Abstract

The study's main problem was "What is the relationship between the level of caffeine consumption of Senior High School students of St. Mary's College Quezon City and their perceived academic productivity?" Studying this problem allowed the students to see the extent of the relationship between caffeine consumption and perceived academic productivity, the school clinic to monitor students whose illnesses are affected by drinking caffeinated beverages, and to determine the reason why students are consuming caffeinated beverages that are rooted in academics. The study used a descriptive correlational quantitative research design due to its concern with determining the relationship between the level of caffeine consumption of Senior High School Marians and their perceived academic productivity. The instrumentation used in the study was a survey questionnaire constructed by the researchers and used frequency, mean rating, Pearson r, and percentage to interpret and analyse the gathered data. The study found that there is a low positive correlation or relationship between the level of caffeine consumption of Senior High School Marians and their level of perceived academic productivity.
