Abstract: This research study employed a linear regression analysis to examine the influence of social media usage and the level of motivation on students’ academic performance. The research questions explored the levels of social media usage in terms of academic, socialization, entertainment, informativeness, and constraint; level of motivation in terms of intrinsic motivation, grade motivation, career motivation, and self-determination; and academic performance in quarters 1 to 3 among Junior High School and Senior High School students. In the sampling procedures the researchers utilized Slovin’s formula. Based on Slovin’s formula, a sample size of approximately 320.69 or 321 is required to achieve a margin of error of 5% for a total population size of 1614. The researchers utilized the Stratified Random Sampling which defines as a probability technique that involves segmenting the population into distinct subpopulations and then selecting samples from each subpopulation.
