    Some family-related variables in attitude towards aging among the elderly
    Bastareche, Ros Anne T.; Fernandez, Tanya Marie P. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2017-06)
    This study investigated the relationship of attitude towards aging with some family- related variables including: perception on spouse's death, perception of social support and satisfaction with family life. A total of 61 (N= 61) male and female, widowed and non-widowed elderlies, was included in the study. The design of the study was descriptive-correlational. Data were analyzed using Spearman’s rho Correlation Coefficient and Mann Whitney U Test with alpha level pegged at 0.05. Results showed that there was a significant difference in attitudes between widowed and nonwidowed elderlies with the latter showing more positive valence. In addition, the elderly’s perception of social support was significantly correlated with their attitudes toward aging. The expected relationship of the elderly’s attitude towards aging and other variables were not supported.

    Alonday, Cheska Arianne C.; Casuyon, Meika Ella G. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2015-06)
    Nuclear family has been the common type of family in the society in the past but as time passed by, different forms of family emerged as well as family structure and the dynamics of the family have been changing. This study focused on the nature of social support in an intergenerational Ilonggo family specifically in fishing community. It discussed the different types of support, such as financial, emotional, and instrumental, exchanged among the family members and illustrated each patterns of support through the use of sociometry for the analysis of data gathered. This study also aimed to know whether there is a connection between the degrees of interaction to the social support exchanged. An intergenerational family household was purposively selected in Miagao, Iloilo which served as a case study. Each family member was asked to evaluate other family members individually through questionnaires. The result showed that the norms and the gender roles play an important part in the exchange of social support of the Filipino family members including their role obligations as well as the degree of interaction do not dictate the support given and received by the family members.
