    Age and sex of Miagao public market vendors as determining factors in role preferences on women as portrayed in comic books
    Alvarez, Lee T.; Cababa-an, Glenn C.; Diaz, Gladys C. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 1996-03)
    This research is about age and sex as determining factors in role preferences of the respondents on women as portrayed in comic books. The researchers have chosen the market vendors of Miagao as respondents in this particular study for the reason that most market vendors, if not all, do read comic books. The researchers were able to gather a total of seventy [70] respondents. Of the seventy [70] respondents, thirty-two [32] or forty-six percent [46%] are males and thirty-eight [38] or fifty-four percent [54%] are females. In this study, it was found out that most of the respondents read comic books with the love theme and only a few read comic books having mixed themes. The researchers have also discovered that both the male and female respondents agree that women in most cases were presented in a more conservative rather than in the liberal light. Chi-square statistical tool with .05 level of significance was used and it resulted to the finding that there is no significant relationship between the age, the sex and the preference of the respondents with regards to the roles of women a® portrayed in our local comic books.

    A study on the performance of the regulatory functions of the Kapisanan ng mga Broadcaster sa Pilipinas Iloilo Chapter
    Advincula, Rebecca (Division of Biological Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 1987-03)
    Generally, regulations are viewed as important factors in the functions of an industry or organization. Like any other industry, broadcasting needs to he regulated. The Kapisanan ng mga Brodkaster sa Pilipinas is a self-regulatory body which implements regulations affecting the programming operations of the Broadcast stations. However, not all regulations are said to be followed by the stations. It is in this regard that this study was conducted. Three factors were considered in finding out whether KBP regulations are important to the operations of the stations: the importance and necessity of these regulations; the capability of the KBP in implementing these regulations; and the extent of public participation between KBP and its member stations. The necessity level was determined by a study of each regulatory function, the activities covered by these regulations, and the relative need of the stations to these regulations. The capability level was determined by a study on the frequent observance of the stations to the regulations, the objectives of the respondent stations, and the major output, organizational structure, and budget of the KBP as a regulatory body. Public participation was determined by a study of the frequency used modes of interaction involved in the implementation of the regulations, the problems met in the process, and the respondent stations' rating/assessment of the KBP. The study made use of the one-shot survey design with interview schedule and use of questionnaires as main instruments. The respondents for the KBP are the station managers, while respondents for the regulated are the production staff of the local stations. A total of twelve stations were taken as respondents for the study. Results showed too many regulations are imposed by the KBP and are not strictly followed by the stations. Regulations that are mostly followed are those which pertain to the presentation of news while those often violated pertain to public commentaries and issues, the presentation of materials regarding sex and violence and the airing of commercials. Results showed that these regulations are necessary to maintain a certain level of excellence and professionalism in the broadcast industry, Likewise, the KBP is capable of implementing regulations to the station , as shown by the constant interaction between the regulator and the regulated.
