Abstract

This study examined the relationship between personal hygiene practices and parental motivation and self-confidence among senior high school students. Specifically, it aimed to determine the levels of personal hygiene practices, parental motivation, and students’ self-confidence. A quantitative correlational research design was employed, involving 142 senior high school students of Lorenzo S. Sarmiento Sr. National High School. Data were gathered using a structured questionnaire and analyzed using the weighted average and Pearson’s r. The findings revealed that both personal hygiene practices and parental motivation are significantly related to students’ self-confidence. Moreover, the combined influence of personal hygiene practices and parental motivation was found to be statistically significant, leading to rejection of the null hypothesis.
