| Summary: | The COVID-19 Pandemic has prompted the suspension of masses. Thus, this started online masses and has been used by schools to allow students to attend virtually the sacraments. The study investigates how motivated and participative students are in online masses. The researchers investigated the degree of motivation and level of participation of students, the differences when grouped according to the demographics, and if there exists a significant relationship between the two. A study from Dioso (2014) has specified four motivational factors for students to attend masses: requirement, meaningfulness, liturgical celebration, and parental influence, and served as the main theoretical framework for the study, along with other theories on the formation of habits. The measurement of the factors, along with the level of participation, was done by the use of survey questionnaires. There were 298 respondents in this study. The study found that there is a moderate degree of motivation and a high level of participation in attending online masses. Further, there were no significant differences in the degree of motivation and level of participation among the said variables, except in the variable of sex on the motivational factors of meaningfulness, liturgical celebration, and the level of participation. Finally, there was a significant relationship between the degree of motivation and the level of participation of students. Based on the result of the study, the researchers proposed that an Enhanced Christian Life Formation Program be implemented so that students may regain a high appreciation for the Holy Mass and the sacraments. |
