Abstract

This study used a descriptive, non-experimental, quantitative research design. The respondents included in the study have a total of 268 nursing students who qualified in the criteria set by the researchers. The researchers used a self- made questionnaire based on the theoretical framework and made use of a 5-point Likert scale to measure the level of agreement and disagreement on the 18 statements provided in the research instrument. The Likert scale contained the following options: (1) Strongly Disagree, (2) Disagree, (3) Neutral, (4) Agree, and (5) Strongly Agree. The 18 statements were divided into three categories: Biological, Psychological, and Social. These categories pertained on how the respondents perceive the effects of HBALMs on mental well-being. The data obtained from the research instrument were analyzed by the researchers using frequency, mean, standard deviation, t-Test, and ANOVA test. Based on the findings, the following were concluded: 1) Majority of the respondents are18 to 22 years old, female, 1st year students, staying at home with their relatives, and use Fibr to access the internet. 2) There are neither positive nor negative perceived effects of the Home- Based Alternative Learning Modalities in the mental well-being of the respondents. 3) There is no significant difference in the perceived effects of the HBALMs in the mental well-being of the respondents when they are grouped according to age, place of residence during the pandemic, and source of internet connection. However, a significant difference was noted when the respondents were grouped according to sex and year level.
