CHAPTER I
INTRODUCTION
This chapter presents the background of the study, the statement of the
problem, the significance of the study and its scope and delimitations.
Background of the Study
Online game is a video game that is played through internet or any other
computer network available. It became a usual past time for all ages.
The internet introduced Farmville, treasure hunts and war games to
occupy the gaming enthusiasts. In often observe ways for any age, many of
online games can affect both mental and physical health.
Mature adults monitoring their own screen time with online games can
learn some valuable lessons that will influence health and wellness both through
these facts. Young adults should be limited in game playing when that activity
interferes with accomplishing home and school requirements. Behaviors will
become obvious when the game time on the computer is curtailed or eliminated,
so preventing is a better road to pursue for mental and physical goal and health
(AAP Organization, 2012).
In this new era of technology online gaming has become more popular
among teenager as it can be played whether on smart phone, tablet or computer.
As it become accessible almost anywhere at any time, all range of age are now
possible to be addicted into playing online video game which at the end of the

day, they become less care about themselves, their performances at school or
workplace and their social life. In addition to that, player can also now access
their game progress anywhere they went as most of the online gaming nowadays
enable player to store and save their data on cloud storage (Cortes, M.D et. al,
2012).
Many teachers, parents and other concerned organizations and people
continuously clamor for a tighter clamp over computer gaming. Protest mainly
focused on how the trend is becoming a cause of distraction among students in
their studies.
Online games are created to be an entertainment during leisure time.
However, students nowadays are being addicted to online games in a prolong
period of time. This makes them have a several changes to their physical and
mental state. This research was conducted because of the rising number of
students playing online games and by that many students become addicted. In
that way it effects on their physical health such as not eating on time and mental
health or behavior.
The above mentioned premises, the researchers find the needs to conduct
the study to determine the effects of online games to the physical and mental
health of the selected Computer Programming 1102 gamers.

CHAPTER II
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE AND STUDIES
This chapter presents the review of related literature and studies, the
conceptual models of the study, the research assumptions and the definition of
terms used in this study.
Related Literature
The following literatures are found to be related to the study as it focuses
on the effects of online games to the physical and mental health.
The Effects of Online Game: A study on Online Game Addiction
Some claimed that playing online games is one way to release stress and
fill their free time. While some said that too much game can affect individual's
mind and attitude. For example, people who play games are constantly feeling
tired. When someone spends more time in playing online game, some of them
may end up with being addicted to it. Friends and surrounding environment plays
a big part in influencing gamers towards playing online game as the city with
better internet connection and easy access to computer will make it easier for the
people to gain the access to online game. (Dini Fadhli Najimuddin, Shamsul
Naim Jefri et. al., 2014)
Effects of Online Gaming on Young People and Children
In United Kingdom, the research done by David Rudd (2011) stated that

the addiction in playing online game is believed to drive someone to extreme
consequences so much so that from some evidence demonstrated, parents tend
to have concerns about their child's future and health. While the health could be
an issue due to lack of exercise but failing to focus on their education and lack of
future job prospects has no strong solid evidence to indicate this is a true thus
have no findings about the matter.
Online Gaming Addiction in Children and Adolescents
Online gaming can also become a dysfunctional media focused coping
strategy (Thalemann, 2009). Researcher claims that teenagers tend to use
online games to cope up with their stress.
Internet Gaming Addiction
Internet Gaming Disorder is proposed as a disorder, it is still discussed
how much this disorder is caused by the gaming activity itself, or whether it is to
some extent an effect of other disorders. Research suggests that excessive
online gaming may lead to symptoms commonly experienced by game
enthusiasts, namely salience, mood modification, craving, and tolerance
(Wolfling, Grusser and Thalemann, 2008; Young, 2009; Hsu, Wen and Wu, 2009;
Ko et al., 2009; Mehroof and Griffiths, 2010).

Related Studies
According to the study created by Eshrat Zamani, PhD, Maliheh Chashmi,
MSc, and Nasim Hedayati, DDS (2013) claims that there was a significant
positive correlation between students' computer games addiction and their
physical and mental health in dimensions of physical health, anxiety and
sleeplessness There was a significant negative relationship between addictions
to computer games and impaired social functioning.
Based on the literature review that has been done, this paper will find out
the effects of online games to the physical and mental health of the selected
Computer Programming 1102 students. It is hypothesized that those who are
spending more time playing online video game will lead to addiction and it might
affects their health.
Theoretical Framework
This chapter has a single purpose: to describe the computer game as a
subject for theoretical study, with a special focus on its relationship to narratives.
Brenda Laurel has tried to describe the computer with terms from
dramaturgy(1991), Theodor Nelson has proposed to examine computers like
examining movies(1990), Peter Bogh Andersen has tried to apply
semiotics(1990), George P. Landow has used poststructuralist literary
theory(1992, 1997). All of these initially assume a correspondence between their

theory and the new field of study. Espen Aarseth has described this as
theoretical imperialism (1997, p.16).
This work leads to a theory of computer games, a theory that tries to
account for the primary qualities of the computer game, the primary conflicts, and
the areas of the greatest variation between different games.
People can learn many complicated behaviours, attitudes, expectations,
beliefs and perceptual schemata through observation and participation in video
games. And, as they observe and perform these new behaviours, they are also
learning scripts. Scripts are well-learned and well-rehearsed concepts often
involving an understanding of causation, goals and plans of action (Abelson,
1981; Anderson, Benjamin, & Bartholow, 1998; Schank & Abelson, 1977).
Research Assumptions
The assumptions that pursued in this study were the following:
1. There are no effects of online games to the physical health of the
students.
2. There are no effects of online games to the mental health of the
students.
Definition of Terms Used in the Study
The following terms used as they are operationally and theoretically

defined for purposes of clarity and better understanding:
Effects. This pertains to the change which is a result or consequence of
an action or other cause;
Gamers. This pertains to a person who plays video games or participates
in role-playing games;
Mental Health. This pertains to a person’s condition with regard to their
psychological and emotional well-being;
Online Games. This pertains to the games that are played over some
form of computer network, most often the internet;
Physical Health. This pertains to the onset of modern medicine would
have considered someone physical healthy if he or she was not stricken with a
serious illness; and
Students. This pertains to a person who is studying in order to enter a
particular profession.

CHAPTER III
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
This chapter presents the method of research used, the sources of data,
the data gathering instrument, the data gathering procedure and the statistical
treatment of data.
Research Design
This study utilized the phenomenology research design to determine the
effects of online games to the physical and mental health of the selected
Computer Programming 1102 gamers at Antipolo City Senior High School.
Phenomenology is an approach to qualitative research that concentrate on
the similarity of a lived experience within a particular group. Arriving at a
description of the nature of the particular phenomenon is the essential goal of the
approach (Creswell, 2013).

CHAPTER IV
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
This chapter deals with the presentation, analysis and interpretation of
data gathered in this study.
Statement of the Problem Number 1:
What are the effects of social media of the selected Computer
Programming 1102 students?
According to Nadkarni and Hofmann (2012) Facebook is also used for
self-presentation while Peluchette and Karl (2010) further mentioned that some
students share inappropriate materials on Facebook in order to get the attention
of their classmates. Teacher use of Facebook is received to have a positive
effect on students where it is argued that it increases their motivation and
learning (Mazer et. al.2007). (Gross,2009) for that reason, this research had
been carried out in order to observe the attitudes and Facebook usage of
students and to examine behaviors of students on social media, especially
Facebook. Learning via virtual world also had been analyzed by Zhang, et al.
(2015) stated that the use of social networks can satisfy esteem as users can
present themselves to friends who think similarly.

According to Nadkarni and Hofmann (2012) Facebook is also used for
self-presentation while Peluchette and Karl (2010) further mentioned that some
students share inappropriate materials on Facebook in order to get the attention
of their classmates.
Since the 2000’s, there has been worldwide internet penetration and
technological advances such as smart phones with free communication methods
(Facebook, WhatsApp, Viber, etc.) It is argued that shift in student habits will also
cause shifts in their behaviors. Facebook is also used for self-presentation

What are the possible solutions to avoid the bad influence of social media
to the behavior and attitude of Computer Programming 1102 students?
Kord (2009) confirmed that the involvement of students in social media
has increased considerably since 2004. Boyd (2010), in his study reported most

teenagers and students use social media often to interact with their peers,
sharing information and update latest news, sometimes they reformulate their
personalities therefor getting their social lives off the ground. Boyd in his study
also mentioned that students spend several hours a day attending to different
social media sites even during their formal classes and study hours which create
destruction and reducing the quality time to focus on their studies.
Question #8:
