    (2023-12) Primo, Orly Thomas
    This study aimed to explore the mental health system of selected municipalities in the province of Benguet. The following specific problems were answered: 1. What are the mental health policies and legislations crafted in the selected municipalities of Benguet and how are these implemented? 2. What are the strategies implemented by the selected municipalities of Benguet in delivering mental health services to the community in terms of promotion, prevention, treatment, and rehabilitation? 3. What are the experiences of mental health service users in the selected municipalities of Benguet in obtaining essential mental health services? Participating municipalities were purposely selected. The first five municipalities with the highest number of mental health cases in 2022 were selected. This were the municipalities of Buguias, Tuba, La Trinidad, Kapangan, and Kabayan. However, upon coordination with the municipality of Tuba, it expressed its intention not to be involved in the research. Hence, only four municipalities were involved. Each municipality was represented by the mental health coordinator, nurses, pharmacists, and municipal health officers. Thirty mental health service users were also selected equally divided among the five municipalities. However, due to the nonavailability of service users in some municiplaities ( La Trinidada, Buguias, and Kabayan), caregivers were added as part of the study. An assessment was conducted through document review and document verification using the developed questionnaire adapted from WHO-AIMS version 2.2. This was conducted individually through field visits at the RHUs. Mental health coordinators, pharmacists, nurses, and municipal health officers composed the team in the five municipalities with the highest mental health cases in the last calendar year. Focus group discussions and key informant interviews were conducted among mental health service users and caregivers. Data gathered were tabulated, analyzed, and interpreted.

    (2021-04) Tayaban, Hylene Samuel
    Drugs are a prevalent issue in the Philippines and have been controversial due to the government's 'war on drugs' since 2016. This study looked into the subjective experiences of persons with SUD to their therapeutic community experience in a treatment and rehabilitation facility, the challenges they encountered upon their discharge, and their coping. The results of the study assisted in the identification of the themes common to the experiences of persons with SUD. Further, the results may serve as a basis for the construction of intervention programs that would supplement the recovery process of persons with SUD and maintain their sobriety. This study determined the experiences of persons with SUD in their treatment and rehabilitation. Specifically, it seeks to answer the following questions: 1. What are the therapeutic community experiences of the respondents as in-patients in the treatment and rehabilitation facility? 2. What are the challenges faced by the respondents after discharge? 3. What are the coping strategies of the respondents? The researcher used the qualitative research approach specifically on the interpretive phenomenological method. The population of the study involves ten male adults who completed their treatment and rehabilitation program and were residing in Baguio City, Benguet during the time of the data gathering. In-depth interviews were used to gather data among the respondents and one family member or friend. 1. There were four main themes under the therapeutic community experiences of the respondent namely: community separateness, psychoeducation activities, interpersonal experiences, and intrapersonal experiences. a. The introspection has the highest frequency of responses as a subtheme under the community separateness. It is followed by resistance, longing for loved ones, and a changed perception towards rehabilitation with the same frequency. b. In psychoeducation activities, cognitive-behavioral management has the highest frequency of responses. Health and spiritual dimensions followed. The least frequently identified were affective/emotional dimensions and psychomotor/vocational-survival skills. c. The leadership roles have the highest frequency of responses under the interpersonal experiences, followed by the peer roles and then the staff roles. d. Under intrapersonal experiences, personal responsibility has the highest frequency of responses. It is followed by both patience and self-motivation. Valuing has the least frequency of responses. 2. The highest frequency of responses along with the challenges encountered by the persons with SUD is relational challenges; followed by the financial concerns and the effects of the pandemic, and by shame and stigma. Fear came after and relapse is the least. 3. In the area of coping of persons with SUD, both positive reappraisal and self-control have the highest frequency of responses. It is followed by productivity, hope, and priorities consecutively. a. The highest frequency of responses along the sources of support was from the family of the persons with SUD, followed by friends, the aftercare programs, and the community as the least. Based on the findings, the following conclusions are derived. 1. Generally, the therapeutic community experiences of the persons with SUD yielded positive experiences and enabled them to recover from their SUD. a. The experiences with the community separateness of persons with SUD are a combination of positive and negative emotions and experiences that resulted in the achievement of the TC's treatment and rehabilitation goals. b. The psychoeducation activities in the TC promoted the different areas of growth and development of the persons with SUD. c. The interpersonal experiences of the persons with SUD with the other TC members elicited various roles they have to be responsible and accountable for. d. The intrapersonal experiences caused by the TC experience among the persons with SUD yielded to their self-development. 2. Personal and environmental sources of challenges were encountered by the persons with SUD. 3. The coping strategies of persons with SUD are an interplay of both their cognitive and behavioral processes. It lessened the difficulties brought about by various challenges concerning their condition. a. The persons with SUD have a strong support system that helps them in their recovery process. Based on the conclusions, the following are recommended. 1. The following are suggested for the Therapeutic Community Approach experience of the persons with SUD: a. The Therapeutic Community Approach is encouraged to be integrated into the treatment and rehabilitation of persons with Substance Use Disorder. b. The rehabilitation facilities can be equipped with staff equivalent to the increasing number of admissions to better address the concerns of the patients. c. Individual counseling sessions can be enforced as an additional intervention to process issues not addressed by the collective method. d. Family therapies may be facilitated depending on the need of each TC member. e. The supplementary interventions proposed by the researcher may be reviewed by administrators of the drug treatment and rehabilitation facilities for possible implementation. f. The model generated may serve as an evaluation as well as a basis for implementing programs and interventions in the drug treatment and rehabilitation facilities. 2. The following are suggested for the challenges encountered by the persons with SUD upon discharge: a. The local government unit can provide employment opportunities for individuals who underwent treatment and rehabilitation. This is an immediate need among individuals who were separated from society for quite some time. b. Appointed psychologists or therapists can be assigned in the community for consultation of the persons with SUD about the challenges they experience. 3. The following are suggested for the coping of the persons with SUD: a. Community psychoeducation on shame and stigma may be implemented to further strengthen the support system of the persons with SUD. b. An aftercare or probationary period, as a form of follow-up, may be enforced on all persons with SUD after their treatment and rehabilitation. This will lessen the likelihood of relapse and monitor the continuing recovery of persons with SUD. 4. Further studies may be conducted among the special population such as the LGBT community. A comparative study may be conducted between those who volunteered for treatment and those who were required by the court order. Also, a comparative study on the effectiveness of TC implemented in in-patient facilities, out-patient programs, aftercare monitoring, and probation may also be studied.

    Everyday politics of contract of service and job order employees in DMMMSU
    (2021-11) Ballesteros, Jefferson M.
    Contractual, temporary, or casual employment is a practice for organizations all over the world. It is a strategy to enhance competitiveness and to maintain low costs. The International Labor Organization (ILO) calls contractual employment as non-standard employment (NSE) because it is not the usual employment. In the Philippines, contractual employment is practiced in both private and public sector. In the public sector, they are either contract of service (COS) or job order (JO) employees. The state universities and colleges employ COS and JO employees, and Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University (DMMMSU) is no exemption. The study explored the everyday politics of COS and JO employees with the intention of bringing to light their sentiments through their lived experiences along the following areas: motivating factors of staying in the job as COS and JO employees, implementation of the CSC Joint Circular No. 1 s. 2017, and their coping mechanisms with the challenges that they encounter as contractual employees. It is hoped that through these shared lived experiences, DMMMSU will review its policies and revise what ought to be in order for it to become a healthier and productive organization. The study explored the lived experiences of the COS and JO employees of DMMMSU. Specifically, the study answered the following questions: 1. What are the factors that motivated the COS and JO employees to apply for and keep on renewing their contract of service and job order work at DMMMSU? 2. In what varied ways did the COS and JO employees of DMMMSU experience the implementation of the CSC Joint Circular No. 1 s. 2017 and other rules and regulations along the following areas: a. term of contract, renewal of contract, eligibility and other qualification requirements; b. job description and organizational involvement; c. compensation and social benefits? 3. How did the COS and JO employees of DMMMSU cope with the challenging experiences they had from the implementation of the CSC Joint Circular No. 1, s. 2017 and other rules and regulations? The study used a qualitative-phenomenological research design to understand the nature of everyday politics among the contractual employees of DMMMSU and to understand their lived experiences under the implementation of circulars and rules and regulations that govern the nature of their employment. Three campuses of Don Mariano Marcos Memorial State University namely, North La Union Campus at Bacnotan La Union (NLUC), Mid-La Union Campus (MLUC) at San Fernando La Union and South La Union Campus at Agoo La Union (SLUG) were involved in this study. There were fourteen (14) participants, twelve COS and JO employees and two from the DMMMSU Administration. The data gathering instrument used was a semi-structured interview guide with open-ended questions to enable the participants to give in-depth answers. The participants were interviewed; the data were processed, coded, and analyzed. Themes were identified and extracted from the shared lived experiences. Based on the research problems, the following are the findings: 1. Most of the participants from the COS and JO employees of DMt4MSU originally worked with the private sector. They all experienced unpleasant treatment from heads and regular employees in varied degrees, disappointments regarding awarding of plantillas, and lesser benefits than regular employees. However, the motivating factors that directed them to apply then later on keep on renewing their being COS and JO employees of DMMMSU are those that were missing in their previous workplaces. These are job security, awarding of plantilla item, fast and valuable promotions, flexible work schedule, compensations and benefits, and personal and professional growth and development. 2. a. Along the area of Term of Contract and Eligibility, the COS and JO employees were fully aware that they did not have the full credentials before they applied. Some of them did not even have the minimum requirement of civil service eligibility yet they still applied. Once they were hired, although as contractual employees with fewer benefits and overloaded with work, they were given opportunities to fulfill the qualification requirements for regular employees. Among these benefits include scholarships for graduate studies, seminars and training for their professional growth and development as well as a time to review for the civil service examination for those who did not have a civil service eligibility. b. Along the area of Job Description and Organizational Involvement, there appeared to be inadequate orientation about their regular tasks and the organizational culture of giving contractual employees a heavy workload and additional tasks that are outside their regular work. They realized that in order for them to secure their contractual employment, they need to know about the organization culture though such may be disadvantageous to their well-being like the bureaucratic red tape, tolerating unfair and hostile treatment from some of the regular employees and superiors, obeying without any question their heads and memos that were forwarded to them, submission of requirements in a short notice, and inconsistent implementation of certain policies. All of these affected the contractual employees' morale and organizational involvement. c. Along the area of Compensation and Social Benefits, the contractual employees experienced work overload and overtime but without a corresponding monetary compensation. As contractual employees, the payment of their salaries was also delayed and they also have limited social benefits if compared with their regular counterparts. And when they avail of scholarships or attend seminars or trainings, they shoulder the cost first and expect the reimbursement once the budget is released. 3. Given the challenges of work overload without a corresponding monetary compensation, unfair treatment from some regular employees and heads, bureaucratic red tape, inconsistency in the implementation of policies, and always pleasing their superiors, the contractual employees coped with these challenges by adopting some of the practices within the same organization where they had complaints. These coping mechanisms include the observance of patronage, pasipsipan, and plastikan. They also tend to depend on monetary loans. On the other hand, their positive coping mechanisms include a heightened perseverance and commitment to the job, taking advantage of Professional Development Benefits, trusting on the fulfillment of the promised plantilla item, and resistance against unfairness. Based on the findings, the following are the conclusions: 1. The factors that motivated the COS and JO employees to apply for and keep on renewing their contractual employment at DMMMSU are compensations and benefits, better work status and condition which includes flexible work schedule and job security, and opportunities for professional growth and development. 2. In the implementation of CSC Joint Circular No. 1 s. 2017 and other rules and regulations, the lived experiences of COS and JO employees of DMMMSU are: a. Along the area of terms of contract and eligibility, they experienced the consequences of contractualization of labor. b. Along the area of job description and organizational involvement, they experienced unpaid additional tasks, being at the mercy of superiors, prejudicial and unfair treatment, prevalence of red tape, and improper or inconsistent implementation of policies and regulations. c. Along the area of compensation and social benefits, they experienced additional tasks with no corresponding compensation and delayed payment of compensation. 3. The COS and JO employees' coping mechanisms with their challenging experiences from the implementation of CSC Joint Circular No. 1 s. 2017 and other rules and regulations were: heightened perseverance and commitment to the job; patronage, pasipsipan, plastikan; dependence on loans; taking advantage of Professional Development opportunities; trusting the fulfillment of the promised regularization of employment; and resistance against unfairness. Based on the findings, the following are recommended: 1. The identified factors that make the COS and JO employees stay in the job shall be sustained. However, there is a need for DMMMSU to review and validate the identified issues along each of the factors in order for it to improve its policy implementation and to enhance the quality of life of its employees who are working under the employment status of contractual and job order. In addition, the highlighted feelings and sentiments of the COS and JO employees shall not be dismissed easily but be considered as essential information to be used in developing programs and policies for employee welfare. Appendix G may be reviewed and considered. 2. a. To address the issues concerning contracts and eligibility, it is recommended that the institution conduct benchmarking to extract best practices on how to support contractuals in achieving permanent status faster. Policy development on the strict implementation of contract specifications and agreements is also recommended. b. In relation to the issues along the area of job description and organizational involvement, it is recommended that standardization of assignment and promotion be enforced to do away with discretion of superiors. c. To address the issues along the area of compensation and social benefits, the strict enforcement of the CSC Joint Circular No. 1 s. 2017 is recommended as well as the strict implementation of the faculty handbook to make sure that the faculty and staff be compensated for the load that are assigned to them, that extra or overload be regulated, and for the staff, that overtime or extra duties be compensated. 3. In relation to the issues on coping mechanisms, it is recommended that a venue for the employees in the form of a support group such as an apolitical faculty club or association be formed for them to voice out their opinions and concerns without the fear of not being considered for promotion or regularization. This support group will also cater to the welfare of the COS and JO employees as regards prejudice or unfair treatment. 4. Further studies on everyday politics should be conducted especially with regard to policy development. Additional studies are also recommended on contractualization and regularization on different aspects, such as the work-life balance, impact on the economy, impact on the labor sector, and other similar issues.

    Political engagement of the youth in Banaue, Ifugao
    (2021-03) Bunaton, Jezeebel Bana-ao
    All throughout the world, the population of young people is drastically increasing giving a chance to each individual to prove how participation would bring about the change that is expected to happen. In the Philippines, research revealed that there is an equal number of youth who claim to be active members of different youth organizations which suggest that they are not ignorant of the social problems and inequalities of the society. Sarmiento and Ignacio (2015) said that the young people are given opportunities to be politically active through organizing events and rallies. But instead of being indulged as the future leaders, youth become active critics of the government. They express themselves with subversive style that tends to weaken the political system and the government. The chronicles of the Philippine nation is the history of youthful aspirations for change. Some of the major figures of the Philippine struggle of independence from Spain had barely reached adulthood when they produce their bravest deeds. According to Velasco (n.d) Jose Rizal published his novel Noli Me Tangere (which meant "Touch Me Not") that exposed the abuses of the Spanish clergy in 1866 when he was just 25 years old. Andres Bonifacio and Emilio Jacinto who were founders of the insurgency movement began organizing the resistance to the colonial state when they were in their twenties. Bonifacio's wife, Gregoria de Jesus was just 21 years old when she joined the nationalist struggle in 1896. And Emilio Aguinaldo was only 29 years old when the flag of the First Philippine Republic was unfurled in 1898 and he assumed presidency. However, despite the progressive language of empowerment and participation, patronage, class and elite politics continue to undermine Philippine democratization. But despite such flaws, researches revealed that there is an equal number of youth who claim to be active members of different youth organizations which suggest that they are not ignorant of the social problems and inequalities of the society. Moreover, becoming involved in transforming the youth's needs into policies, programs and reforms is an altogether different issue. In the municipal level, there are forces limiting youth participation. For example, it is difficult to promote participation when community agencies view young people as passive recipients of service rather than as competent citizens. Participation is also limited when adults treat the youth as inferior and disregard their potential because their age, instead of encouraging them to participate more, the dominant view of the young people as being withdrawn or disengaged lowers expectations. The research aims to better understand general elections and voter's political participation, voting behavior, community involvement, enhancement of knowledge, reasons for voting in elections and the qualities of a political candidate that the youth preferred. This study was conducted in relation to the young people's participation, awareness, and effectiveness to contribute in nation building. This study aims to determine the extent of participation of the youth in the democratic process, the reason for voting in elections and the qualities of a good political candidate. Specifically, it seeks to answer the following questions:1. What is the extent of participation of the youth in the democratic process in terms of: a. voting behavior b. community involvement c. enhancement in political knowledge. 2. What are the reasons of the youth for voting in the elections? 3. What are the endearing qualities of the candidates the youth preferred? The following are the major findings of the study: 1. Voting behavior indicators of the youth is described as moderate participation. 2. Community involvement of the youth during election is described as moderate participation. 3. The youth's enhancement of political knowledge is described as moderate participation in the general elections. 4. The sense of being a responsible citizen was the main reason of the youth in voting during elections. 5. The youth preferred a candidate who is trustworthy. In the view of the foregoing, the following inferences are drawn: 1. It can be concluded that the youth of Banaue, Ifugao are moderately active in terms of political participation. Their voting behavior and enhancement in political knowledge is described as moderate participation while their community involvement resulted into weak participation. 2. Young people generally participated in elections because they believe that it is part of their civic duty as responsible citizens. While political parties serve as vehicles for stability and good governance, young voters of Banaue, Ifugao pay a little emphasis of the candidate's political affiliation but instead, they focus more on supporting a relative or a friend that is running for public office. 3. Young voters of Banaue, Ifugao preferred a political candidate who is trustworthy, has accomplishments and good track record while a candidate belonging to a well-known family and physical appearance are not considered by the youth as personal qualities in choosing their candidate in the past 2016 National and Local Elections. Based on the findings and conclusions of the study, the following recommendations are presented: 1. Results revealed that the youth participation in the democratic process is described as moderate with a numerical value that is considered low. It is therefore recommended that leadership training programs for the youth, awareness campaigns during election season, establishment of youth councils or organizations aside from the SK and finally, SK projects should be assessed for sustainability for a higher number of youth participation.2. It can be observed from the results that the main reason of the youth in voting for the past National and Local Election is due to the fact that it is part of their civic duty as a responsible citizen. It is therefore recommended that the Local Government Unit of Banaue, Ifugao should lay out or construct other activities and programs that would strengthen the participation of the youth like sponsoring them international forum or training. 3. The study revealed that discussing political issues with other people has a moderate involvement. Therefore, it is recommended that young people should encompass a healthy society where diversity is accepted, where the free minds are accorded the opportunity to develop. In such society, various points of view compete in the marketplace. Where criticism is not equated with treason. 4. The study has shown that participation in the democratic processes is important for personal development and proper representation. Having the right to participate should be seen as source of strength and opportunity for local communities. It is therefore recommended that the young people should have a positive perspective about politics and encourage other young people to involve themselves in activities that directly or indirectly affect their lives. 5. In terms of further research, it is recommended that the same study may be replicated in other municipalities of the province of Ifugao to validate findings of present research or to explore, evaluate other variables or factors that may affect the youth engagement in democratic processes. A comparative study can be carried out using a different and broader respondents and coverage by other researchers. And finally, a separate research on the voting behavior, civic engagement and enhancement of political knowledge in members of the private sector.
