Novel Corona Virus disease, known as COVID-19, was reported in Wuhan City in the Hubei province of China in the year 2019. It detailed that the Corona Virus disease have common symptoms of mild fever, dry cough, sore throat, and loss of taste or smell. The number of cases began increasing at an alarming phase and a Public Health Emergency of International Concern was declared on January 2020 to tackle this issue. It created a massive uproar while significantly affecting the health of people. A part from provoking massive health uproar, this Pandemic also seems to have created economic, mental, and social effects on the masses. Hence, the country and its people suffer severe damages. A reduction in the supply chain creates a scarcity of foods, resources, and personal protective equipment. It even leads to a financial strain on society and an imbalance of the economy. Moreover, social distancing measures, quarantine, shutting down of educational institutions, and self-isolation have a detrimental impact on people's psyche due to increased loneliness, distrust, and reduced social interaction. A weak immune system or a close relative or member of the family susceptible to the disease intensifies stress, anxiety, and frustration. In addition, information overload called "infodemic" via social media platforms creates uncertainty and uneasiness among the people; while, risking the spread of false information.

There are various struggles that every country encounters. One is on how they will cope to the new technology; second, how they will face and accept the new normal; finally, how COVID-19 will affect the mental health of the individuals, specifically the students who are experiencing stress, anxiety, and depressive tendencies. Although the students develop new skills in maintaining relationship, independence, and self-sufficiency, any hurdle in this process can cause denial, self-blaming, dissatisfaction, stress or anxiety. Hence, social media works as a coping mechanism with its ease of accessibility and trends. Due to the lock down period of COVID-19, factors related to changes in academic structures, examinations, and a battle with limited resources can be directly associated with anxiety, stress, frustration, and depressive disorders. Thus, it is vital to promote positive mechanisms or thinking against the negative impact of COVID -19 on the mental health of the people. 

This proposed study must be purely researched on and develop more information that will benefit all the future researchers and different administrations. The study is so timely to achieve its best research study and help other researchers and scientists in discovering new information that may pave way to another research.

Pandemic is a worldwide case disease that every nation faces today. Different health organizations are still discovering cures and continually studying all about the virus and how it become a very uncommon illness for every patients and suspected patients. Broader research review from studies done in various countries such as Turkey, China, Germany, and USA, have displayed the influence of COVID-19 on population with respect to policies, healthcare, economy, etc. A study from China conducted in January discussed long-term effects such as PTSD and the outcome of negative coping. A review of related work in India revealed that the primary focus has been on older adults, healthcare professionals, and at risk patients. This study focused on studying the effects of COVID-19 on the student population in India and gauge their response to knowledge, attitude, anxiety, experience, and mental health care. It is imperative to assess the student population's perspective, response, and progress during the Pandemic, especially in a country like India where the majority of the population comprises of youth. Philippines is one of the countries that have highly positive cases of COVID-19. The Department of Health are aware and give mandatories and protocols that will help and prevent people in having close contacts and face-to-face meetings. All localities in the country have their rules and regulations that will support the activities and mandatories of a high organization. To cite an example is following the protocols like always wearing a face mask, a face shield, and maintaining a 1-meter distance in public to prevent the spread of the virus.

- this is when you look for theories to which you anchor your study. Remember, theories are still not considered law (irrevocable). Meaning you can somehow still challenge or support them. So is there's theory that can base your study either you will support it or not.

 

Conceptual Framework

- From the review of the related literature and studies, the researcher formulates 

a conceptual scheme for his research problem, which is a tentative theoretical 

explanation of the phenomenon/ problem he is going to investigate. 

- The conceptual framework should be reduced into a paradigm/ schematic 

diagram showing the variables of the framework and their interrelationships. 

The theoretical scheme is the basis for formulating the research hypothesis/es.

 

Null Hypothesis (es) 

- The hypothesis (es) should be: (1) rational, involving at least two variables; (2) 

precise and clear; (3) non-judgment, i.e. moral/value free; (4) not answerable by 

yes or no; and (5) measurable.

- The research hypotheses are stated in the alternative form however, these are
