    Effects of job burnout, emotional labor and workplace relationship on work performance of selected full time fast food service crews
    Baello, Mary Antonette P. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2015-05)
    This study sought to examine the effects of job burnout, emotional labor and workplace relationship on work performance of fast food employees. The respondents were composed of 41 service crews (20 males, 21 females) working on an 8-hour shift from a selected fast food establishment located within Iloilo City. This study is descriptive in nature. A Self-Diagnosis Instrument for Burnout by Pines and Aronson, Emotional Labor Scale by Brotheridge and Lee and Employee Evaluation Form for Food Service Personnel were the scales used throughout the study. Data were analyzed using a simple linear regression. Analysis revealed that job burnout and emotional labor were not predictive of work performance. However, positive work relationships have alleviated degrees of burnout and levels of emotional labor through producing positive work attitudes.

    Aurecencia, Lory Stel Z.; Lorenzo, Ma. Concepcion A. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2014-03)
    This study aims to know and compare the marital satisfaction, trust and intimacy of wives in long distance and geographically close relationships. Forty (40) wives of seafarers from Miagao, Iloilo were selected through referral sampling for the long distance relationship and 40 wives from Lapaz, Iloilo City were selected through convenience sampling for the geographically close relationship. Four (4) respondents were interviewed for each type of relationship. Four (4) instruments were utilized namely: Enrich Marital Satisfaction Scale, Trust in Close Relationships Scale, Miller Social Intimacy Scale, and an interview guide developed by the researchers. Results showed that the respondents are generally satisfied, trusting, and are intimate with their partners. Wives in long distance and geographically close relationships do not significantly differ in marital satisfaction and trust but significantly differ in intimacy. Furthermore, distance does not significantly affect marital satisfaction and trust but there is a moderately negative correlation between distance and intimacy.

    Balan, Anna Gabriell D. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2015-05)
    This study examined the knowledge on disaster risk, psychological preparedness for disaster threat and psychosocial factors of resiliency among artisanal fishers after typhoon Yolanda. Eighty-eight artisanal fishers participated in eight focus group discussions (FGDs) with 8-15 members each. They were administered a Hiligaynon-translated subscale of the Psychological Preparedness for Disaster Threat Scale or PPDTS (Zulch, Morrissey, Reser & Creed, 2012) and were asked questions guided by the developed Knowledge on Disaster Risk interview schedule and Psychosocial Factors of Resiliency interview schedule. Results showed that participants became more knowledgeable on disaster risk after typhoon Yolanda. Their knowledge is influenced by internal and external factors. They also displayed a high psychological preparedness for disaster threat. Psychosocial factors of resiliency that worked best for the participants are being resourceful and initiating a self-help strategy, assuming family- responsibility, faith in God, and material support coming from the different institutions.
