    Batin, Hazel C.; Torilla, Hanna Mae C. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2009-03)
    The study sought to determine the sources of stress, coping strategies, and sources of social support of seafarers while they are on board. Twenty-three (23) male seafarers served as respondents, they were chosen using the convenience sampling. Questionnaires were utilized to study the variables under investigation. Results showed that seafarers faced problems on board related to their work, emotions, family and their work environmental adjustment. When it comes to managing stress on board, respondents used emotion-focused coping rather than problem-focused. They revealed that they received support from their friends and significant others, but their families were their primary social support.

    When parents are absent: A study on the role of grandmothers in child rearing
    Arguelles, Lorilyn J. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines, 2016-05)
    This study examined the role of the grandmothers in a caregiving role. Role theory was used as a framework to guide this qualitative study. Four grandmothers who provided care for their grandchildren were interviewed. The result showed that grandmothers’ role had shifted from a traditional role to a grandmother caregiver role. As a consequence, grandmothers experienced stress, challenges, on-time or off-time role, life changes, and at the same time positive experiences. They experienced stress, challenges, and difficulties due to the role timing and role strain which hindered them to perform their role successfully. This research also showed that grandmothers, despite their old age, play a major role in child rearing especially when the parents of the children were absent.
