    Life after loss: A phenomenological study of adolescents who lost a parent
    Bahague, April Dawn G. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2016-05)
    The aim of this phenomenological study was to achieve deeper and broader understanding on the lived experiences of adolescents who lost a parent. Interviews were conducted with six participants, ages 17-19 years old using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. The tape- recorded interviews with the adolescent participants were analysed using IPA. The data identified three general themes that reveal the adolescents’ lived experiences: experiencing changes in family pattern, changes in relationship with other people and changes in one’s inner. Findings of the study indicated that the adolescents’ relationship with other family members, relatives and friends or peers provided them with social, emotional and financial support at the time they needed it the most. However, the relationship with this same set of people also caused conflict and other negatively-themed experiences.

    Attachment to parents, psychological well-being, and life aspirations of children in selected coastal communities
    Araneta, Czarinnah G.; Suyo, Jee Grace B. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, Bachelor of Arts (Psychology), 2005-03)
    This study examined the level of attachment to parents and psychological well-being of the children and likewise the life aspirations of these children in selected coastal communities. Twenty-one males (21) and thirty-one (31) females with 12-16 years of age participated in this study. Two scales were used to rate the attachment to parents and psychological well-being of the respondents and an interview guide to know the life aspirations of the children. It was found out that the children of coastal communities generally have a positive psychological well-being and a high level of attachment to parents. The participants expressed their top three goals in life - finishing studies, life prosperity and service to God. They wanted to find high paying professional jobs and help in the income of their family. They also wished to live prosperously in a clean and peaceful community.
