The data gathered from the respondents were categorized, coded, and

then analyzed with the aid of relevant computer software. Presented in


the following paragraphs are the specific statistical tools used in the
analyses.
To describe the profile of the respondents, as well as the quality of
life in terms of the dimensions earlier discussed, the percentage
distribution was used. The percentage distribution specifies the
category and the percentage of the total number of cases associated
with the category (Relative Frequency).
To test the hypothesis of no significant difference in the respondents’
perceptions of their quality of life, the Analysis of Variance
(ANOVA) was utilized. This statistical technique is used for testing
the hypothesis that the means among two or more subsets are equal
under the assumption that the populations from where the samples
were taken are normally distributed (http://www.itl.nist.gov/div898/
handbook).
For the purpose of determining the significant relationship between
the academic achievement and the quality of life of the respondents,
an initial indication of the relationship between variables was
garnered from cross-tabulations through the cell entries and the
measures of association. The independent variables were used as the
row variables and row percentages were computed. The results were
interpreted by comparing the row percentages down the columns. The
nature of the association between the variables was calculated with
the use of multiple regression analysis. This technique is used when
there are three or more measurement variables. One of the
measurement variables is the dependent (Y) variable. The rest of the
variables are the independent (X) variables. The purpose of a multiple
regression is to find an equation that best predicts the Y variable as a
linear function of the X variables
(http://udel.edu/~mcdonald/statmultreg.html).
