Research Topic:

Investigating the Impact of a Competitive Environment on the Mental Health and


Behavior of Senior High School Students

Functionalism (structural functionalism)


Theoretical
- It is a theoretical framework that says, society is more than the
Framework: combination of its components since each one contributes to the
stability of the whole. Since each element of society serves an
essential role but relies on others to function, Durkheim viewed
society as an organism. When one component is in crisis, the
others must change in order to fill the void.
- This theoretical framework Guides the conceptual basis of my
Justification: study, which is Investigating the Impact of a Competitive
Environment on the Mental Health and Behavior of Senior High
School Students, and how structural functionalism can provide
valuable insights to support the idea of my research. A further
component that contributes to functionalism and supports my
studies is social alliance. Researchers can evaluate how the
competition affects student social bonds by looking into how it
affects shared objectives, beliefs, or behaviors. Furthermore, it
implies that competition in a high school environment may
contribute to social stability by providing a clear path to success
and achievement. It might also establish norms and benchmarks
for efficiency and conduct. My research study is unquestionably
aided by functionalism, considering it makes it easier to detect and
differentiate between intentional and unintended behavior, as well
as the results of known and unrecognized repercussions. This
makes it simpler for me to examine the advantages of my research,
including the students' increased motivation as a result of the
competitive setting and any unforeseen consequences like their
mental health deteriorating and resulting in stress or even
depression. Lastly, Researching competitiveness enables one to
evaluate the values fostered in a competitive high school setting
and how they affect students' behavior. This component of
functionalism helps my research to highlight the significance of
common standards and principles in preserving social harmony as
a whole.
