The correlates between factors and beliefs on political misinformation among college students in a private university in Iloilo City
Full text linkAbstract onlyIn an era marked by the proliferation of misinformation, particularly in the realm of politics, understanding the formation and influence of belief on political misinformation is crucial. This study examined the correlates between factors and beliefs on political misinformation among college students of a private university in lloilo City for the period between December and January 2024. Students were interviewed online using a set of Google-driven survey questionnaires. Most respondents were female, Roman Catholic, and first-year students in their early twenties. Social media fatigue and information overload emerge as primary factors, while lack of information verification skills ranks lowest. Although demographic attributes failed to yield significant associations with belief determinants, a noteworthy correlation emerged between online trust in social media platforms and beliefs in political misinformation. Additionally, social media fatigue and information overload correlated significantly with a lack of information verification skills. These findings underscore the need for enhanced media literacy education and interdisciplinary collaboration to combat political misinformation and promote informed civic engagement in the digital milieu.Includes bibliographical referencesBachelor of Arts in Political Science and Public Administratio

The driving factors of rural households' clean energy consumption and intentions: Inputs to a green business framework
Full text linkFull text availableThis study determined the driving factors of rural households clean energy consumption and intentions as inputs to a green business framework. The study employed a secondary research utilizing macro-level data sourced from the China Energy Statistics Yearbook and micro data from China Rural Energy Consumption Survey, involving 19 provinces and 1892 rural households from 488 counties in 276 cities in china. The results revealed that there were significant relationships between the human, social, economic, and accessibility dimensions of households and their energy consumption. It was observed that households with higher human capital may enjoy "high-quality at low cost". Access to clean energy and its associated costs were significant determinants of clean energy consumption expenditure, with proximity to supply points positively impacting consumption. The probability of households choosing clean energy consumption increased by 0.15 for every 1% increase in educational attainment. For every 1% increase in per capita income, the probability of households choosing clean energy consumption increased by 0.4111, with odds of not choosing clean energy consumption being 1.5084 times higher, with households in the eastern region being 1.97 times more likely to choose clean energy than not.Includes bibliographical referencesDoctor of Management major in Business Managemen

Proposed two-storey municipal hall with basement parking in San Jose De Buenavista, Antique
Full text linkAbstract onlyMunicipal halls are essential to governance and community engagement in the Philippines, acting as administrative centers where local officials oversee affairs, deliver services, and foster civic participation. However, San Jose de Buenavista, as the capital of Antique, faces significant challenges in enhancing its efficiency due to limited space and outdated facilities, highlighting a critical gap in local governance effectiveness that impacts service delivery and community involvement. This lack of adequate infrastructure not only hinders the operational capacity of local government but also affects citizens' accessibility to essential services. The proposed two-storey municipal hall with basement parking aimed to address these pressing issues, such as limited space, inadequate parking, and dispersed government offices, thereby enabling the town to better serve its constituents and promote a more cohesive community environment. The study included detailed architectural plans, mechanical plans, structural designs, plumbing layouts, electrical plans, cost estimates, and work schedules. The structure will be designed in accordance with the NSCP 2015 code of practice. To ensure efficiency and sustainability, green building technologies, including energy-saving fixtures, were incorporated into the design. The proposed building will have a total floor area of 4,496.4 square meters, with an estimated project cost is Php 120,177,986.55, which will be funded by the Local Government Unit and estimated project working days of 420 days. It is recommended that, once the structure is fully functional, the installation of safety and security devices, such as CCTVs and other essential security measures, should be carried outIncludes bibliographical referencesBachelor of Science in Civil Engineerin
