Abstract

The study is entitled ‘An Impact Study on the Influence of Vulgar Words towards the Social Readiness of Grade 7 Students’. The researchers aimed to understand the influence of the vulgar words inflicted by parents among grade 7 children. Furthermore, towards the output of the study, by determining the effect of vulgar words among Grade 7 students of San Felipe Neri Parochial School, the researcher may associate such effect to the formation of social readiness among grade 7 students. In one of the related literatures, it was found out that the abused adolescent is very vulnerable to emotional and mental health issues that can leave negative effect on the child. A hundred and thirty three grade 7 students age range 11 –14 years, (47% boys and 53% girls) participated in the study. The research revealed varying effects as to academics, social and emotional as perceived by the students. Using correlational test, the researchers found out that the frequency of experience, among Grade 7 students, has a direct influence to social readiness and academic perception of the students. The results of the study led to the creation of lifeline as part of the guidance program of the school, and are suggested to be part of classroom homeroom discussion and PTA meetings.
