    The effect of perceiver's gender and masculinity on male masculinity performing female streotypic roles
    Cabrera, Gresilita Liza B.; Ochon, Maybelle Lalaine T. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2003-10)
    This study was designed to examine the effects of perceiver’s gender and masculinity cues on male masculinity performing female stereotypic roles. 60 participants consisting of thirty males and thirty females, were randomly selected and assigned to four treatment groups. The groups had been assessed using the Instrument which comprises three descriptions with five items for the first description and 10 items for both the second and third descriptions. A 2x2 factorial design and two-way between ANOVA were used with a 0.05 significance level. The results showed that perceiver’s gender did not affect perception but masculinity cues yielded a considerable mark. Both male and female responded remarkably on descriptions with high masculinity cues only. The results further indicated that there is no interaction between the two independent variables.

    Asperga, Altheamae V.; EScoto, Mia Frances A. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2007-03)
    This is a descriptive study which sought to determine the following: (1) the levels of self-esteem among househusbands, (2) their coping strategies towards problems and stress, (3) and their views on the concept of masculinity. Twenty-eight househusbands with wives working abroad participated in the study. The research utilized the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale, the COPE Inventory, and a masculinity scale to measure the three variables respectively. The results yielded a high level of self-esteem for these househusbands. For the coping strategies, it was found out that the three most often used coping styles were that of religious, followed by planning, and active coping. The least employed was the substance use coping probably because it is highly associated with being an irresponsible father and husbands. On the other hand, there was no significant difference found between the househusbands’ who had traditional and progressive views on masculinity.
