    Aspero, Maris Pylene P.; Faramiran, Zyreen Lou B. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2013-10)
    This study was conducted to find out the impact of reading lad magazines on the sexual self-schema and sexual aggression in men. One hundred men of fifty readers and fifty non-readers of lad magazines, from a male dominated institution, 18 to 30 years old served as participants of this study. A survey was conducted and four (4) instruments were used to measure the readership, sexual self-schema, and sexual aggression of men. The design of this study was correlational. To show the relationship between the variables, data were analyzed using the Pearson r correlational statistic. The results of this research show that readership of lad magazines is associated with high sexual self-schema in the study sample and the likelihood of being sexually aggressive in comparison to non-readers. Men learned information regarding sex through lad magazines. These magazines also present women in a sexually arousing manner through their pictures and articles. Men's lifestyle was also affected by their readership of lad magazines.

    Necropolitics: Panay's tumandok burial grounds and the Jalaur River Multipurpose Project Phase II (JRMP II)
    Balani, Mar Anthony B.; Mangilog, Jude M. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2016-05)
    The study describes the implications of Tumandok’s (Indigenous Peoples of Central Panay) burial grounds right in the location of the proposed Jalaur River Multipurpose Project Phase II (JRMP-II). The JRMP-II is a development project however appears to be a destructive force to the Indigenous Peoples burial grounds. The study uses the interviews conducted with the Tumandok elders as key informants, personnel of offices in-charge of the construction of JRMP- II, identification and mapping of burial grounds, and close reading of international and domestic laws on and protection of sacred sites experiences. This study argues that burial grounds should be seen as a form of resistance to state sponsored development project as supported by international examples of jurisprudence and laws on the protection of sacred sites and the deep sense of conservation of the Indigenous Peoples for their hallowed grounds. This places Indigenous Peoples’ burial grounds in a pivotal role in the perspective of necropolitics as a material evidence of contestation on State policies. This study hopes to expand the notion of necropolitics by including the power to influence by the dead and their burial grounds on the aggressive policies of the state.

    Labor market indicators and crime rate in the Philippines using regional panel data regression analysis
    Abonado, Alexander O.; Legayada, Frentien Ruigi L. (Division of Social Sciences, College of Arts and Sciences, University of the Philippines Visayas, 2016-05)
    Few empirical research exists that study on the relationship between labor market indicators and crime and those studies that have done so, use national level data. This paper aims to determine the relationship of labor market indicators and crime rate in 17 regions in the Philippines using regional-level panel data analysis. A regression analysis has been presented using data from three different time periods-2002 to 2008, 2009 to 2014, and 2002 to 2014. The evidence suggests that completion rates in both primary and secondary and gross regional domestic product per capita have consistent and significant effects on crime whereas labor market indicator variables, such as unemployment rate, underemployment rate and labor force participation rate have statistically insignificant coefficient estimates.
