CHAPTER 1
THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND
INTRODUCTION
This study aims to investigate the focus group which are the Senior High School
Students(SHS). Mostly students who work as a part time job employee are the ones
that has a strong capabilities,learned how to stand on it’s own, and has a special
skills.There are a lot of employers of a companies,small businesses,and restaurants
that hires a part time employee to reduce the labor costs and to give experience.
Employer that employs students to become part of them creates a big impact for a
student especially in some problems.The study seeks to uncover the effects of
managing both work responsibilities and educational goals at the same time. It aims to
explore how balancing work alongside school impacts various aspects of students'
lives. This includes addressing concerns that are important to teachers, parents,
policymakers, and anyone else who cares about the overall growth and well-being of
young people today.
1.)Are there significant differences in the grades of part-time job employees and non-
employees among senior high school students
2.)How do senior high school students balance their academic commitments with
part-time work schedules?
3.)How do students utilize their earnings from part-time jobs, and does financial
independence impact their overall well-being and academic performance?
THEORETICAL FRAMEWORK
CONCEPTUAL FRAMEWORK
1. Senior high school students who work part-time jobs are similar to their non-
working counterparts in terms of baseline academic performance and well-being.
2. The part-time job employment of senior high school students does not
significantly affect variables other than academic performance and well-being,
such as social relationships or extracurricular activities.
3. Students accurately report their part-time job status, academic performance, and
well-being in surveys or interviews.
HYPOTHESIS
H1: Senior high school students who work part-time jobs will exhibit varying levels
of academic performance compared to those who do not work.
H2: Part-time job employment among senior high school students will have differing
effects on their overall well-being.
H3: Coping mechanisms and support systems will mediate the relationship between
part-time job employment and academic performance/well-being.
SCOPE OF STUDY
1. This study will focus on senior high school students aged 15 to 18 who are enrolled
in schools.
2. The research will investigate the effects of part-time job employment on academic
performance, encompassing grades, test scores, and overall achievement.
3. The study will explore the impact of part-time job employment on various aspects
of well-being, including physical, emotional, and psychological health.
DELIMITATIONS OF STUDY:
1. The study will not include senior high school students who are not currently
enrolled in school.
3.The study will focus only on a particular location or region and won't consider other
places or contexts.
4.The study will not assess long-term outcomes beyond the scope of the research
period.
5.It will not account for individual differences in part-time job types, work hours, or
job satisfaction, which may influence outcomes.
1.Sample Size: The study may have a limited sample size due to constraints such as
time, resources, and access to participants, which could affect the generalizability of
the findings.
3.Cross-Sectional Design: The study's cross-sectional design may limit the ability to
establish causal relationships between part-time job employment and academic
performance/well-being, as it cannot capture changes over time.
4.External Factors: External factors such as family dynamics, socioeconomic status,
and individual differences in coping mechanisms may confound the relationship
between part-time job employment and academic performance/well-being.
6. Recall Bias: Students may have difficulty accurately recalling past experiences or
emotions when reporting on their academic performance and well-being, leading to
potential recall bias.
7.Potential Confounding Variables: The study may not account for all potential
confounding variables that could influence the relationship between part-time job
employment and academic performance/well-being, such as extracurricular activities
or parental involvement.
DEFINITIONS OF TERMS
Senior High School Students-refer to students who are in the final years of their
secondary education. These students are typically between the ages of 15 and 18 and
are preparing for higher education or entering the workforce. The term "senior high
school students" is used in various contexts to discuss different aspects of their
education and experiences. For example, one study examines the social-class
delamination among senior high school students, highlighting the disparities between
students from different backgrounds and the impact of the school system on these
divisions . Another study focuses on the attitudes of senior high school students
towards research, exploring factors such as research positivity and anxiety levels .
Additionally, research has been conducted on the information-seeking behavior of
senior high school students, highlighting their needs, preferences, and the factors
influencing their use of information channels .(https://typeset.io/questions/definition-

Balancing-to be in a position where you will stand without falling to either side, or to
put something in
this position:(https://dictionary.cambridge.org/us/dictionary/english/balancing)
Generalizability-is the degree to which you can apply the results of your study to a
broader context. Research results are considered generalizable when the findings can
be applied to most contexts, most people, most of the
time.(https://www.scribbr.com/research-bias/generalizability/
