    Perceived stress, social support and coping strategies on retired teachers' psychological well-being
    Barcelona, Mary Racelyn T. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2015-05)
    Retirement poses significant changes in the lives of the old age population. Along with this are changes in social networks, activities and life outcomes. To examine perceived stress, social support, coping strategies and psychological well-being among retired teachers in Tigbauan, Iloilo, qualitative and quantitative measures were conducted to 41 retired teachers. In general, retired teachers perceive low levels of stress. Factors that contribute to perceived stress are health conditions, financial concerns, family problems and current activities. Social support, which is provided primarily by family and friends, is experienced in high levels. In terms of coping, emotion-focused coping is engaged in by the majority. The leading specific coping strategy they employ is praying or going to church. The majority experience positive levels of psychological well-being, which can be predicted using the variable of social support, as revealed by regression analysis.

    Multiple roles and stress among UPV administration married female employees
    Alejandro, Clara Fe. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2000-10)
    This study explored whether working family women experience stress brought about by their performance of multiple roles as wife, mother, homemaker, and wage-earner. Their 24-hour activity profile was also examined to provide information on how they spend and allocate their time on these various roles. Twenty-three (23) married female employees from the UPV Administration offices were purposively chosen as respondents for this study. The data were obtained by the use of a questionnaire (work and family stress scale) and interview schedule. Results showed that 82.6% of the respondents experience moderate level of stress while 17.4% of the respondents experience low level of stress. Respondents also revealed that the most stressful factor among work and family roles is the conflict on whether to prioritize family over career. While the least stressful variable is the disapproval encountered from people (e.g. family, friends, and neighbors) because they work full-time and do not stay at home. Lastly, the 24-hour activity profile of the respondents showed that aside from their office jobs, they regularly perform a number of homemaking activities.
