INTRODUCTION
This study identifies a significant gap in understanding the impact of music on the emotional and
psychological well-being of Grade 11 students at STI College Caloocan. Despite recognizing
music’s role in alleviating stress and supporting mental health among teenagers, research specific
to this group within our school context is lacking. By addressing this gap, the study aims to provide
valuable insights into how music can promote mental well-being, enhance academic experiences,
and improve overall quality of life for these students. The findings could inform future programs
incorporating music as a therapeutic tool for mental health. Therefore, the purpose of this study is
to comprehensively investigate and assess the impact of music on the mood and mental health of
Grade 11 students at STI College Caloocan, exploring whether different music genres have varying
effects on their emotional state and mental well-being, ultimately supporting their mental health
needs during their studies.
To answer the above cited problem, we researchers will aim to answer these following questions:
1. How does listening to music affect the mood and mental health of grade 11 students in STI
College Caloocan?
2. What potential negative effects, if any, does listening to music have on the mental health of
Grade 11 students at STI College Caloocan?
3. Do different genres of music affect grade 11 students’ mood and mental health differently?

SCOPE AND DELIMITATION
The respondents of this study are Grade 11 students at STI College Caloocan during the 2023-
2024 academic year. The research focuses exclusively on this grade level to provide a detailed
understanding of how music influences their mood and mental health. The study investigates the
effects of different types of music on students’ emotions and mental well-being, conducted within
the confines of the STI College Caloocan campus. However, the scope is restricted to environments
where students commonly listen to music, such as classrooms, common areas, and designated
music spaces. Other factors influencing mood and mental health are not covered, as the primary
objective is to explore the specific impact of music on these aspects among Grade 11 students.
This study is significant as it seeks to provide valuable insights into the impact of music on the
mood and mental health of Grade 11 students at STI College Caloocan. By understanding how
different genres and types of music affect students’ emotional well-being, educators, parents,
mental health professionals, and future researchers can better support students in managing stress
and enhancing their overall mental health.
For Educators: The findings can help teachers and school administrators develop strategies to
incorporate music into the educational environment to foster a positive learning atmosphere and
improve student engagement and emotional well-being.
For Parents: Parents can gain a deeper understanding of how music influences their children’s
mental health and mood, enabling them to support their children’s emotional needs more
effectively at home.
For Mental Health Professionals: Counselors and psychologists can use the insights from this
study to integrate music therapy into their practices, offering tailored interventions that address the
specific emotional and mental health needs of high school students.
For Students: The study provides students with knowledge about how music affects their mental
health, empowering them to use music as a tool for self-regulation and emotional support.
For Future Researchers: This study lays the groundwork for further research on the topic by
providing initial qualitative insights into the relationship between music and adolescent mental
health. Future researchers can build upon these findings by exploring different age groups, diverse
educational settings, or by employing quantitative methods to generalize the results. Additionally,
they can investigate other variables such as the impact of music on academic performance or social
interactions among students.
