The scale 5 - Very Aware, 4 — Aware, 3 — Moderately Aware, 2 — Little Aware and 1 — Not Aware At All was used to measure the respondents’ level of awareness. As for the effects of the campaign, the respondents strongly agreed that the campaign affects their social networking (Table 2. pg. 40) but it is not yet verified if it affects them positively or negatively. The scale 5 — Strongly Agree, 4 — Agree, 3 — Neither Agree Nor Disagree, 2 — Disagree and 1 - Strongly Agree was used to measure the campaign’s effects towards the respondents. Conclusively. awareness of the respondents has no significant effect on the effects of the campaign. Think Before You Click campaign is not very effective in promoting responsible use of social media among selected Mass Communication students. Respondents may be aware about the campaign and agree on the cited effects of TBYC but it doesn’t mean that it affects them and they apply it. Thus, this study proved that awareness do not always lead to practice.
