Here’s a draft for the Background of the Study with theoretical foundations:
Background of the Study
In the landscape of secondary education, students undergo various developmental milestones that
shape their academic, social, and emotional lives. For senior high school students, balancing
academic responsibilities with personal experiences, including romantic relationships, becomes a
pivotal challenge. The focus of this study is to examine how romantic relationships impact the
learning experiences of Grade 12 Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS) students at Taft
National High School.
Adolescence, as a critical stage of development, is characterized by heightened emotional
experiences, including the formation of romantic bonds. According to Erikson’s Psychosocial
Development Theory, the stage of identity vs. role confusion underscores the significance of
relationships in shaping one’s self-identity. For senior high school students, romantic
relationships can either serve as a source of emotional support, enhancing self-esteem and
academic motivation, or as a distraction, leading to decreased academic focus.
Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs also provides a theoretical lens for this study. The need for love
and belongingness, which includes romantic relationships, is considered foundational to
achieving higher-order needs such as self-actualization. For students, fulfilling this need may
contribute positively to their overall well-being and academic success. However, unmet
expectations or conflicts within relationships can lead to stress and diminished academic
performance.
Furthermore, Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Systems Theory highlights how multiple
environmental factors, including peers and significant others, influence a student’s academic life.
Romantic relationships, situated within the microsystem, interact with other layers such as
family, school, and societal expectations, potentially affecting a student’s time management,
focus, and learning outcomes.
This study aims to explore these dynamics within the specific context of Taft National High
School’s Grade 12 HUMSS students. By understanding how romantic relationships influence
their learning, this research seeks to inform teachers, parents, and students about strategies to
achieve a balanced academic and personal life.

I’ve received the document. Let me thoroughly review it, focusing on Chapter
3, and provide suggestions for revisions to align it with the revised title and
focus of the study. Please give me a moment.
Review and Suggestions for the Document
General Observations:
Focus of the Study:
The document transitions from broader themes like love and learning to the
specific “Impact of Romantic Relationships on Learning.” This is a significant
shift and should reflect in all chapters, especially Chapter 3. Ensure the title,
objectives, methodology, and analysis consistently align with this narrowed
focus.
Language and Tone:
Sections contain informal phrasing (e.g., “we’re not trying to say”) that
should be revised into a formal academic tone.
Citations:
Some literature lacks proper APA 7th edition in-text citations and references.
Ensure all sources are cited consistently.
Chapter 3: Research Methodology
Strengths:
The methodology is clear and uses a descriptive quantitative approach,
which suits the study’s objectives.
Sampling design and Slovin’s formula are mentioned.
Suggestions for Improvement:
Research Design:
Rewrite to focus on how the quantitative survey method uniquely captures
the relationship dynamics and learning outcomes. Explain why descriptive
analysis is appropriate for the study goals.
Sampling Design:
The use of Slovin’s formula needs better justification. Include:
Population size.
Formula application.
Assumptions made (e.g., margin of error).
Instrumentation:
Add validation details for the survey questionnaire, such as:
Reliability measures (Cronbach’s alpha if applicable).
Pilot test results.
Locale Description:
Briefly describe Taft National High School, its demographics, and relevance to
the study. Including a map or description of the region adds context.
Consistency in Terminology:
Use terms like “sampling method” consistently to avoid confusion.
Other Chapters: Key Observations
Chapter 1: Background of the Study
Refine focus: Frame the background around how romantic relationships
specifically influence Grade 12 students’ learning.
Introduce theoretical frameworks (e.g., Maslow’s hierarchy, Erikson’s
psychosocial development).
Chapter 2: Review of Related Literature
Organize into thematic subsections for coherence:
Impact of Relationships on Academic Performance.
Emotional and Social Challenges.
Time Management Strategies.
Remove redundancies and ensure all literature has proper citations.
Chapter 4: Results and Discussion
Correlate findings with the study objectives and hypotheses.
Integrate tables with narrative explanations for clarity.
Discuss implications of findings—what does this mean for stakeholders like
educators and policymakers?
Chapter 5: Conclusions and Recommendations
Conclusions should directly answer research questions.
Recommendations for students, teachers, and parents should be actionable.
Avoid generic advice.
Specific Language Edits
Replace “we’re focusing on what’s happening right now” with “The study
focuses on the current academic semester.”
Avoid phrases like “cool programs” and instead use “structured
interventions.”
Final Recommendations:
Revise Chapter 3 to emphasize methodological rigor and alignment with the
revised title.
Formalize tone throughout the document.
Ensure coherence across all sections with a clear focus on romantic
relationships’ impact on learning.
Proofread for grammar, consistency, and adherence to APA standards.

Background of the Study
Adolescence is a critical period marked by significant developmental
milestones, including the formation of romantic relationships. These
relationships can influence various aspects of an adolescent’s life, notably
their academic performance. This study examines the impact of romantic
relationships on the learning experiences of Grade 12 Humanities and Social
Sciences (HUMSS) students at Taft National High School.
Recent research indicates that adolescents involved in romantic relationships
may experience lower academic performance compared to their single peers.
