    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.

    The agricultural education outreach project in Aklan: Barangay Sibalew, Banga
    Bautista, Reynold R. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 1992-07)
    This study uses the concept of agricultural extension as a catalyst of change for rural development. Suffice it to say, the objective of agricultural extension is to provide the rural people the appropriate information, technology and values to make them self-reliant in the context of their own environment. However, the realisation of this goal is dependent on the extent of acceptance and participation of the rural people themselves. In this study, the Aklan Agricultural College-Agricultural Education Outreach Project in Aklan is supposed to bring self- reliance among the farmers of barangay Sibalew, Bangs by effective transfer of appropriate technology. Based on the principles of extension service, it has been determined that the A.E.0.p project in Sibalew, particularly its economic and social services, has been instrumental in improving the productivity and income and broadly, the social and economic aspects or the farmers life. Needless to say, the A.E.0.P-introduced technologies have been embraced by the majority of farmers in the barangay--which exemplifies the effectiveness of the A.E.O.P project.

    Arzaga, Marie Christine E.; Taladtad, Mary Jane E. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2003-03)
    The study seeks to determine the different reasons for dropping out of school among high school dropouts in Barangay Indag-an and Barangay Tan-agan, Miag-ao, Iloilo. Specifically, it wants to find out: (1) the financial status of the family, (2) the student-teacher relationship, and (3) the social activities of the students at the time of dropping out. Twenty one (21) respondents composed of eighteen (18) males and three (3) females participated in the study. All of them were high school dropouts found in Barangay Indag-an and Barangay Tan-agan, Miag-ao Iloilo who have dropped out of school from the recent 2002 to the last ten years. This study used interview schedule to measure the differences of reasons for dropping out. The instrument was made up of three parts: financial status of the family, the student-teacher relationship, and social activities of the students at the time of dropping out. The frequency and percentage distribution were utilized in interpreting the data. The results of this study revealed that financial status of the respondent’s family and the social activities they engaged in were the greatest factor in motivating them to quit schooling. Student-teacher relationship on the other hand, had the least motivation for students to quit schooling.
