A Multivariate Analysis of the Effect of Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) on School Performance of Sampaguita High School in Caloocan City

Abstract

This research paper empirically validates the effect of Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program on the school performance indicators of Sampaguita High School in terms of enrolment, dropout rate and promotion rate from school year 2011-2012 to 2016-2017. Three (3) approaches were used to determine the effect of the number of 4Ps recipient on enrolment, dropout rate and promotion rate, namely: the computed statistics for Pooled Least Square estimation indicates that number of 4Ps recipient has no significant effect to the explained variables such as enrolment, dropout rate and promotion rate. Moreover, the Fixed Effect Model estimation indicates that number of 4Ps recipient has significant effects to the explained variables such as dropout rate and promotion rate. However, the number of 4Ps recipient has no significant effect on enrolment. Further, the Random Effect estimation explicitly presented that the member of 4Ps recipient has significant effect on dropout rate and promotion rate but has no significant effect on school enrolment. On the basis of Joined Test, Breusch-Pagan Test and Hausman Test, among the three models, the Random Effect Model is suitable to explain the effect of Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program.
