• Resumen

  • The study utilized a descriptive research method using Donald Super’s Work Values Questionnaire in tracing the work values of 317 Grade 11 and 12 Senior High School Students of San Mariano National High School, San Mariano, Isabela. Mean, standard deviation, and analysis of variance with the Tukey test as post hoc was used in the interpretation of the data gathered. The significant differences in the work values of the students and the impact of the courses taken from the respondents on their work values in the workplace, working environment, interactions with co-workers, and work activities, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) was conducted, and Tukey HSD as post hoc test also conducted to the significant indicator. Generally, there was a significant relationship among the assessments of the senior high school students. The result confirms that the perceptions of the respondents on work values are almost the same. The work values of the senior high school students in the different strands are generally high and were considered important. While the work values in the workplace and the work values in activities significantly predict the work values of the senior high school except for work values with a co-worker. This connotes that there was no significant relationship in the assessment of the senior high school students to these variables. Educational authorities will cater to the need to strengthen the determined weaknesses in the work values in their workplace, working environment, interaction with co-workers, and work values activities; design intervention programs and activities to enhance specific dimensions of each work value subscale on values training and a case study to determine the effectiveness of the interventions initiated is suggested.
