Respondents
The respondents of this research study were all students
from the third year level of the Academy of Saint John for the
school year 2012-2013. III- St. Lorenzo served as the controlled
group; III- St. Bernard as experimental group.
- 14 -
Procedure
The questionnaire used for this study was submitted to the
subject instructor first for content validation before its
administration to the experimental and controlled group of third
year students. After the checking and validity confirmation and
so with the corrections, the questionnaires were reproduced
according to the sample size.
The researchers were the ones who distributed the
questionnaires during the Math period of the respondents. The
respondents submitted the questionnaire after their Mathematics
class or dismissal. It was for giving them enough time in
answering the questionnaire after conducting the experimentation
which is the chocolate intake during class hours. The researchers
gathered the questionnaires for the analysis, tabulation and
interpretation.
The result of these processes was published in the following
chapters.

A. ANOVA
a. a statistical method for making simultaneous
comparisons between two or more means; a statistical
method that yields values that can be tested to
determine whether a significant relation exists
between variables
B. Mean Deviation
a. The mean deviation is the measure of dispersion
equal to the mean of the absolute deviation from the
arithmetic mean.
C. Sample Variance
a. The sample variance is the difference between two
