 Abstract

This study focused on the level of difficulty of research subject. The objectives of

the study is to determine the capacity of a student to conduct a research. To establish

information about the level of difficulty of the research subject which is the most

commonly the students experienced and to describe it and explain the meaning of

research because there are lots of information that everyone didn’t know about it and

will understand and have knowledge about it. And also we are explaining and determine

the capacity and skills of the students does in school. In this study, we specified if there

is a significant relationship between the level of difficulty in research subject and the

students’ capacity for conducting a research. The study was conducted in Goldenstate

College particularly the Grade 12 Harriot students. The researchers used the descriptive

method in this study and to determine the relationship between the level of difficulty in

research subject and to the capacity of a student, mean was used. The data was

analyzed, presented and interpreted and make conclusion about it whereby mean was

used. With regard to the findings of the study, it was clear that the difficulty of the

research subject does not always affect the capacity or knowledge of the students.

Guidance and counseling, encouraging team building and interaction with difficulty from

conducting research, encouraging individual performances, and equal distribution of

resources and encouraging objective thinking were some of the solutions that emerged

from the study to help adults cope with difficulty.
