unnecessary picture formatting, and with labels in Times New Roman, size 12, color

black or white. The figure title, unlike with the table title, should be found below the figure. It

should be written in sentence case. The figure number should be a counting continuation with

22
 the previous figure (example: Figure 1, Figure 2,… and so on). Interpretation of data should

be emphasized in the first paragraph.

Discussion of the data should be in the second paragraph. This can be done by citing

related literature, studies, or phenomena, with corresponding citation or source related to your

findings.

Reminder, subsection in this chapter like “4.1 Perception of high school students on the

developed research manual” is a declarative form of your research questions in chapter 1. If

you have five problems, then you should have five subsections in chapter 4.

SUMMARY, CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

5.1 Summary

See to it that the summary of findings is presented in a concise/brief manner. First, write

the general objective of your study followed by a short description of your research method

(research design, sampling technique, and data analysis) that will be caried out to attain or to

answer your main question.

Findings

The following findings are obtained based on the analysis and interpretation of

data.

1. Findings, in sentence case, should be written in bold right after the summary. It has no

section number since it is a part of the summary. The title will then be followed by a short

introductory sentence such as “The following findings are obtained based on the analysis

and interpretation of data”.

2. Findings are the results of your analysis in chapter 4. Each finding should be in order

based on how you presented them in the previous chapter. You should not repeat what you

have written in the previous chapter. Instead, rephrase each of them in direct, clear, and

concise sentence(s).

3. Each finding should be numbered, sentence case, flash left.

24
5.2 Conclusions

Based on the findings above, the following conclusions are drawn:

1. Keep in mind that in drawing conclusions it should be based on the results/findings of

your study (i.e. given one or two or more findings for research problem number one, what

conclusion/s can you derive).

2. Conclusions are not just repeating your findings but abstractions of the summary of

findings.

3. Numerical values (e.g. mean, standard deviation, t value, F ratio, etc.) should no longer be

reported in this chapter since they have already been presented in the previous chapter.

4. See to it that your conclusions are tied to the research questions of your study.

5. Like the findings, each conclusion should be numbered, sentence case, and flash left. The

conclusion section should begin with a short introductory sentence. Example “Based on

the findings above, the following conclusions are drawn:”.

5.3 Recommendations

As synthesized from the findings and conclusions, the following recommendations were

made:

1. Like the findings and conclusions, recommendations should be numbered, sentence case,

and flash left. The recommendation section should begin with a short

introductory sentence. Example “As synthesized from the findings and conclusions,

the following recommendations were made:”.

25
2. Aside from recommendations, you can also give the implications or possible applications

of the results of your study.

3. You can also suggest future research possibilities vis-a-vis research you conducted.
