    Cabangal, Joann; Ledesma, Chrisgel (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2005-03)
    This study sought to know the sociodemographic characteristics, lifestyle, social- psychological, and cultural adjustment of Korean visitors in Iloilo City, who were currently enrolled in Moohan Tutorial Services, Inc. The results showed that Koreans in Iloilo City are generally single with ages ranging from 20 to 30 years old and are dependent on the allowances they receive from their parents or guardians monthly. The study also showed that Koreans in Iloilo City are relatively well adjusted in their life in the Philippines, which is manifested in their improved social interaction with the locals of Iloilo City. At the same time, they are generally well off as reflected on their spending patterns as compared to the Filipinos’ standard of living. They relatively spend more than an average Filipino would spend for food, transportation, clothing and many others for a certain period of time.

    Children's perception on the gender role content of Philippine television programs
    Brillo, Kharla Mae D.; Cruzada, Felecyl Joy P. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2014-03)
    This study aimed to find out the gender role portrayals in Philippine television programs. The narratives of elementary students regarding their perceptions of two primetime shows, Honesto and Got To Believe were analyzed. The sample consisted of twenty-one (21) respondents that have passed the criteria prior to the interview. The analysis revealed that male characters are perceived to be capable of acquiring a higher level of education and occupation; are generally richer; engage in physically demanding activities; usually care less of how they look and are socially inhibited. Conversely, female characters are perceived to engage in domestic chores; particularly lighter activities; are more creative; are more sociable; are commonly concerned of their physical appearance; and are often victims of maltreatment.
