    Love teams vs. love teens: How the scripted relationships affect the perceptions and the attitudes of teenagers on REALationships
    Bolaño, April F.; Calubiran, Petty Dane C.; Dolor, Joanne Amor D. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2018-04)
    Aside from being the second most avid television consumers, Filipinos especially teenagers, have become increasingly immersed to watching romantic-themed teleseryes by the different emerging love teams such as JaDine and KathNiel. The evident fandom to these love teams lead to the conduct of the study to identify the effects of the scripted portrayal of a romantic love and relationship to the perceptions and the attitudes of teenagers on romantic love. Research design using qualitative and quantitative approach was utilized. George Gerbner's Cultivation Theory was used to answer how exposure affects the perceptions and the attitudes of teenagers on romantic love. The survey was conducted among 90 qualified respondents across (3) three public high schools in Miag-ao, Iloilo. The 5—point Likert scale was used to measure the influence of the two love teams' teleseyes in the perceptions and the attitudes of teenagers. Results show that high exposure on teleseryes affect teenagers' perceptions and attitudes on romantic love as portrayed by the love teams. However, it was also noted as per results, that not all that were shown in the teleseryes are being mirrored by teenagers as real since they also critic if those depictions of romantic love really happen in reality.

    Like mother, like daughter: Exploring the mother-daughter relationships and intergenerational early pregnancies
    Bohos, Maecy Antonette C.; Delgado, Ken Ryan T. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2022-07)
    This qualitative study is a scientific investigation on the local contexts of intergenerational early pregnancy. It specifically looks into the relationships between mothers and daughters to uncover the underlying social realities that shape the phenomenon. Social Learning Theory is used to frame the study and to assist in the understanding of the mother-daughter relationships and intergenerational early pregnancy. To collect the data, this study used in-depth interviews of 5 motherdaughter dyads (N=10) from two provinces—North Cotabato and Antique. Following the interviews, the data was organized and analyzed using the approach Thematic Network Analysis. The results generated the 4 organizing themes with corresponding basic themes/subthemes: (1) lived experiences during early pregnancy with subthemes reactions to pregnancy, challenges experienced, coping mechanisms, and external support; (2) family dynamics with subthemes family status, physical and emotional distance, and parental monitoring; (3) mother-daughter communication with subthemes conversations, and sexual and reproductive health communication; and (4) daughter's sexual and reproductive health knowledge and behaviors with subthemes sources of SRH education, level of knowledge, and early sexual initiation. The study's findings suggest the need for parent-based or family-centered interventions regarding adolescent sexual and reproductive health. Early pregnancy becoming intergenerational among Filipino families further encourages the cycle of poverty.

    They called me a slut: The process of shaming and its influence on the self-concept and sexual reputation of teenage girls
    Bahinting, Grace Katrina F. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2017-06)
    This phenomenological study explored women’s slut-shaming experiences in school, how they managed the ‘slut’ label and how the label influenced their selfconcept and sexual reputation. Three college students from Bacolod City, Negros Occidental were interviewed for this project. The participants aged 18-23 years have experienced slut-shaming incidents in school. The methodology for this study consisted of conducting in-depth interviews exploring the slut-shaming experiences of the participants and Rosenberg’s Self-Esteem Scale to measure the participants’ current self-esteem. The data gathered on the experiences encountered by slut-shamed girls were recorded, transcribed and analyzed using the Bedevilment and Labeling Process by John Curra (1994). The results of the study showed that factors which led to slut-shaming includes individual characteristics, flirting style and sexual activity. Two forms of slut-shaming experiences in school emerged from the data gathered: being gossiped and ostracism. Furthermore, the label management of the participants which includes embracing, ignoring and moving away from the label, were influenced by the degree of importance of the labellers and the girls' own perception of a slut. The data showed that the shamed individuals had positive and negative self-concept after shaming and was seen as someone who was sexually dirty. In conclusion, the influence of shaming to the girls’ self-concept varies depending on how the shamed individual manages the slut label.
