Grounded in the theoretical premise that language-learning difficulties can be predicted through the structural contrasts of the native and target languages, the research systematically explores areas of phonology, morphology, lexicology, semantics, and syntax. Through this lens, the analysis identifies both convergences and divergences that significantly shape language transfer and interference, thereby influencing bilingual acquisition processes. The findings highlight the pedagogical relevance of CAH in fostering a nuanced understanding of learning challenges encountered by English and Spanish speakers. By elucidating patterns of facilitation and difficulty across linguistic domains, this work advances theoretical discourse in second language acquisition while offering practical implications for curriculum design and instructional methodologies. The study ultimately contributes to the broader field of applied linguistics by reaffirming the value of contrastive approaches in language teaching and by encouraging further empirical inquiry into cross-linguistic dynamics.1207202510.65010/seairj.v6i1.225http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/225http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/225/pdfhttp://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/225/pdfSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120720256110.65010/seairj.v6i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/15Trisha Mae M.Alalong, RNThis study determines the influence of spiritual well-being and capacity compassion on the caring behavior of nursing students. The descriptive-correlational design was utilized in this study. Data were gathered through survey questionnaire from 200 nursing students in selected private school. Mean was employed in analyzing the level of spiritual well-being, level of capacity compassion, and level of caring behavior. Pearson-product moment correlation was used to analyze the relationships that exist between the variables. Further, the multiple regression analysis was used to measure the influence of spiritual well-being and capacity compassion, and level of caring behavior of nursing students. The results disclosed that the levels of significant relationship between spiritual wellbeing and capacity of compassion. This implied that spiritual well-being of nursing students considering the four domain and capacity compassion considering the healthcare professionals can improve better, the caring behavior of nursing students considered two aspects further explains that spiritual wellbeing and capacity of compassion has significant relationship, therefore the hypothesis was rejected. Lastly, compassion is an important contributor to caring behavior, it is recommended that healthcare professionals need to further increase since they have got the high level, but still there is room for the highest level may the nursing students practically aware and adopt.1214202510.65010/seairj.v6i1.226http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/226http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/226/pdfhttp://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/226/pdfSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120720256110.65010/seairj.v6i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/15Helen H.Balaga, RNThis study employed a descriptive qualitative research design to explore the perceptions and barriers experienced by undergraduate nursing students in applying patient safety practices among hemodialysis patients in clinical settings in Davao City, Philippines. It aimed to understand how students perceive their role in ensuring patient safety, the challenges they encounter, and how these experiences influence their commitment to safety protocols. Data were collected through interviews and focus group discussions, then analyzed using thematic analysis. Three main themes emerged: Perceived Challenges, Opportunities for Growth, and Roles of Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). Sub-themes included patient resistance, emotional struggles, skill development, and adherence to protocols. Findings revealed that nursing students face emotional and procedural barriers but also gain professional growth and resilience. Participants emphasized the importance of preparation, guidance from mentors, and self-motivation in maintaining patient safety. They recognized that safety is a top priority and requires discipline, responsibility, and commitment. The study concludes that integrating supportive programs in clinical settings can strengthen the students’ foundation in safe nursing practices and better prepare them to address future challenges in healthcare delivery.1215202510.65010/seairj.v6i1.227http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/227http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/227/pdf_1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/227/pdf_1Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120720256110.65010/seairj.v6i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/15JesthonyFelipe, RNThis study determined the relationship between trust and nurse-patient communication on satisfaction of patients in hemodialysis centers. The descriptive-correlational design was utilized in this study. Data were gathered through survey questionnaire from 195patients in hemodialysis centers. Mean was employed in analyzing the trust, level of nurse-patient communication and level satisfaction of patients. Pearson-product moment correlation was used to analyze the relationships between variables. Furthermore, the multiple regression analysis was used to measure the influence of trust and nurse-patient communication on satisfaction of patients in hemodialysis centers. The results indicated that patients reported high levels of trust and satisfaction, and the level of nurse–patient communication was likewise very high. Moreover, the results showed a significant relationship between trust and nurse-patient communication on the satisfaction of patients in hemodialysis centers. Furthermore, trust and nurse-patient communication significantly predict patients satisfaction in hemodialysis centers.1215202510.65010/seairj.v6i1.228http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/228http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/228/pdfhttp://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/228/pdfSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120720256110.65010/seairj.v6i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/15Vimar C.Conmigo, PhDThis study explored the educational benefits of the Human Patient Simulator (HPS) in preparing nursing students for clinical practice. It focused on how the HPS enhances clinical competence and how Clinical Instructors support the development of professional skills to improve student readiness for real patient care. Nine participants including nursing students, Clinical Instructors, and Central Supply Room staff voluntarily participated. A descriptive phenomenological design was employed to capture their lived experiences. Data were analyzed using Amadeo Giorgi’s five-step method, which involved identifying significant statements, transforming them into meaning units, and synthesizing these into themes that describe the essence of participants’ experiences with HPS. The Human Patient Simulator provided a realistic and interactive learning environment that improved students’ clinical performance, confidence, and critical thinking. Participants highlighted its role in practicing patient assessment, decision-making, and care delivery. Challenges identified included limited medical supplies, outdated simulation facilities, and discrepancies between simulated scenarios and real patient interactions. Despite these limitations, the HPS was consistently valued for its contribution to skill development and clinical preparedness. The Human Patient Simulator is an effective educational tool that allows students to safely apply theoretical knowledge, develop essential skills, and refine clinical judgment prior to patient exposure. Ensuring adequate resources, upgrading simulation facilities, and integrating high fidelity simulation throughout the curriculum can further enhance learning outcomes. Implementing these measures supports the preparation of competent, confident, and practice ready nursing graduates.1215202510.65010/seairj.v6i1.229http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/229http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/229/pdfhttp://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/229/pdfSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120720256110.65010/seairj.v6i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/15Felix C.Chavez, Jr., MSci, PhDEL, PhDMPaul Rean Fred D.Quibo-Quibo, MAEdExecutive Summary This focused study interprets stakeholder data to articulate six core graduate attributes for Brokenshire College, Inc. and to provide operational definitions, descriptors, and rationale for each.

Guided by Astin’s Input–Environment–Outcome Model and Tinto’s Student Integration Theory, the research employed a quantitative descriptive–correlational design involving 50 stratified student respondents across year levels. Data were gathered using a validated survey measuring SAS serviceability across 17 functional areas, including guidance, library, ICT, registrar, scholarship, orientation, and student organization services. Academic performance was determined using students’ general weighted averages. Findings revealed that SAS programs were rated highly serviceable overall (M = 4.25), indicating efficient, accessible, and responsive delivery. Students likewise demonstrated very good academic performance (M = 86.39). Correlational analysis showed a moderate positive and statistically significant relationship between SAS serviceability and academic performance (r = .528, p = .000), suggesting that higher-quality student services contribute to improved academic outcomes. The study underscores the critical role of well-functioning SAS units in enhancing student success and recommends strengthening service delivery systems, monitoring mechanisms, and resource allocation to support academic achievement.1215202510.65010/seairj.v6i1.231http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/231http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/231/pdfhttp://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/231/pdfSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120720256110.65010/seairj.v6i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/15LouieUy, RNThis study determined the relationship between anxiety, self-efficacy and clinic performance of third year nursing students. The descriptive-correlational design was utilized in this study. Data was gathered using survey questionnaires. Mean and Standard deviation was used to measure the levels of anxiety, self-efficacy and clinic performance of third year nursing students. Pearson Product Moment Correlation was utilized to determine the relationships between anxiety, self-efficacy and clinic performance of third year nursing students. The results showed that the nursing students had a high level of anxiety, a moderate level of self-efficacy, and a very high level of clinical performance. Moreover, the findings showed that there was no significant link between anxiety and self-efficacy and the clinical performance of the nursing students. This indicates that other elements—such as quality of supervision, hands-on training, and institutional guidance—may have a greater impact on students’ clinical performance than their individual psychological factors.1216202510.65010/seairj.v6i1.232http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/232http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/232/pdfhttp://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/232/pdfSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120720256110.65010/seairj.v6i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/15Jennifer L.PidoAlecia P.Agonia, MBAJosefina M.Calipusan, MARose Marie P.Puyat, MBAPaul Rean Fred D.Quibo-QuiboGretchen B.Chavez, DBMThis study investigated the levels of ICT orientation, teaching efficacy, and adaptability among secondary education teachers in a private educational institution, as well as the relationships and predictive influence of ICT orientation and teaching efficacy on adaptability. Using a descriptive-correlational design, data were collected from 20 teachers through validated survey instruments and analyzed using mean, standard deviation, Pearson correlation, and multiple regression. Results revealed a very high level of ICT orientation (M = 4.19, SD = .321) and very high teaching efficacy (M = 4.30, SD = .571), while adaptability was high (M = 4.19, SD = .393). Teaching efficacy showed a significant moderate positive relationship with adaptability (r = .489, p < .05) and emerged as a significant predictor (β = .691, p < .05), explaining part of the variance in adaptability (R² = .369). In contrast, ICT orientation was not a significant predictor (β = –.413, p > .05). The findings highlight teaching efficacy as a key determinant of teacher adaptability in dynamic educational environments.1216202510.65010/seairj.v6i1.233http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/233http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/233/pdfhttp://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/233/pdfSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120720256110.65010/seairj.v6i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/15Ferdinand L.Dingal, MBAMercy P.Ojoylan, MAEdPaul Rean Fred D.Quibo-Quibo, MAEdGretchen B.Chavez, DBMRenzel M.SuarezThis study examined the levels of Quality of Work Life (QWL), Transformational Leadership, and School Culture, as well as their relationships and predictive influence on school culture in a private higher education institution in Davao City. Using a descriptive-correlational design, data were collected from 132 faculty members through validated survey instruments. Results revealed a high level of QWL (M = 4.12, SD = 0.476), with Knowledge Needs (M = 4.38) and Actualization Needs (M = 4.26) rated very high. Transformational leadership was likewise rated high (M = 4.16, SD = 0.517), reflecting strong idealized influence, inspirational motivation, and individualized consideration. In contrast, school culture was rated moderate (M = 2.78, SD = 0.510), with school well-being rated high but deviant behavior and subjective unsafety remaining present. Correlation and regression analyses showed no significant relationship or predictive influence of QWL and transformational leadership on school culture (R² = 0.0141). The findings highlight the complexity of school culture and suggest the need to explore additional influencing factors.1217202510.65010/seairj.v6i1.234http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/234http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/234/pdfhttp://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/234/pdfSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456031120267110.65010/seairj.v6i2http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/16Guadelynn S.DuldulaoThis study investigates the influence of organizational support on healthcare workers’ adherence to infection prevention and control (IPAC) practices in a secondary private hospital in Zamboanga City, Philippines. A descriptive correlational quantitative research design was used to determine the relationship between organizational support, infection prevention and control (IPAC) practices, and the demographic profiles of healthcare workers. Organizational support (education and training, collaboration and communication, surveillance, and resources) was the independent variable, and infection prevention and control practices (standard, contact, droplet, and airborne precautions) was the dependent variable, while the demographic profile (age, gender, length of service, job roles, and educational background) served as the moderating variable. Data were collected using a validated structured questionnaire. Statistical methods included descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation, stepwise multiple regression, independent t-test, and one-way ANOVA, which were used to analyze the data. Results showed that the majority of participants were aged 21–30 years and were female. Most held roles in the nursing service, had a bachelor’s degree, and had 6 months to 1 year of service. Education and training received the highest organizational support rating, followed by surveillance, collaboration and communication, and resources, with an overall rating categorized as “Very High”. Healthcare workers showed very high adherence to IPAC practices, particularly droplet and airborne precautions. Significant positive relationships were found between organizational support and IPAC practices, especially in resources, collaboration and communication, and surveillance. No significant differences in IPAC practices or organizational support were observed across demographic groups, suggesting uniform adherence to IPAC protocols and consistent organizational support. Among the support domains, only resources significantly predicted IPAC practices. The study concluded that organizational support – particularly resources, collaboration and communication, and surveillance – is crucial for achieving high IPAC adherence. Hospitals should prioritize enhancing these domains to improve patient safety and IPAC compliance.0311202610.65010/seairj.v6i2.235http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/235http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/235/pdfhttp://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/235/pdf
