program on the relationship between anxiety and depression, memory capabilities, and academic performance. The
objective is also:
To Determine the Prevalence of Anxiety and Depression
To Examine the Impact on Memory
To Provide Recommendations for Support
To Contribute to the Literature
1.3. Scope and Limitations
The scope of this study is to examine the relationship between anxiety, depression, and memory among
engineering and architecture students at the Technological Institute of the Philippines. It will also investigate how
demographic factors like age, gender, year level, and program affect this correlation and academic performance.
It is limited to students in the CEA at the TIP-QC only. The findings of the study may not be generalizable to
students in other engineering and architecture programs or to students in other disciplines. The assessment of anxiety
and depression relies on self-report questionnaires, which are subject to respondents' honesty and self-awareness.
Some individuals may underreport or overreport their symptoms.
1.4. Significance of the Study
This research holds great significance for several reasons. The foremost objective is to gain an understanding of
how anxiety and depression impact the memory of engineering and architecture students. The findings will be
instrumental in devising interventions that can improve their mental well-being and enhance their memory retention.
Additionally, the study will examine how demographic factors influence academic performance and memory
retention. These insights can help develop tailored treatments that cater to individual backgrounds and promote
academic success. Ultimately, the study seeks to add to the existing body of knowledge on the correlation between
mental health and academic achievement, which can aid in creating effective methods to improve student
performance.
