...researcher to have a better understanding and a wider perspective of this investigation. Adversity Quotient (AQ) and its nature Resilience refers to the ability to cope or to give a successful response to high risk or adversity as measured by the four CO2RE scales of the adversity quotient. It is an outcome of both individual characteristics and environmental causes. Resilience is viewed by the individual from the inside as he or she responds to the outside or external influences and events, viz. Adversity. Richard Davidson, director of the Laboratory for Effective Neuroscience at the University of Wisconsin, conducted a landmark series of brain imaging studies that tested two groups of people: one identified as highly resilient to life’s ups and downs, the other easily upset by them. Davidson tracked their brain function as they performed stressful tasks, such as writing about the most upsetting experience in their lives or performing difficult math problems under time pressure (Goleman, 1997). Resilient people have a remarkably rapid recovery from stress. A study of store managers at a large American retail chain store found that the managers who were most tense, beleaguered, or overwhelmed by job pressures ran stores with the worst performance, as measured four ways: by net profits, sales per square foot, sales per employee, and per dollar of inventory investment. And those who stayed most composed under the same pressures had the best per store sales...

...study. Background and Rationale of the Study The School Health Nursing Program (SHNP)is an integral part of the total school program. The philosophy of the School Health Nursing Program is consistent with the socio-economic, cultural and political philosophy of the people. Therefore, health and nutrition education are aligned with their democratic way of life. The School Health Nursing Program is a health service offered by the DepEd for elementary school children in the province of Capiz. School nurses visit schools throughout the year to provide children with the opportunity to have their health checked; provide information and advice about healthy behaviors and link children and families to community-based health and wellbeing services. This program is designed to identify children with potential health-related learning difficulties and to respond to health concerns and observations about the child's health and wellbeing. Other activities offered by the program may include formal and informal health education and health promotion to the school community. The School Health Nursing Program plays a key role in reducing negative health outcomes and risk taking behaviors among pupils. Its focus is on prevention of ill health and problem behaviors by ensuring coordination between the school and the community based health and support services (Harmon, et. al. 2005). The School Health Nursing Program supports the school community in addressing contemporary health and social...

...to the healthy growth and development of a young individual’s personality. It brings experiences on character building, sense of responsibility, knowledge about many things, and it makes one skillful, equipped and prepared to face the challenges that will come his or her way and to make one’s dream come true. It opens doors of brilliant career and opportunities in life. Being in high school is one of the most important endeavors that a child should experience. It may be difficult to adjust to the new changes during the first year because some can be confused and scared but it can also be very exciting to others. However, the students will soon notice that high school life and learning is fun yet complicated. Generally, being responsible students, they should deal with the problems being faced in high school in a positive manner. Public schools handle about thousands of pupils in a year. One of the hardest problems being faced in public school is dropping out of several students. Therefore, the researchers want to figure out the common reasons of high school dropouts in Emiliano Tria Tirona Memorial National High School. Graduating from high school is not enough, an individual should pursue a college education, either vocational or a four year course for him or her to have a brighter future.

...million in 1995 to 76.5 million in 2000. During this period, the population growth rate (PGR) was 2.36 percent per year, which means the population doubling time will be within 29 years if the rate does not decline (NSO, 2001). Side by side with rapid population growth is poverty, which still grips about a third of the country's 15.3 million households (NSO, 2001a). This Country Report is timely in that it revisits the link between population/development and poverty, environment, and resources. The Report has two purposes. First, it intends to review the Philippine population/development situation, including issues of reproductive health and gender equity, from the perspective of goals affirmed in the Bali Declaration, the ICPD Program of Action and other related documents. The report's second purpose is to highlight priority population issues in the context of alleviating poverty and improving the quality of life of Filipinos. To reduce poverty significantly within the coming decade, the Philippines must face the challenge of building the capacities of its vast human capital. Only in this way can Filipino families, especially the poor, meaningfully, responsibly, and productively participate in the development process.
