GRANT MARCO M. LABII BSBA Major in Business Operations Management

October 13, 2011 Date Submitted

_________________________________________________________________ A research proposal submitted to Dr. Regino Paular in partial fulfilment of the research requirements in Business Correspondence. First semester 2012-2013. De LA Salle University- Dasmariñas, Cavite

I.

Abstract: The main thrust of this study was to trace the whereabouts and developments of the student leaders of DLSU-D in implementing different environmental activities as a basis for program enrichment. The researcher traced the 100 student leaders from different organization of DLSU-D from 5th year college down to the first year college as to attain diversity and for the researcher not to be bias. The research design used was a combination of a two-way survey for the evaluation of the student leaders‟ proficiency, effectiveness, and efficiency for the environmental activities. It was found out that not all student leaders re both effective or efficient. And most student leaders from Dela Salle are more effective than efficient. Based on the aforementioned findings, the following conclusions were drawn that the evaluations of the student leaders at DLSU-D has the rate of 3.84 based from the guidelines of OSS in evaluating the student leaders.

II.

Introduction: ` Dela Salle University-Dasmarinas is a Catholic University occupying a 27-hectare

divided into two geographical areas which are the East Campus and the West Campus in response to the needs of the church and nation for human and Christian education, particularly at youth at risk. Guided by the Lasalian core values of faith, service, and communion who serve as responsible and professionally competent steward of God‟s creation (Celestino, 2011). In this regard, and to realize this vision Dela Salle offers various seven colleges with different nature-related courses such as BSBA major in Agri-Business Management, BSE major in Physical Science, BSE Biological Science, BS Environmental and Sanitary Engineering, and BS Biology with Concentration in Environmental Science to develop the students not only in academic excellence but also for the excellency in the environmental issues and programs being a hope of the patriots and the Cavite‟s premiere university. Additionally, promoting DLSU-D concupiscence to the students in building and training student leaders in regards to natural activities, the Lasalian Community Development Center (LCDC), Office of Student Services (OSS), and the Environmental Resource Management Center and Development Office (ERMCDO) are the offices who

31

evaluate, accredited, and responsible in terms of developing the Student leaders to their assessment and implemented environmental activities. With these views on the importance of the student leaders voluntary efforts and resources and the significant roles played by the OSS and ERMCDO in the university, the researcher would like to render a significant contribution to the University‟s student leaders in implementing environmental activities in an effective way for the future.

a. Objectives of the Study: This research proposal generally aims to evaluate different student leaders at DLSU-D in regards to their voluntary efforts and resources to the environment. 1. How they are efficient and effective in implementing different activities including the level of involvement and awareness for the sustainability of our environment, participants, and benificiaries. 2. It also aims to compare the commonality and the differences of all conducted environmental activities in the past, present and event in the future. 3. Determine the positive and the negative indicators of the said activities. b. Significance of the study: The significance of the study is to achieve its objective about the involvement of student leaders to reach out to the needs of nature into a simplest way. It will also help the student leaders in actively participating and for the implementation of the environmental activities to make it productively, effectively, and efficiently. In addition, this study will hope to serve as a baseline data for future researchers. Lastly, the study can offer an utmost help and great advantage to the three most important organizations in business today which are the corporations, partnerships, and sole-proprietorship in performing corporate social responsibility and outreach activity in an efficient way but effective. c. Statement of the Problem: The study looks into the evaluation of the DLSU-D student leaders implementing environmental activities for the year 2012. Specifically, the study sought to answer the following questions: 1. How many organizations at DLSU-D implementing environmental activities. 2. What would be the commonality and differences of every student leaders in implementing environmental activities?
32

3. How efficient are the DLSU-D student leaders implementing environmental activities? 4. Are the student leaders of DLSU-D is effective in implementing environmental activities? 5. What would be the impact of the DLSU-D student leaders to the environment and to the society at large? d. Scope and Limitations: The coverage of the study is all about the student leaders at DLSU-D implementing environmental activities which will indicate their commonality and differences in regards to their strategies. Giving a two-way interview (direct and indirect), using the systematic random sampling will minimize the given time effectively and productively starting from the first week of September up to the last week of October in the year 2012. e. Definition of Terms Youth: According to Atty. Castrodes (2003), the commissioner of the National Youth commission, stated that youth are from 15-30 years old. According to him, he said that youth are divided into four subgroups 1. In-School Youth (ISY); 2. Out-of-School Youth (OSY); 3. Working Youth (WY), 4. Youth with special needs (YSN). He added that there are four major areas that the youth is confronting of or in concern most and one of this is the area of the environment (Atty. Castrodes, 2003). Leaders: Former US president Harry S. Truman stated that a leader is a man who has the ability to get other people to do what they don't want to do, and like it Evaluation: The term refers to the process of assessing and appraising the status of a person, thing, place, or event. III. Review of Related Literature: a.1. Conceptual Literature:

In 1995, youth be defined as those who are 50-30 years old comprises 30.1 percent of the total population and nearly half of the country‟s labor force percent of the total population and nearly half of the country‟s labor force (NYC, 2000)

According to Atty. Castrodes (2003), the commissioner of the National Youth commission, stated that youth are from 15-30 years old. According to him, he said that youth are divided into four subgroups 1. In-School Youth (ISY); 2. Out-ofSchool Youth (OSY); 3. Working Youth (WY), 4. Youth with special needs (YSN). He added that there are four major areas that the youth is confronting of or in concern most and one of this is the area of the environment. In a separate study from a gathered documents and researches, Different organizations and institutions use different definitions for the term “youth”. Republic Act 8044, for instance, defines “youth” as persons aged 15 to 30 years old. Presidential Decree 603, on the other hand, defined “youth” as persons below 21 years old. International organizations likewise have different definitions of the term “youth”. The World Health Organization and some government agencies define the youth to be those between 15 to 24 years old; while the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) and the United Nations Children‟s Fund (UNICEF), define “children” as young person‟s falling below 18 years old

Youth has an important role in national development (Buban, 2007). All youth should be able to participate. Involving youth in the planning, implementation, monitoring and evaluating of youth related policies, programs and services makes them more relevant, efficient and effective for their target group, nation- building and nature-conservation (MTYDP, 2005-2010). b.2. Research Literature One of the important ways of evaluating the effectiveness of environmental activities of the youth at DLSU-D is to keep track of the youth leaders on every organizations or groups inside the University (Ilas, 2011). It is necessary to found out whether they are employed or a scholarship grantee whether it is in internal or external sponsorship. What these student leaders are doing and in what ways the school has helped them in their present environmental activities in determining whether or not the student leaders are achieving its goal.

34

Various studies have been undertaken both here and abroad about students‟ involvement in regards to environmental activities. Significant related studies are cited and reviewed for their relevance to the study (Montivergen, 2003) b.2.1. Foreign Study A study done by Emmons (1997) that he defined positive environmental action as a deliberate strategy that involves decisions, planning, implementation and reflection in order to achieve a specific positive environmental outcome through the youth leaders active participation. In a separate study conducted by Skogen (1999) stated that the youth should avoid him/herself from the simplistic interpretation in regards to the environmental issue for it can be the cause of undimensional phenomenon ranging from strong to weak or the motivation may become weak. Corollary to the abovementioned study, Smith(2007) make some research about some motivational actions in part of the youth leaders that youth must actively participating in some environmental strategy, and they should promote the importance of avoiding simplistic interpretations of environmental concern. With this the youth ignition may be increased. b.2.2. Local Study Recuenco (2010) points out that environmental education is an essential component in the youth„s total enlightenment and that educating them early on Environmental matters will ensure that they can be good stewards of nature. The results of the study showed that Filipino environmentalists generally consider their childhood experiences as the developmental foundation for their environmental sensitivity such as life experience in a natural environment, education, people, membership in organizations, negative experiences, and media. They also mentioned that later formative experiences beyond their childhood years were significant. To ensure that environmental education will achieve its ultimate goal of educating the youth, the respondents stressed the value of personal and professional development of teachers along the discipline.

35

b.3.Synthesis: The preceding reviews provided the researcher with valuable insights that guided the conduct of the present study. There had been follow-up studies on the college level and even to the administration of DLSU-D, however none of them dealt with the student leaders of DLSU-D that were involved in the environmental issues or activities. Since the subject matter involved is an entirely different milieu, the researcher encountered the dearth on the resources. Nevertheless, some of the valuable information found were studies done many years ago as stated above. In response to the said study, DLSU-D believes in the holistic development moulding the students to become a productive leaders and competent stewards of God‟s creation. With innovative classes and lecture strengthens academic excellence, the Office of student services ( OSS ) supervises the extra-curricular activities and various student development programs such as the activities in environment whether it is in in-campus or off-campus activities as part of a well-balanced training. IV. Methodology: This Chapter presents the methodology of this study subdivided into the following topic headings: (A) research design, (B) population and sample, (C) data gathering instrument, (D) validation of the questionnaire, and data gathering procedure, and (F) statistical treatment of data. a. Research Design: The subjective and objective research design was utilized to analyze the whereabouts and developments of the Student Leaders who were involved in environmental activities of Dela Salle University-Dasmarinas (DLSU-D) of the curriculum years 2008 up to the present as a basis of program enrichment through the different data and documentations of an organization implemented by the student leaders of DLSU-D that can be used for the commonality and the difference between the student leaders at different organizations. b. Population and sample The researcher used the systematic random sampling in order fairly generalize the results back to the population from which the sample was chosen. The advantage of using sampling is to reduce the cost, greater speed, greater scope, and it is greater accuracy in which it is based upon the researcher‟s objective (Reyes, 2008).

36

Since there are 80 groups inside the sample space shown below at the appendix C. The researcher took at least 20 organizations randomly selected at first following the interval or the from the sample space using the formula of = N/n. the 20 events taken from the sample space in accordance to the systematic random sampling are  = {SERVE, JPMAP, OAS, Vicissitude, CBASC, CIHMSC, BIOPC, ISA, FDC, PLS, Heraldo Filipino, LS Verde, DMS, HS, USC, COESC, COSA, VOX, YFC, CPM} c. Data Gathering Procedure: The research sought the permission of the Dean in the Office of Student Services (OSS), Mr. Paulino H. Gatpandan, to administer the questionnaire to the student leaders from different organizations/ groups including the publications and the councils. Another letter of permission was given to the Assistant to the Director, Mrs Rosario N. Pareja at ERMCDO. After being granted to conduct the study, the researcher distributed the questionnaires, retrieved and polish them after giving enough time to the student leaders to answer the questionnaires. Direct or faceto-face interview was conducted to support the study. Furthermore, documentary analysis was also utilize to analyze the variables in the study. The researcher looked into the record of student leaders and the total number of groups from 5th year dawn to the first year college inside the university. d. Statistical Treatment of Data To evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of the student leaders involved in the different environmental activities through the gathered data, the researcher used the following statistical instruments: 1. Frequency Distribution (Table) (Montevergin, 2003), 2. Percentage ( Graph ) (Selznick, 1997), V. Results and Discussion The researcher divided the results and discussion into three parts. 1. An instrument used for the past involvement of the student leaders. 2. An instrument used to measure their efficiency and effectiveness. 3. An over-all analysis and interpretation of gathered data. The following findings resulted from the study:

1. The researcher found out that almost 60% of the total population of the student leaders in a primary experienced on environmental activities during their first year college and only few student leaders who primary experienced an environmental
37

activities on their upper year. On the other hand, the researchers found out that on their first year in college almost 36% student leaders implement their own environmental activities. Additionally, according to the survey, most students implemented their first environmental activities in a type of terrestrial and most common is the tree planting. Fortunately on their first implemented projects, most student leaders got the rank of 4, equivalent to a very good or outstanding performance. Good enough for the first time. 2. The researcher found out that the students of DLSU-D are more effective than efficient in terms of budgeting money and the use of resources. In addition, the shortest hour rendered by the student organization was 2 hours and below while the highest hour is just only 6 hours and below. VI. Conclusion: Based on the aforementioned findings, the following conclusions were drawn. 1. The researcher at DLSU-D did not reach the highest standard but having an outstanding and a very good performance in accordance to the guidelines of the OSS, 2. Student leaders have a greater effectiveness than efficiency, 3. Most student leaders prefer to terrestrial activities. Nevertheless some of the student leaders were scholars in internal, external and even both so they even learned how to balance their time in academic an in their organizations or groups that makes DLSU-D to be proud of through the students involvement and voluntary efforts to the environment 4. The remarkable growth in the number of student activity and development in terms of environmental activity attributed to the innovations, creativity, enrichment, and strengthening of the programs spearheaded by the past and presents environmental activities proficiency. 5. Lastly, in terms of their environmental programs, the student leaders have maintained, preserved and sustained their high quality and standards. Furthermore, they could still be improved to reach the highest level, which is excellent.

38

VII.

Recommendation: In the light of the conclusions arrived at, the following recommendations are suggested: a. That the result of the study be disseminated to the ERMCDO the office who is in charge for maintaining a dark green campus for program enrichment b. Dissemination to all environmental advocators for program development and implementation c. Further studies among all the students of DLSU-D to discover new environmental activities from them d. Dissemination to researchers for future researches e. Extension studies could be conducted also to involve other demographic variables as well as other factors in relation with the environment.

1. Title: The Edge to the Realm: The Modern application of Emotional and Cognitive Intertwined- Modification 2. Abstract: The main thrust of this study was to determine the whereabouts and development of cognition and emotion on every people nowadays according to their heterogeneity (e.g. male, female, age gap) as a basis for psychological enrichment. The researcher traced the 250 people from 16 – 47 years of age, male and female, and from different profession or course groups as to attain diversity and for the researcher not to be bias. The research design used was indirect interview in a form of conducting a survey and it was found out that 18.5% said that emotion matter most than cognition while the remaining 81.5% said that cognition matter most than emotion. In a process that cognition comes first before emotion, more than a half of the population said that they think (cognition) first before they act (emotion ). Based on the aforementioned findings, the following conclusions were drawn 1. The cognition-emotion relationship is coalition or intertwined but the consistency is still fluctuating or modified based upon the ages of people. 2. Peoples cognitive ability comes first before emotion. 3. Cognition matters most than emotion. 3. Introduction: Almost all the study regarding about the principles and theories are made during archaic years and only few studies were made during this past few years. Notwithstanding about the principles and theories, the researcher want to make a study about the modern application of different principles and study regarding the Cognitiveemotional consistency, the coalition of cognitive-emotional relationship, and lastly the cognitive-emotional modification or changes as time goes forth since the days are now in the modern generation if all the study are still applicable, since the researcher is in the edge to the realm. 3.1. Significance of the study: The significance of the study is to achieve its objective about the modification of cognitive process over emotion and vice versa. In addition, this study will hope to

57

serve as a baseline data for future researchers. Lastly, the study can offer an utmost help and great advantage to some people who are still puzzled, and how to cope up in regards to their emotional and cognitive fluctuation. 3.2. Review of Related Literature 3.2.1. Conceptual Literature Emotions are feelings that generally have both Physiological and cognitive elements and that influence behavior (Feldman, 2008). In addition, unlike of moods, Zulueta (2008) stated that emotions are short-lived feelings that vary in quality and intensity. He added that despite emotions are just only temporary and short-lived feelings, he stated that emotion give meaning to our lives, without emotions, probably life would be dull and monotonous. Many psychologists define emotion in different ways, but all of them agreed that most definitions involve the following concepts: 1. A stimulus situation that provokes the reaction; 2. An experience characterized by a strong degree of feeling and marked by motor expression, 3. A bodily state of physiological arousal produced by the autonomic nervous system and endocrine glands; and lastly, 4. A related behavior that consequently accompanies behavior. On the other hand, the term cognition refers to all processes by which the sensory input is transformed, reduced, elaborated, stored, recovered, and used. It is concerned with these processes even when they operate in the absence of relevant stimulation, as in images and hallucinations. Given such a sweeping definition, it is apparent that cognition is involved in everything a human being might possibly do; that every psychological phenomenon is a cognitive phenomenon. (Neisser, 1967) In addition, Williamson (2006) defined cognition as something like the process of acquiring, retaining and applying knowledge. To a first approximation, therefore, cognitive science is the science of knowing Cherry (2012) added that cognition is a term referring to the mental processes involved in gaining knowledge and comprehension, including thinking, knowing, remembering, judging and problem-solving. These are

58

higher-level functions of the brain and encompass language, imagination, perception and planning. Corollary to the abovementioned definition, cognition is the mental faculty or process of acquiring knowledge by the use of reasoning, intuition, or perception. 3.2.2. Research Literature: a. Ancient Study: The relationship between cognition and emotion has fascinated Western philosophers for centuries. It is not surprising that much of that attraction has permeated brain science in general. Indeed, Broca (1824–1880) has shaped human understanding in regards to brain function through the concept of functional localization. In attempting to localize affect in the brain, an appealing approach has been to separate the „emotional brain‟ from the „cognitive brain‟. (Pesoa, 2008) In a separate study conducted by LeDoux (1995) stated that If cognition is broadly to include sensory information processing, as well as the processing that occurs in complex association areas of cortex in the frontal lobes or hippocampus, then emotional processing by the amygdala is highly dependent on cognitive processing. He added that If cognitive processing is narrowly to include only the higher mental functions, then emotion is not necessarily dependent on prior cognitive processing. Thus, it is clearly defined that if the emotional processing can be highly dependent or not necessarily. It is just only depending on the cognition whether it is broad or narrow. In contrary to the abovementioned study, Phelps (2006) define that traditional approaches to the study of cognition emphasize an information-processing view that has generally excluded emotion. It simply means that cognition and emotion are not intertwined with each other because they are separated or divided. b. Modern Study: The recent emergence of cognitive neuroscience as an inspiration for understanding human cognition has highlighted its interaction with emotion. This review explores insights into the relations between emotion and cognition that have resulted from studies of the human amygdala. Investigations into the neural

59

systems underlying human behavior demonstrate that the mechanisms of emotion and cognition are intertwined from early perception to reasoning. These findings suggest that the classic division between the study of emotion and cognition may be unrealistic and that an understanding of human cognition requires the consideration of emotion. (Phelps, 2006) Emotional experiences lead one to wonder how feelings are processed and influenced by thoughts, but more recently investigators have begun to focus on how emotion influences cognition. A study done by Krohne (2002), he explains the cognitive mechanisms of emotion regulation. Based on his findings, about the two groups of hypotheses, it was found out that negative emotion leads to negative cognitions while having a positive emotion leads to positive cognitions. In a separate study, strong evidence also links emotions to the body. The current view of brain organization supports the notion that there is a considerable degree of functional specialization and that many regions can be conceptualized as either 'affective' or 'cognitive'. Popular examples are the amygdala in the domain of emotion and the lateral prefrontal cortex in the case of cognition. This prevalent view is problematic for a number of reasons. Here, the researcher will argue that complex cognitive-emotional behaviors have their basis in dynamic coalitions of networks of brain areas, none of which should be conceptualized as specifically emotions or cognitive. (Pesoa, 2008) Corollary to that statement, Phineas Gage on his early reports taken from the research of Pesoa (2008), he described that if the specific parts of the brain damages automatically it will caused changes in cognitive and emotional behaviours (Pesoa, 2008). Furthermore, De Houwer and Herman tackle the complex relationship between cognition and emotion. In addition, they also review the current evidence, processes, and interactions between cognition-emotion relationships. The discussion of emotional-regulation strategies offers interesting discussions of need, attention, knowledge, and body-oriented approaches to modulating emotions. Also illuminating is the discussion of how emotion interacts with

60

interpretation, judgment, decision making, and reasoning, the conclusion is that affective variables influence cognitive processes. (Valente, 2010)

To sum up, studies in cognitive science suggest that emotion and cognition are subserved by different. Understanding the time-varying relationship of emotion and cognition is a challenging goal with important implications for neuroscience. Emotion and cognition are essential to how we, as humans, respond to changes in our environment (Afraimovich, 2011) because both of them are interconnected with each other. c. Synthesis: The modification or changes among all the study can be analyze based on the year it was conducted. In regards to the ancient studies, cognition and emotion is not intertwine or divided but as times goes by cognition-emotion relationship becomes interrelated with each other. On the other hand, the modern study simply tells that the cognition-emotion stability existed. There is a consistency that once the cognitive affected, emotion is affected and vise-versa. So cognition and emotion are intertwined or being coalition with one another. 3.3. Objectives: This research generally aims to analyze the application of all the studies given above to people in Dasmarinas, Cavite. 1. Determine their initial respond (what matter most cognition or emotion?). 2. Evaluating them based on their heterogeneity [age {1647}, sex {male and female} , 3. Analysing the emotion-cognition stability/ consistency and vise-versa based upon the results in frequency of ages. (Emotion-cognition modification/changes). 4. Finding & Analysis: The researcher divided the results and discussion into two parts. 1. By means of Frequency Distribution Table (F.D.T.), an instrument used to determine the fluctuating process of cognition and emotion 2. By means of Graphical Distribution (e.g. chart, bar and line) , an instrument used to analyze the content from the inputs in FDT of becoming its output.

The following findings resulted from the study: 1. Most people in younger ages tend to be more aggressive and more sensitive but as the ages becomes older, people tend to be more mature and mindful about their action. 2. The graph tend to be fluctuating as the result that cognition-emotion modification or changes exist. As the researcher look unto the graph, the age with an extreme value falls unto the class or the ages of 40-42. As the theory of life started at 40‟s maybe it‟s quite true but not all the time. It just only happen with the researcher‟s survey 3. As the survey tells that in an average score of 20.5% females are tend to be more emotional than male (16.7%). Regardless of the table, female express their feelings swiftly by means of shouting, yelling, and so on and so forth. On the other hand males tend to be more mindful having an average grade of 84.2% than female only have 79.5%. Regardless of the table male are more serious than of being too emotional. 4. As the survey tells that in an average score of 20.5% females are tend to be more emotional than male (16.7%). Regardless of the table, female express their feelings swiftly by means of shouting, yelling, and so on and so forth. On the other hand males tend to be more mindful having an average grade of 84.2% than female only have 79.5%. Regardless of the table male are more serious than of being too emotional. Based on the aforementioned findings, a total of 18.5% said that emotion matter most than cognition while the remaining 81.5% said that cognition matter most than emotion in a process that cognition comes first before emotion 5. Conclusion: Based on the aforementioned findings, the following conclusions were drawn: 1. The cognition-emotion relationship is coalition or intertwined with each other. 2. In regards to cognitive-emotion modification, the consistency is still fluctuating or modified based upon the ages of people. 3. Peoples cognitive ability comes first before emotion. 4. Cognition matters most than emotion. 5. Males are more cognizant than females 6. Females are more expressive than males

APPENDIX: An Instrument Used in the Study a. Frequency Distribution Table (FDT) a. 1. Quantitative FDT The following are the ages (in years) of all the respondents used in a study of cognition-emotion modification (changes) relationship.

Table: Frequency Distribution of Age (in Years) of 184 people

Using a formula of the following:

64

Range= Highest value – lowest value K=N

=47 – 16 = 31 = 150 = 12

c‟ = Range/ k (must be an odd number ) = ( 31/12 ) = 2.58  3 Relative Frequency =[ ( F/N ) x 100] Mean Formula: ̅
∑

= n% or = n%

To determine when will the point be classified (emotion matters most or cognition matter most). The researcher used the following classification: Cognition Question 1. I think before I act Emotion Question 2. My emotions matters than cognition/thinking Question 5.I think of the consequences of my actions /behavior Question 6c. I try to control it as much as I can Question 6d. I think of its consequences Question 3. I express my feelings right away. Question 4: Whenever I am angry, I shout hurt people physically Question 6a.Hit someone physically Question 6b. shout/yell After getting the mean (average) point of both sides, getting the modal (most frequently point), the point will be put on either Cognition matter most or Emotion matter most. Interpretation: Most people in younger ages tend to be more aggressive and more sensitive but as the ages becomes older, people tend to be more mature and mindful about their action. a.
