 BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY

Sleep is essential for human health and well-being, and it is especially important

for students. Sleep deprivation has been shown to have a negative impact on academic

performance, but the mechanisms underlying this relationship are not fully understood.

One potential mechanism is metacognition, which refers to the ability to think about

one's own thinking. Metacognition is important for learning and academic achievement,

and it may be particularly vulnerable to sleep deprivation.

A quantitative analysis of the relationship between sleep deprivation,

metacognition, and academic performance in Grade 12 students in Julio Ledesma

National High School could provide valuable insights into the underlying mechanisms.

This analysis will involve collecting data on students' sleep habits, metacognitive

abilities, and academic performance. The data could then be analyzed using statistical

methods to determine whether there are significant relationships between the variables.

Relevant literature, such as the study conducted by Jalali, Khazaei, Paveh,

Hayrani, and Menati (2020), "The Effect of Sleep Quality on Students’ Academic

Achievement," underscores the significance of sleep quality in the context of academic

performance.

A study published by Espino, J. M., & Reyes, M. A. (2016), the Philippine Journal

of Psychology found that sleep deprivation impaired the metacognitive skills of Filipino

university students. The study found that sleep-deprived students were less likely to
monitor their understanding of the material, identify areas where they needed to

improve, and develop strategies for overcoming challenges.
