Abstract

This study aimed to assess the occupational stress and coping mechanisms among senior uniformed personnel in the Philippine National Police. This study employed the use of descriptive correlational research design utilizing survey methodology. Research locale was limited to Laguna. The respondents were the 100 senior uniformed personnel in the locale of the study and were selected using random sampling technique. The research instrument in this study was a survey questionnaire adopted from Juczyński & Ogińska-Bulik (2022). Data were analyzed using percentage, mean, rank order and Pearson-r. The study found that those who used adaptive coping strategies had lower levels of stress than those who used maladaptive strategies. The results also showed that those who used adaptive strategies had better mental health outcomes. Individuals who employed adaptive coping strategies experienced lower levels of stress compared to those who used maladaptive strategies. This highlights the importance of cultivating effective coping mechanisms to mitigate stress. The study indicates that the choice of coping strategies has a notable impact on mental health outcomes. Those who employed adaptive strategies reported better mental health, suggesting that the way individuals cope with stressors can have lasting effects on their overall psychological well-being. The findings support the promotion of adaptive coping mechanisms to enhance stress resilience. This could involve educational programs, workshops, or interventions aimed at equipping individuals with effective strategies to cope with stressors in healthier ways.

Abstract

This study aimed to determine police trainees' satisfaction with the Public Safety Basic Recruit Course of the NPTI, and the significant difference in satisfaction between Criminology and non-criminology graduate police trainees. The study applied descriptive correlational research design and interviews using a self-made survey questionnaire for 218 respondents and prepared guided interview questions for five key informants from the graduating police trainees at NCRTC. The data obtained were collated, sorted, summarized, and subjected to statistical treatment methods. The result of the study revealed that police trainees were very satisfied with the Public Safety Basic Recruit Course. They greatly appreciated the quality of training program. However, facilities, equipment, and supplies needed attention and improvement. Interviews disclosed that despite high satisfaction, police trainees faced various challenges that dissatisfied them. These includes frequent shortages of water supplies, overcrowding of dormitories and classrooms, and insufficient faculty members. However, despite these, they remained optimistic that the training management can address it. Additionally, the study found that there was no significant difference in satisfaction between Criminology and non-criminology graduate police trainees. This suggests that both groups had similar levels of satisfaction, and highly appreciative with the training program. To enhance further the satisfaction of police trainees, the NPTI should focus on improving facilities, equipment, and supplies, and address the specific concerns raised by the trainees. Furthermore, an action plan should be developed, outlining realistic, measurable, and time-bound plans, programs, and activities to address the concerns of police trainees.

Abstract

This study examined the factors that led to road crash incidents in Metro Manila, focusing on human behavior, public awareness and attitudes, road infrastructure and Mdesign, technological interventions, and the implementation of enforcement measures. The findings indicated that human error was the primary cause of road crashes, with speeding, driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs, distracted driving, failure to adhere to traffic rules, and aggressive driving behaviors identified as significant factors. We also found that road infrastructure and design, public awareness and attitudes, technological interventions, and enforcement measures significantly contribute to road crash incidents. The study further explored the challenges encountered by the Philippine National Police Highway Patrol Group in reducing road crash incidents. The study identified significant challenges in human behavior, public awareness, road infrastructure and design, technological interventions, and enforcement measures and found strong positive relationships between these factors and road crash incidents. We deemed it crucial to address these challenges to impact road safety and reduce accidents significantly. The research highlighted the importance of addressing human behavior, public awareness, road infrastructure and design, technological interventions, and enforcement measures to enhance road safety and reduce road crash incidents in Metro Manila. By focusing on these factors and addressing the identified challenges, the PNP Highway Patrol Group could implement enhanced interventions and promote a safer transportation environment for all road users.

Abstract

This study aimed to investigate the impact of training on police misconduct in Pampanga Police Provincial Office. It determined the following questions: (a) Impact training practices of the police officers in Pampanga Police Provincial Office in terms of the following: ethical training programs; development initiatives, recruitment strategies, and accountability measures; (b) assessment of the respondents as to police misconduct in corruption and bribery, political interference, and lack of resources; drug war policies; impunity; lack of oversight and accountability; bias and discrimination; media influence; and economic conditions; and significant relationship between the impact of training practices and assessment of the respondents as to police misconduct among police officers in Pampanga Police Provincial Office. The descriptive correlation method was employed with 775 select respondents. The results are as follows:(a) the impact of training practices among the police officers in Pampanga Police Provincial Office in terms of ethical training programs, leadership development initiatives, recruitment strategies, and accountability measures highly impactful; (b) The respondents agreed that as to police misconduct that it was highly impactful in terms of corruption and bribery. The remaining indicators have obtained an impactful interpretation. These are as follows: political interference, lack of resources, drug policies, impunity, lack of oversight and accountability, bias and discrimination, media influence, and economic conditions; (c) The impact of ethical training programs is significantly positively correlated with each measured facet of police misconduct. These suggest adequate, ethical training programs could reduce these issues within the law enforcement community. This demonstrates how vital comprehensive ethical training is for tackling all facets of police wrongdoing and enhancing the department's professionalism; (d) Every measured aspect of police misconduct exhibited a robust positive link with the effectiveness of Leadership Development Initiatives. The correlation coefficients for lack of oversight and accountability range from 0.448 (moderate positive correlation) to 0.751 (strongly positive correlation), depending on the issue. The statistical significance of the correlations is confirmed, and the null hypothesis (Ho) is rejected because the p-values for all dimensions are 0.000. This shows that respondents tend to give more positive ratings of various aspects of police misconduct as the impact of Leadership Development Initiatives on police officers improves; and (e). The respondents' assessments of police misconduct and the effects of police training practices established the statistical significance of these correlations, and the correlation coefficients showed the direction and intensity of the relationship between the two variables. Every aspect of police misconduct shows a strong positive link with the effect of recruitment strategies, which aligns with earlier research.

Abstract

his study aimed to assess the extent of implementation of Disaster Risk Reduction Management (DRRM) and the extent of stakeholder participation in times of disaster towards the development of a comprehensive community-based Disaster Risk Reduction Management (DRRM) strategic manual. This study employed a descriptive comparative research design utilizing survey methodology. The study was conducted in the Third District of the Province of Negros Oriental. The respondents were LGU officials, PNP, DRRM Coordinators, SK officials, barangay officials, and local residents and were selected using a stratified random sampling technique. The major tool used in this study is a survey questionnaire adopted from the Provincial Disaster Risk Reduction Plan manual. Data were analysed using weighted mean and one-way analysis of Variance (ANOVA). The study found that people are more proactive in preventing disasters than recovering from them. The poor performance of respondents in Disaster Rehabilitation and Recovery (DRRM) was attributed to a lack of expertise and resources. The DRRM program's effectiveness still needs to be explored; hence, there is an urgent need for further study and evaluation to measure its impact. Communities often lack the means and capacity to respond effectively, emphasizing the need for empowering and involving local populations in disaster management. Insufficient resources, capacity, and collaboration between stakeholders hinder the implementation of disaster management programs, resulting in inadequate results and a loss of confidence in the government's ability to address disaster management needs. An internal disaster response plan should be in place in every barangay and activated during and immediately after disasters. When chaos and devastation from a disaster demand capability beyond those that barangays can afford, Local Government Units (LGUs) and the National Government are supposed to respond. Designated Barangay Disaster Response Teams and volunteers may also help.

Abstract

The thrust of the PNP is the continuing development and well-being of women and children investigators. To this end, a training needs assessment was conducted. This assessment is considered hybrid because it includes self-care, particularly the psychosocial and mental health needs of the WCPD investigators in their training. This study used a quantitative and descriptive approach to gather and analyze data. The questionnaire, which consisted of a 4-point scale, was used to assess the training needs of the WCPD personnel of the NCRPO from the regional headquarters down to its 5 district offices (NPD et al., and QCPD). Notably, the result of the study shows that family and self-care, including psychosocial and mental health, are highly needed as they describe the development and maintenance of stable physical and mental health. Additionally, the data gathered affirm that training and personnel capability enhancement and management and administration of assignments are highly needed. Specifically, the areas such as deployment of policewomen in the WCPD, placement of female WCPD Chief and personnel, Staffing Pattern and provision of an adequate number of personnel, strengthening of WCPC in the management of human resources, streamlining and efficient system of processing of the request for reassignment and placement of personnel, including the policy on reassignment, Standardization of WCPD offices, localization of assignment of WCPD investigators and required years of stay in the WCPD, are the points to be considered and improved in order to achieve optimum performance of WCPD as an office/ unit. Thus, the study provides an enhancement program for the training needs of WCPC investigators.

Abstract

ABSTRACT This study was conducted to assess the digital services of the Philippine Social Security System in terms of processing of personal data, organizational measures, physical measures, and technical measures. The research employed a descriptive-correlational approach, utilizing a questionnaire as the primary data gathering instrument. However, interviews among the 5 heads of the 5 biggest branches of SSS in the NCR were utilized to validate the data taken in the questionnaire among the 3 groups of respondents: BPOs (120), front-liners (180), and clients (1292). For BPOs and front-liners, complete enumeration was used, while convenience sampling was utilized for clients. Weighted mean and one-way ANOVA were used for the treatment of the data. The study revealed that all the indicators in all four variables were, on average, partially implemented. The seriousness of the encountered problems led to a highly recommended assessment of the presented solutions. Further investigation revealed no significant differences in assessment among the three groups of respondents. The study's findings led to the conclusion that Philippine Social Security requires additional physical and electronic paperwork. Additionally, the Philippine Social Security System shares and exchanges personal data with other parties through digital channels. Furthermore, the corporate orientation course for newly hired or absorbed employees does not include security management, despite its availability. Finally, SSS has yet to use advanced technology to detect fake, altered, and fraudulent documents; hence, it still needs to use advanced technology to formulate a comprehensive data security manual to integrate digital measures against cybercrime. Therefore, the study's findings and conclusions inform the following recommendations: Firstly, we should archive and retain physical or electronic documents containing personal data in secure and protected record rooms, offsite storage facilities, or receptacles or cabinets, in accordance with the issued policies. Second, only with prior consent or authority from the data subjects, a judicial order, or a data sharing agreement can we use digital platforms to disclose and share personal data with third parties. Third, newly hired or absorbed employees should include data security management in their corporate orientation course. Fourth, we should use advanced technology to detect fake, altered, and fraudulent documents. Finally, we should formulate a data security manual to incorporate digital measures against cybercrime.

Abstract

This research study aimed to analyze the emerging trends of option-al retirement among PNP personnel and present the trends in the NHQwhich was the highest number of applicants for early retire-ment. It focused on ascertaining the various contributory factors that lead to the vast increase in PNP personnel acquiring early re-tirement. This study also determined the major or common causes why PNP personnel opted to avail of the optional retirement rather than rendering the full length of service.It led to the specification of causal factors including personal reasons, workplace conditions, broader organizational issues, and others. This reflected the com-plex relationship of personal and organizational dynamics that in-fluence retirement decisions within the PNP organization.This study employed a descriptive method of investigation, utilizing stratified random sampling to select the thirty-six (36) respondents. The in-formation gathered from the group of participants from the records at the PRBS conducted at the National Headquarters (NHQ) of the Philippine National Police situated in Camp Rafael T. Crame, Quezon City. From 2019 to 2024 applicants submitted requests for optional retirement benefits. The findings led the PNP organization to pro-pose recommendedpolicy enhancementby the respondents which may be forwarded to the Administrative and Resource Management Division to retain the remaining personnel and maintain morale, such as providing incentives or professional growth opportunities. The management may also strategize on the effective promotion of the organization to encourage more qualified candidates to apply and sustain the ideal workforce balance within the police organiza-tion.

Abstract

This study investigated the link between family dynamics and juve-nile delinquency among Filipino senior high school students. Intact families were associated with greater emotional stability and less delinquency than single-parent or adoptive families; however, strong parental support and communication mitigated negative out-comes in non-traditional families. Family conflict significantly pre-dicted negative outcomes (stress, instability, academic struggles, delinquency). High parental involvement, especially in academics, was associated with positive outcomes. These findings highlight the importance of supportive family environments and underscore the need for family-focused interventions and policies to prevent juve-nile delinquency.
