RESEARCH 2.0: TRAINING ON DATA ANALYSIS AND TREATMENT 2022 SDO CANDON CITY
Learning Objectives:
1. Define data interpretation

2. Describe the four levels of data interpretation
3. Interpret data expressed in tabular forms using the
four levels of interpretation
4. Exemplify accuracy and objectivity in interpreting
data
Preliminary Activity:
Critique Me!
Table 1 shows the skill level of the respondents in
solving exponential equations. The mean for topic 1 is
4.28 described as moderate while the mean for topic 2 is
2.65 interpreted as low. This implies that the respondents
are not good in Mathematics.
Processing Questions:
1. Was the table introduced? Yes
2. Were the significant numbers in the Yes
table mentioned?
3. Were the numbers given level of Yes, but not
categorization? Are they correct? correct!
4. Did we know what specific No
competencies did the learners
perform well?
5. Was there any corroboration/negation None
that supports/negates the findings?

Example 1:
Table 1 presents the proficiency of the respondents in Basic Accounting along
the identified dimensions. The mean along Basic Terminology in Accounting is 4.01.
On the other hand, the mean along Taxation and Statement of Accounts are 3.87 and
14.98, respectively. The overall proficiency of the respondents is satisfactory with a
grand mean of 22.86 equivalent to 50.80 percent. This implies that the respondents
have moderate performance in Basic Accounting. Investigating further this result, the
topic with the highest percentage of 59.92% is along Statement of Accounts described
as satisfactory. This indicates that the respondents performed satisfactorily in making
statement of accounts. They know the basic principles of creating account statements.
On the other hand, the topic with the lowest percentage of 38.70% is along Taxation.
This means that the respondents have difficulty along this area. They do not know the
principles relevant to taxation. Moreover, they are not well-versed in computing or
solving problems involving taxations. The present study is akin to the study of
Villanueva (2019) which disclosed that the performance of the students in Basic
Accounting and Taxation is moderate.
Table 1 presents the proficiency of the respondents

Table-reading
The overall proficiency of the respondents is
satisfactory with a grand mean of 22.86 equivalent to
50.80 percent.
This implies that the respondents have moderate performance in
Basic Accounting. Investigating further this result, the topic with the
highest percentage of 59.92% is along Statement of Accounts
described as satisfactory. This indicates that the respondents
performed satisfactorily in making statement of accounts. They know
the basic principles of creating account statements. On the other hand,
the topic with the lowest percentage of 38.70% is along Taxation.
This means that the respondents have difficulty in this area. They do
not know the principles relevant to taxation. Moreover, they are not
well-versed in computing or solving problems involving taxations.
Analysis and discussion

The present study is akin to the study of Villanueva
(2019) which disclosed that the performance of the
students in Basic Accounting and Taxation is moderate.
Corroboration/negation
Table 1 presents the proficiency of the respondents in Basic Accounting along
the identified dimensions. The mean along Basic Terminology in Accounting is 4.01.
On the other hand, the mean along Taxation and Statement of Accounts are 3.87 and
14.98, respectively. The overall proficiency of the respondents is satisfactory with a
grand mean of 22.86 equivalent to 50.80 percent. This implies that the respondents
have moderate performance in Basic Accounting. Investigating further this result, the
topic with the highest percentage of 59.92% is along Statement of Accounts described

statement of accounts. They know the basic principles of creating account statements.
On the other hand, the topic with the lowest percentage of 38.70% is along Taxation.

principles relevant to taxation. Moreover, they are not well-versed in computing or
solving problems involving taxations. The present study is akin to the study of
Villanueva (2019) which disclosed that the performance of the students in Basic
Accounting and Taxation is moderate.
Example 2:
Table 2 presents the satisfaction level of SHS students on Jollibee
Food Corporation along different dimensions. The dimensions service
quality, food quality, and facilities and equipment have a mean of 3.45,
3.54, and 4.23, respectively. The grand mean is 3.74 interpreted as high
satisfaction. This indicates that the services, facilities, and food menus
and quality of Jollibee meet the expectations of the students.
Investigating further this finding, facilities and equipment obtained the
highest mean of 4.23 interpreted as very high satisfaction.
This implies that physical aspect of Jollibee particularly
the facilities and facilities exceeds the expectations of the
students. It further implies that the cleanliness of the equipment
and other amenities is highly maintained. On one hand, service
quality obtained the lowest mean of 3.45 described as high
satisfaction. This implies that the service quality of Jollibee
meets the expectation of the students.
This finding contradicts the study of Cruz (2018) which
revealed that the satisfaction of college students on the services
and food quality of Jollibee is poor.

Drill
Identify what part/element of data
interpretation is shown in each statement.
This finding contradicts the study of
Zara (2018) which revealed that the
conceptual understanding of STEM
students on Philippine history is very
satisfactory.
The grand mean is 85.23 described as
very satisfactory.
The table presents the skill level of the
students in Basic Grammar rules. As
can be seen in the table, indicator 1 has
a mean of 12.54 while indicator 2 has a
mean of 14.23.
This implies that the respondents are
not equipped with the basic skills and
competencies in reading. They cannot
identify and recognize sounds and
alphabets. More so, they cannot read
simple words and phrases.
The present study runs parallel with the
study of Garcia (2019) which disclosed
that there is a significant positive
relationship between the stress level and
job performance of the employees.
Part 2: Interpret the given table below.
