 ABSTRACT

Online gaming is a game that playing through the use of the internet or any other

network available. One of the online games where most played by the students is the

mobile legends. As the game starts to widen, young people, especially students,

correspondingly get addicted to the online games. As this matter occur, is playing online

games can affect the self-confidence of the one who played with it especially that they

give more time on playing mobile legend rather than focusing on developing their inner

self. In addition, is mobile legends application where mostly of the students used will

bring positive effect of the self-confidence of the ones who played with it or its just

brought negative impact towards students confidence. Since, self-confidence is

considered one of the most influential motivators and regulators of behavior on a person

lives it is significant to recognize the impact of online gaming towards the self-

confidence of the users especially those students whose engage to this kind of activity.

This study uses Simple Random Sampling in selecting respondents. Simple Random

Sampling is a subset of a statistical population in which each member of the subset has

an equal probability of being chosen (Adam, 2019). A Simple Random Sampling is

meant to be valid and unbiased. Using the Simple Random the researchers obtain 47

respondents using Slovins Formula and these respondents will be randomly selected.

After the interpretation and analysis of data gathered, it was found out that online

gaming does not affect the confidence of students who play online games specifically,

mobile legend application, which means that playing online games have positive effect

towards the self-confidence of a certain gamer. In addition, the regulator of behavior of

a person does not affected at all.

INTRODUCTION

Rationale

The demand in the use of the internet has led to many particular, this

overwhelming demand has led to the rampant used of online gaming. Online gaming is

a game that play through the use of the internet or any other network available. One of

online games where most played by the students is the mobile legends. As the game

starts to widen, young people, especially students, correspondingly get addicted to the

online games. As this matter occur, is playing online games can affect the self-

confidence of the one who played with it especially that they give more time on playing

mobile legend rather than focusing on developing their inner self. In addition, is mobile

legends application where mostly of the students used will bring positive effect of the

self-confidence of the ones who played with it or its just brought negative impact

towards students confidence. Since, self-confidence is considered one of the most

influential motivators and regulators of behavior on a person lives it is significant to

recognize the impact of online gaming towards the self-confidence of the users

especially those students whose engage to this kind of activity.

There are several studies involving online games. The Addiction to the internet

and Online Gaming by Ng, et al. (2005), it shows in the research that there are certain

users become addicted to online chat or fantasy role – playing games ( MVDS).

According to Ko, et al. (2005) that there is 11.7% of high school students have

developing addiction to internet which can impair academic performance, psychological

1
wellbeing and interaction with peers and family members. On the other hand, Griffith

(2004) focus on Demographic facts and playing variable in online Computer Gaming the

result showed that 81% online games players were male and that mean age of players

was 27.9 years of age. So, in this study it is focusing to the effect of online games

towards the self-confidence whom currently have by grade – 11 students whose

addicted or actively on online games player.

Furthermore, most of the research has tended to concentrate on the more

negative aspects such as excessive play and addiction, the effect of playing online

games and the demographic aspects. Whilst in this study the researchers tends to

recognize the impact of playing online games towards the self-confidence of online

gamers especially focuses on the grade 11 students of Liloan National Technical -

Vocational High School whom often used the mobile legend application.

The researchers would like to find out the effect of online gaming to the self-

confidence of a particular player especially students. In addition, this study will also help

to give information with regards to enlightening us that it is should not focus only on

addiction of online games but there’s also on important aspects that need to recognize

which is the impact of it to the self-confidence, the provider of motivator of a person life ;

where it identifies the self-confidence of a students whose playing online games if the

game may brought good effect towards the students confidence in school.

Review of Related Studies and Literature

This chapter presents related studies and literature that are relevant and give

justification to the current study. The following data are needed to give information and

strengthen the research.

Related Studies

In the 2000s, online games became popular, while studies of internet gaming

addiction emerged outlining the negative consequences of excessive gaming, its

prevalence and associated risk factors (Kuss,2013). More common physical and

psychological effects contributes to online video gaming are social isolation increase

aggression, negative academic and occupational consequences ( Subletle and Mullan,

2010 ).

Precious research of Niemz et al. ( 2005 ) study was an attempt to replicate common

findings in the literature and provide more evidence for the existence of internet

addiction among students – a total of 371 British students responded to questionnaire.

Results should that 18.3 % of the sample were considered to be pathological internet

users whose excessive use of the internet was causing academics, social and

interpersonal problem. Whilst in the study of Wan and Chiou ( 2007 ) it investigate the

conscious and unconscious, psychological motivations of online game addicts and

further discuss the relationship between surface and source motivations.

The above related studies discuss about the addiction, its negative impact towards

the academic and social aspects. And discuss about the relationship between surface

6
and the source of motivation of online game addicts. However the current study would

like to find out the impact of online gaming addiction towards the self-confidence of

students which has been neglected by other studies, which tend to find the positive and

negative impact of online games towards the self-confidence of the players.

Related Literature

Recent research has demonstrated broad benefits of video game play to perceptual

and cognitive abilities. This broad improvement suggest that video game bases

cognitive intervention may be ideal to combat that may perceptual and cognitive

declines associated with advancing age ( Boot et al., 2013 ).

Its examines the relationship between action games and video games which studies

have found that relatively short action video game intervention can result in academic

improvements to a number of perceptual and cognitive abilities. Thus video game

interventions are potentially an ideal solution to address the many perceptual and

cognitive decline associated with aging.

However in the study of Zhengchuan et al. ( 2011 ) rely on the functionalist

perspective of human behavior and propose and test a balanced model of antecedents

of online game addiction among adolescents which simultaneously focuses motivating,

prevention and harm reduction forces. Findings suggest that online game playing

partially mediates the effects of prevention/harm reduction and functional needs /

motivation factor on the formation of online game addiction.

On the other hand, Wei ( 2006 ) examines the effects of exposure to online video

game violence on Chinese adolescents attitudes towards violence, empathy and

7
aggressive behavior. Results or analyses show that playing violent video game on the

internet was associated with greater tolerance of violence, a lower emphatic attitude

and more aggressive behavior.

Furthermore, online game addicts are more aggressive behavior and lower emphatic

attitude which may affect the academic performance of students. Negative impacts of

online games are showed. The study will seeks to know about the impact of online

gaming addiction towards the self-confidence of grade – 11 students of its increase or

decrease.

Theoretical / Conceptual Framework

Self-efficacy theory was developed within the framework of a social cognitive theory (

Bandura, 1986). Bandura poses self-confidence as a common cognitive mechanism for

mediating people’s motivation, thought patterns, emotional reactors, and behavior. The

theory was originally proposed to account for the different results achieved by the

diverse methods used in clinical psychology for treating anxiety. It has since been

expanded and applied to other domains of psychosocial functioning, including

motivation, cognitive skill acquisition, career choice and development, health and

exercise behavior, and motor performance.

 CHAPTER III
METHODOLOGY

In this chapter it covered collections of responses of the respondents towards certain

issue that researches are focused on. This chapter discussed the research design,

environment, sampling procedure, research instrument and data gathering. With this,

the responses from the respondents are the vital key for the researchers towards the

interpretation and analyzation on how online gaming affect the self-confidence of Grade

11 students.

Research Design

The design used in the study is Quantitative Research Design. Specifically, Causal-

comparative type of research. Quantitative research is an inquiry into a social problem,

explain phenomena by gathering numerical data that are analyzed using mathematically

based method e.g. in particular statistics (Aliaga, 2002). A Causal-comparative research

is an attempt to identify a causative relationship between an independent variable and

dependent variable (Maheshwari, 2018). This type of research is useful in this study

because it will identify the impact of online gaming towards the self-confidence of Grade

11 students.

Research Respondents

The respondents of this study are all mobile legends players in Liloan National

Technical-Vocational High School specifically Grade 11 students. They are selected

using the Simple Random Sampling which uses Slovins formula with a standard 5%

10
margin of error. The researchers identified mobile legends players in Grade 11 on

different strands. Active players of mobile legends has a total population of 53 students,

39 males and 14 females. The respondents of the study has an average age of 15.

Research Environment

The research will be conducted at Liloan National Technical-Vocational High School

that has been located at the heart of Poblacion, Liloan, Southern Leyte. The school was

established on the year 2012, and headed by Mr. Wilfredo S. Mosong Principal 1, the

area of the school is about 2 hectares with a total population of 1633 including 76

teaching staff, 6non-teaching staff and 1551 enrollees. This school offers Academic

Strands and TVL track. Academic strands includes Humanities and Social Sciences

(HUMSS), Accountancy, Business And Management (ABM) and General Academic

Strand (GAS). Technical-Vocational and Livelihood (TVL) on the other hand, includes

Shielded Metal Arc Welding (SMAW), Bread and Pastry (BPP) and Electrical Installation

and Maintenance (EIM). LNTVHS is an integrated Technical-Vocational High School

which has Senior High School and Junior High School. The school has 5 laboratories

including TVL, Cookery, Housekeeping, Beauty Care and Computer Lab.

Sampling Procedure

Simple Random Sampling is a subset of a statistical population in which each member

of the subset has an equal probability of being chosen (Adam, 2019). A Simple Random

Sampling is meant to be valid and unbiased. Using the Simple Random the researchers

obtain 47 respondents using Slovins Formula and these respondents will be randomly

selected.

11
Date Gathering Procedure

The researchers first send a letter of request to the Admin Office for approval of

conducting the research. When the permission is obtained the researcher will start the

research. In gathering the data, the researchers made questionnaires will be provided,

distributing the questionnaires to all randomly selected respondents. Bottommost, the

collected data from the respondents will be reflected on the paper and assures that the

data is valid.

Research Instrument
