    INTRODUCTION
    Peer pressure is the
    influence of a peer
    group that encouraging
    the students to change
    their attitudes and
    values for approval.

    Teachers,counselors and parents should provide


    suitable guidance to understand how peer pressure
    helps positively or negatively on their academic
    performance in school.

    STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM
    The following are the research questions that will guide this study.

    1. What is the demographic profile of the Grade 12 Learners at


    Nemesio-Epifania Taneo Memorial High School in terms of:
    1.1. AGE
    1.2. GENDER
    1.3. STRAND
    2. What are the positive effects of peer pressure on academic
    performance among Grade 12 Senior High School students?
    3. What are the negative effects of peer pressure on academic
    performance among Grade 12 Senior High School students?
    MATERIALS AND METHODS
    • The study focuses on the Grade 12 Senior High School
    students in Nemesio-Epifania Taneo Memorial High School.

    • The study adopted mixed method design incorporating


    descriptive survey. According to Best and Khan(2009), a
    descriptive survey design is concerned with conditions or
    relationships that exist, opinions that are held, processes
    that are going on, evident effects, or trends that are
    developed. (Kerlinger,1969). The descriptive survey design
    enabled the collection of data without manipulating the
    research variables.

    • With a total population of 244 Grade 12 Senior High School


    students, we will consider a sample of 152 students are
    respondent's of this study.
    •Slovin's Formula was used for computing the sample
    size. Slovin's Formula is developed by Robert Slovin. It is
    used to determine the appropriate number of
    participants/samples in a survey. This determination of
    sample size is based on the availability of the number of
    populations. Without the actual value of a population,
    Slovin's formula is not appropriate. It is used to calculate
    the sample size (n) given the population size (N) and a
    margin of error (e). It is computed as n = N / (1+Ne2).

    • These samples are randomly selected through a simple


    random sampling technique. Simple random sampling is
    a sampling method that ensures that each member of a
    population has an equal chance of being chosen as a
    respondents. (Thomas,2020).

    • In this study, the researcher used the survey


    questionnaire in gathering data, this survey design
    provides a quantitative description of some fraction of
    the population that is sampled through the data
    collection process.
    • The questionnaire is composed of three (3) parts. Part 1 seeks to gather data
    regarding the demographic profile of the respondents which includes their sex,
    age, and strands. Part 2 of the questionnaire seeks to determine the positive
    effects of peer pressure on the academic performance of Grade 12 Learners. Part
    3 seeks to determine the negative effects of peer pressure on academic
    performance among Grade 12 Learners.
    Parts 2 and 3 which are the negative and positive effects of peer pressure-
    participants will be measured using a four-point Likert scale. Each dimension
    contains items of which the respondents indicate their degree of effect. The
    mean will be computed and interpreted as follows:

    RANGE OF VALUES EFFECTS OF VALUES INTERPRETATION

    1.00-1.75 STRONGLY DISAGREE VERY LOW

    1.76-2.50 DISAGREE LOW

    2 51-3.25 AGREE HIGH

    3.26-4.00 STRONGLY AGREE VERY HIGH


    • To answer the questionnaire presented under the
    statement of the problem, the following statistical tools
    will be employed:

    1. For Statement of the Problem 1: Percentage and


    Frequency will be used to present and analyze data
    responding to the responses of respondents.

    2. For Statement of Problems 2&3: Average Weighted


    Mean will be also composed to represent the responses
    of our respondents to the questionnaire about the
    influence of peer group relationships and academic
    performance while standard deviation will be used to
    determine the degree of stability in these values.

    IMPLICATIONS AND CONCLUSIONS
    Based on the findings of the study, the following conclusions we're
    made:

    1. The level of the demographic profile of the students in terms of Age


    indicates that 16 to 18 years old are the majority age of the respondents.
    2. The level of the demographic profile of the students in terms of
    Gender reveals that women make up the majority of responders.
    3. The level of the demographic profile of the students in terms of
    Strand, shows that GAS strand had the highest number of student's
    respondents while the ABM strand had the lowest number of Grade 12
    student's respondents.
    4. Positive impact of peer pressure has a significant effects to the
    academic performance of the students.
    5. Negative impact of peer pressure has no significant effect to the
    academic performance of the students. However, it is important that
    student's ethical concerns are heightened by the detrimental impacts of
    peer pressure.
    Based on the findings of the study, the following
    implications we're made:

    1. Researchers can design intervention to help students


    cope with and resist negative peer influences, promoting
    healthier behaviors and academic outcomes.
    2. Findings can inform the development of school policies
    and programs aimed at creating a positive peer
    environment and reducing the impact of negative peer
    pressure.
    3. Schools can implement support systems such as peer
    monitoring programs or counseling services to help
    students navigate peer pressure more effectively.
    4. Identify it individual and contextual factors that
    contribute to susceptibility to peer pressure, allowing for
    targeted prevention strategies.
