    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.

    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.
