...activities, etc. Another major factor that affects students’ academic performance according to researchers is dating or being in a relationship. Upon entering a relationship during college, one might be forced to choose to either study, or spend time with his partner. This may leave the student with a lot of stress that may affect the student including his studies. The course Bachelor of Science in Business Administration major in Human Resource Operations Management (BSBA-HROM) is a course taken up by hundreds of students in Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila (PLM). PLM is known for its quality education and high standards. Applicants are screened and went to several tests and interviews before being accepted. In this university, each student is required to have a general average of 2.25 at the end of every semester. Whoever fails to meet the required general average, might get kicked out of the university. As a concerned fellow student, the researcher observed that despite the high grade requirement, some students still have time to enter relationships. Along this thought the study about the effects of having relationships to the academic performance of selected students in BSBA-HROM has been conceived. Statement of then problem 1.

...never interested you before become fascinating because you know they are important to this person who is so special to you. You think of this person on every occasion and in everything you do.” (Bob Marley) College life can be stressful, although it is undoubtedly one of the most memorable experiences in one’s life. It represents a critical developmental period for both late adolescents and young adults (Chickering, 1969). College students possess characteristics that changes as they progress in their years at a university. One of the changes that are happening them is the feeling of falling in love and entering into a romantic relationship. Falling in love….. Romantic relationship…. Entering into a relationship is an important stepping stone in the developing stage of a young person’s life. Depending on the maturity of the people in the relationship, it can be either bad or good experience. It can also be helpful or a hindrance to once happiness in life. But either way you are always learning and growing as a person....

...0 The Relationship between being in a Committed Relationship and Academic Performance in College Females Tania Jimenez and Ashley Tatem Abstract This correlational study investigated the relationship between being in a committed relationship and academic performance in college females. The study involved 60 female undergraduate participants from a small, private, Catholic women’s college in northeastern New Jersey. It was hypothesized that college females who were in a supportive committed relationship would have significantly higher GPAs than students who were in unsupportive relationships. The Psychosocial Intimacy Questionnaire (PIQ, Tesch, 1985) was used to measure intimacy, specifically romantic love, supportiveness, and communication ease in a participant’s committed relationship. A student’s current GPA and questions regarding course failure and academic probatio0n. This study investigated the relationship between being in a committed relationship and academic performance in female college students. College students refer to female undergraduates attending a small, private, Catholic women’s college in northeastern New Jersey, at any class standing (freshmen, sophomore, etc). Committed relationship refers to a monogamous, supportive relationship with the student’s significant other. Academic performance refers to the student’s GPA. A study by Bailey and Miller (1998) investigated if female and male undergraduates are more satisfied with their lives if they have more or less...

...CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION a. Background of the Study Academic performance of students may be affected or shaped by a lot of factors to include time management, access to facilities, conducive learning environment, presence or influence of institutional support, and other resources which in one way or another can contribute to scholastic achievement. However, there is not much research, particularly in a local setting, showing focus on the relationship between study time allocation and academic achievement more specifically among fourth year and fifth year engineering and architecture students. It has been observed that among engineering and architecture students, spending much time in studying is not a common practice, or at the very least, is not admitted. There is a question as to whether or not studying does matter especially that such has not been very apparent in the College of Engineering and Architecture. The level of diligence displayed by students of other courses or their devotion to allocating study time appears to be unusual or uncommon in the College of Engineering and Architecture since a substantive level of understanding to the mind-boggling engineering and architecture-related theories and doctrines as commonly expressed in formulas is preferred and is reflected on the degree of intelligence among the students. In other words, analytical intelligence in numbers and figures and not merely diligence defines the students of engineering and architecture. Thus...

...JOB SATISFACTION AND ITS CONSEQUENCES JOB SATISFACTION AND ABSENTEEISM WHY DOESN’T JOB SATISFACTION HAVE A STRONGER RELATIONSHIP WITH ABSENTEEISM? A person may attend work even when dissatisfied with her job because she cannot afford economically to miss work. A person may be absent from his job when satisfied with his job because of a number of reasons such as personal illness, illness of a child, transportation issues (i.e., car broken down). In such circumstances, he may want to attend (have the behavioral intention of attending) but is unable to attend. MODERATORS OF JOB SATISFACTION-ABSENTEEISM RELATIONSHIP Here are some factors that change the relationship between job dissatisfaction and absenteeism and job satisfaction and attendance. 1) Organizational Absenteeism Control Policy. For example, if the organization has a 2% absenteeism policy and enforces this policy through a progressive discipline system, even when a person is dissatisfied with his job they will attend work. Thus, job dissatisfaction as an attitude has less of an effect on absenteeism behavior. The person may have the behavioral intention of being absent but they still attend work. 2) Positive Valence of Non-Work Activities. When an individual has the opportunity to participate in non-work activities that are highly valued by the individual, even when that individual is job satisfied they may choose to participate in the non-work activities rather than coming to...

Whatley wants to focus on questions and theories of critiquing dance and disability performance on screen. She wants to know how disabled dancers depict and embrace their identity through dance, and how this identity can affect the viewers. She simply states, “ my focus is on the screen of disabled dancers within dance films and how reading of disability on screen might generate a theory of looking; might disrupt a presumption of the relationship between screen dance and mobility; and therefore make clear the political implications of screen dance” (Whatley 41)....

...of the student and thus, can affect their academic performance. Is it true and does it differs between different major students? In this project we would like to compare students who are majoring in Arts and Business and how lack of sleep or having more hours of sleeping affects their overall GPAs. Our null hypothesis is that there is no significant difference in the relationship of the hours of sleep and the students' GPAs. We are expecting on our alternative hypothesis that there is a significant difference in that relationship. In order to conduct our research, we will select randomly 2 samples of 15 Art students and 15 Business major students. We agreed that less than 4 hours of sleep is not enough to perform well in school and having more than 4 hours of sleep is beneficial for the students to do well academically. Why should our project be considered? We think this is important for students to know whether sleeping can have a significant impact on their academic performance or not. Being acknowledged about the importance of sleep can help the students recognize the problem and adjust their sleep routines so that they are able to study the most efficiently. We are going to visit the art and business department while randomly collecting and asking the students who are majoring business and art. The question we will ask the students will be how many they sleep every night and what are their current GPA performances. This is quantitative...

...unique actor audience relationship that this theatrical genre relies on? What’s the relationship between actors and audience? In every theatrical performance the manner in which each individual actor treats the audience establishes, sustains or varies a particular kind of actor-audience relationship between them. In some plays all of the actors may adopt the same attitude towards the audience (for example, the entire cast of a production of a Chekhovian drama will usually ignore the audience until the curtain call); in other plays the performers create a range of different relationships towards the audience (for example, most Shakespearean dramas have certain characters who frequently adopt a downstage ‘platea’ playing position that is in direct contact with the audience, while other characters behave as if unaware of the audience’s presence). Audience is an essential part of the theatrical event. With the actor it comprises one of the two indispensable elements of theatre. There seems to be no dispute over this fact. Yet the audience is the most elusive element of the theatre to deal with, source material is scarce and complex; it does not submit to simple analysis or definition. Primary sources tend to mention curiosities connected with the extravagant behavior of spectators, or to ignore the audience altogether. But in Hansel and Gretel, I know Jonathan Aitken and Sheldon Rosen, Ryerson professors, have developed a unique twist on live performance. Incorporating interaction...

...The aim of this essay is to show how the three performances in dance, music and drama were influenced by Brecht, Lea Anderson and the various artists involved with the musical genre of minimalism. This essay will also describe the process the ensemble went through while devising and rehearsing the performance as well as the similarities between the art forms, such as the significance of characterisation within dance and drama when portraying stereotypical characters. Devising For drama, the practitioner the ensemble studied was Berthold Brecht, an early 20th century German theatre practitioner who pioneered the theatrical movement of Epic theatre. Brecht is of particular interest given the similarities in subject matter, as the groups subject is about the detention facility Guantanamo Bay; thematically similar to Brecht’s work which also dealt with topics involving the abuse of power, institutional corruption, the effects of war etc. The ensemble initially did a great deal of research into Epic theatre and the techniques of Epic theatre as well as Berthold Brecht and his life. Following that, they then made a mind map of the problems surrounding Guantanamo and focused particularly on the issues that garnered the least attention publically yet posed the greatest threat to the liberty and rights of everyone. Based on this we chose the unlawful kidnaping, imprisonment and torture of individuals without trial, the implementation of secret courts, and the propaganda published by...

...effort and accomplishment. Without your desire and determination to improve your sports performances, all of the other mental factors, confidence, intensity, focus, and emotions, are meaningless. To become the best athlete you can be, you must be motivated to do what it takes to maximize your ability and achieve your goals. Motivation, simply defined, is the ability to initiate and persist at a task. To perform your best, you must want to begin the process of developing as an athlete and you must be willing to maintain your efforts until you have achieved your goals. Motivation in sports is so important because you must be willing to work hard in the face of fatigue, boredom, pain, and the desire to do other things. Motivation will impact everything that influences your sports performance: physical conditioning, technical and tactical training, mental preparation, and general lifestyle including sleep, diet, school or work, and relationships. The reason motivation is so important is that it is the only contributor to sports performance over which you have control. There are three things that affect how well you perform. First, your ability, which includes your physical, technical, tactical, and mental capabilities. Because ability is something you are born with, you can't change your ability so it is outside of your control. Second, the difficulty of the competition influences performance. Contributors to difficulty include the ability of the opponent and external factors such...
