Background of the Study
Therefore, the researchers believe that conducting this study is essential
in addressing a growing concern among senior high school students. Sleep
deprivation has become a prevalent issue, particularly among TVL students
who struggles in well-being. By investigating its effects on well-being, this
research seeks to provide valuable insights into how lack of sleep influences
students’ cognitive abilities, concentration, and overall productivity.
Furthermore, the findings of this study may serve as a basis for developing
strategies or interventions that could help students improve their sleeping habits
and, in turn, enhance their well-being. Understanding this issue is crucial in
promoting better learning outcomes and overall well-being among senior high
school students.
REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE
LOCAL STUDIES
According to (Arboleda 2022) This study evaluated the mental health
and sleep quality of high school seniors at a private institution in the Philippines.
This research employed a descriptive-correlational method. A stratified random
sampling method was employed to choose the 328 senior high school students.
Data was gathered using two established psychological tools: the Pittsburgh
Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and Ryff's Scale of Psychological Well-Being
(RPSWB), evaluated through descriptive and inferential statistical methods.
The results showed low sleep quality and a moderate degree of psychological
well-being among senior high school students. The Pearson product-moment
correlation showed a notable connection between sleep quality and sex, year
level, and academic strand; a robust correlation between psychological well-
being and academic strand; and no meaningful relationship between sleep
quality and psychological well-being. To sum up, students can achieve a
satisfactory state of psychological well-being even with inadequate sleep
quality. Cooperative initiatives involving guidance counselors, school
administrators, and educators can assist senior high school students in
improving their learning and cultivating healthier sleep hygiene habits.
FOREIGN STUDIES
According to (Fjell & Walhovd 2025) Many believe that sleep is crucial
for the health of the human brain. In this section, we explore the support for this
perspective, concentrating on typical fluctuations in sleep habits. We examine
the roles of sleep and emphasize the contradictory consequences of theories
viewing sleep as an adaptive trait compared to the theory suggesting that sleep
aids in the removal of metabolic waste from the brain. We additionally assess
the idea that sleep actively contributes to the consolidation of memories. In
conclusion, we examine studies regarding potential impacts of long-term sleep
deprivation on brain wellness. We discover that the support for a causal
influence of sleep on human brain health is unexpectedly limited compared to
the level of focus on sleep in both science and society. Although there are
recognized links between sleep characteristics and elements of brain health,
findings are usually inconsistent between studies and metrics, and it remains
unclear how much changes in sleep patterns signify symptoms or causes.
Particularly, the claim that extended sleep 8 hours is generally advantageous
for long-term brain health in humans appears to lack empirical backing. We
propose avenues for future research to build a robust knowledge base
regarding the role of sleep in brain health, emphasizing longitudinal studies with
regular sampling, consideration of individual variations, and more ecologically
valid intervention research.
According to (Barber, Rupprecht & Munz 2015) This study looked into
poor sleep hygiene as a behavioral risk that could jeopardize psychological
and social well-being. Although the relationship between sleep and wellness
is well recognized, less is known about how sleep hygiene may affect
wellbeing. The findings, which demonstrated mediation effects for both
models, showed that psychological strain and hassle evaluations were the
only factors that mediated the relationship between sleep hygiene and
wellbeing. These results suggest that sleep may influence the cognitive
evaluation process, which in turn may affect wellbeing.
According to (Lemola, Thomas, Ledermann & Friedman 2015) While
there is ample evidence linking poorer subjective well-being to worse subjective
sleep quality, there are fewer and less consistent studies examining the
relationship between objective sleep metrics and subjective well-being.We
examined whether subjective well-being was influenced by subjective sleep
quality and whether actigraphy-measured sleep duration and quality were
associated with subjective well-being using data from the Survey of Mid-Life in
the United States (MIDUS). Was used to measure sleep duration, variability of
sleep duration, sleep onset delay, and time awake following sleep onset
throughout a seven-day period.The Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index was used to
measure subjective sleep quality, while the Mood and Anxiety Symptom
Questionnaire and the Satisfaction with Life Scale were used to measure
psychological distress symptoms and positive psychological well-being. High
daily fluctuations in sleep duration were linked to lower subjective well-being
scores in both white and African American individuals, controlling for age,
gender, marital status, education, and body mass index. On the other hand,
subjective well-being controlling confounders and other sleep factors did not
correlate with sleep length, sleep onset latency, or time awake following sleep
onset. Furthermore, subjective sleep quality acted as a partial mediating factor
in the association between well-being and variations in sleep length. The results
indicate that low subjective sleep quality and poor subjective well-being are
associated with significant daily variability in sleep duration, which is greater
than average.

THEORETICAL FRAMEWORKS
Restorative Theory
According to Oswald's Restoration Theory, you must take time to rest in
order to replenish the energy you expend during the day and maintain your
health and productivity. The restoration idea of sleep was initially proposed by
Oswald in 1931. extending the restoration ideas that his predecessor Johannis
Mayer had found. Sleep is essential for restorative functions, according to
Oswald.
He asserts that lack of sleep can lead to mental health issues and even
death. One of the first theories of restoration is the restorative theory of sleep.
Its main thesis—that restoration only occurs during rest periods—has
significant ramifications for biological processes and human health. Often
referred to as the Father of Sleep Medicine, Dr. William C. Dement published
Oswald's Restoration Theory for the first time in the 1920s (1927).
According to Welsh, Mai, Ellis, Christian Restoration Theory, overcoming
the effects of sleep deprivation on unethical behavior; An extension of
integrated self-control theory, previous research has utilized an ego depletion
perspective to establish a self-regulatory model linking sleep deprivation to
immoral behavior via depletion (Barnes, Schaubroeck, Huth, & Ghumman,
2011; Christian & Ellis, 2011; Welsh, Ellis, Christian, & Mai, 2014). We expand
this research by moving from depletion to examine a more in-depth, process-
focused view of self-control. We employ integrative self-control theory (Kotabe
& Hofmann, 2015) to identify two key moderators in the relationship between
sleep and unethical behavior. Although previous research has mainly focused
on the negative effects associated with diminished control capacity – such as
insufficient sleep – we suggest that factors influencing control motivation and
control effort are also crucial to the self-regulatory process. At first, we explore
the role of control motivation, suggesting that a person’s sense of power affects
how sleep deprivation correlates with exhaustion by promoting intentional, goal-
directed actions that mitigate the exhausting effects of insufficient sleep.
Additionally, we investigate how control effort affects outcomes, proposing that
reflection affects the relationship between depletion and unethical behavior,
implying that those who are depleted are less likely to engage in unethical
actions when their levels of contemplation are high. Three studies—one
manipulating sleep deprivation in a lab environment and two exploring natural
variations in sleep quality and quantity—offer consistent support for our
improved model that merges mediation and moderation, advancing self-
regulatory research linking sleep deprivation to unethical behavior.

SCOPE AND LIMITATIONS
The study focuses on the effect of sleep deprivation on Grade 11
Technical-Vocational-Livelihood (TVL) students of St. Matthew Academy of
Cavite for school year 2024-2025. The study aims to talk about how sleep
deprivation influences the concentration, memory, and performance of the
students. The study also talks about how sleep deprivation influences their well-
being, which includes physical, mental, and productivity.
The study Is limited to selected Grade 11 TVL students of St. Matthew
Academy of Cavite only. It does not cover other grade levels, academic tracks,
and schools. The study considers only sleep deprivation and its effects on
student performance and health. Other variables that could influence student
performance, e.g., nutrition, stress level, or social environment, are not part of
the research scope.
Since the research would be conducted on the basis of responses from
surveys, its findings will be susceptible to individual experience and honesty of
students in their response. And, the recommendations and findings would hold
only for the year 2024-2025 and could not be extended to other years or to
other colleges.

Research Cite
This investigation will be conducted at Cavite's St. Matthew Academy.
In order to better comprehend the participants' experiences with the impact of
shortage on their welfare, the researcher will employ the interview technique to
elicit detailed perspectives from them. The researcher intends to gather more
information about the distinct experiences of the students enrolled in the
Technical Vocational Livelihood (TVL) Home Economics track through in-
person interviews.
Selection Criteria and Participants
The survey's participants are 11th graders participating in the Technical
Vocational Livelihood (TVL) Home Economics strand at St. Matthew Academy
of Cavite. These youngsters, who range in age from 15 to 19, are immediately
affected by their sleep habits in terms of their general well-being, academic
achievement, and mental health. A total of thirty pupils will be the study's target
population.
The researcher will employ purposive sampling, a technique in which
individuals are selected according to specific characteristics relevant to the
study. In this case, the respondents will be selected based on their involvement
in the TVL Home Economics strand and their capacity to explain the effects of
sleep-deprivation. The purpose of the study is to learn how they perceive and
feel about sleep deprivation and how it affects their overall health, academic
achievement, and personal growth. Understanding how sleep deprivation
affects their academic performance, social relationships, and physical and
mental health will be the main goal.
Data Collection
The researchers will first seek approval from the principal of St.
Matthew Academy of Cavite through a consent letter before conducting any
interviews or gathering data from the Grade 11 Technical Vocational Livelihood
(TVL) Home Economics students. On the day of data collection, the
researchers will conduct one-on-one, face-to-face interviews with the selected
students to gain a deeper understanding of their experiences regarding the
effects of lack of sleep on their well-being.
The interviews will be conducted in a private, quiet setting to ensure
comfort and openness, allowing participants to express their thoughts and
feelings freely. Informed consent will be obtained from all participants, ensuring
that they fully understand the nature of the study, their voluntary participation,
and their right to withdraw at any time without facing any consequences. Ethical
standards will be strictly followed throughout the research process (Beauchamp
& Childress, 2013). Participants will be reassured about the confidentiality and
anonymity of their responses, and data will be anonymized to protect their
identities.
The interviews will be audio-recorded with the consent of the
participants to ensure accuracy during transcription and analysis. After
completing the interviews, the researchers will carefully review the recordings
and transcriptions for completeness, accuracy, and clarity. Finally, the
researchers will encode and analyze the data, following ethical standards in the
handling of sensitive information. This will ensure that the privacy and
confidentiality of the participants are maintained at all stages of the research.
Data Analysis
For this study, narrative analysis will be used to analyze the information
obtained from interviews with St. Matthew Academy of Cavite Grade 11
Technical Vocational Livelihood (TVL) Home Economics students. Narrative
analysis is one kind of qualitative data analysis that places an emphasis on
participant stories and unique experiences. Understanding how people
perceive their lived events and the meanings they assign to them is made
easier with this method. Since the study examines how a lack of resources,
support, or other factors affects students' well-being, narrative analysis will
allow us to gain a deeper understanding of the unique experiences and
viewpoints of each student.
The first step in the narrative analysis process will be to transcribe the
interview audio recordings. In order to identify significant themes, patterns, and
recurring motifs in the students' descriptions of resource scarcity and how it
impacts their welfare, each interview will be thoroughly examined. The
researchers will be particularly interested in how the kids describe their
challenges, emotions, and coping mechanisms. These narratives will be
compared in order to identify any recurrent themes or variations in the
experiences of the different respondents.
The researchers will next divide the stories into appropriate categories,
focusing on subjects like academic success, mental health, personal growth,
and interpersonal connections. This categorization will help identify the specific
aspects of wellness that are most affected by a lack of support and resources.
The results will be presented in a way that highlights the experiences of the
students both individually and in groups, while also offering insights into the
broader effects of the deficit on the students' overall health.
The researchers aim to answer the research questions and capture the
essence of the students' experiences by providing a comprehensive, narrative-
based explanation of how the students' lack of resources impacts their well-
being.
Role of Researcher
When gathering data, the researchers will take on the roles of Expert
versus Learner and Detachment versus Involvement. The researchers will not
assert that they are experts on the effects of sleep deprivation on students'
health. To better comprehend the students' lived experiences, the researchers
will instead adopt the perspective of a learner. This implies that rather than
imposing their own presumptions or ideas, the researchers will approach the
study with an open mind and make an effort to comprehend the difficulties and
perspectives of the students. Their individual experiences with sleep
deprivation and the effects it has on their general health, mental stability, and
academic performance will be the main focus of the study.
When interviewing and interacting with the subjects, the researchers will
try to strike a balance between participation and detachment. This will allow the
researchers to delve deeply into the lives of the students while maintaining
objectivity. By showing that you understand and care about the participants, you
may build rapport and trust and help them feel comfortable sharing sensitive
and private information. However, the researchers must also maintain
objectivity to avoid emotional bias or an excessive influence on the results. I will
keep a professional distance to preserve the integrity of the data collection
process, but the researcher's involvement will be focused on giving the students
a safe place to express themselves without fear of repercussions.

Methods of Validation
The researcher will apply Descriptive Validity and Interpretive Validity to
ensure data accuracy and authenticity.
Descriptive Validity focuses on accurately representing data collected
through interviews, ensuring participants' experiences regarding sleep
deprivation and its effects on well-being are documented truthfully, without
distortion. The researcher will record students’ statements about their sleep
habits, academic performance, and emotional states in their own words,
aligning with Maxwell's (1992) concept of primary understanding.
Interpretive Validity emphasizes understanding the meanings behind
participants' words. The researcher will explore deeper emotions, intentions,
and beliefs related to the impacts of sleep deprivation on mental health and
academic performance. By considering the context of participants’ experiences,
the researcher aims to faithfully capture their perspectives and construct
accurate interpretations of their lived realities.
These two validation methods ensures that the study's findings reflect
students’ experiences accurately while acknowledging the deeper meanings
and contexts influencing their perceptions regarding sleep deprivation's impact
on their well-being.
Potential Ethical Considerations
The researchers will follow Bryman and Bell's (2007) Principles of
Ethical Consideration to ensure that the study process is conducted in an
ethical manner. The researchers promise that no party involved in the study will
experience any negative consequences as a result of taking part. By
implementing all necessary safety precautions, participants will be shielded
from any physical, psychological, or emotional injury throughout the study.
Additionally, the privacy of every research participant will be strictly
protected. The Data Privacy Act of 2012, also known as Republic Act No.
10173, which guarantees the security and confidentiality of personal data, must
be followed by the researchers. The Data Privacy Act of 2012 requires that
personal information about individuals be protected, thus the researchers will
take every precaution when handling any data acquired for the study. This
entails making certain that any private or sensitive information about the kids'
health, sleeping patterns, or other characteristics will be kept private and not
disclosed without the required authorization. Additionally, the researchers will
ensure that the data is safely maintained and that only authorized study
participants may access it.
Participants will receive a detailed explanation of the study's purpose and
scope, and participation is completely voluntary. There won't be any
consequences if they leave at any time. Informed consent will also be obtained
from each participant and, if necessary, from their guardians, taking into
account the participants' age range.
By following these ethical guidelines, the researchers intend to carry out
this study in a conscientious and considerate way, prioritizing the rights and
welfare of all participants.
