Abstract

The rapid spread of recommender algorithms has made the competencies that govern how young people interpret and act in digital spaces a pressing concern. This study examined levels of algorithmic and digital literacy, as well as perceived digital self-efficacy, among Filipino emerging adults and tested whether these competencies predicted their social media engagement. Using a descriptive-correlational and predictive design, a researcher-adapted survey was administered through non-probability sampling to 77 eligible emerging adults from the City of Manila. Given the non-probability sampling and ordinal data, levels were summarized using the median (Mdn) and interquartile range; associations were tested with Spearman’s rank-order correlation; and predictors were identified through median (quantile) regression. Respondents showed a very high level of algorithmic literacy (Mdn = 4.50) and high levels of digital literacy (Mdn = 4.11), perceived digital self-efficacy (Mdn = 4.20), and social media engagement (Mdn = 3.83). All three competencies were significantly and positively associated with engagement: algorithmic literacy (ρ = .30, p = .003), digital literacy (ρ = .39), and perceived digital self-efficacy (ρ = .41), the latter two at p < .001. In the median regression, however, digital literacy was the only significant unique predictor of engagement (b = 0.47, p = .003); perceived digital self-efficacy and algorithmic literacy did not contribute uniquely once digital literacy was accounted for. Practical digital competence, rather than algorithm awareness or digital confidence alone, appears to most directly account for how emerging adults engage online, underscoring the value of competency-based digital citizenship programs.

Abstract

Teenage rebellion is a familiar lay term, yet how it is conceptualized and studied within Southeast Asian families—settings shaped by collectivist values, filial piety, and strong parental authority—remains unclear. This scoping review mapped the available evidence as a necessary first step toward more focused empirical work. Following the methodological framework of Arksey and O’Malley as refined by Levac and colleagues and reported in line with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews, two databases were searched for peer-reviewed, English-language studies published between January 2000 and January 2025 on adolescents aged 13 to 19 years living with their families in Southeast Asia. Records were screened against pre-specified eligibility criteria, and data were charted in response to five research questions. Ten studies from six countries (Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, the Philippines, Vietnam, and Indonesia) were included. Only two studies named rebellion directly; most used proxy constructs such as risk taking, conduct problems, aggression, children beyond control, and emotional and behavioral problems. Family conflict, weak parental monitoring or support, peer influence, and socioeconomic strain were the most consistently reported contributing factors. Manifestations centered on defiance, withdrawal, and conflict, whereas outcomes ranged from distress and risk behavior to, in supportive families, prosocial behavior and well-being. Designs were overwhelmingly cross-sectional. Southeast Asian research approaches adolescent rebellion obliquely, through related constructs and predominantly cross-sectional designs. The field would benefit from clearer conceptualization, qualitative work centering adolescents’ voices, longitudinal designs, culturally grounded frameworks, and more country-specific evidence.

Abstract

This study was geared towards finding out the effect of perceived anonymity, online comfort, and digital cue adaptation on the extent of digital extroversion of grade 12 students of a selected University in Metro Manila (n=114). The research used in this study was explanatory in a quantitative paradigm. The convenience sampling method was used in selecting the target population of this study. The data were collected through an online survey and analysed by descriptive statistics, Spearman’s rho and multiple linear regression. The participants used social media or integrated it in their lives “Very High” (Md = 5.00) as shown in descriptive statistics. They had a “High” average rating of digital cue adaptation (Md = 4.00), “Low” average rating of perceived anonymity (Md = 2.50), “Moderate” average rating of online comfort (Md = 3.25) and “Moderate” average rating of digital extroversion (Md = 3.25). A correlational analysis was used to see the correlations between the variables, and the analysis showed that the digital extroversion variable was positively correlated with the variable Online Comfort (ρ = .426, p < .001). The relationship between digital extroversion and digital cue adaptation was found to be “Weak Positive” (ρ = .176, p = .062). Online Comfort seemed to explain the 16.7% of variance in the unique manner (p < .001, β = 0.343). The results of this study extended the understanding of students' online behaviors with evidence that challenges the main tenet of the online disinhibition hypothesis.
