This study focused on three particular facets of personality of children of displaced workers: locus of control, resilience, and self-esteem which were examined using the CNSIE scale, Ego Resiliency Scale, Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and an interview schedule. The study included 37 respondents (14 males, 23 females) aged 14-21 years old, who were children of displaced workers from Palawan. Based on the data gathered, it was found that majority of the respondents had external locus of control, high resilience, and low self-esteem. It was further deduced that parents’ displacement from work has an influence among their children’s personality development.viii, 71 p.Locus of controlResilienceSelf-esteemPersonality developmentDisplaced workersLG 993.5 2010 P7 B66Thesisbehaviourresilienceunemploymentfamily structuremental healthSDG 3 - Good health and well-beingSDG 8 - Decent work and economic growthSDG 10 - Reduced inequalities
