Summary

This study was made to better explain the Comparative Analysis on the Effects of

Intimate Relationship on the Social Relation of the students of Senior High School in

Malvar. This study mainly aimed to seek answers to the following; (1) profile of the

respondents in terms of age, sex, year level, relationship status; (2) effects of intimate

relationship in terms of their peers, family relationship and academic performance; (3)

significant difference between the effects of intimate relationships when grouped


according to profile; and (4) implication to the findings of the study to the interpersonal

skills of students.

The respondents of the study were the students of Senior High School in Malvar

with a total number of 100. The main instrument used in the study was a self- constructed

questionnaire, which is design to know the Comparative Analysis on the Effects of

Intimate Relationship on the Social Relation of the students of Senior High School in

Malvar.

In the total of 100 respondents, 45 were male and 55 were female. Majority of the

respondents were 17 years old with the total of 40 respondents while there were only

eight (8) respondents that is 19 years old and above. In terms of year-level, 48

respondents were grade 11 and there were 52 respondents who are grade 12. Lastly, 50

respondents detailed that they were single and there were also 50 respondents who were

in a relationship. Based on the results, it showed that there is no significant difference

between the profile of the respondents and the effects of intimate relationship in the

social relation of the students when grouped according to profile.

Base from the following results showed, the following recommendations are

hereby given; (1) to the parents, they may know the effects of having their child an

intimate relationship with the effect of it to their relationship with their family and how to

handle with those effects in their relationships, and have a guidance to it, (2) teachers

may guide their intimate relationship, and also be guided about it where they can observe

their students about the performance tasks, (3) students may undergo counselling to be

guided about intimate relationship and help with their relationship with their peers and
their family and also be guided by their academic performances if there’s a problem

about it, (4) future researchers may use the study to better understand intimate

relationship and to have proper knowledge regarding the comparative analysis on the

effects of intimate relationship to the students of Senior High School in Malvar.

THE PROBLEM
This chapter includes the background of the study that gives information on the

comparative analysis on the effects of intimate relationships on the social relation of the

students in Senior High School in Malvar S.Y 2018-2019.

Introduction

Students nowadays get involved in many kinds of relationship. They want to

explore and experience new things. They want to love and be loved. Having a

relationship is part of people’s lives and being attracted to another person is normal. For

students, it can serve as their inspiration and can boost their confidence and determination

to study harder in school. It can also help the student to be responsible and brave. Being

involved feels good but at that same time it can affect our academic performance.

Adolescent romantic experiences have also been described as the learning context

and training ground for future romantic and marital relationships. Adolescent’s romantic

experiences are thus the initial steps on a journey toward a mature relationship that is

expected to characterize the adult years (Connolly &Mclsaac, 2009).

Being involved in intimate relationship creates an amount of satisfaction it

contributes to the self-esteem and behaviors of those in the partnership. A major reason

for the strong scientific interest in relationship satisfaction is its importance for personal

and family well-being (Bradbury, as cited in Erol & Orth, 2014). In order to acquire

evidence for this notion, Erol and Orth (2014) administered a longitudinal study to

analyze relationship satisfaction in couples. The data showed that partners common

relationship contentment led to higher levels of self-worth. This result showed the true
importance of having genuine, reciprocal relationships in one’s life and a lack of these

bonds may potentially lead to negative consequences of low self-confidence. The status

of relationships within an individual’s environment overlaps in all other aspects of their

lives as well.

The purpose of this the study is to know how intimate relationship affects the

social being of the students. It includes the behaviour of the student in terms of being

involved in an intimate relationship and the behaviour of those students who are not

involved in any kind of intimate relationship. This study may serve as a guide to the

students about their responsibilities in having a relationship or not and also what will be

the consequences of it to the life every individual.

Statement of the Problem

The study aims to determine the effects of intimate relationship to the social

relation of students in Senior High School in Malvar SY 2018-2019.

Specifically, it seeks answers to the following questions:

1.What is the profile of the respondents in terms of:

1.1 Age;

1.2 Sex;

1.3 Year Level; and,

1.4 Relationship status?

2. How do intimate relationships affect the respondents in terms of:


2.1 Peers;

2.2 Family relationship; and,

2.3 Academic performance?

3. Is there a significant difference on the assessment of the effects of intimate

relationships between the two groups of respondents?

4. What is the implication of the findings of the study to the interpersonal skills of

students?

Hypothesis

The hypothesis is stated in its null form. There is no significant difference

between the assessments of the effects of intimate relationships between the two groups

of respondents.

Theoretical Framework

This theoretical framework is a summary of a theory or model that is related to

the present undertaking regarding the factors affecting the students in being involved on

intimate relationship.

American psychologist, Urie Bronfenbrenner, formulated the Ecological System

Theory to explain how the inherent qualities of a child and his environment interact to

influence how he will grow and develop. Through the Bronfenbrenner Ecological

Theory, Bronfenbrenner stressed the importance of studying a child in the context of

multiple environments, also known as ecological systems in the attempt to understand his
development. A child typically finds himself simultaneously enmeshed in different

ecosystems, from the most intimate home ecological system moving outward to the larger

school system and the most expansive system which is society and culture. Each of these

systems inevitably interact with and influence each other in every aspect of the child’s

life. This theory model organizes contexts of development into five levels of external

influence. The levels are categorized from the most intimate level to the broadest.

Figure 1. Urie Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological Theory


The microsystem is the smallest and most immediate environment in which the

child lives. As such, the microsystem comprises the daily home, school or daycare, peer

group or community environment of the child. Interactions within the microsystem

typically involve personal relationships with family members, classmates, teachers and

caregivers, in which influences go back and forth. How these groups or individuals

interact with the child will affect how the child grows.

The mesosystem encompasses the interaction of the different microsystems which

the developing child finds himself in. It is, in essence, a system of microsystems and as

such, involves linkages between home and school, between peer group and family, or

between family and church.

The exosystem pertains to the linkages that may exist between two or more

settings, one of which may not contain the developing child but affects him indirectly

nonetheless. Other people and places which the child may not directly interact with but

may still have an effect in the child, comprise the exosystem.

The macro system is the largest and most distant collection of people and places

to the child that still exercise significant influence on the child. It is composed of the

child’s cultural patterns and values, specifically the child’s dominant belief and ideas, as

well as political and economic systems.

The chronosystem adds the useful dimension of time, which demonstrates the

influence of both change and constancy in the child’s environment. The chronosystem

may thus include a change in family structure, address, parent’s employment status, in

addition to immense society changes such as economic cycles and wars. By studying the
different systems that simultaneously influence a child, the Bronfenbrenner’s Ecological

Theory is able to demonstrate the diversity of interrelated influences on the child’s

development.

To sum up, this theory talks about the development of a child to the environment

and importance of studying different factors that a child encounters. It is connected to the

present study because the latter tackles about effects of intimate relationship on how they

interact to their family, peers, school and to their community which are included in the

discussion of the theory.

Conceptual Framework

To further understand how the variables are connected to each other, the

researchers used input-process-output (IPO) model to present the method used to come

up to the proposed course of action for the study. In this study, the researchers aimed to

determine how intimate relationship affects the social relation of the students shown in

figure 2 in the next page.

The input in the first box contains the information about the profile of the

respondents in terms of their age, sex, strand, and their year level. The researchers

conduct a survey to know the effects of relationship on the students in terms of their

peers, family relation, and academic performance. On the other hand, the second box or

process contains the significant differences in the social relation of the students on having
an intimate relationship and not having an intimate relationship. In the third box is where

the output is. It contains the proposed plan for the implication of the findings of the study

to the interpersonal skills of the students.

Scope and Limitation

The study focuses on the comparative analysis on the effects of intimate

relationship on the social relation of the students in Senior High School in Malvar S.Y

2018-2019. The respondents consists of 13 students involved in an intimate relationship

whose partner is not necessarily studying in Senior High School in Malvar and regardless

of their sex and 12 students that are not involved in an intimate relationship for a total of

25 respondents for each strand includes students in Humanities and Social Sciences

(HUMSS), Science Technology Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), Accountancy

and Business Management (ABM), Technical Vocational Livelihood (TECH-VOC)

strand/track age 16 and above.

The answers of the respondents on the survey are limited in the study of the

effects of intimate relationship of the students to their peer, family relationship and

academic performance. Other answers that are not connected to study are not included.

Significance of the Study

In this point, the researchers believe that the finding of the study will be

beneficial to the teachers, parents, students, and future researchers about the comparative

analysis in the effects of intimate relationship on the social relation of the students in

Senior High School in Malvar.


To the parents. This will help them know and understand the effects of intimate

relationship or absence of it to the behavior or attitude of their children. This may also

guide them on how to deal with their children when it comes to balancing their time with

their academics, family and friends or partner.

To the teachers. The study will guide them about the effects of intimate

relationship on the social relation of the students. This will help them being aware of

what is the difference of having intimate relationship or absence of it to their social

relations so that they have a further knowledge on how to assess their students.

To the students. This study may provide them more information and awareness on

the effects of having intimate relationship or absence of it to their social relations. I

To the future researchers. The result of the study can serve as valuable and

reliable reference material that they can use as a guide which can be beneficial for the

future researchers involving the same field of study.

Definition of Terms

The following terms are defining conceptually and operationally to give the

reader a clearer understanding of the study. It is also useful to help the readers easily

examine different statements with the inclusion of these words.

Academic Performance. Is measured by the final grade earned in the course

(Young et al., 2017). In this study, it refers to the participation of students on classroom

activities, project, and examinations in school.


Peers. It is often regarded as people with the same standing or having the same

attributes, whether of education, status, work, interests, industry, talent, skills and other

determining factors and similar backgrounds (Celine, 2016). In this study, it pertains to

the group of people who share the same likes in life like hobbies with the respondents.

Family Relationship. Domestic group of people with some degree of kinship

who you are closest and spend the most time with them (Brown, 2013). In this study, it

pertains to the relationship of the student to their parents, siblings, and relatives.

Intimate relationship. Being intimate involves the mixing of our life with

another’s, a mingling of souls, a sharing of hearts. This is something we all long for

because it’s how God made us. We were designed to connect (Shana, 2009). In this

study, it talks about the students who have boyfriend or girlfriend.

Social relation. A friendship which comes from your social interest rather than

from your work or family (Ball, 2017). In this study, it talks about the relationship of the

students to their family, friends and those people surrounding them.


Chapter II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
This chapter comprises of some related literature which have relevance to the

present study. It provides information that was used by the researcher to better understand

and conceptualize the factors how intimate relationship affecting the social relation of the

students.

Conceptual Literature

This conceptual literature is essential in doing such research about the

comparative analysis on the effects of intimate relationship on the social relation of the

students in Senior High School in Malvar.

Social Relation. According to functionalism, one of the functions of family is to

socialize their members. Miller and his colleagues (2009), proposed that families have

great influences on individual’s value towards dating, mate selection and norms of dating

behaviours.

Family can be broadly defined as the degree of togetherness and emotional

bonding that family members have towards one another (Vandeleur et al., 2009).

Connected to the study done of Liu and Mao (2011), parent-child relationship and

parenting style significantly influenced satisfaction with romantic relationship. It

suggested that there is a relationship between the high quality parent-child relationship

and high quality romantic relationship.

An article of Barber and Eccles (as cited in Lugman, 2009) talked about the

importance of romantic relationships to adolescent development and its “Long Lasting”

effects on self- confidence. Teens nowadays consider romantic relationship as the number
one source of stress. Manning et al., (2009), it results from the break-ups or conflicts with

partner. Even those who give more importance on academics, spending time with one’s

partner may also serve as a distraction.

Negative effects of romantic relationships are very evident in the report of

Namaganda (2009), saying that “developing feelings of love, two weeks before exams

can lead to lack of concentration during the time a learner should be reusing and thus

failure”.

Vandeleur et al. (2009) also reported that in the development of interpersonal

skills and social bonds, experiences of relationships with family members plays an

important role. Social learning is one of the process that lead to socialization. According

to social learning theory, it is suggested that learning happened within a social context.

Individuals are able to learn from observing and imitating others’ behaviors (Engler

2008).

Relationship. Humans, particularly adolescents get involve in with variety of

reasons. According to Aristotle, humans are “social animals” which made them long to

form an intimate relationship in which love can be given and receive freely which the

psychologists called “The need to belong” (Myers, 2010).

Raman (2010) stated that being in a relationship involves physical contact

which causes chemical arousal to the persons involved and at the same time gain love and

confidence in which they are longing for.


Establishing and maintaining a long-term relationship is a central social

process for many adults. The success or failure of this endeavor can significantly impact

happiness and wellbeing (Holmes & Johnson, 2009). Several studies suggest that

supportive stable romantic relationships are associated with higher wages and

gratification in many domains of life (Dush & Amato, 2005). Similarly, happily married

individuals are physically and emotionally healthier than those who are not (Koball,

Moiduddin, Henderson, Goesling, 2010). According to functionalism, one of the function

of family is to socialize their members. Miller and his colleagues (2009) proposed that

families have great influences on individuals’ value towards dating, mate selection and

norms of dating behaviors.

The American media consistently portray marriage as an involving little

commitment. For example, many if not media personalities appear to engage in

spontaneous unions and even more spontaneous dissolutions, immunity from the

messages society and the media send regarding intimate relationships, marriage, and

divorce especially to adolescents and young adults, is impossible. Not only do the media

portray marriage intimacy unstable, researchers suggest that television and modules

contribute to unrealistic and idealized beliefs about marriage.

Furthermore, also the parental influenced on children beliefs and attitudes

about marriage is paramount, and is a substantial focus of the current study. Children

naturally experience the relationship that their caregivers cultivate, both with the children

themselves and with significant others. These relationships contribute in the foundation

of relationship beliefs that a child will develop and carry into adult relationships.
While attachment style seems quite influential in the development of beliefs

and expectations of loving relationships also has been shown to have an effect on the

formation of relationship attitude and beliefs. (The effect of intimate relationship

education on relationship optimism and attitudes toward marriage, 2009).

Synthesis

The conceptual literature above are associated to the current undertaking for it

will be useful in supporting the study. All the concepts and terms are fully understood by

the researchers because of the literatures gathered.

Social relation includes family relationship, academic performance and peers.

In the family relationship, the parents have a great influences on individual’s value

toward dating. Family members significantly influenced satisfaction with romantic

relationship. In academic performance, being involve in romantic relationship lead to

lack of concentration during the time a learner should reviewing. Intimate relationship

affects the social aspects of the person if their partner is the source of stress, it results

distraction and mood swings which can affect their relationship to them.

Relationship according to Aristotle, human are “social animals”. Human have

a heart to love and express it freely. Happily married individuals are physically and

emotionally healthy. The success or failure of this endeavour can significantly impact

happiness and well- being.


Research Literature

This part contains the previous studies made that would be agree basis and

strong array for the current undertaking.

In the study of Giordano, Phelps, Manning, and Longmore (2008), they claim

that, “despite the ubiquity and general importance of dating, the role of romantic partners

on academic achievement has not been systematically investigated”. The majority of the

research on the link between social factors and academic achievement are concerned with

parental and peer relationships and their association with the academic achievement of

adolescents; far fewer studies have analysed romantic relationships and college students.

To address this gap in the literature, this study intends to investigate the relationship

between romantic relationships and academic achievement among students at a midsized,

private university.

In the study of relationships and substance use, Fleming, White, and Catalano

(2010), identified a hierarchy of the effects of relationship status on substance use:

Married individuals were the least likely to use illicit substances with single individuals

the most likely, suggesting that those in many types of romantic relationships less likely

to use drugs than those who are not romantically linked to another. These findings appear

to suggest that it would be too simplistic to declare that romantic relationships are

positive or negative factors for young people; the effects of romantic relationships on

numerous behaviours seem to be conditioned on several factors, including gender and

relationship quality.
The most pertinent study to date was conducted by Manning, Giordano,

Longmore, and Hocevar (2009). Their work analyzed longitudinal data from more than

400 young adults aged between 18 and 24 to first show a high degree of homophily

between romantic partners and their career and educational goals. They also found that

these young adults considered their partners to be a positive influence on their academic

goals rather than a hindrance. Similar to the previously described literature on the effects

of romantic relationships on other behaviors, it would be appropriate to say that the

effects more pertinent for the current study are the findings that link personal

relationships with academic achievement of students attending colleges and universities.

The influence of family factors has been shown to exert an effect on college success, with

parental attachment shown to increase levels of adjustment for young students

(Kolkhorst, Yazedjian, & Toews, 2010; Sarigiani, Trumbell, & Camarena, 2013).

Similarly, a study of young adult men in relationships found that stable

romantic relationships inhibit criminality, while antisocial behavior committed by

partners increases the likelihood that the men would commit offenses (Capaldi, Kim, &

Owen, 2008), of romantic relationships on academic achievement are mixed, but that

there is much evidence for differential effects based on the characteristics of the romantic

partners in question.

Synthesis

The research literature in the previous page relate to this study because it

provides information that help the researcher fully understand technical concepts and

terms about variables of the study.


In the study of Longmore (2008), it is related to the study of the researchers

because it talks about intimate relationship affects the peer, academic performance. In

this study, the researchers focus on the effects of intimate relationship on the social

relation including family relationship.

In the study of Fleming, White, and Catalano (2010), it is related to the study

of the researchers because it talks about romantic relationship in adolescences. It is

different to the study of the researchers because they give a numerous behaviours seem to

be conditioned on several factors, including gender and relationship quality.

In the study of Kolkhorst, Yazedjian, & Toews, 2010; Sarigiani, Trumbell, &

Camarena (2013), it is related to the study of the researchers because they get a result

that young adults considered their partners to be a positive influence on their academic

goals rather than a hindrance. It is different to the study of the researchers because they

focus on colleges and universities and the researchers give the differences on having an

intimate relationship or not on their academic performance.

In the study of Capaldi, Kim, & Owen (2008), they focus on the antisocial

behaviour committed by partners which men who commit the most. Similar to this study

in terms of their topic about romantic relationship.


Chapter III
METHODOLOGY
This chapter present the design and procedures in gathering the data for

the study. This chapter consists of research design, respondents of the study, research

procedures, data analysis and assumption of the study.

Research Design

The study aims to know the comparative analysis on the effects of intimate

relationship on the social relation of the students in Senior High School in Malvar. The

data will be gathered using a survey questionnaire that will help the researchers

determine information for the study.

According to Shuttleworth (2008), descriptive research design is a scientific

method which involves observing and describing the behaviour of a subject without

influencing it in any way. Many scientific disciplines, especially social science and

psychology, use this method to obtain a general overview of the subjects. Some subjects

cannot be observed in any other way. It is also useful where it is not possible to test and

measure the large number of samples needed for more quantitative types of

experimentation.

The researchers believe that through descriptive research method they can gather

truthful and factual data that is significant in conducting the said study. To fully

understand the comparative analysis on the effects of intimate relationship to the students

of Senior High School in Malvar, the researchers uses survey questionnaire.


Respondents of the Study

Students with and without intimate relationship from Senior High School in

Malvar were chosen to be the subjects of the study as researchers found out that these

respondents were accessible and accommodating in providing information about the

research topic. The chosen respondents from Senior High School in Malvar were

identified by seeking questions if they have an intimate relationship or not, that is why

the researchers have no doubt that the data that will be gathered are relevant, reliable, and

appropriate for the current study.

The subject of the study involved 30 students in total wherein 15 were single and

another 15 were in a relationship. These students are enrolled in the following stands:

Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS), Science Technology Engineering and

Mathematics (STEM), Accountancy and Business Management (ABM), Technical

Vocational Livelihood (TECH-VOC) which includes 15 students with an intimate

relationship and 15 students without an intimate relationship.

Sampling Design

The researchers used non-probability sampling specifically purposive sampling in

determining the respondents. Purposive sampling design is a design in which the

respondents are chosen base on their profile that will fit the topic of the researchers. The

researchers came up with the purposive sampling design as it is the most fit sampling

design for the study. A total of 100 respondents were set by the researchers before data

gathering. The respondents of the study were the selected students of Senior High School

in Malvar from Humanities and Social Sciences (HUMSS), Science Technology

students are 17 years old that has the total of 40 over 100 respondents which is 40 percent

of the total percentage of the total population. Second are the 16 years old who gained 33

percent with a 33 frequency. Meanwhile, third are 18 years old who gained 19 percent
with a frequency of 19. While there are only eight (8) frequency in 19 years old and

above which has the lowest percentage of eight (8) percent of the total population.

The respondents of this study are students who are adolescents who majority age

range to 17 years old because most of the students of Senior High School fell under the

said age bracket which support the study of Connolly &Mclsaac (2009), adolescents

romantic experiences are thus the initial steps on a journey toward a mature relationship

that is expected to characterize the adult years.

1.2. Sex. The profile of the respondents in terms of sex was determined and

interpreted using the frequency and percentage. Table 4.1.2. present the frequency

distribution of the respondents according to their sex.

3. I chat with my friends 3.12 Agree

social media platform) at

4. I am aware of the 3.24 Agree

problems my friends

currently experience and

they need someone to talk to

5. I attend all of my friend's 3.32 Agree

Composite Mean 3.46 With Effect


Based on the results as shown in table 4.2.1, for the respondents whose

relationship status is single, the most dominant factor pointed out that got the highest

weighted mean of 3.74 is the statement "I spend my free time with friends in school" with

a verbal interpretation of "Strongly Agree". This may due to the reason that single

students can spend their free time in school with their friends because they have no

boyfriend or girlfriend to spend their time with.

Meanwhile, the statement "I am aware of the problems my friends currently

experience and keep them company when they need someone to talk to" rank as number

two with weighted mean of 3.24 and with verbal interpretation of "Agree". This may due

to the reason that single students are aware of their friends' problems because they spend

their free time together and have an ample time to share every problem that their friends

experience.

Moreover, the statement "I go out with my friends after class or during weekends"

and "I attend all of my friends' birthday parties or gatherings" ranked as the lowest with

weighted mean of 3.32 and verbal interpretation of "Agree". The result revealed that even

though the single students can spend their free time with friends in school, students can't

go out after class or during weekends and can't attend birthday parties maybe because

single students are focused in their studies and maybe they are not allowed to hangout

during weekends.

Generally, the assessment of single respondents to the effects of intimate

relationship on the relation to their peers is "With Effect" as manifested by a composite


mean of 3.46. This is a clear indication that peers can affect an individual in either good

or bad way.

them company when they need someone to talk to" obtained the second highest weighted
