2. The Level of Awareness on Human Papilloma Virus vaccination among female students of Emilio Aguinaldo College-Cavite:

The female students of Emilio Aguinaldo College-Cavite were slightly aware of the conditions and constraint about HPV and HPV vaccination; the average weighted mean being 1.922 only. Q5 - Human Papilloma Virus Vaccine is given as 3 injections over 6 months - was ranked 1st, had a mean of 2.22 and interpreted as Slightly Aware. Q2- Women should get vaccinated before they become sexually active - was ranked 2nd, had a mean of 2.01 and interpreted as Slightly Aware. Q7 and 8 - Human Papilloma Virus vaccine helps protect women against four (4) types of Human Papilloma Virus and Human Papilloma Virus Vaccine protects against vaginal and vulvar cancer were both ranked 3.5th,, had means of 1.99 and interpreted as Slight Aware. Q6 - Human Papilloma Virus Vaccine may reduce the risk of contacting genital warts that may develop into a cancer caused by Human Papilloma Virus - was ranked 5th,,had a mean of 1.97 and interpreted as Slightly Aware. Q9 - Human Papilloma Virus vaccination combined with Papsmear will reduce the risk of acquiring Human Papilloma Virus - was ranked 6th ,had a mean of 3.26 and interpreted as Slightly Aware. Q1 and 3 Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccination is recommended to females aged 9-25 years old and Human Papilloma Virus vaccine is most effective in women who dont have sexual experience were both ranked 7.5th, had means of 1.86 and interpreted as Slightly Aware. Q10 - Side effects of Human Papilloma Virus vaccine are high fever, weakness, dizziness and rashes -was ranked 9th, had a mean of 1.74 and interpreted as Slightly Aware. Q4- Human Papilloma Virus Vaccination costs Php

2,500-3,000 per shot/dose - was ranked last, had a mean of 1.69 and interpreted as Slightly Aware.

3. The Difference between the level of awareness on Human Papilloma Virus vaccination among female students of Emilio Aguinaldo college-Cavite and their profile:

3.1

Age - At 5% level of significance, with 39 degrees of freedom, the f-

computed value of 7.98 is greater than the f-critical value of 2.87. The decision is to reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis, hence, there is a significant difference between the level of awareness on Human Papilloma Virus vaccination among female students of Emilio Aguinaldo College-Cavite and their Age. It means that the respondents level of awareness on HPV vaccination varies when they are grouped according to age. 3.2 Civil Status - At 5% level of significance, with 19 degrees of freedom, the

f-computed value of 0.55 is less than the f-critical value of 4.47. The decision is to accept the null hypothesis, hence, there is no significant difference between the level of awareness on Human Papilloma Virus vaccination among female students of Emilio Aguinaldo College-Cavite and their Civil Status. It means that civil status does not affect the respondents level of awareness on HPV vaccination. 3.3 Course - At 5% level of significance, with 59 degrees of freedom, the f-

computed value of 3.81 is greater than the f-critical value of 2.39. The decision is

to reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis, hence, there is a significant difference between the level of awareness on Human Papilloma Virus vaccination among female students of Emilio Aguinaldo College-Cavite and their Course. It means that the respondents level of awareness on HPV vaccination varies when they are grouped according to course. 3.4 Family History of Cervical Cancer - At 5% level of significance, with 19

degrees of freedom, the f-computed value of 0.00 is less than the f-critical value of 4.41. The decision is to accept the null hypothesis, hence, there is no significant difference between the level of awareness on Human Papilloma Virus vaccination among female students of Emilio Aguinaldo College-Cavite and their family history of cervical cancer . It means that family history of cervical cancer does not affect the respondents level of awareness on HPV vaccination. 3.5 Source of Information about HPV Vaccination - At 5% level of

significance, with 39 degrees of freedom, the f-computed value of 5.32 is greater than the f-critical value of 2.87. The decision is to reject the null hypothesis and accept the alternative hypothesis, hence, there is a significant difference between the level of awareness on Human Papilloma Virus vaccination among female students of Emilio Aguinaldo College-Cavite and their source of information about HPV vaccination. It means that the respondents level of awareness on HPV vaccination varies when they are grouped according to source of information about HPV vaccination.

CONCLUSIONS Based on the results of the study, the following conclusions were made: 1. Majority of the female students of Emilio Aguinaldo College-Cavite were single and had no family history of cervical cancer ; while most were aged 17-18 years old, enrolled in the School of Business

Administration/Customs Administration & Accountancy, and received information about HPV vaccination from television. 2. The female students of Emilio Aguinaldo College-Cavite were slightly aware about Human Papilloma Virus vaccination. 3. There was no significant difference between the level of awareness on Human Papilloma Virus vaccination among female students of Emilio Aguinaldo College Cavite cervical cancer. 4. There was a significant relationship between the level of awareness on Human Papilloma Virus vaccination among female students of Emilio Aguinaldo College Cavite and their age, course and source of and their civil status, and family history of

information about HPV vaccination.
