Depth Interviews

This sequential explanatory mixed-methods study determined the factors and levels of student engagement among the 493 students in Northwestern Mindanao State College of Science and Technology, Tangub City, Philippines. The quantitative data gathered using survey questionnaires revealed the following: the students’ levels of perception on the importance of competence, autonomy, relatedness, student-teacher transaction, and student-institution transaction to students’ engagement are very important; the levels of affective engagement, cognitive engagement, and behavioral engagement are very high, and social engagement is high; the factors and levels of student engagement have positive correlation; and the student-teacher transaction is the best predictor of student engagement. Using in-depth interviews of 12 participants picked using criterion purposive sampling, the qualitative data, analyzed using Braun and Clarke analysis, arrived at nine themes for the importance of the factors to students’ engagement and 15 themes for the students’ engagement in the four dimensions. The factors of student engagement are important since students are given the freedom to accomplish their dreams and develop themselves through good relationships with classmates, desirable personal and professional qualities of the teachers, and the support of the college. The students’ engagement in the four dimensions can be attributed to the goals that they have to achieve, the support from teachers and the school, their active participation, the guidance from the more knowledgeable others and the harmonious relationship with peers. It is recommended that the College invest in various support services to create a pleasant learning environment, devote itself to faculty training to prepare them for teaching, and implement activities that will enhance student engagement.

Quantitative Results

Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate the emotional tone and verbal behavior of social media users who self-identified as having tinnitus and/or hyperacusis that caused self-described negative consequences on daily life or health. Research Design and Method An explanatory mixed-methods design was utilized. Two hundred “initial” and 200 “reply” Facebook posts were collected from members of a tinnitus group and a hyperacusis group. Data were analyzed via the LIWC 2015 software program and compared to typical bloggers. As this was an explanatory mixed-methods study, we used qualitative thematic analyses to explain, interpret, and illustrate the quantitative results. Results Overall, quantitative results indicated lower overall emotional tone for all categories (tinnitus and hyperacusis, initial and reply), which was mostly influenced by higher negative emotion. Higher levels of authenticity or truth were found in the hyperacusis sample but not in the tinnitus sample. Lower levels of clout (social standing) were indicated in all groups, and a lower level of analytical thinking style (concepts and complex categories rather than narratives) was found in the hyperacusis sample. Additional analysis of the language indicated higher levels of sadness and anxiety in all groups and lower levels of anger, particularly for initial replies. These data support prior findings indicating higher levels of anxiety and depression in this patient population based on the actual words in blog posts and not from self-report questionnaires. Qualitative results identified 3 major themes from both the tinnitus and hyperacusis texts: suffering, negative emotional tone, and coping strategies. Conclusions Results from this study suggest support for the predominant clinical view that patients with tinnitus and hyperacusis have higher levels of anxiety and depression than the general population. The extent of the suffering described and patterns of coping strategies suggest clinical practice patterns and the need for research in implementing improved practice plans.
