Abstract

The main concern of this study was to determine the factors affecting administrators’ performance in the practice of innovation, the level of performance of public elementary school administrators research competencies and the reasons for research engagement and non-engagement. Most importantly, this study tried to find out the extent of contribution of each factor to the administrators’ performance in the practice of innovation. The respondents of the study were the public elementary school administrators in Don Carlos II, Don Carlos III, Kadingilan I, and Kadingilan II districts SY 2022-2023. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics such as frequency counts, percentage, average weighted mean, and standard deviations. Deeper analysis of data was done using Pearson r correlation technique and the multiple regressions. Based on the findings, public elementary school administrators in Don Carlos II, Don Carlos III, Kadingilan I, and Kadingilan II districts were competent in conducting action research as regards to technical aspect, major parts and other parts of action research. The administrators in Don Carlos II, Don Carlos III, Kadingilan I, and Kadingilan II engage in action research to solve problems in school and for professional development. For their non-engagement, it is due to insufficient time and not having access to the books and journals.
