Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2025, Vol 35, Issue 8

Abstract

This mixed-method study focused on involvement opportunities for Indigenous Peoples (IP) student leaders and employed sixty-six Supreme Elementary Learner Government (SELG) officers as respondents and participants from six schools in Alabel 1 District. For the quantitative phase, levels of involvement opportunities for six indicators were determined, wherein decision-making, engagement opportunities, and representation in student body organization, revealed a high extent result. In contrast, monitoring and evaluation, expression of dissatisfaction and concerns, and influence in feedback giving revealed a moderately high extent result. For the qualitative phase, IP student leaders’ viewpoints on involvement opportunities and benefits of their engagement in school organizations were identified to support the six major themes which are decision-making, engagement opportunities, representation in student body organization, monitoring and evaluation, expression of dissatisfaction and concerns, and influence in feedback giving. Results from quantitative and qualitative data analysis showed that IP student leaders desired to be highly involved in all the activities offered in school. It is recommended that SELG advisers be capacitated to make interventions and initiatives that would help increase the involvement of IP student leaders.
