Abstract
Adolescents are a significant extent of Internet clients, and countless of them are
practically dependent on the messages and actions on the Internet (Tsai and Lin,
2003). According to a study, nearly all young adolescents (95%) had Internet access,
67% owned a mobile phone, and 68% had a social media account.
Due to the trend of online shopping. Many Filipinos spend their time online
shopping to buy their needs amidst the pandemic. Young adolescents contribute to this
part, based on the statistics of 80 percent of teenagers aged 12-17 or between 12 to 15
million teen shoppers visit online shopping sites. They are far more skillful at Internet
use than adult users, according to popular conception. With this phenomenon, the
objectives of this study are to investigate the behavior of young adolescents and its
connection to online shopping satisfaction.
The research study aims to identify the behavior of the adolescents and factors
that might affect their behavior towards Online Shopping and so the Researchers used
Quantitative Descriptive study for this research and gathered 295 respondents for this
research study.
Findings and Conclusion for the said topic will be discussed in this paper and
some recommendations for the future researchers for the betterment of this study.

Chapter 1
This chapter includes the rationale behind this study along with a discussion of
the introduction, specific questions, the significance of the study, and scope and
delimitations.
Introduction
Online shopping has become a trend in view of the fact that of social media and
is quickly becoming part of our habits, another factor why it became a trend is that the
world is in a health crisis due to COVID-19. Online shopping is a tool to make it easier
for every person to buy their needs, it is also a way to reduce stress since it gives
satisfaction to people who buy online. On the other hand, shopping online is a time
saver and surprisingly a variety of offers and discounts too. Users would be surprised by
the price that they could get compared to the prices in the mall. It also offers unique
products which can help the lives of people.
Looking to the other side, adolescents are a significant extent of Internet clients,
and countless of them are practically dependent on the messages and actions on the
Internet (Tsai and Lin, 2003). According to a study, Nearly all young adolescents (95%)
had Internet access, 67% owned a mobile phone, and 68% had a social media account.
Mobile phone ownership was not associated with any indicators of well-being (George,
M. J., et al. 2018) Since adolescents have the most contribution to the number of users
in social media, the researchers were going to study their behaviors when online
shopping. Based on a research study, young consumers were more likely to choose to
3
shop through the Internet, using the selection of appropriate offer price comparison
engines.
Online shopping has its good sides but people often look to its positive effect, but
the said subject can be caused by the bad effect, the research will study what type of
behaviors are the young adolescents. To determine if there’s a relationship between
their behavior. There are 4 types of buying behavior of consumers: (1) Complex Buying
Behavior, (2) Dissonance- reducing behavior, (3) Habitual buying behavior (4) Variety-
seeking behavior.
The process of making a decision is very similar whether the consumer is offline
or online. But online purchasing has a major difference compared to the other one.
According to the traditional consumer decision model, Consumer purchase decisions
typically start with need awareness, then information search, alternative evaluations,
deciding to purchase, and finally, post-purchasing behavior. In terms of online
promotion, when customers see ads on the internet, these factors may attract buyers’
attention and stimulate their interesting particular products. Before they plan to
purchase, they're going to need additional information to assist them out. If they do not
have enough information, they're going to search through online channels, e.g., online
catalogs, websites, or search engines (Laudon and Traver, 2009). When customers
have enough information, they're going to compare those choices of products or
services. In the search stage, they might look for product reviews or customer
comments. They will determine which brand or company offers them the simplest fit
their expectation.
During this stage, an efficient site structure and an alluring plan are significant
things to convince purchasers to be keen on purchasing items and services. (Koo et al.,
2008). Moreover, the knowledge sources client nature may influence buyer behavior
(Bigné-Alcañiz et al., 2008). The most useful characteristic of the internet is that it
supports the pre-purchase stage (Maignan and Lukas, 1997) as it helps customers
compare different options (Dickson, 2000). During the process, product assortment,
sale services, and knowledge quality seem to be the foremost important points to assist
4
consumers to decide what product they ought to select, or what seller they ought to buy
from (Koo et al., 2008). Post-buy behavior will be more significant after their purchase
has a drag or concern about the product, or they could need to differ or return the
product that they should have purchased. Hence, return and trade services become
more important at this stage. (Liang and Lai, 2002).
Security issue doesn't stop at the acquisition stage yet proceeds to the post-
purchase stage in light of the fact that their data could be abused.
This research aims to investigate the behavior of young adolescents and identify
how it can affect consumers’ online shopping satisfaction. The phenomenon was not yet
been studied deeply by other researchers and so the objective of this study is to
determine The Behavior of Young Adolescents towards Online Shopping to Online
Shopping Satisfaction . The researchers chose the following topic for the reason that
this will help adolescents to identify their behaviors, to know how frequently they shop
online,after-sales, and to know what factors affect their behavior when shopping online.

Statement of the problem
Due to the trend of online shopping. Many Filipinos spend their time online
shopping to buy their needs amidst the pandemic. Young adolescents contribute to this
part, based on the statistics of 80 percent of teenagers aged 12-17 or between 12 to 15
million teen shoppers visit online shopping sites. They are far more skillful at Internet
use than adult users, according to popular conception. With this phenomenon, the
objectives of this study are to investigate the behavior of young adolescents and its
connection to online shopping satisfaction. Consumers have different behaviors when
buying online. The researchers aim to identify what type of behavior they have when
spending their time on online shopping sites. The research topic was also aimed to
identify the behavior of young adolescents and online shopping satisfaction.
Specifically, the research topic was aimed to answer the following questions:
6
Scope and Delimitation
This way, the study will focus solely on customer satisfaction when products and
services meet consumers’ expectations. Consumers must be content with the product
and services provided by the particular website as satisfied customers are likely to be
loyal and make repetitive purchases, increasing the profitability of that particular
company. In this research, satisfaction for adolescents was used before to be able to
refer to the term of the outcome by comparing the prior expectation and perceived
performance for each antecedent factor in order to measure the attitude satisfaction of
the respondents for each of those factors.

Significance of the Study
The online business owners will be the first to profit from this because they will
gain insight into the habits of young people who spend time online shopping as a result
of this study. Adolescents typically form conclusions and make decisions based on their
assessment and that of others, so their presence and subjective standard are viewed as
moderating factors. The results show that role enactment, sensory enhancement, and
option optimization are all correlated with utilitarian shopping perceptions substantially
and positively. This study entitled The Behavior of Young Adolescents to Online
Shopping Satisfaction is being constructed for the sake of the following:
YOUNG ADOLESCENTS: The study will benefit young adolescents for the reason that
they will be benefited from this. They will know what factors and their behaviors affect
their decision especially in spending too much time online shopping. They will know
what to consider first for example money, and their decision-making, to develop their
interests when it comes to buying. In addition, they will realize what are some factors
that can harm their behavior when they are not in control of shopping online.
ONLINE SELLERS: Online sellers will benefit from this research for the reason that the
researcher aims for the wants of teenagers, they will know what young adolescents
want when it comes to shopping online. Nowadays young adolescents are addicted to
online shopping so the business of online sellers can be positively affected, for the most
part, when they are selling beauty products, popular dresses, etc. They will benefit from
this research by knowing the adolescents’ buying behavior. The online sellers will gain
business strategies when the research is conducted.
8
PARENTS: This research will benefit the parents for them to know if they have to
control the behavior of their young adolescents when it comes to online shopping.
STUDENTS: To the students who want to study the behavior of teenagers in online
shopping, they can gain information or perspective from this study if they want to learn
more about the actions of teenagers while shopping online
These are the beneficiaries of the research study. The research paper gives
some insight into what factors affect their behaviors when it comes to online shopping.

Chapter 2
This chapter provides the related literature and a general overview of previous
research. It introduces the conceptual framework and definition terms that comprise the
main focus of the research described in this study.
Online Shopping
Life in today's age. In the previous decade, there had been a massive change in
the method of client shopping. Despite purchasers' continuation to purchase from an
actual store, the clients or purchasers feel helpful to online shopping. Online shopping
10
saves crucial time for modern people since they get so busy that they cannot or are
reluctant to invest a lot of energy in shopping. (Mohammad, N.R. et al. 2018).
In the twenty-first century, trade and business have been enhanced to the point
that multichannel has occurred and online shopping has expanded altogether
throughout the world (Johnson, Gustafsson, Andreassen, Lervik, and Cha, 2001). The
Asia Pacific area is driving the development of internet shopping when contrasted with
the developed market like the US, UK, Japan, and European Countries. The Asia
Pacific recorded massive development.
The Asia Pacific region made about $1 trillion in online sales and the dominant
part came from China establishing about $899 billion (eMarketer, 2016). With an ever-
increasing number of purchasers becoming progressively acquainted with the Internet
and its advantages, online shopping is getting famous and getting preference among a
group of customers looking for better incentive in regards to data, comfort, cost, and
decision.
Today online consumers have more control and bargaining power than
consumers of physical stores because the web offers more interactivities between
consumers and product/service providers as well as greater availability of information
about products and services. Geissler and Zinkhan (1998) claimed that the Internet
shifted the balance of power in favor of consumers as it became very easy for them to
make shopping comparisons and evaluate alternatives without being pressured by
salespeople. Online shops reduce transaction costs and have the advantage for both
11
consumers and vendors. However, online shops also have disadvantages compared to
traditional stores. In online stores, customers can’t have any sense of the merchandise
they see on the internet (seeing, touching, tasting, smelling, and hearing) as they look
for and buy products.
In online stores, consumers may develop low trust and perceive elevated risk
highly due to the shortage of face-to-face communication. Although this difficulty is often
reduced by using certain software tools like the web recommendation agent (Häubl and
Murray, 2003; Xiao and Benbasat, 2007) and therefore the online negotiation agent
according to (Huang and Sycara, 2002; Huang and Lin, 2007). Along with that
perceived chance refers to the nature and amount of risk perceived by a consumer in
contemplating a particular buy choice (Cox and Rich, 1964). Before purchasing a
product, a consumer considers the varied risks related to the acquisition. The different
sorts of risks are mentioned as perceived or anticipated risks.
Research suggests that buyers generally like better to use electronic commerce
for purchasing products that don't require physical inspection (Peterson et al., 1997).
The higher the perceived experience risk, the buyer may shift to brick-and-mortar
retailers for the acquisition of the merchandise. Whereas, the lower the perceived risk,
the lower the propensity for online shopping (Tan, 1999). Risks perceived or real, exist
due to innovation failure or human error (e.g., data entry mistakes). The most frequently
cited risks related to online shopping include financial risk (e.g., is my MasterCard
information safe?), product risk (e.g., is that the product an equivalent quality as viewed
on the screen?), convenience (e.g., Will I comprehend how to order and return the
merchandise?), and non-delivery risk (e.g., What if the product is not delivered?) The
level of uncertainty surrounding the online purchasing process influences consumers’
perceptions regarding the perceived risks (Bhatnagar et al., 2000).
In addition since the mid-1970s, the study of consumer attitudes has been
associated with consumer purchasing behavior research. According to the model of
attitude change and behavior (e.g., Fishbein and Ajzen, 1975), consumer attitudes are
suffering from intention. When this intention is applied to online shopping behavior, the
12
research can examine the result of the acquisition transaction. Attitude is a
multidimensional construct. One such dimension is the acceptance of the web as a
shopping channel (Jahng, Jain, and Ramamurthy, 2001).
Online shoppers need to learn new technology skills to search, evaluate and
acquire products. Consumers who prefer traditional shopping over other retail channels
do not perceive online shopping as convenient according to (Kaufman-Scarborough and
Lindquist, 2002). Past Researches have revealed that online shopping technology is a
function of attitude towards the online environment and individual personal
characteristics according to (Midgley and Dowling, 1978; Eastlick, 1993; Sylke,
Belanger, and Comunale, 2004; Lassar et al., 2005). Innovative consumers are more
inclined to undertake new activities (Robinson, et al. 2004; Rogers, 1995).
13
The adoption of online shopping is a depiction of individual innovative
characteristics (Eastlick, 1993). Adopting new technology is a function of one‘s attitude
towards it (Moore and Benbasat, 1991). It is expected that a person with domain-
specific innovativeness has a propensity to shop online. To achieve success retailers
must understand consumers’ purchasing behaviors. This is particularly true for online
retailers. A comprehensive understanding must be made of the website’s design and
support to match its consumers’ information gathering and purchasing behaviors. The
visual stimuli and transmission through text and sound can positively or negatively affect
consumers’ online aspirations and actions according to (Vijayasarathy and Jones,
2000).
The Theory of Reasoned Action (TRA) by (Azjen and Fishbein, 1980) has
successfully been used to demonstrate human behavior. The theory proposes that
human behavior is preceded by intentions, which are formed based on consumers’
attitudes toward the behavior and perceived subjective norms. Behavior reflects the
individual's favorable or unfavorable emotion towards performing a behavior. Subjective
norms capture the consumers’ perceptions of the influence of serious others (e.g.,
family, peers, authority figures, and media). It is associated with intention because
people often act to support their perception of what others think they ought to be doing.
Subjective norms tend to be more influential during the early stages of innovation
implementation when users have limited direct experience from which to develop
attitudes (Taylor and Todd, 1995). During this stage of attitudinal development, online
retailers can influence shoppers' propensity for purchasing behaviors (Yu and Wu,
2007).
Consumer’s behavior
There are numerous reasons why individuals shop online. An example of this is
consumers can purchase anything at any time without going to the store; they can find a
similar item at a lower cost by comparing different websites at the same time; they
sometimes want to avoid pressure while having up-close and personal cooperation with
salespeople; they can avoid in-store traffic jam, and so forth These components can be
14
summed up into four categories-convenience, data, accessible items and services, and
cost and time efficiency.
Research shows that 58% decided to shop online in light of the fact that they
could shop twilight when the traditional stores are shut and 61 percent of the
respondents chose to shop online on the grounds that they need to stay away from
groups and howling lines, particularly in holiday shopping (The Tech Faq, 2008).
Customers search for items as well as online services. A few organizations have online
customer services accessible 24 hours.
Therefore, even after business hours, clients can ask questions, get vital help or
assistance, which has provided convenience to consumers (Hermes, 2000).
15
Security: Since the installment modes in online shopping are probably made with
credit cards, clients in some cases focus on dealer's information to ensure themselves
(Lim and Dubinsky, 2004). Customers tend to buy products and services from the
vendor who they trust, or the brand that they know about (Chen and He, 2003). Online
trust is one of the most critical issues that influence the achievement or disappointment
of online retailers (Prasad and Aryasri, 2009). Security is by all accounts a major worry
that keeps clients from shopping online(Laudon and Traver, 2009). since they stressed
that the online store will swindle them or abuse their own data, particularly their credit
card (Comegys et al., 2009). For example, reports demonstrated that 70% of US web
clients are truly stressed over their data, exchange security, and abuse of private buyer
information (Federal Trade Commission, 2001and Guo, 2008).
Social contact: While a few clients are liable to be free from salesperson
pressure, numerous online shoppers would feel hard to settle on a decision and along
these lines get disappointed if there is no experienced salesperson’s professional
assistance (Prasad and Aryasri, 2009). Also, a few clients are profoundly socially
associated and depend on other people groups' opinions when settling on the purchase
decisions. There are likewise purchasers who in some cases shop at the traditional
stores since they need to satisfy their diversion and social requirements which are
restricted by online stores (Prasad and Aryasri, 2009).
16
There are types of buyers according to one theory. One of these is Perfectionist,
the type of buyer who looks for the best quality of a product. Next is the buyer who has
possessed brand awareness, they are the ones who preferred brands and designer
labels. Another is the Hedonist, the one who treats shopping as an enjoyment. The
buyer who has price awareness, the one who seeks low prices, sales, or discounts. The
fashion-aware buyer, the customer who likes to be up-to-date and seeks a variety. The
Impulsive buyer, the one who is prone to spontaneous purchases. The confused one,
the customer who experiences too much information or choices. And last is Habitual,
the customer is loyal to brands and follows a routine.
According to (Gray, Ryan. 2019) there are several types of consumer behavior.
The 1st type of consumer behavior is complex buying behavior. This kind of behavior is
experienced when purchasers are purchasing an expensive, rarely purchased item.
They are exceptionally associated with the purchase process and consumers’ research
before committing to a high-value investment. Imagine purchasing a house or a vehicle;
these are an illustration of a complex buying behavior. The next one is Dissonance-
reducing buying behavior. The shopper is exceptionally associated with the purchase
process however experiences issues deciding the contrasts between brands.
'Dissonance can happen when the purchaser stresses that they will regret their choice.
Imagine you are purchasing a lawnmower. You will pick one dependent on cost and
comfort, however, after the buy, you will look for affirmation that you've settled on the
correct decision. Another consumer’s behavior is Habitual buying behavior. Habitual
purchases are portrayed by the way that the purchaser has almost no inclusion in the
item or brand class. Imagine shopping for food: you go to the store and purchase your
favored sort of bread. You are showing a routine example, not strong brand loyalty.
Last, is Variety seeking behavior. In the present circumstance, a shopper buys an
alternate item, not on the grounds that they weren't happy with the past one, but since
they look for variety. Like when you are trying new shower gel fragrances.
Understanding what kinds of clients your e-store pulls in will give you better thought
regarding how to segment customer types. These are the types of consumer behavior
that the clients possess when they are buying online.
17
According to (Radu, Valentin. 2019) there are many things that can affect
consumer behavior, but the most frequent factors influencing consumer behavior are
Marketing campaigns. Marketing campaigns impact purchasing decisions mostly.
Whenever done right and consistently, with the correct showcasing message, they can
even convince purchasers to change marks or decide on more costly alternatives.
Another factor that affects consumer decisions is Economic conditions. For costly items
particularly (like houses or vehicles), economic conditions have a major influence. A
positive economic environment is known to make buyers more sure and willing to enjoy
buys regardless of their monetary liabilities. The customer's decision-making process is
longer for costly buys and it tends to be affected by more close-to-home factors
simultaneously. Another factor that affects the consumer’s decision is Personal
preferences. Consumer behavior can likewise be impacted by personal factors: likes,
dislikes, needs, morals, and values. In industries like fashion or food, personal opinions
are particularly incredible. Ads can impact behavior at the same time, by the day's end,
customers' decisions are significantly affected by their preferences. In case you're
vegetarian, it doesn't make any difference the number of burger joint ads you see,
you're not going to begin eating meat thus.
18
Product preferences, customer issues, a larger number of discounted items, risk
perception, and after-sales services are all elements that influence consumer
satisfaction with online shopping, according to Lakshmanan (2016).
According to Evanschitzky, Iyer, Hesse, and Ahlert (2004), the most significant
elements that impact financial security of transactions are convenience and site design.
According to Sang Yong Kim and Young Jun Lim (2001), consumer happiness is
influenced by variables such as enjoyment, convenience, reliability, and information
quality and speed while shopping online
19
Siekpe (2008) The purpose of a good website is crucial, since it influences consumers'
online shopping purchasing decisions.
According to Hasanov Jasur and Khalid Haliyana (2015), the quality of a website
is not the only element that influences consumer purchase intent. Other aspects of safe
websites, such as strong customer service, effective product delivery and logistics, and
achieving favorable client evaluations, also play an essential part.
Nitish Singh claims that Georg Fassott, Mike C.H. Chao, and Jonas A. Hoffmann
(2006) found that their attitude regarding utilizing the website had a significant influence
on their intent to buy from these foreign websites.
20
Self-efficacy and usefulness are key beliefs in understanding the behavior of
experienced customers, according to Hernandez Blanca, Jimenez Julio, and Martin M.
Jose (2008), but ease of use has no significant impact.
Perceived behavioral control, attitude, and perceived usefulness are all important
antecedents in influencing online consumer behavior, according to Azzam Al, Mahmoud
Abdel Fattah (2014), and there are strong connections between trust and online
purchase behavior.
Consumer’s satisfaction
Customer satisfaction has been one of the top tools for a successful business.
Customer satisfaction is known as an overall evaluation that supports the entire
purchase and consumption experience with service over time (Fornell, Johnson,
Anderson, Cha & Bryant 1996). With marketing, customer satisfaction also comes along
with it, which means it ascertains the expectation of the customer on how the products
and services are being accommodated by the companies. Actionable information on
how to make customers further satisfied is, therefore, a crucial outcome (Oliver 1999.)
21
Initially, consumer loyalty is a critical segment of a business technique just as
customer retention and item repurchase. To expand customer satisfaction companies
should sell plans and methods after the completion of all the necessary documents. For
instance, clients will purchase a vehicle subsequent to investigating it, for example, how
is the motor, what is its model, the number of kilometers it has been voyaging, and if
there any breaks or not. Therefore, they do not feel disappointed after purchasing it.
Otherwise, if The company uses only their sell and build method customers might
expect that the car is strictly equivalent to what they see within the pictures or during the
exhibition, and afterward the corporate might receive complaints if anything is wrong.
Customer satisfaction is a barometer that predicts future customer behavior (Hill, Roche
& Allen 2007.)
However, the merchandise and its features, functions, reliability, sales activity,
and customer support are the foremost important topics required to meet or exceed the
satisfaction of the customers. Satisfied customers usually rebound and buy more. Other
than purchasing more they likewise function as an organization to prevail in other
possible clients by sharing experiences. (Hague & Hague 2016.) The value of keeping a
customer is only one-tenth of winning a new one. Consequently, when the association
wins a client it should keep on developing a decent 6 relationship with the customer.
Giving the nature of labor and products in the twentieth century isn't just to fulfill the
buyers yet additionally to have a protected position. Indeed, this has benefited the
customers significantly on consuming qualitative products (Rebekah & Sharyn 2004.)
Customers often search for a worth within the total service which needs internal
collaboration among the department that's liable for different elements of the offering,
like the core product (goods or services) delivering the product, product documentation,
etc. Moreover, from profitability and productivity perspectives only activities that produce
value for patrons should be administered. Hence, firms have to get to know their
customers far better than have normally been. However, the company should be able to
build trust with the customer so it's easy to urge feedback from the customer. This is the
manner by which client-arranged items or administrations could be created (Hill, Brierley
& MacDougall 2003.) Customer satisfaction is dynamic and relative. Just the possibility
22
of "client-driven" can assist organizations with improving fulfillment and keep clients
genuinely, on the other hand, assuming contenders improve consumer loyalty, it might
lose corporate clients. While improving customer satisfaction, customer expectations
should be noticed. Service quality, product quality, and value for money have a direct
positive impact on customer satisfaction. Employee fulfillment is similarly significant
prior to accomplish consumer loyalty. Assuming representatives have a positive impact,
they can assume a major part to expand consumer loyalty levels.

Hypothesis
Ha: There are different types of consumers’ behavior when buying online.
: There are different factors that affect consumer’s behavior when buying online.
: They are satisfied with what they buy in online shopping.

Conceptual Framework
25
The conceptual framework is an input-process-output model of The behavior of
Young Adolescents to Online Shopping Satisfaction. The researcher will analyze the
data through this conceptual model which is the behavior of young adolescents to online
shopping satisfaction. The IPO model addresses the synopsis of different related
articles that clarifies the cycles in question. This directs the researcher in coming up
with a progression of activity needed in the whole length of the given educational
research. It considers the insights of the other researchers, their perceptions, and their
findings regarding the subject of their instructive research. (Canonizado, I. 2020).
26
The research aims to determine the behavior of adolescents and factors that
affect their behavior. This research study also wants to determine the online shopping
satisfaction of consumers when shopping online. WIth these variables the dependent
variables will be determined which is the behavior of young adolescents to online
shopping satisfaction.
The figure interprets the process of this research. The objective of this research
is to determine the respondents’ profile which is the age and gender. The next step is to
determine the consumer’s behavior. In order to identify the consumer's behavior,
reading literature is one of the processes for the researchers to get insights regarding
the research topic. The researcher will modify their questionnaire from previous
research for validity and reliability. Distribution of the questionnaire is one of the
processes to answer the statement of the problem. After this process. The behavior of
young adolescents towards online shopping to online shopping satisfaction is
determined.
1.To know the information of the respondents such as the sex, age.
4.To know what the factors affecting their behavior towards online shopping are.
5.To know how does the behavior of young adolescents affect online shopping
satisfaction
6.To determine the behavior of the respondents when they are satisfied and not
satisfied with online shopping.

Chapter 3
This chapter presents the research design, the sample, an individual’s responses
description and the sampling technique used, the research instrument, the assurance
and validation of the research instrument used, the individual’s response collection and
analysis procedure, and the statistical method used.
Research Design
To provide validity, the nature of this study was quantitative data. Quantitative
research methods accentuate objective measurements and the statistical, numerical, or
mathematical analysis of data gathered through surveys, questionnaires, or by
controlling pre-existing statistical data utilizing computational methods. Quantitative
research centers on gathering numerical data and generalizing it up across individuals
or clarifying a specific phenomenon. (babbie, e. 2010). Quantitative was applicable for
this researched topic since it requires numerical data and for it to answer specific
questions. The quantitative approach was particularly valuable for resolving specific
questions concerning moderately distinct phenomena. Quantitative research requires
high-quality data in which factors were estimated well. This could be challenging when
conducting on complicated or understudied areas that did not lend themselves well to
being measured with explicit variables.
The study would use a descriptive design. Descriptive research was restricted to
factual registration and that there was no quest for an explanation why reality was
showing itself this way. In principle, descriptive research was not aiming at forming
hypotheses or developing theories. Saw e. g. Wassenberg, f. A. G. , h. M. Kruythoff et
al. (1994) in order to describe the behavior of young adolescents to online shopping
satisfaction. Descriptive research applies to this topic. The researched had been
analyzed in quantitative because quantitative researched was more objective in
comprehensively measured data applied in the forms of graphical methods.
29
Respondents of the study
The chosen participant respondents of this study were the people who wanted to
determine the behavior of young adolescents to online satisfaction and shall be 14-17
years old along with the consist of grade 8,9,10 students that enrolled on academic s.y
2020-2021 in culiat high school at brgy. Culiat. The research study should have
collected up to two hundred ninety-five (295) responses from the respondents based on
slovin’s formula.
The researchers added the estimated total number of students per room from
8th grade to 10th grade which was one thousand two-hundred sixty (1,260) there was a
5% percent margin of error first, the researcher would made sure that all willing to
cooperate with participants and they solely promised their response had been based on
the truth that they had an experience when it came to online shopping. Second, all
respondents must be students in culiat high school to the exact age of 15-17 years old.
Lastly, the researcher would made sure that all gathered data from respondents were
pure truth
SAMPLING TECHNIQUE
Therefore, the sampling technique that researchers decided to use in this study
was simple random sampling. The researcher would send their questionnaire through
their section’s adviser or president and request them to forward it to their section group
chats. Those who were willing to answer the questionnaire were free to fill up the forms.
There should be at least eight (8) participants in each section. If the expected number
of participants did not reach the quota. The researcher could got the data from the
other section that exceeds the required participants. That's why simple random
sampling was used in this research.
Simple random sampling was as simple as its name indicates, and it was
accurate. Ease of use and accuracy of representation. No easier method exists to
extract a researched sample from a larger population than simple random sampling.
There was no need to divide the population into subpopulations or take any steps
further than plucking the number of researched subjects needed at random from the
larger group. Again, the only requirements were that randomness governs the selection
process and that each member of the larger population had an equal probability of
selection (greg depersio 2016). This was a sampling technique that qualitative
researchers used to recruit participants who were easily accessible and convenient to
conduct the study. The researchers chose their respondents based on the criteria.
They was interviewed through google forms and asked some questions regarding their
experience and changes they've encountered in online shopping.
30
Instrument of the Study
Questionnaire
The research instrument was made by a researcher. The questionnaire could be
an effective method for estimating the behavior, perspectives, inclinations, opinions, and
goals of moderately huge quantities of subjects more economically and rapidly than
different techniques. (mcleod, s. 2018). The researched questionnaire was a likert
scale that measures the strength/intensity of an attitude was linear, i. e. on a continuum
from strongly agreed to strongly disagreed, and assumes that attitudes could be
measured.
The questions were divided into three subsets. The 1st set of questions was
expected to answer the 1st statement of the problem of this research which was the
behaviors of a young adolescent when online shopping. The 2nd set of questions
answers what factors affect the behavior of young adolescents towards online
shopping. The 3rd set of questions answers the last statement of the researched
problem, which identifies the consumer’s satisfaction when buying online. The
questions were formulated through sites, blogs, and other research for the
questionnaire has been made.
According to radu (2019), the consumers should consider psychological
factors: the response of an individual and an individual’s response to the consumer’s
perception and attitudes.
This instrument aims to determine their behaviors and identify what most likely
affects their decision. With the help of this article, the researchers coped with the idea
of this and used it as the instrument of this study. The instrument was modified from
different research which was from factors affecting consumer’s online shopping
behavior by (pandey, a. et. al. ) and consumer behavior researched: a synthesis of the
recent literature by (peighambari, k. et. al. 2016) the researched question of those
studied had already been validated by experts. The researchers modified it from
different research. The questionnaire was also validated by an abm teacher for its
validity and reliability.
the researched questions had 24 items in total, it had been collected through
google forms to prevent having physical contact and as for the safety of both
researchers and participants in this time of the pandemic. This would serve as the data
collection instrument in this studied. They were expected to finished those questions in
about 5-10 mins. The surveyed was aimed to determine answers to the statement of
the problem of this studied. The questions that was gone have been asked in this
studied was done through a deep studied that went from different researched and
blogs. These questions would expected to answered the behavior of young
adolescents and their satisfaction when buying online.
31
Data Gathering Procedure
The researchers started the survey in the second (2nd) week of June, the
questionnaire was modified from other researchers and had been validated by an abm
teacher. Researchers had allotted vigorous time and effort in developing the close-
ended questions. Before conducting the surveyed questionnaire the researcher asked
the participants if we could get an audience with them in their free time willingly. In the
first procedure, the researcher gave the letter to conduct the studied and informed
consent for conducting the research. The researcher sent the questionnaire to the
advisers of students and instructed them on how they would fill the questionnaire.
Second, the respondents would just answer the 24 questions in the survey by clicking
the choices that was provided by the researchers. They would have time to answer the
questions. After answering the questions they could submit them for it have be
collected.
At the end of the surveyed questionnaire, the researchers gave the utmost
gratitude to the participants who willingly participated. The researchers solely promised
to the participants that the information that they gave to us was confined confidentially
to respect their anonymity that we were truly grateful for. After the end of the survey,
researchers would gather data from willing participants of culiat high school. The
questionnaire in the survey would determine their perspective and experience on what
they encountered or what factors could affect their behavior when it came to online
shopping and how they would manage this kind of situation.
After the compilation of data gathered from the students of culiat high school, the
researchers would evaluate the data on their perspectives and experiences by getting
the main idea or points of the participants. The instrument that we used to conduct our
surveyed was used messenger, google forms, and google to created communication
friendly and easy to used to gathered information quickly and efficiently.
32
After gathering the data, the data would process.The researchers used a
surveyed questionnaire and random sampling method for the data to be gathered.The
researchers collected up to two hundred ninety-five (295) responses.
Participants answered the surveyed questionnaire through google forms that the
researchers prepared. The surveyed questions were divided into 3 subsets in a total of
24 questions.
The 1st set of questions was expected to answered the 1st statement of the
problem of this researched which was the behaviors of a young adolescent when online
shopping. The 2nd set of questions answers what factors affect the behavior of young
adolescents towards online shopping. The 3rd set of questions answers the last
statement of the researched problem, which identifies the consumer’s satisfaction when
buying online. The researchers used a surveyed questionnaire approved by the
researched adviser in gathering the data from the respondents. The copies of the
questionnaire were stated in english, which we used to observe all the participants. The
data gathered had been arranged used the likert scale and quantitative method.
After that, the data gathered had been properly tallied, tabulated, interpreted, and
analyzed by the google forms used the frequency and percentage distribution as well as
the computation of the weighted mean.
33
Specifically, the following formulas had been utilized:
Frequency and Percentage
Formula:
P = F/N x 100
Where:
P = percentage
F = Number of responses
N = Number of respondents
And Weighted Mean Where:
WM = Weighted Mean
W: weight
F: frequency
N: number of respondents

Recommendations
This research topic wants to aim at the behavior of young adolescents towards
online shopping to online shopping satisfaction. It wants to investigate the different
factors affecting consumers' attitudes towards the use of online shopping. Due to the
trend of online shopping and in this moment of pandemic many Filipinos spend their
time on online platforms. One of them is online shopping. This study illustrates the
example of recommendation for the sake of the following:
To the parents:
They are the ones who have the responsibility to teach or advise those good
behaviors to their young adolescents, such as; being responsible to use online
shopping, on how to budget or handle money not in luxury yet in important things also.
Parents should not let their children be addicted to online shopping as long as they are
the one who will also suffer from this kind of situation. Although they should not tolerate
the behavior that can lead to a negative habit.
They are more skillful at internet use than adult users, they are the ones who are
more influenced by online platforms, Therefore they need to know how to balance their
time on how they spend on online shopping and on their household chores. Making
decisions, since they are young they always choose the popular or the trends rather
than to be practical ones, while we are young we need to be wise especially in money
every time we spend it.
68
To online sellers:
To the online sellers they are the one who are more able to benefit from this
since they are the one who sell the product of the desire of the youth. Online sellers
should know the likes of young people, their product should be attractive and effective
to use. To the attitude they have to be more patient to entertain the customers. Lastly if
they want to be trusted by the customers their transaction must be legitimate and not a
scammer so it will increase the willingness of customers to shop or buy online.
