CHAPTER 1

THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND

Introduction

Social Media is a series of websites and applications designed to allow

people to share content quickly, efficiently and in real time. Most people today

define social media as applications on their smart phone or tablet, but the truth is,

the ability to share photos, opinions, event etc. In real time transforming the way

we do life and it is also transforming the way we do business, (Hudson 2017).

Social Media’s effect on our ability to interact and communicate is visible

throughout all areas of society, so what does this mean for interpersonal

communication? According to Paul Booth, PhD., an assistant professor of media

and cinema studies in the college of communication at DePaul University in

Chicago, Social Media certainly effects how we engage with one another across

all venues and ages. There is a shift in the way we communicate; rather than

face-to-face interaction, we’re tending to prefer medicated communication and

we’d rather than chat or e-mail than meet; we’d rather text than talk on the

phone. Experts agree that clinicians must be aware that people are changing the

way we communicate. “we may rely on the weak connections we’re making on

social media more than on the strong connections we might have when we’re

meeting face-to-face” Booth says.

The Impacts of Social Media may vary. Using Social Media can improve

our interpersonal communication with others because of its wide range of

connection, we are able to talk with people who is miles away. Since that social
 PAGE

media normally became part of our lives, it has different impacts that can affect

interpersonal communication.

This is why the researchers is motivated to conduct a study about the

impact of Social Media in Interpersonal Communication as Perceived by Senior

High School HUMSS-12 of Nicolites Montessori School S.Y. 2017-2018.

Background of the Study

In the new advancement of Social Media in Electronic Technology

progressing everyday, it’s rising popularity in society, and it’s constant, continued

use within the society, social media has become the biggest platform for

communication throughout the world. Whether business, advertising and

marketing, charities and groups for raising awareness and fund raising or

families, friends and individuals simply seeking information; wanting to build and

maintain relationships with those around them, near and far, the purpose of

social media allows for one specific task to be executed efficiently and effectively

in easiest possible way – spreading a message.

With the world swallowing up this new means of communication and with

social media usage progressively continuing to skyrocket, this form of technology

opens up a new channel of tightly woven interconnectivity and interactivity with

the individuals forever changing the way the world population interacts,

communicates, spreads it messages and ultimately forms relationships. And as

statistics, activities, frequencies and volume of social media users continue to

rise along with the amount of time users spend consuming social media

platforms per day, while interpersonal communication relationships and social

skills continue to diminish, two important questions to emerge – the first one
 PAGE

regarding why a significant social media every single day in such volumes, while

concrete interpersonal relationships slowly take a back seat and the second

question ultimately asking how such time – consuming virtual relationships with

individuals they cross paths with in reality.

But these questions together collectively ask the most important question

of all what does this mean for interpersonal communication in using social media.

It is in the light of the foregoing study that the researchers would like to

determine the impacts of social media in Interpersonal Communication as

Perceived by Senior High School HUMSS – 12 of Nicolites Montessori School,

S.Y. 2017-2018.

Theoretical Framework

This study is anchored on the theory of Berger (2015). It’s through

interpersonal communication that you can show the real you. But the invention

(or intervention) of social media affects the way you want the world to see you.

You might feel that everyone looks better on social media can either make you

feel instant happiness or in the worst scenario, a sudden loser.

Conceptual Framework

Applying the foregoing theory of Berger (2015), it’s through interpersonal

communication that you can show the real you, but the invention (or intervention)

of social media affects the way you see the world.

The research paradigm of this study is illustrated in Figure 1.

CHAPTER 2

REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES

This chapter presents the Review and Related Literature and Studies that

have bearing the present study. It also includes the researchers taken from

theses and dissertations that are significant to the present undertaking.

A. Review of Related Literature

Foreign

According to Ultius (2015), it is clear enough that social media

fundamentally exists in order to enhance interpersonal relationships. The scope

of social media is thus global, and the technology opens up possibilities for

communication that were almost literally unthinkable prior to its advent. It is now

possible to keep in touch with friends and family, no matter how far one moves

away from them; and especially through facebook. It is also possible to find long

lost persons from one’s own past in an extremely easy and straight forward way.

These can be understood as real gains for the sustence of interpersonal

relationships.

According to Zakaria (2015), it can not only bring people together, but also

(and somewhat paradoxically) alienate people from each other. Social Media

may cause people to become absent from their immediate situate, because

people begin to invest significant amounts to their attention and energy into

abstract realm of virtual space.

According to Reider (2014), our communication over social media

is affecting positive and negatively. Young people are using social networks to
 PAGE
11

engage in various content and express themselves not only for socializing and

leisure, but also for public issues or topics of interest.

According to Rampages (2015), whether or not people want to accept it,

social media has severe negative impacts on their daily lives. Despite some of

its vast benefits, they as culture have to limit their use of social media to a

manageable amount. Social media needs to be recognized as a tool to be

utilized to a certain extent and not let it take over their lives like it seems to be

heading towards everyday.

Local

According to Dreemurr (2016), Social networking is a tool for a better

communication. You are able to communicate with other people especially with

the OFW’s. The social networking apps like Skype, Facebook and Messenger

are the tools for fast communication and where you can share your thoughts

and interests.

According to Tony (2017), People spend a lot of time on social media.

This has reduced the amount of tine people spend with each other. They also

end up mainly creating virtual relationships. This hampers the ability of these

people to properly communicate with each other in real life.

According to Ease Technology (2016), Social media has also made it

easier to connect to friends and families more than ever. Communicating online

is now the latest trend in communication, and this improve the way we

communicate, it also has downsides. There is more people who is active in

socializing online than in person. Also interpersonal communication skills of an

individual is being affected in the process.

 PAGE

B. Review of Related Studies

Foreign

According to Drussel (2012), increased utilization of computers and

cellphones to communicate, task that have historically required interpersonal

skills and face to face interaction, may be altering the means in which young

people attain and practice skills that are necessary to function in their lives.

According to Norah (2015), Since social media communication

technologies have appeared, they have been affected by human behavior,

thought, relationship and lifestyles. These social networks attracted people

around the world because it gives them chance to communicate with other

people.

According to Hinduja and Patchin (2008), it was found that benefits of

online interaction include that it provides a means in which to learn the ability to

relate to others, express thoughts and feelings in a healthy way and practice

critical thinking skills that communicating with others on the internet is an

opportunity to explore self-identity and enhance self-discovery.

Local

According to Cruz & Tombado (2010), Social Media influences

productivity and Interpersonal Communication. It allows them to stay connected

and updater with their social network even during work hours, and it also help

them accomplish their work-related tasks and it also saves as a venue for

information seeking.
 PAGE
13

According to FMA (2015), Social Media serves as the internet to Majority

of Filipino online users. The Pervasive use of social media in the Philippines

greatly affected the manner by which Filipinos interact and communicate.

According to Papa (2002), An interpersonal relationship is a relatively

long-term association between two or more people. This association may be

based on emotions like love and liking, regular business interactions, or some

other social commitments. These people can affect the user’s interpersonal

relationship with other people close to him/her. This influence can either be

good or bad for the user.

C. Synthesis of the Study

Both foreign and local researchers stated in the study attempted to

present various ideas on the Impacts of Social Medial in Interpersonal

Communication Nicolites Montessori School S.Y. 2017-2018.

The study made by Tony (2017) is related to the present study because it

shows the details and information regarding the Impacts of Social Media in

Interpersonal Communication.

However, the present study differed from the review study of many

aspects because those are based from the perspectives and ideas of the

researchers. And the researchers believe that those were included in this chapter

will help to familiarize the information that are relevant and similar to the present

study.
