And on how a person act within a specific activities, on how they socialize with others. Emotional thinking is also one of the focuses of this research that’s why psychology is the precise field here.

This research aims to discover how other things can affect in another thing. That student who participated in extracurricular activities would score higher, on an academic selfefficacy scale, than students who did not participate in extra-curricular activities. That some teachers or coordinators of a school can identify and understand what is the insights of a student in their activities and academic performance. To know that extracurricular activities is a big impact to students who have many priorities. It just a matter of time on how will a person manage a specific situation. “Self-efficacy is the belief in one’s capabilities to organize and execute the courses of action required to manage prospective situations.” (Albert Bandura) Perceived selfefficacy is a belief about their capabilities to do assigned tasks that can enhance influence over events that affect their lives. This belief determine how people think, feel, motivate themselves and how they behave. Having a strong understanding of self-efficacy can lead person’s fulfilment in many ways, can persuade a person’s desire or ambition in life; increase their level of motivation and their patience in difficulties of life. When a person believes he can achieve what he or she wants there is much possibility to attain it. A good sense of socializing with others can be a big impact to the self-efficacy of a person, because they are being supported and encourage. Being an intrapersonal and interpersonal person is a big influence in academic achievement of a student. One way a student want to engage in some extracurricular activities or organization is there is the place where they can be with their peers and engage in some activities that focuses on cooperative team building and reinforced with consistent adult support. When they began to see themselves as valued individuals, their perception is enabling their belief in their self to become stronger. Definitely, this is being concluded that those students who

2013 According to Lacey Hubbs Johnston, self-efficacy, self-concept and self-esteem are used to explain a student’s perceptions of their psychosocial environment. Self-efficacy is the belief in an individual’s ability to succeed at tasks with skill sets and abilities they possess (Bandura, 1977; Bong & Skaalvik, 2003). It also represents what the individuals believe they are capable of in certain situations. Academic selfefficacy is student perception of their capabilities relating directly to

Benefits of participating in extracurricular activities included having better grades, having higher standardized test scores and higher educational attainment, attending school more regularly, and having higher a higher self concept. Participants in out-of-school activities often learned skills such as teamwork and leadership while decreasing the likelihood of alcohol use and illicit drug use and related problem behaviors. Those who participate in out-of-school activities often have higher grade point averages, a decrease in absenteeism, and an increased connectedness to the school.

Kelepolo The Relationship between Participation in Extracurricular Activities and Utah’s Proficiency Assessments of Students in a Suburban School District Page # 1 University of Nevada Las Vegas May 2011 According to Everett N. Kelepolo, over the past century, extracurricular participation has progressively played a greater role in schools and in individual students‘lives (Knox, 2007). Research supports that extracurricular activities create positive benefits in educational outcomes such as better school attendance, low rates of discipline issues, higher academic achievement, and greater sense of school loyalty or spirit. Research also supports that students participating in extracurricular activities were more likely to be in college preparatory programs, achieve higher grades, and desire to enroll in and graduate from college (Videon, 2002).

This belief can influence events that affect a person’s life. Perceived self-efficacy determines how people feel, think, motivate them, and behave. It influences the choices they make, the effort they put forth, how persistent they are when confronted by obstacles, and how they feel. A strong sense of self-efficacy can enhance a person’s accomplishments in many ways. A strong sense of self-efficacy can influence a person’s aspirations; increase their level of motivation and their perseverance in the face of difficulties and setbacks.

2. Kimiko Fujita The Effects of Extracurricular Activities on the Academic Performance of Junior High Students The Master’s College 2004-2005 According to Kimiko Fujita, music, parental involvement, sports—all of these have an influence on how children perform academically. The way children choose to spend their free time can affect their school performance; it is not simply traditional in-class instruction that impacts academic achievement. “A study by the U. S. Department of Education revealed that students who participate in co-curricular activities are three times more likely to have a grade point average of 3.0 or better” than students who do not participate in co-curricular activities (Stephens & Schaben, 2002, para. 4).

INTERVIEW 1. Question # 1 As a student, why do you think it’s important to have self-efficacy? Mark Kate Garcia, 16 Attitudes and behavior of a student’s is what really matters in dealing with academic life. Having self-efficacy also means dreaming, ground-work, sees your personalities of who you really are, and faith in self. Catherine Canlas, 16 Having self-efficacy means building up confidence and participation in class because a lot of students are having difficulties when speaking in front or in class. Judith Guetta, 17 It is important to have a self-efficacy so we are able to do what fear us the most and to grab every opportunity we can get. Princess Dayao, 16 Yes, because we need to have the capability to balance our time. Jaimee Calderon, 16 It is important to have self-efficacy for us because for us to succeed our goals or task and to determine whether will I take a task or not. Chesca Bunda, 16 It is important because it is where the first step towards revealing your capabilities.

27

Deonas Codog, 18 As a student, it is important to have a self-efficacy simply because how other believe in you if you don’t believe in your own capability. We should believe in our self first before anything else. Believing in one self is one of our weapon to do our task well, it brings us in the brightest side to make our responsibility well. Jelyn Abadilla, 16 Because if you don’t have self-efficacy, how will you have or make your own progress? Raven Ramos, 15 As a student, self-efficacy is important because you need to believe that you can do things because if you don’t believe to yourself you won’t able to do things and you will decline task because you tend to think of negative things. Shayne Guinto, 16 Because being a student means studying with other but excelling individually. Self-efficacy is like the key to open the door to the talents a student has inside him or her. If you have self-efficacy you will be able to unleash your potentials. 2. Question #2 Why do you need to engage yourself in extracurricular activities? Is it really needed? Mary Kate Garcia, 16 Yes it is. I have experienced being crowded. Personally it’s important because it defines student different exposure. It also serves as an opportunity for them to

28

show that they have. Studying is not just about academics, it can also boost our self confidence once they are chosen to represent analysis etc. Catherine Canlas, 16 Yes, cope up with different people with their different attitudes and by these we will learn how to socialize with other people. Judith Guetta, 17 It’s really needed because it’s our chance to do some extracurricular activities and we need self-efficacy to do that. Princess Dayao, 16 Extracurricular activities is needed because this helps us to learn through experience and as the saying goes, experience is the best teacher and learning will not stop inside our classmates. Jaimee Calderon, 16 We need to engage ourselves in extracurricular activities for us to challenge ourselves for the contest. No it depends upon on you, on what skills you have. It is your choice. Chesca Bunda, 16 It is needed because it helps us know where we would excel specially if it is outside the academic aspect. Deonas Codog, 18 For me yes, because extracurricular enhance are skill helps us to be more productive at the same time engaging in extracurricular activities makes a person more knowledgeable.

29

Jelyn Abadilla, 16 For me, yes. It is important for you to have exposure, not only for grades but also for enhancing and developing your skills Raven Ramos, 15 Yes, I think extracurricular activities can enhance my skills and gives me more knowledge on a certain activity. Shayne Guinto, 16 Because through extracurricular activities, a student is able to show what he or she has and with that he or she will know what else he or she could improve. Through this activities he or she can be inspired by other and inspire others. 3. Question #3 How can a student balance their time in managing both extracurricular activities and their academic performance? Mary Kate Garcia, 16 They should always be aware of their priorities. When there is absence of time management, there would be a domino effect. A student should have organized plans and knows their study habits. It should be on your passion and interest. Student should have strong commitment and he or she should know the consequences. Everything you do, you do it with sacrifice. Catherine Canlas, 16 The students can balance their time by having time management. Don’t focus in only one. You should balance it to be equal.

30

Judith Guetta, 17 Student can manage both of these if they will have some reminder and if they will focus on important things. Princess Dayao, 16 A student should have great time management. Jaimee Calderon, 16 I think they manage or balance it by the day they are in extracurricular training and at night they are studying by themselves in their academic. Chesca Bunda, 16 Do your academic task ahead of time so the time left can be used for extracurricular activities. Deonas Codog, 18 A student can manage his or her time by listing the things that need to be done. Avoid procrastination such as being lazy, doing things that are not important and the most important is self management. Jelyn Abadilla, 16 They can manage both of them through having time management. Raven Ramos, 15 By relating and connecting the extracurricular activities into the academics, so that they can deepen their knowledge and enhance their skills. And through extracurricular activities it can help them to improve their academics. Shayne Guinto, 16

31

The only thing that will help a student manage his or her time is by knowing his or her priorities. He or she should know how much works he or she is capable and by accepting challenges he or she should know the responsibilities and consequences he or she would face. 4. Question #4 Do you experience stress with or without engaging in extracurricular activities? How? Mary Kate Garcia, 16 Apparently yes. Stress, time management breaks. When not being able to hold on the things you entered yourself, when that person is affected by his or her environment there would be a heavy burden and failure in responsibilities that will result to stress. Catherine Canlas, 16 Yes, because even doing academic activities make your brain work and you will think that you are doing a lot and it makes you tired easily which results to procrastinating. Judith Guetta, 17 Yes, because even though we’re not doing anything we still manage to think a lot of things about different activities in school. Princess Dayao, 16 Yes I have difficulties in balancing time. Jaimee Calderon, 16

32

Yes, because sometime if you doesn’t have an extracurricular activities it can pull your grade downward. So it is better to engage in that activity so that your grade will also be better. Chesca Bunda, 16 Yes, duue to the pile of paper works that is needed to be done in the field of academics. Deonas Codog, 18 Yes, because of us experience stress. There’s a lot of factors that makes a person stressful such as family problem, financial problem, school works and even love life I, myself experienced stress because of having conflict with my friends, issues that are not true and so on. Jelyn Abadilla, 16 Yes. I experience stress in just simple from my homework, projects, school works that are all related to academics. Raven Ramos, 15 I think I’m more stressed with extracurricular activities because instead of focusing on my academics I’m diverting my attention with the activities. But even extracurricular activities can cause stress to me, it can help me to manage my time. Shayne Guinto, 16 Yes, because there is stress in every part of our life and sometimes stress is what pushes us to our limits.

CONCLUSION Based on the findings of the study, the following conclusions were drawn: 1. Generally speaking, I thereby conclude that everything you do there is a domino effect not just within you but as well as the people around you or your environment. Extracurricular activities and academics have a big difference to us students. Academics are about our studying at our school itself. Extracurricular activities which will help us to enhance our capabilities, allows us to think deeper and of course more knowledge will come. Having self-efficacy is very important; it serves as a big factor to help us to accomplish a specific situation because we do our best to do that situation. 2. In this study majority of the students are female with an age of 16 years old. They are more conscious of the activities they do as well as on their physical appearance. In a stage of being a teenager, they experience so many feelings that also lead to them to think deeper in a wider perspective. 3.

Extracurricular activities do help to us students to make the most out within us and make the most of our knowledge. It has a big impact to us students. To raise again our self-esteem we should be able to join with other people. We should learn how to manage our time in handling school works between extracurricular activities.
