Descriptive survey research design utilizing a self-administered questionnaire was used in the study. A total of 578 respondents were surveyed using stratified cluster sampling. The statistical tool that were used in this study were the mean, standard deviation, and stepwise linear regression model. The results reveal that the mean responses regarding the provisions and conditions of the ecology of the school and school culture marked as moderately evident. Among the school culture variables , Instructional competence and the Attitudes of the students marked a significant findings, wherein the domains of Curriculum strongly influenced the Level 1 nursing students performance in terms of weighted performance average(WPA) but increased in the diversity of learning does not show that it could alleviate the Level 1 WPA; and the social regards for learning affects the Related learning Experience performance of the Level 3 nursing students while the domain in diversity of learners and community linkages does not show that it will improve student's performance. Attitudes of the students also influenced the learning outcomes in terms of Weighted Performance Average(WPA) of the Level 3 nursing students. Improvements in the working conditions increases the Weighted Performance Average (WPA) of the Level 2 nursing students while improvements in biology laboratory facilities does not show that it will increased student performance. School culture indicators marked the significant factor that strongly influenced the learning outcomes of the nursing students as compared to ecology of the school.0211201311610.65010/seairj.v1i1.3http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/3http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/3/pdf_2http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/3/pdf_2Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456021120131110.65010/seairj.v1i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/1Enrico BAboMany organizations struggle to cultivate the climate they need to succeed and retain their most highly effective employees. Brokenshire College has gone a long way from the progression of planning, implementation and institutionalizing Total Quality Management System. Hence, it is imperative to gather information on outcomes pertaining to the perception of organizational climate, job satisfaction, commitment and the performance of employees. This study was conducted to explore model of commitment and performance. Four-frame leadership styles job and satisfaction dimensions were used as explanatory variables for commitment while commitment was added to these explanatory variables in modeling performance. Multiple Linear Regression was used to model commitment and performance using interval data from sample size of 174 comprising middle administrators, nursing and non-nursing faculty, academic and support staff. Results show that commitment variance is a function of job satisfaction dimensions and symbolic leadership frames. Critical to the sense commitment are symbolic frame leadership, attitude and values and rewards and recognition. However, symbolic frame leadership contributed to the decline of commitment. Variance of employee performance could not be accounted to the explanatory variables used in the model.02112013173410.65010/seairj.v1i1.5http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/5http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/5/pdf_3http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/5/pdf_3Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456021120131110.65010/seairj.v1i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/1Christopher P.LelisThe study attempted to investigate the preservice elementary teachers’ self-efficacy, conceptual and procedural knowledge in fraction, and performance in solving fractional word problems. Likewise, it investigated the relationship of self-efficacy, conceptual and procedural knowledge towards performance in fractional word problems. It further investigated the variables that best predict performance and the best fitting structural model on performance. The study was conducted among the 307 Bachelor of Elementary Education fourth year students who were enrolled from the six tertiary institutions in Davao City during the second semester of school year 2011- 2012. The data were gathered through the use of the survey and test questionnaires. The findings indicated that the preservice elementary teachers had fair performance in solving fractional word problems. They had moderate level of self-efficacy towards fraction. They had weak conceptual knowledge on the five notions of fraction as part-whole, operator, measure, quotient and ratio. They also exhibited deficient procedural knowledge on operations of the three types of fractions namely: simple, mixed and complex. Self-efficacy, conceptual and procedural knowledge have significant and positive relationship with performance. Moreover, self-efficacy (mathematical task), procedural (complex and simple fractions), and conceptual knowledge (ratio, operator and measure) are predictors of performance. Five structural models were explored in the study. Model 1 includes the interrelationship among self-efficacy, conceptual and procedural knowledge and their causal relationships towards performance. Model 2 includes the direct effect of self-efficacy, conceptual and procedural knowledge towards performance. Model 3 includes the relationship between conceptual and procedural knowledge and their direct effects on performance. Model 4 includes the direct causal relationship of procedural knowledge on performance. Model 5 includes the direct causal relationship of conceptual knowledge towards performance. Among these five structural models, only model 5 have indices that consistently indicate a very good fit to the data, hence is identified as the best fitting structural model. This model indicates that the performance of preservice elementary teachers is best anchored on their strong evidence of conceptual knowledge as supported by the five subconstructs namely: part-whole, operator, measure, quotient and ratio.0211201315917210.65010/seairj.v1i1.1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/1Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456021120131110.65010/seairj.v1i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/1Henry C.EncaboElizabeth M.MalonzoThis study explores the dimensions of Filipino college students’ condom use self-efficacy beliefs using the Condom Use Self-Efficacy Scale (Bradford and Beck, 1991). Five-hundred eighty (N=580) college students participated in this study. Exploratory and confirmatory factor analysis was conducted explore and test the derived factor structures. The exploratory results revealed four dimensions: Partner’s Pleasure, Sexual Prejudices, Appropriation, and Assertiveness. This structure was later collapsed in favor of a simpler and better fitting 3-factor model. The results also indicate how Filipino college students’ condom use self-efficacy beliefs have shown similarities and differences with the models found in literature.0211201311913210.65010/seairj.v1i1.6http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/6http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/6/pdf_4http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/6/pdf_4Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456021120131110.65010/seairj.v1i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/1Felix, Jr. C.ChavezThis study explains the relationship of leadership behavior, job satisfaction, burnout, and organizational commitment. Quantitative research design was utilized in this study. The data were gathered from teachers among the randomly selected academic institutions in Region XI, Philippines. Moreover, sets of survey questionnaires were used as instruments to obtain information from the participants. Pearson-product moment correlation was used to find the significance of the relationship between the exogenous and endogenous variables. Stepwise multiple regression analysis was used to identify the variables that best predict organizational commitment. Structural Equation Modeling was used to analyze the causal relationship among the variables and the assessment of model fit. The findings of the study revealed that leadership behavior, job satisfaction, and burnout were highly correlated to organizational commitment (p021120138710010.65010/seairj.v1i1.8http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/8http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/8/pdf_5http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/8/pdf_5Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456021120131110.65010/seairj.v1i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/1Mercelee P.PerezThe main objective of this study was to assess the biodiversity of flora and fauna and the physico-chemical characteristics of the soil for forest rehabilitation. The point- line intercept method was used to determine the species richness, evenness, abundance, and diversity present in the study site. Soil samples were collected and subjected to laboratory analysis to determine the amount and presence of macro and micro nutrients, pH, bulk density, and other factors that may affect species diversity. The results revealed that there is a low diversity index of flora species in the site; laboratory analysis of the soil also revealed a general feature of low fertility this low soil fertility can account for low species diversity of the study site. However, rehabilitation of the forest can still be possible. Planting of indigenous tree species is recommended.0211201313314410.65010/seairj.v1i1.9http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/9http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/9/pdf_6http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/9/pdf_6Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456021120131110.65010/seairj.v1i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/1Aime T.GuarinoGlenda Mae D.VillaricoGlenn Mitchell O.LaudThis single group experimental study assessed the effectiveness of the Enrichment Program conducted in Brokenshire College, Davao City in SY 2005-2006. It compares the pretest and posttest mean scores in English, Mathematics and Science. The same scores were used as predictors of the grades in fourteen (14) professional nursing subjects. A total enumeration of 535 first year student nurses who scored low in the Nursing Series Test participated in this study. Results show that there is a significant increase from pretest to posttest scores.

The questionnaire (WHOQOL)-BRIEF), has been adapted but only questions related to the indicators of the study have been selected. Stepwise regression models were developed to examine the relationships between the socio-economic variables and the five domains of health-related QOL. Sixty four Clinical Instructors completed the study. Three of the five domains of the WHOQOL-BRIEF (Physical, Psychological and Environment domains) demonstrated a significant difference with age, civil status and salary. Quality of life scores were strongly correlated with salary received by the respondents as it significantly predict the four QOL domains; psychological, level of independence, social relations and environment The WHOQOL-BRIEF was successfully administered to the Clinical Instructors although one of its domains (physical) was not a determinant of salary. Quality of life scores were strongly correlated with salaries received by respondents, raising the issue of economic aspect for health related quality of life. The results have showed that the perceived relevance and relative importance of the determinants of QOL can greatly affect a healthy lifestyle and a holistic service to students under their care.02112013354410.65010/seairj.v1i1.11http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/11http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/11/pdf_8http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/11/pdf_8Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456021120131110.65010/seairj.v1i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/1Rodne T.BaslotFelix C.Chavez JrMaian J.CozoThis study aimed to determine the tree and herpetofauna profile in burned and unburned sites in Mt. Candalaga,Maragusan,Compostela Valley, Philippines. A total of 12 transect plots were established, 6 transect lines in each study sites. This is limited on the assessment on the abundance and diversity of herpetofauna and trees species within the burned and unburned sites in Mt. Candalaga. Included are the present physical factors such as depth of litters, temperature and canopy openness. Our results indicate the unburned sites in Mt. Candalaga had greater number of tree species than the burned sites. Shorea contorta Vid.(140), Schefflera elliptica (Blume) Harms (139) and Ficus minahassae Teijsm & de Vr. Mig.(123) are the most abundant tree species in the burned sites while in the unburned sites Lithocarpus llanosi has the most number of individuals (64) followed by Shorea contorta Vid (57), Myristica cinnanomea King (45), Shorea negrosensis Fowx (44), and Macaranga mappa Muell. Arg (39). The most similar transects are transects 2 and 4 (67.6 %) in the burned sites while in the unburned sites transects 5 and 4 (60 %). The results of the Shannon index (H’) indicate the highest tree diversity was discovered in Transect 1 (3.21) in the burned sites while Site 3 (3.90) has the greatest number of species in the unburnd sites). The mean rank of unburned site (8.83) i greater than the burned site (4.17) which indicates that the unburned sites have much cover compared to the burned site. However, there is no significant difference in the temperature (p-value = 0.48) and depth of litters (p-value =0.48) of the burned and unburned site with a p-value that is less than 0.05.

Behavior change remains the only means for primary prevention of HIV disease. Psychology should take a leading role in efforts to curtail the epidemic, but has not contributed to HIV prevention at a level proportionate to the urgency of the crisis. This study investigates the sexual -esteem and self-efficacy of Filipino MSM and its relation to sexual risks cognitions. Descriptive techniques and bivariate correlation were used for analyses. Convenience sampling was adapted of eighty (80) participants for the survey from venues frequented by different clans of MSM in the community. Sexually active MSM whose age ranged 13-35 with a mean of 20 years old, were administered measures of sexual - esteem and self- efficacy and were asked about their sexual behaviors. Respondents feel good about the way they express their own sexual needs and desires, (mean=3.53) with the capability to take care of their own sexual needs and desires (mean=3.58). They showed their partners that they are somebody special so sex is more exciting without a condom (mean=4.02) Using regression analysis, only self efficacy had a direct influence on engaging in UAI. (R2 = 0.330; F =18.934; df = 2; p = 0.000) and self efficacy correlated positively to sexual risk cognitions. Among the men who practice unsafe sex an emphasis on the pleasures of unprotected penetrative sex appears to override their risk awareness and them knowledge of condom efficacy.Implications for HIV prevention strategies given these findings are to develop multilevel counseling interventions to achieve a sense of self worth in the sexual domain. Translate one’s belief to deal effectively with the sexual aspect of risks cognitions into HPSB of protected anal intercourse for Filipino MSM.02112013597610.65010/seairj.v1i1.13http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/13http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/13/pdf_10http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/13/pdf_10Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456021120131110.65010/seairj.v1i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/1Jennifer M.ArbiolHannah S.BillionesThe study examines the role of personality and agencies of socialization in tardiness, absenteeism and academic performance. A total of 221 students served as respondents of the study. Results show that significant relationships were found among peers and family concerning punctuality and attendance in school of the respondents who were taking Hotel and Restaurant Management (HRM) course. Personality type particularly the introvert type is significantly correlated with tardiness among the respondents who were taking Nursing. No significant difference was found between academic performance and severity of tardiness among the respondents. Nevertheless, a significant difference was found between academic performance and severity of absences for the respondents who were taking Psychology, Business Administration, Education, Information Technology, and Theology.02112013778610.65010/seairj.v1i1.14http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/14http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/14/pdf_11http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/14/pdf_11Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456021120131110.65010/seairj.v1i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/1Raulyn C.FuentesThe primary objective of this study is to determine the relationship of demographic indicators, organizational commitment, and burnout in relation to turnover intention among the selected secondary school teachers in Davao City. This study made use of descriptive-correlation method using the survey questionnaires to gather the responses of 95 respondents. The correlation and stepwise regression analysis were employed in this study to model the turnover intention using the indicator variables. The results revealed that number of years, organizational commitment and burnout slightly correlate with turnover intention. The indicators to influence turnover intention in this study are affective commitment and client burnout, thus, administrators should consider these indicators in order to retain the best and experienced employees in the organization. It is recommended that school managers should institutionalize programs for employees who stayed long to serve the organization; strengthen the organizational commitment, and develop programs to lessen the burnout of the employees.0211201314515810.65010/seairj.v1i1.15http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/15http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/15/pdf_12http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/15/pdf_12Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120520141210.65010/seairj.v1i2http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/5Jezreel M.AbarcaThis study is a documentation of the indigenous “lumad” dances among the tribal communities in the Davao Region particularly the Ata – Manobo of Talaingod, Davao del Norte. The researcher immersed herself in the community to document the necessary data and information regarding these tribal dances. There are eight identified indigenous dances namely; Aabaka, Bangkakow, Inamungan, Kalasag, Natarin, Pulutawi, Pungko and Tagudturan. These dances describe various social activities and people’s way of living. It also reveals the incomparable characteristics of the group who are humble, passionate and cheerful being. The fruitful experience to the “subject” is the best result of retrieving and documenting the “lumad” dances before other cultural genres will disrupt these original forms.1201201311810.65010/seairj.v1i2.103http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/103http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/103/115http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/103/115Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120520141210.65010/seairj.v1i2http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/5RamonCrisostomoThe study aimed to understand the attitude of tourists, both foreign and local, towards the Island Garden City of Samal, Philippines. A predictive correlational design, in testing the proposed model depicting the relationship of island destination attributes and tourist attitude towards the destination was employed. A cross sectional approach, to data gathering was also employed and the survey, was the main method of gathering the needed data. The profile of the respondents and the attributes of the island destination were analyzed using descriptive statistics; while the hypotheses of the study were tested using the multiple linear regression on employing the stepwise method. The results of the study indicated that majority of the tourists, who visit the island are between 31-45 years old. The destination attributes, which significantly predict the attitude of Filipino tourists, are water and power, accessibility and cost to travel, prices, landscape, andtransportation facilities. Among the foreign tourists, the prices,climate and weather, and transportation facilities significantlypredict their attitude. However, when the moderating effects ofthe demographic variables were investigated, among foreigntourists, no significant results were found. Comparatively, the Filipino tourists showed a more positive overall attitude than the foreign tourists.12302013195710.65010/seairj.v1i2.28http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/28http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/28/pdf_13http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/28/pdf_1310.65010/seairj.v1i2.28.s13http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/downloadSuppFile/28/Modeling%20Destination%20Attributes%20and%20Tourist%20Attitudes%20towards%20the%20Island%20Garden%20City%20of%20SamalSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120520141210.65010/seairj.v1i2http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/5Fe D.ArcenasPsycho-spiritual interventions have been used by many therapists to address the needs of their client for psychological wellness and personal growth. Spirituality is acknowledged to be the integrating force that unites all other aspects of the human individual’s functioning (Burke et al., 2005). This study makes use of a quasi-experiment, of the time series design, involving a psycho-spiritual intervention to reduce the aggression among adolescents who self-harm. The nine subjects were selected from first year college students, using the Self-Harm Behavior Questionnaire or SHBQ (Gutierrez et al., 2001). The research focused on determining whether the psycho-spiritual intervention, a module entitled Peace by Peace, will make a significant difference in the levels of aggression of the subjects with respect to physical aggression (PHY), verbal aggression (VER), anger (ANG), hostility (HOS), indirect aggression (IND), and general aggression (AQ Total) of the Aggression Questionnaire or AQ (Buss & Warren, 2000). The format of the intervention is a four-day retreat, incorporating biblical Christianity concepts into discussions about anger, inner hurts, conflict resolution, and stress management.Results of the Wilcoxon Signed Ranks Test show that there is a significant difference between the Pretest and Posttest 1 levels of aggression of the subjects with respect to physical aggression, verbal aggression, hostility, and general aggression. However, no significant difference was found between the Pretest and Posttest 2 (delayed posttest, given one month after the retreat) levels of aggression of the subjects in all subscales.12302013587210.65010/seairj.v1i2.29http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/29http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/29/pdf_14http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/29/pdf_1410.65010/seairj.v1i2.29.s15http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/downloadSuppFile/29/A%20Psycho-Spiritual%20Intervention%20to%20Deal%20with%20Aggression%20of%20Adolescents%20Who%20Self-HarmSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120520141210.65010/seairj.v1i2http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/5Melchorita S.SalvadorThis study was conducted to find out the strategic management practices, competitive advantage and organizational performance of higher education institutions in Davao Region. The higher education institutions were from private schools and government owned universities and colleges with at least five hundred and above students. The respondents of the study were the top managers or senior officers such as Chief Executive Officers (CEO’s), Presidents, Vice-Presidents and junior officers such as Deans, Program Heads, Department Heads and Directors of higher education institutions for school year 2009-2010. The faculty and students were also included during the conduct of the study. The descriptive-correlational design was utilized in this study. The findings showed that the HEIs in Region XI manifested extensive strategic management practices. The level of organizational performance of the participating HEIs is high. The highest performance, relative to the other dimensions, is in terms of resource management while the lowest is in terms of governance and management. HEIs with high investments in their human, information and organizational capitals tend to generate high returns in terms of their organizational performance. On other hand, institutions that manifest good practices in terms strategy formulation and strategy implementation are likely to have higher organizational performance outcomes. And competitive advantage as part of strategic management showed a remarkable positive influence on organizational performance among HEIs.12302013738710.65010/seairj.v1i2.31http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/31http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/31/pdf_15http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/31/pdf_1510.65010/seairj.v1i2.31.s17http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/downloadSuppFile/31/The%20Influence%20of%20Strategic%20Management%20Practices%20and%20Competitive%20Advantage%20on%20The%20Organizational%20Performance%20Of%20Higher%20Education%20InstitutionsSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120520141210.65010/seairj.v1i2http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/5AnalynDominguezThe purpose of this study was to explore the fit model of turnover intentions of teachers in Region XI, Philippines. Correlational design was utilized in this study. The data were obtained from teachers of 15 private academic institutions in Region XI. Sets of survey questionnaires were used as instruments in gathering information from the respondents. A Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to analyze the interrelationship among the variables and the assessment of model fit. The findings revealed that among the exogenous variables, it is only the organizational support that significantly predicts the turnover intentions of teachers. Furthermore, a modified model was explored which passed all the goodness of fit indices criteria.123020138810310.65010/seairj.v1i2.32http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/32http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/32/pdf_16http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/32/pdf_1610.65010/seairj.v1i2.32.s18http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/downloadSuppFile/32/A%20Path%20Model%20of%20Faculty%20Turnover%20Intention%20in%20Region%20XI%20PhilippinesSoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120520141210.65010/seairj.v1i2http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/5Barnabas E.HerbertThe main objective of this study was to investigate the safety and efficacy of herbal ointment formulated with methanolic extract of Mikania cordata as Treatment for acute superficial injury. Ointment was prepared by fusion method using emulsifying ointment as base. The formulation was then tested for its physicochemical properties like loss of drying, pH, spreadability, extrudability, together with diffusion study, which gave a satisfactory result. The prepared ointment was also stable at 40C, 250C and 370C. Further, the formulation was evaluated for its anti-bacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus, Pseudomonas sp., Bacillus sp., by agar diffusion method by using Mupirocin (6%w/w) as a standard.

The Pearson Moment Product Correlation was applied to determine the relationship of professional development and trilogical capability and of educational administration and trilogical capability. The questionnaires were adopted and developed by the researcher based on certain standards as recommended by Accrediting bodies under the Federation of Accrediting Agencies of the Philippines (FAAP), the Commission on Higher Education (CHEd), and the National Competency-Based Teacher Standards (NCBTS). The data revealed a significant relationship between professional development and trilogical capability, as well as on educational administration and trilogical capability. Moreover, the educational administration had a higher influence compared to professional development on the school’s trilogical capability.1230201311912810.65010/seairj.v1i2.34http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/34http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/34/pdf_18http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/34/pdf_1810.65010/seairj.v1i2.34.s9http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/downloadSuppFile/34/Professional%20Development%20and%20Educational%20Administration%20of%20Colleges%20and%20Universities%20in%20the%20Davao%20Region%3A%20A%20Curricular%20Assessment%20of%20Trilogical%20CapabilitySoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456120520141210.65010/seairj.v1i2http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/5DeliaRosilloThis study assessed the needs of General Education Science Instructors in terms of physiological, social, and professional needs.

It analyzes the programs and categorized them as economic and livelihood, education, and environment. The author went on to examine the problems encountered by the selected GO and NGOs in the course of the implementation of these programs. The analysis on the programs and projects and the problems encountered were based on the responses provided by the staff members of these organizations and subsequently validated from the interview conducted with the children-client of the organizations. The information gathered on the programs and the problems encountered then served as basis in outlining potential programs and projects that the Rizal Memorial Colleges (RMC) Community Extension Services (CES) may pursue for street children.1230201313814710.65010/seairj.v1i2.36http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/36http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/36/pdf_20http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/36/pdf_2010.65010/seairj.v1i2.36.s11http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/downloadSuppFile/36/Critical%20Review%20of%20Selected%20Government%20and%20Non-%20Government%20Programs%20for%20Street%20Children%20in%20Davao%20CitySoutheast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456012220152110.65010/seairj.v2i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/ISSN%20NO%3A%202244-2456Elizabeth M.MalonzoThe cloak of secrecy that some men throw around their homosexuality does not suit their physical health once they contract the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). Being closeted is a deterrent for getting tested for HIV; thus, this study was conducted to determine how to motivate closet gays to be tested for HIV. Most closeted individuals hide in the shadows of lies and live in a contradiction of love, hate, and fear. Many closet homosexuals struggle (or have struggled) with an internal conflict: it’s like, deep down feeling that their affection for and attraction to the same sex just can’t be right. We conducted interview to seven identified closet gays from November to December 2013 with guide questions that identified key features and preferences of why they are closet gays and why they did not submit themselves for HIV testing. Participants reported, being unaware that HIV is asymptomatic, to which they did not consider themselves at risk. They are not willing to come out for fear of social stigma in their workplace and the severity of antihomosexual attitudes in their family and community. Fear, shame, doubt of confidentiality of the result and unaware of the risk of unsafe sexual practice – no condom use, were reasons why they don’t want to get tested for HIV. We identified 4 key themes with regards to preferences and features of an effective ways to motivate HIV testing among MSM closet gays: addressing fear, enhancing risk perception, avoiding stigmatizing, and perception on HIV testing in the center. Although its results must be cautiously considered, many of the conclusions are clear. The results of this study serve as the basis to design an effective campaign to motivate HIV testing among MSM closet gays in Davao City. These interventions should include motivations that reduce the fear of getting tested and increase the risk perception of participants. They should also market the venue to where the testing will be conducted, the professionals who will perform the tests, and the test itself.110120141910.65010/seairj.v2i1.152http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/152http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/152/162http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/152/162Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456012220152110.65010/seairj.v2i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/ISSN%20NO%3A%202244-2456John Vianne B.MurciaThe study used a panel data of macroeconomic factors to estimate the determinants of performance of selected Philippine stock market indices. Monthly time-series data of macroeconomic variables (Philippine peso-dollar exchange, gold reserves, consumer price index, wholesale price index, investments and OFW remittances) and stock market returns of the banking and financial sector (FIN), holdings sector (HDG) and Philippine Stock Composite Index (PSEi) for a period covering January 2006 to December 2012. The multiple regression model was used to determine the significant macroeconomic factors that predict the returns of each stock market. Results revealed that of the three regression models derived predicting stock market indices, peso-dollar exchange rates; gold reserves and consumer price index significantly determine most of the stock market returns. As an implication, the macroeconomic determinants that were found to explain the stock market returns may guide foreign and local investors as well as industries and companies in present and future investment decisions.11012014101810.65010/seairj.v2i1.153http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/153http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/153/163http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/153/163Southeast Asian Interdisciplinary Research JournalSEAIRJ2244-2456012220152110.65010/seairj.v2i1http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/issue/view/ISSN%20NO%3A%202244-2456Marissa G.Dela CruzThis paper brought together income and non-income factors, namely, household size, mall situational factors and consumer decision-making styles to generate predictive models for household spending in malls using hierarchical regression analysis.

Libraries use their websites to provide services to users without their physical presence. This study was conducted to determine the efficiency and satisfaction level on the functionalities and features of the Web-Based Services offered by the DDCL. The study made use of the descriptive – correlational method of research employing a self-made questionnaire which underwent validation by three experts and reliability test. There were 400 respondents of the study, specifically 25 faculty members and 375 students randomly selected inside the Library. The statistical tools used in the study were Weighted Mean, ANOVA and Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient. Findings revealed that the efficiency and satisfaction levels on the web-based resources at DDC Library are high; noted though that in terms of E-Books, students rated them as moderately efficient and satisfactory; the mean ratings on the efficiency and satisfaction level of web-based resources significantly vary among students; and the efficiency of Web OPAC, E-journals and E-Books databases is significantly related or affected by the satisfaction level.11012014546510.65010/seairj.v2i1.155http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/view/155http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/155/165http://link.brokenshire.edu.ph/bcjournal/index.php/sair/article/viewFile/155/165
