    Perception of effective teacher interpersonal behavior and teaching method in relation to student's academic success
    Canabal, Ge-Ann D. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2015-06)
    This study examined the relationship among the factors influencing the academic success of college students namely: student’s perception of effective teacher interpersonal behavior and teaching method. A survey was done on 155 respondents using three instruments to measure the variables. The data gathered were analyzed using Multiple Regression. Results showed that students perceived the cooperative-type of teacher as more effective than the dominant-type. It was found that both subscale values of student’s perception of effective teacher interpersonal behavior namely dominance and cooperation were predictive of student’s academic success. Also, students perceived the student-centered method of teaching as more effective than the teacher-centered method. Furthermore, it was revealed that only the student-centered method was predictive of student’s academic success.

    Personal meanings, experiences, and coping strategies for poverty of women 4P's beneficiaries
    Acuesta, Princes B. (Division of Biological Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2015-06)
    This is a phenomenological study which sought to describe the experiences of poverty of women Pantawid Pamilyang Pilipino Program (4Ps) beneficiaries, their personal understanding of poverty, how their membership in 4Ps has affected their experiences of poverty, and their strategies for coping with difficulties associated with poverty. The participants of this study were four women 4Ps beneficiaries residing in Bay-bay Sur, Miagao, Iloilo. An interview guide questionnaire was constructed to gather narratives of poverty experiences from the participants. The results showed that personal meanings of poverty and the experiences of poverty among the participants are generally similar. All of the participants reported that 4Ps lessened their poverty experience in a relative sense. They all believed that daily struggles of inadequacy of basic needs could be fought by hard work. Lastly, all the participants believed that education is the key to their economic mobility and better way of life.
