The researchers made use of a descriptive-qualitative type of research.

RESEARCH INSTRUMENT

This study serves as a comprehensive tool for data collection from respondents
enrolled in the Medical Technology Department at Misamis University, Ozamis City.
Adapted from a previous study conducted by Murad Odeh, S. (January 2020) titled
"Social Anxiety in Relation to Self-esteem among University Students in Jordan," the
questionnaire has been modified to suit the specific objectives of this research.

STATISTICAL TOOL

In this study, we employed utilizing Frequency Count and Percent

to analyze the distribution of gender, age, and year level. Additionally,
we used the Weighted Mean to assess the level of self-worth in areas
such as physical appearance, social circle, and academic achievements.
Furthermore, we conducted the Kruskal-Wallis H Test to explore the
correlation between self-worth and anxiety levels among the students.

CONCLUSIONS & RECOMMENDSTIONS:

Conclusion

Include implementing comprehensive mental health programs, fostering a

supportive environment, providing targeted interventions, and involving parents and
guardians. Further research is needed
to explore additional factors and the long-term
impact of interventions.

Recommendation
The research study concludes that there is a significant correlation between
anxiety and self-worth with specific areas or statuses in life. It suggests that interventions
targeted at these areas can help students cope with anxiety and improve their self-
worth.
