REVIEW OF LITERATURE

This chapter includes information on the research design utilized in this study, sources of data,
instrumentation and data collection, tools for data analysis, and ethical considerations.

Research design

Case study, was used as the research design for this research study. According to Gomm,
Hammersley, and Foster (2000), case study refers to research that investigates a few cases in
considerable depth. Most scholars agree that a case study is not a particular method but a strategy
(Stoecker, 1991, Yin, 1994). It approach that is used to generate an in-depth, multi-faceted
understanding of a complex issue in its real-life context. It is an established research design that is
 used extensively in a wide variety of disciplines, particularly in the social sciences. Case studies are
widely used in psychology to provide insight into unusual conditions.

Sources of Data

Locale and Population of the Study

The researchers chose the participants from Claret School of Zamboanga City, which
