520 _aAbstract: This research was conducted based on the study of Spearman et al., where they explained that people who had a weak sense of self tend to be more malleable in terms of their self-image. It is observed in the multiple studies they conducted that high approval of Barnum statement was commonly seen in individuals who have a weak sense of self. As Barnum statements, or seemingly specific personality descriptions that are actually generic, are becoming prevalent in social media, the researchers aim to determine if the Barnum effects has an influence on the perception of the ideal self of senior high school students in FEU-NRMF. The inquiries that were covered by the study contribute to the wide array of notions regarding self-concepts, specifically in the ideal self, by giving a conclusion as to how the Barnum effects influences how senior high school student perceive their ideal self. The researchers utilized the mixed method to have a qualitative and quantitative aspects for the study. To be specific, triangulation research design was used for the purpose of using more than one theoretical scheme in the interpretation of a phenomenon. A phenomenological research design was used to interpret that data from the qualitative part, while the quantitative part made use of a correlational research design. The researchers used thematic coding for the qualitative part wherein the researches listed common themes that were based on the answers of the interviewees. Helping with the interpretation of the qualitative data and in answering the research question. The data was gathered from 82 students in the senior high school department of FEU-NRMF, which were separated into two (2) groups to answer questionnaires that had either a personality test or a horoscope test for the quantitative data; and eight (8) students were chosen to be interviewed for the qualitative aspect. The statistical treatment used was Spearman's rho, a non-parametric test to measure the correlation of monotononically related variables. The usage of Spearman's rho resulted into a value of -0.153, and this indicated that there was no correlation between the ideal gap and level of susceptibility to Barnum effect. The data gathered showed that the students have different factors that influence their ideal self, namely intrinsic, extrinsic, and prospects. These factors correspond with the bias of the respondents towards positive descriptions from the test (Myers Briggs Test Indicators or horoscope test) they were given, as they also used the aforementioned factors as a basis as to why they wanted to incorporate the socially desirable traits into their personality. Consequently, this also affects their preference for the nature of the test, whether it is a personality test or a horoscope test. As personality tests are backed by science and are more socially favored, the students showed an inclination towards it rather that horoscopes. Regarding the quantitative part of the study, in finding the correlation between an individual's Ideal Gap and level of Susceptibility to Barnum effects, little to no correlation was found due to the fact that there were deficiencies in the choosing of the research instrument which affected the statistical data.
