    Age and sex of Miagao public market vendors as determining factors in role preferences on women as portrayed in comic books
    Alvarez, Lee T.; Cababa-an, Glenn C.; Diaz, Gladys C. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 1996-03)
    This research is about age and sex as determining factors in role preferences of the respondents on women as portrayed in comic books. The researchers have chosen the market vendors of Miagao as respondents in this particular study for the reason that most market vendors, if not all, do read comic books. The researchers were able to gather a total of seventy [70] respondents. Of the seventy [70] respondents, thirty-two [32] or forty-six percent [46%] are males and thirty-eight [38] or fifty-four percent [54%] are females. In this study, it was found out that most of the respondents read comic books with the love theme and only a few read comic books having mixed themes. The researchers have also discovered that both the male and female respondents agree that women in most cases were presented in a more conservative rather than in the liberal light. Chi-square statistical tool with .05 level of significance was used and it resulted to the finding that there is no significant relationship between the age, the sex and the preference of the respondents with regards to the roles of women a® portrayed in our local comic books.

    Abalayan, Chris C.; Bachoco, Anecita C.; Hosillos, Rojun V. (Division of Humanities, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 1996-04)
    The study in the effectivity of communication styles used by any individual in different situations has been a subject of many researches. This research would like to find out the relationship of communication styles employed by the College of Arts and Sciences faculty members to their ratings in the student-faculty evaluation. These further aims to know the type of communication styles most of the faculty members of the CAS used in their teachings. Also, the study hopes to determine the preferred communication styles of the students for their teachers and determine what communication style has the highest and/or lowest rating in each of the four criteria in the student-faculty evaluation. A Communication Style Inventory devised by Allan rowe, et. al, 1988 and the Student-Faculty Evaluation used by the whole UP system were the instruments used in the study. The study was conducted in the College of Arts and Sciences, first semester and second semester of Academic Year 1995-1996. Twenty-three faculty members of the Division of Humanities and Division of Social Sciences teaching General Education (G.E.) subjects and students who belongs to the class were randomly chosen as respondents. Findings showed that a consultative communication style dominates majority of the faculty members. However, using the Categorical Method (CATMOD) in solving the data, results of the study showed no significant relationship between communication styles used by the faculty members of the CAS to their ratings in the student-faculty evaluation.
