Research Design

This research will use the descriptive-evaluative, descriptive-

comparative, and descriptive-correlational research designs.

Descriptive-evaluative design will be used to determine and analyse

the profile of the respondents.

( example)

Research Locale (where the research will be done/ )

The research will be conducted in all private hospitals in Valenzuela

City. There are 8 private hospitals in the city. Hospital A has 100 bed
capacity and employs 50 nurses, hospital B has 110 bed capacity and 60
nurses…………………..

Population and Sampling Technique (total population first)

There is a total of 1,000 nurses working in the 8 private hospital. The

sample size of 282 nurses was acquired by using the Cochran’s formula.
They will be randomly selected.

Random sampling technique will be used. The number of participants

will be determined using Cochran’s formula.

Participants/Respondents/Population and Sampling of the Study (who

will be the respondents? List them like in the table below)
 Public Secondary school teachers I – III who are at least one year in

the service and who belong to any of the public secondary schools in

Valenzuela City, their master teachers, and school principals were the

respondents of this study. There is a total of twenty-five (25) principals, one

hundred twenty-six (126) Master teachers, and 1901 junior high school and

senior high school teachers in Valenzuela City’s public secondary schools.

Because of the big number of the population of public secondary school

teachers, purposive multi sampling was used in selecting the teachers that

was proportionate to the number of school principals and master teachers.

Cochran’s method was used to get the number of teacher respondents

for this study. A total of 654 participants out of 892 (estimated number of

particpants at 45% of the total population per participating school) which

accounted for at a total of 73.32% retrieval.

Each of the participants were also given a unique code based on the

school where they are currently teaching.an example is School 1A with a

partipant coded as 1A01, 1A02, 1A03, etc. The same goes with the rest of

the school such as School 2B has 2B01, 2B02, 2B03, etc.
