tools in treating the data to be collected.

For the profile of the respondents, the frequency

count and the percentage distribution will be employed.

For the perceived influence of respondents’ exposure

on social media the weighted mean with the following scale

will be used.

Mean Range Scale Descriptive Rating


4.00-4.74 5 EA Extremely Agree
3.25-3.99 4 A Agree
