    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.

    Illness according to the manogbulong (folk healers) of Igbaras and Miagao, Iloilo
    Aquino, Mary Grace P. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 1999-04)
    This study explores and documents the different attributions of illness by manogbulong or folk healers of Miagao and Igbaras in the province of Iloilo. It contributes to the deepening of our understanding of indigenous conceptions of and illness. Different practices indicate one or more specializations among the selected manogbulong, namely: surhuano, surhuana, manoghilot, manogluy-a, paltira, baylan, and manogbot-bot. There are three different causes of illness according to the manogbulong. Unseen beings (like fairies, the elves, ghosts); persons with special powers (such as witches and sorcerers), and, physiological functions or injuries (like cramps, muscle pains, fatigue, kibit, bali or bone dislocation, etc.). The results of the study are as follows: First, sex (male/female) and type of locality (upland or coastal) of the manogbulong does not affect their perception of illness. Second, differences on perception of illness are associated with their specialization. For example, the surhuano/ surhuana believed that unseen beings and people with special powers are always the cause of illness. The manoghilot on the other hand believed that hangin (cold air) is the primary cause of illness. When the hangin penetrates the ugat(blood vessel), an illness of physiological ailment occurs.
