(Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2007-03)The study was conducted to find out the roles and values change and adjustments in the family relationships undergone by an Overseas Filipino Worker (OFW) returnee during his post-employment. Thirty (30) OFW returnees from chosen Barangays in Tigbauan, Iloilo participated in answering the Traditional Marital Role Questionnaire, Experience in Close Relationships-Revised (ECR-R) Questionnaire, and an interview guide for the assessment of their Filipino Values and Ideals. Results show that most of the traditional marital roles are not exclusive anymore to one spouse, rather done by both. Good relationship based on trust was found among majority of the respondents since they are securely-attached to their families. Positive values change in respect became apparent for some OFWs who alleviated the family’s situation.Item Attachment to parents, psychological well-being, and life aspirations of children in selected coastal communitiesAraneta, Czarinnah G.; Suyo, Jee Grace B.
