 CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION

When the pandemic started many social media platforms were

introduced including TikTok. TikTok known in China as Douyin is a
video-focused networking service owned by Chinese company
ByteDance Ltd. It hosts a variety of short videos from genres
like pranks, stunts, tricks, jokes, dance, and entertainment with
duration from 15 seconds to 10 minutes. TikTok is an
international version of Douyin, which was originally released in
the Chinese Market in September 2016. TikTok was launched in 2017
for iOS and Android in most markets outside of mainland China;
however, it became available worldwide only after merging with
another Chinese social media service, Musically, on 2 August
2018. TikTok tends to appeal to younger users, as 41% of its
users are between the ages of 16 and 24. Among these TikTok
users, 90% say they use the app daily. TikTok' geographical use
has shown that 43% of new users are from India. As of the first
quarter of 2022, there were over 100 million monthly active users
in the United States and 23 million in the UK. The average user,
daily, was spending 1 hour and 25 minutes on the app and opening
TikTok 17 times. Using this app too much can affect one’s
behavior.
According to Oxford Language Dictionary behavior is the way
in which one acts or conducts oneself, especially toward others.
Behavior is the range of actions and mannerisms made by
individuals, organisms, systems or artificial entities within
some environment. Taking a behavior informatics perspective, a
behavior consists of actor, operation, interactions, and their
properties. The endocrine system and the nervous system likely
influence human behavior. More complex nervous systems have a
greater capacity to learn new responses and thus adjust their
behavior. Social behavior arises as a result of an interaction
between the two—the organism and its environment. This means
that, in regards to humans, social behavior can be determined by
both the individual characteristics of the person, and the
situation they are in. Health behavior refers to a person’s
beliefs and actions regarding their health and well-being. Health
behaviors are direct factors in maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Health behaviors are influenced by the social, cultural, and
physical environments in which we live. They are shaped by
individual choices and external constraints. Positive behaviors
help promote health and prevent disease, while the opposite is
true for risk behaviors. Health behaviors are early indicators of
population health. Because of the time lag that often occurs
between certain behaviors and the development of disease, these
indicators may foreshadow the future burdens and benefits of
health-risk and health-promoting behaviors.
Nowadays, grade 11 students of Northern Mindoro Academy use
the TikTok app frequently which affects their behavior. The use
of online social networks has become a daily habit among young
adults and adolescents these days, Brailovoskaia (2020). The
research is said to be conducted at Northern Mindoro Academy
since it is located at San Teodoro, where we, the researchers
live. Since grade 11 students in this school are less compared to
other schools. Many students now indulge their time in watching
TikTok videos. They become addicted to it and the daily use of
TikTok may affect their behavior through scrolling and swiping
the screen of their mobile phones. TikTok videos are easily
adapted by teenagers as students want to explore more. One of the
main reasons why the researchers want to find the effects of the
TikTok app on the behavior of the students is because researchers
overheard that many grade 11 students are too lazy to be
responsible. Students don’t study seriously because students
spend more time on watching TikTok videos rather than studying
their modules and answering the attachments or by doing their
house chores. TikTok app also became the source of trends which
allowed the viewers to adapt the content and new mannerisms which
also affects the behavior of the students. Also many people now
critique the TikTok app as it has become a source of fake
information that affects the knowledge, emotions, beliefs,
behavior and perceptions of the grade 11 students especially as
of now in the middle of the election campaign, fake news are all
around the app.
This study aims to know how TikTok affects the behavior of
a person, especially teenagers. It also aims to build awareness
about the effects of TikTok in our mental health. This study
contributes to a wider understanding about the proper usage of
TikTok as a social media platform.

 CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

2.1 REVIEW OF RELATED STUDIES

In the conducted research study of Yuxin Yung (2020),
“Understanding Young Adults’ TikTok Usage.” The perspective of
TikTok users in using this application is it kills boredom,
boosts up mood, and expresses their true self. Home is not
enough to stress out and have fun, to kill this boredom they open
the TikTok app to raise their arousal and find more
gratifications, find joy while watching, dance trendy dances and
find excitement to conduct hilarious pranking videos. People
adopt TikTok for their emotional needs.
The said research study from Yuxin Yung (2020) is connected
to our study as it aims to find if TikTok helps to boost emotion.
The tips of this application is that it provides unique
entertainment for students, it becomes a stress reliever every
time students are stressed in schoolwork. The topic
“Understanding Young Adults’ TikTok Usage’’ is relatively
connected to our research as according to it, TikTok helps to
boost mood, avoids boredom and shows the personality of a young
person especially the Grade 11 students. Through the said study
the researchers are now conducting this study to know if the
TikTok application really helps the behavior of Grade 11 students
being productive and helps to start their daily activities.
In the conducted research study of Hou Liqian (2018), “Study
on The Perceived Popularity of TikTok.” TikTok applications must
have a set time management system, preventing users from
overindulging their time. Watching TikTok 15 seconds videos
affects user’s spare time, TikTok videos play automatically after
opening the application, reverting users to mitigate their time
in an unconscious way that makes user’s easily get addicted that
has a large proportion in affecting user’s behavior. The set up
time management system is an alert notification that pops
automatically in mobile phones to ensure users’ awareness in
their healthy browsing.
This conducted research study is related to our conducting
study. The use of the TikTok application affects the character of
the students, mental and human behavior. It became connected to
the affecting behavior of Northern Mindoro Academy grade 11
students because it affects their learning and they are not given
enough time to study because they continue to use the tiktok
application. Students now use TikTok and they are wasting their
time because of it.
In the study of Badriya, Sadia, Arif (2019), “Living in a
Moment: Impact of TikTok on Influencing Younger Generation into
Micro-Fame.” Students should be aware that TikTok applications
have themes that can trigger them. TikTok themes include:
Inappropriate content theme, privacy and setting theme, and
mental health theme. These themes addressed young users to avoid
using the TikTok application. Inappropriate Content themes
included the concerns of nudity and inappropriate song and
lyrics. Privacy and Setting Theme include the poor privacy
precautions, example is a men record inapt and sexual reactions
videos of kids 18 years old and younger. Mental health theme,
TikTok users bully others user which leads to depression and
suicide.
The conducted research study of Badriya, Sadia, Arif (2019)
is connected to our conducting research study because it tackles
the sensitive content on TikTok. The advancement of technology
has led to the development of multiple forms of entertainment.
With brand new improvements surging year by year, it is apparent
that the present society has grown into a population that heavily
relies on technology to fulfill their wants and needs.
Individuals, particularly the youth, tend to use TikTok for
amusement, relaxation, and intellectual development. Furthermore,
the rise of this new kind of entertainment is especially visible
among younger demographics which mostly are students. However,
according to Badriya, Sadia, Arif et al. (2019), students should
be informed that TikTok applications have themes that can elicit
them. Themes on TikTok include inappropriate content, privacy and
settings, and mental health. These themes aimed at young users to
discourage them from using the TikTok app. Concerns about nudity,
as well as inappropriate song and lyrics, were among the
inappropriate content themes. The theme of privacy and setting
includes insufficient privacy safeguards, such as a man recording
inappropriate and sexual reactions films of children aged 18 and
under. TikTok users bully other TikTok users, which leads to
depression and suicide.
2.2 REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
According to Hui (2017) the disadvantages of short video
apps such as TikTok in order to attract users in the use of
entertainment. Vulgar parody videos increased rapidly in the
TikTok application, which shouldn’t be normalized in this
generation. Teenagers becoming addicted to these short videos is
a wrong concept of life which affects mental behavior of
teenagers in the use of TikTok. For example, some teenagers who
are pregnant shoot content related to entertainment videos, which
deliver inaccurate values to other teenagers.
The statement according to Hui(2017) is somehow related to
our topic “TikTok affecting the behavior of Grade 11 Senior High
School Students of Northern Mindoro Academy”. The statement
according to Hui(2017) states that TikTok really does affect the
behavior of teenagers. Watching TikTok videos affects the
behavior of teenagers because according to Hui there are vulgar
parody videos and most teenagers easily get addicted to these
kinds of videos making it affect their behaviors.
According to Jia Tolentino (2019) a journalist who finds
TikTok application freeing and disturbing to spend time. The only
reason why user’s give the attention and time on TikTok is
because it serves the attention through watching short videos
that were capable of making a half hour pass, resulting user’s
time by not remembering the time through video scrolling.
The statement according to Jia Tolentino (2019) is
relatively connected to our conducting study. The statement is
what the researchers wanted to know after the study, if grade 11
students of Northern Mindoro Academy find TikTok freeing or
disturbing to their behavior. The time spent watching TikTok
videos already signifies that the TikTok application really does
have effects on the behavior of the students. As part of the
TikTok users, scrolling videos on TikTok leads to not remembering
the time through scrolling which this doing becomes part of daily
life and affects behavior.
According to Riley Anderson (2020), a journalist who
discussed the Impact of TikTok on our Time. Deleting the TikTok
application freed up a lot of time to do what was needed. TikTok
continues to evolve and become more popular over this pandemic,
it kept people connected but also made people codependent. Social
Media itself may not be damaging, but the way we use it can so
often become a crutch to our lives. Putting a time limit on your
phone while using TikTok can help reduce time spent on the app.
Develop different hobbies, create to enjoy life outside of our
phones, find activity to do. It is important to balance while
using TikTok. Just remember to practice self control with the app
to have time for healthy hobbies and important social interaction
with people we were created to have.
The statement according to a journalist Riley Anderson
(2020) is relatively connected to our conducting study because it
says how disturbing the TikTok app if students didn’t use it in a
proper way. In this research the researchers are aiming to know
if the TikTok application made grade 11 students codependent to
their behavior. Based on the statement even though there are
benefits of having the TikTok app, grade 11 students should
reduce the use of TikTok by developing hobbies, enjoy life
outside and find activities to do which help more to develop
proper behavior. To find out if developing healthy hobbies and
social interaction are more helpful in developing one’s behavior
rather than scrolling on the TikTok app.
 CHAPTER III
METHODOLOGY

This chapter presents the research method, research design,

respondents of the study, sampling procedure, research instrument
and data gathering procedures that applied in this study.

RESEARCH METHOD
This study is titled “TikTok Affecting The Behavior of Grade
11 Students of Northern Mindoro Academy” and will implement the
qualitative research method. The qualitative research method does
not involve the collection of data that involves numbers or a
need for any mathematical calculation. It is based on the non-
quantifiable elements like feeling or emotion of the researchers.
From the interest in finding the solution of the study, the use
of qualitative research methods will help to know how TikTok
affects the behavior of Grade 11 students of Northern Mindoro
Academy and to address the possible solutions to this effect.

RESEARCH DESIGN
The research design that will be utilized in this study is
grounded theory. Which aimed to develop a theory about TikTok
affecting the behavior of Grade 11 students of Northern Mindoro
Academy. According to Padama (2021) grounded theory is a
research method concerned with the generation of theory, which is
‘grounded’ in data that has been systematically collected and
analyzed. It is used to uncover such things as social
relationships and behaviors of groups, known as social processes.
Grounded Theory developed in California, USA by Glaser and
Strauss during their study—“Awareness of Dying”.
The researchers used the research design grounded theory as
it is appropriate for the conducting study and the problems that
are investigating. With the use of grounded theory it will be
able to collect and analyze data to provide a reliable theory
that is grounded based on the collected data. A theory about how
TikTok affects grade 11 students while using the TikTok app.
Grade 11 experiences while using the app will lead to conclusions
and findings to a grounded theory on how TikTok affects the
behavior of Grade 11 students of Northern Mindoro Academy. Since
we collected and analyzed the respondents data, the utilization
of grounded theory is the appropriate research design for the
study. Using grounded theory we would be able to achieve theories
on how TikTok affects the behavior of Grade 11 students of
Northern Mindoro Academy, the use of theories that are grounded
to the collected data.

RESPONDENTS OF THE STUDY

The respondents of the study are the grade 11 senior high
students of Northern Mindoro Academy that enrolled in the school
year 2021-2022. Northern Mindoro Academy grade 11 strands are
divided into two (2), the HUMSS and STEM strands. There are
seventy four (74) total population of the grade 11 students
enrolled in HUMSS and STEM strands. The respondents are girls and
boys selected from HUMSS and STEM that are using the TikTok
application.

SAMPLING PROCEDURE
This study seeks to comprehend how TikTok affects the
behavior of Grade 11 senior high students of Northern Mindoro
Academy. We used the quota sampling under the non-probability
sampling. Quota sampling creates a sample involving individuals
that represents a population, a specific set of persons who
believe to have the characteristics of the target population
involved in the study is a way of showing that the sample chosen
closely represents the target population as regards such
characteristics. We chose this quota sampling procedure because
we are still in the pandemic and with this method it is a more
appropriate, convenient and effective way to gather the 32
samples online. From the HUMSS and STEM students population of 74
students we just picked 32 students— 7 HUMSS and 25 STEM. After
having the list of name of grade 11 STEM and HUMSS enrolled
students, we selected the students that we know who watch TikTok
videos, then we listed their names in a clear coupon bond to
completely have the 32 samples from HUMSS and STEM students.
RESEARCH INSTRUMENT
This study used research instrument questionnaires or online
questionnaires. Questionnaires are designed to collect data from
a group which is the process of collecting data through an
instrument consisting of a series of questions and prompts to
receive a response from individuals it is administered to. We
used the research instrument questionnaires because we are using
the qualitative method and grounded theory research design. With
the use of questionnaires we knew how TikTok affects the behavior
of selected 32 grade 11 students of Northern Mindoro Academy. We
are able to know what their perspectives, experiences, feelings,
emotions and thoughts are through answering the questionnaires.
We also used questionnaires as it is the most affordable,
effective and efficient instrument in this situation, which is a
pandemic that doesn’t allow face to face interview and
interactions with other students so we chose a series of online
questionnaires.
After adopting the quota sampling we start the collection of
data immediately. The questionnaire was sent to the selected
grade 11 senior high students by messenger private message. There
are five (5) different questions in the online questionnaires.
The questions were checked and had validation by our Practical
Research I subject teacher, questionnaire is the safest way to
gather data in today’s situation. We also divided the 32 selected
students by five ( because we are five individuals in this group)
so that we all conducted and experienced the collection of data
by the use of online questionnaires.

DATA GATHERING PROCEDURE

We, the researcher gather the data under the qualitative
method then we utilize the grounded theory to be able to gather
the data in sequence. We are aiming to know how the TikTok app
affects the behavior of Grade 11 students of Northern Mindoro
Academy and by the use of grounded theory it is the most
efficient way in today’s situation because of the pandemic. After
knowing the research method and research design we next conclude
the total respondents of our study. We first did is to know the
list of HUMSS and STEM enrolled students by the year 2021-2022.
Then we apply the quota sampling. The total enrolled students
from STEM and HUMSS is 74 students and with the quota sampling we
selected the grade 11 students who watch TikTok' videos. We also
adjourned to have 32 samples— 16 HUMSS students and 16 STEM
students. We listed the selected sample of 32 students in a clear
coupon bond. After knowing the total samples we next apply our
research instrument which is online questionnaires as it is the
most safest, efficient and effective way to gather the data. It
also has a validation from our subject teacher to use online
questionnaires because of today’s situation. The questionnaires
consist of five (5) different questions that have been checked by
our Practical Research I subject teacher.
After having the questions in the questionnaire we next
divide the thirty two (32) respondents students into five (we are
five researchers in the group) to immediately gather the data and
to be able to experience how to collect the data in online
questionnaires. After our subject teacher checked the questions,
by April 6, 2022 we started collecting the data. We only used one
social media platform in collecting the data which is a Messenger
app by private message then the respondents answered it by the
use of Messenger app also. All of the data that was collected is
copied and sent to our research group chat (Practical Research
Group 9). Then there was one person from our group who collected
all the gathered data and edited it to Microsoft Office for
immediate and easy tally of the data for the result and
discussion. With this process of collecting the data we are able
to make theories that are grounded to our collected and analyzed
data. We make a simple and easiest way of data gathering
procedure to save time and be safe.
 CHAPTER IV
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION

Based on the data gathered, the answers to each question in

questionnaires were observed and analyzed. The study led to
results and discussion based on how TikTok affects the behavior
of Grade 11 students of Northern Mindoro Academy.
The study showed the following results from thirty two (32)
students of Northern Mindoro Academy. In the first question we
asked the respondents if how they discovered TikTok, out of
thirty-two (32) respondents sixteen (16) students said that they
discover TikTok from their friends and the other sixteen (16)
students said that they discover TikTok through other social
media platforms. Therefore, students discover TikTok by their
friends and through other social media platforms.
In the second question we asked the respondents about how
TikTok affects their behavior. Out of thirty-two (32)
respondents, ten (10) students said that TikTok affects their
behavior by the content, six (6) students said that TikTok didn’t
affect their behavior, and six (6) students said that TikTok
affects them in a positive way. Therefore a greater number of
students from the eleventh grade of Northern Mindoro Academy
affects their behavior by the content of TikTok videos.
In the third question we asked the respondents about how
TikTok videos boost their emotions. Out of thirty-two (32)
respondents, thirty-one (31) students said that TikTok boosted
their emotions based on the content they were watching, one (1)
student said that watching TikTok videos didn’t boost his/her
emotion. Therefore TikTok boosts the emotions of grade 11
students by watching different TikTok contents.
In the fourth question we asked the respondents if they find
watching TikTok videos relaxing and how. Out of thirty-two (32)
respondents, twenty nine (29) students said that they find
watching TikTok videos relaxing by means of its cute and funny
contents, becoming their stress reliever, and videos related to
academics. Three (3) students said that they didn’t find TikTok
videos relaxing because of the bad influence of content.
Therefore, TikTok videos are relaxing to the behavior of the
students.
 In the fifth question we asked the respondents if they find
TikTok videos stressful and how. Out of thirty-two (32)
respondents, nineteen (19) students answered no because it brings
happy and unique contents, while thirteen (13) students answered
yes because they spent too much time watching videos, stressful
videos and information that was not true. Therefore, watching
TikTok videos didn’t bring stress to the behavior of the
students.
In the statement of the problem, the first statement of the
problem is about what are the perspectives of Grade 11 students
of Northern Mindoro Academy in terms of using the TikTok
application. The grade 11 Senior High Students of Northern
Mindoro Academy have different perspectives about using TikTok.
Some of the students find TikTok as their comfort app and stress
reliever, while others find it a disturbing app because of some
contents. These results agree with the study of Yuxin Yung (2020)
that TikTok raise their arousal and find more gratifications,
find joy while watching, dance trendy dances and find excitement
to conduct hilarious pranking videos.
In the second statement of the problem, we state how the
TikTok app affects the behavior of the students. Based on the
data gathered and analyzed there are different reasons how TikTok
affects their behavior: watching different contents affects their
behavior, while some students said that TikTok didn’t affect
their behavior, and for some students TikTok affects their
behavior in a positive way. This result is related to the study
of Hou Liqian (2018) that TikTok must have a time management
system that is an alert notification that pops automatically in
mobile phones to ensure users’ awareness in their healthy
browsing.
In the third statement of the problem it aims to know if
there is a relationship between TikTok and the behavior of Grade
11 students of Northern Mindoro Academy. There is a significant
relationship between the TikTok application and the behavior of
the students. Students start indulging their time watching TikTok
and the different contents they watch affects their behavior.
These results agree with the statement according to Hui (2017)
that teenagers becoming addicted to these short videos is a wrong
concept of life which affects mental behavior of teenagers in the
use of TikTok.
In the last statement of the problem which asked if TikTok
is a boost of emotion? Based on the analyzed data, students find
TikTok boosts their emotions because TikTok helps them to feel
relaxed and relieve their stress. The statement according to
Riley Anderson (2020) agreed to this result that social media
itself may not be damaging, but the way we use it can so often
become a crutch to our lives.
 CHAPTER V
SUMMARY, CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

This study concluded the variety of TikTok short videos from

genres like pranks, stunts, tricks, jokes, dance, and
entertainment with duration from 15 seconds to 10 minutes, and
the range of actions and mannerisms made by individuals known as
behavior.
We, the researchers, therefore conclude that there is a
significant relationship between TikTok and behavior of grade 11
students of Northern Mindoro Academy. TikTok significantly
affects the behavior of grade 11 students by watching videos and
its contents. While the perspectives and perceptions of the
students towards the use of TikTok are some that affect their
behavior. Grade 11 students of Northern Mindoro Academy boost
their emotions by watching entertaining TikTok videos. TikTok
helps to relieve their stress and make them feel relaxed.
Since this study already proved that there is a significant
relationship between TikTok and Behavior, we propose a better way
to develop students’ behavior that exposes social interactions
rather than using social media platforms. Putting a time limit on
their phones while using the TikTok app so they can avoid
overindulging their time to develop new hobbies, create life
outside their phones and to find new activities (social
activities or environmental activities, etc.). In this way we
can develop their interest in dealing with their behavior and
encourage them to have social interaction with people they are
created to have. People around them can help them effectively in
developing their behavior.
We also propose a better and effective way to develop
parents’ parental guidance in terms of using the TikTok app and
its effects on the behavior of their children. Parents should
guide their children in creating time management and social
interaction with people, community and environment. In this way
we can develop their interest in dealing with the behavior of
their children and to help them encourage their children for
better values and behavior they could have if they perform social
interaction rather than using mobile phones.
And lastly, for the future researchers, consider some other
factors that may affect and influence behavior. Rather than the
use of TikTok try to use other factors that also affect the
behavior of students like Wattpad, Facebook, Twitter, Online
Games, Watching Anime and Korean Dramas. Thus, implications for
all parties, including teacher, school, students, parents and
researchers, encouraging those with vested interest in the
behavior of the students.
