a. media frequency and
b. time spent?

1.00 – 1.50 Very low
1.51 – 2.50 Low
2.51 – 3.50 Neutral

Correlation Matrix
Time Used for Time Spent for Social Media in a
Entertainment day
Cognitive Pearson's r 0.264 0.176
p-value 0.014 0.104
Spearman's
rho 0.252 0.189
p-value 0.019 0.081
Interpretation:
Based on the results above, there is a significant relationship between the Time used for entertainment to the
Adaptability of the respondents (Pearson’s r = 0.382; p-value < 0.001; Spearman’s rho = 0.373; p-value <
0.001). Moreover, specifically the Cognitive (r = 0.264, p-value = 0.014; rho = 0.252, p-value 0.019), Emotional
(r = 0.378, p-value < 0.001; rho = 0.396, p-value < 0.001), and Behavioral (r = 0.308, p-value = 0.004; rho =
0.283, p-value = 0.008). In addition, the Time spent for a day has a significant relationship to emotional ( r =
0.3, p-value = 0.005; rho = 0.303, p-value = 0.005), Behavioral (r = 0.288, p-value = 0.007; rho = 0.267, p-value
= 0.013), and Adaptability (r = 0.307, p-value = 0.004; rho = 0.316, p-value = 0.003).
4. Which among the dimensions of social media exposure best predict adaptability?
Interpretation:
Based on the results using linear regression, the overall model significantly predicts adaptability (R = 0.450,
R2 = 0.202, F =2.44, p-value= 0.021) since p-value = 0.021 which is lower than the chosen alpha = 0.05.
Moreover, among the predictors, Time used for entertainment was the greatest factor in predicting
adaptability (Est = 0.2281; SE = 0.1030; t = 2.214; p-value = 0.030). The time used for entertainment has as
well the greatest contributor to the model (S.Est = 0.2973).
5. Is there any significant difference in adaptability of the respondents when their sex, economic status,
and preferred social media platform are considered?
a. Sex
Statistic df p
Assumptions
Homogeneity of Variances Tests
F df df2 p
Interpretation:
Assumptions were checked to determine if there is a violation of equal variances. Since Levene’s test for equal
variances is not significant (F = 0.463, p-value = 0.493) thus it was not violated. Therefore, Independent
parametric test will be used.
The results from independent t-test showed that there is no significant difference of adaptability levels across
sex ( t = -0.375, df = 84, p-value = 0.708).
ANOVA - Adaptability
Sum of Squares df Mean Square F p η²
Assumption Checks
Homogeneity of Variances Tests
Statistic df df2 p
Interpretation:
Assumptions were checked to determine if there is a violation of equal variances. Since Levene’s test for equal
variances is not significant (F = 0.953, p-value = 0.541) then it was not violated. Therefore, Independent
parametric test will be used.
The results from ANOVA showed that there is a significant difference of adaptability levels across family
income (F = 3.18, p-value = 0.008, Eta.Sq. = 0.193) since p-value is lower than the chosen alpha = 0.05 and it
has a large effect size (ES > 0.14) but no significant difference of adaptability levels across most social media
used (F = 1.16, p-value = 0.337, Eta.Sq. = 0.070) since p-value is greater than the chosen alpha = 0.05 and it has
a medium effect size (ES = 0.70, Medium: 0.06 ≤ ES < 0.014 ).

Cont. Intepretation:
Since Family income has a significant difference, Post-hoc test was used. Family income ₱9,520 - ₱21,194 and
₱131,485 - ₱219, 140 has a significant difference (MD = 1.29, df = 78.0, t = 3.692, p-value = 0.009). Moreover,
₱219, 141 and up & ₱131,485 - ₱219, 140 has a significant difference (MD = 1.0833, SE = 0.310, df = 78.0, t =
3.498, p-value = 0.017).
