Abstract:

With the spread of COVID-19, learning methodology has advanced to the present level of technology, and online learning has increased worldwide. Thus, the Philippines' situation with this learning modality influences mental health disorders, notably self-esteem, which is associated with depression. Moreover, this study investigates the relationship between self-esteem and depression among senior high school students amidst the COVID-19 pandemic. The statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between self-esteem and depression (r=.014).
