Abstract

The main purpose of this study was to investigate the mediating role of coping strategies on the perceived stress and life satisfaction of Guidance Practitioners in Private Secondary Schools in the Province of Cavite. The study utilized descriptive-correlational design. The participants in this study were fifty three (53) guidance practitioners from private secondary schools in the province of Cavite that were determined through the use of purposive sampling technique. Majority of the participants were affiliated in non-sectarian private secondary schools. Most of them were guidance advocates and guidance associates. There were only few registered guidance counselors participated in the study. In addition, majority of them were 4-6 years in service as guidance practitioners. An online survey was conducted through google forms to the participants to measure the three main variables of the study: Perceived Stress Scale by Sheldon Cohen, Brief-COPE by Charles Carver, and Satisfaction with Life Scale by Ed Diener. The findings revealed that most of the participants have a moderate level of perceived stress. The participants were also obtained a high level of coping strategies. And, most of them are satisfied with their lives at present. The results also showed that there was moderate small negative relationship between perceived stress and life satisfaction level of the participants. However, there was no significant relationship between the perceived stress and coping strategies in terms of problem-focused coping and emotion-focused coping except to the avoidant coping that was significantly related to the perceived stress. Overall, the perceived stress and coping strategies were not significantly related. Also, the coping strategies and life satisfaction were not significantly related. Furthermore, the findings revealed that coping strategies did not serve as mediator on the relationship of perceived stress and life satisfaction. However, the perceived stress is negatively significant predictor of life satisfaction. With all of this, the study recommends that the Department of Education, Philippine Guidance and Counseling Association and future researchers utilize the findings of this study as a guide and to further enhance this study for the benefit of the guidance practitioners.

Abstract

Amputation in military service leading to discharge and transition difficulty is the Philippines was still yet to resolve, a focus on training the jungle and sea division of the military was made in order to train the soldiers for the different terrains that they will engage the rebels on. Over the years, numerous studies were already made on the narratives of the discharged military veterans for both honorable and dishonorable discharges yet there was little to no studies centered around the lives of the medically discharged amputees after leaving the organization. This study aims to narrate the lived experiences of the medically discharged amputees, more specifically a qualitative research study that details their personal lives after leaving the organization. A total of five (5) medically discharged amputees were interviewed face to face in this study and a total of four (4) themes were generated which are ‘Post-Medical Discharge Experience’, ‘Overcoming Adjustments’, ‘Self-Concept’, and 'Personal Goals’. The results showed the difficulty of the amputees to accept their new condition and the engagement in drinking alcohol or using cigarettes to lighten their burdens. The importance of financial stability was also widely discussed fueling a discussion for the consideration of the benefits that the amputees do receive after leaving the organization.
