Exploring Traditional Healing Rituals of Partido Albularyo and Understanding Its Cultural Significance to Local Beliefs

From the old name babaylan, the traditional healers now operate under various names, such as albularyo, manghihilot, mangluluop, mangtatawas, and faith healers. They become instrumental in ensuring that their kapwa (fellow) receives the health care a person needs regardless of gender and social status. In this context, this study traced the existence of traditional healers in the fourth district of the province of Camarines Sur known as Partido area. It was found that ancient parabulong in Partido area is commonly called albularyo which is considered as the “general practitioner” knowledgeable in most of the folkloric modalities, usually versed in the use of medicinal herbs and spiritual/supernatural interventions. Their procedures and rituals were observed with similarities on performing oràsyon, hilot, and himolso; likewise, with their common healing paraphernalia such as lana and kandilâ. Although there are noted differences and similarities on the description of their practices and procedures, these key informants’ healing practices are all centered to God with a pure intention to cure one’s illnesses and to be of help to other people. Hence, further studies on the psychological effects of albularyos and exploring the other features of traditional healing of Partido area should be conducted and be preserved as part of the locals’ culture and tradition. If possible, a need to establish an organization for these indigenous healers is recognized, so that, they will not be exploited by this modern society and will continue to exist for generations.

Financial Literacy: Its Relation to Financial Behavior of the Grade 11 STEM Students of Zamboanga Del Norte National High School Turno Campus

The world is facing extreme financial crisis; prices of commodities are always changing and inflation rate drastically increasing. With this, the paper examined the relationship between financial literacy and financial behavior of randomly selected public senior high school STEM students. The nature of the strand is not focused on financial subjects and an in-depth understanding of this aspect bridges the gap of inculcating young minds the essence of finances at an early age. Financial literacy is indicated in terms of savings and investment, debt behavior and money management while financial behavior is supported by the dual process theory and composed of system 1 or intuitive processing and system 2 or the reflective thinking. Quantitative analysis used weighted mean, one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA), independent t-test, Pearson-r correlation and Spearman’s rank-order correlation to analyze the data. Results showed that the level of financial literacy in terms of savings and investment, debt behavior, and money management are high, moderate, and very high with average means of 3.45, 3.35, 4.35, respectively. For financial behavior, the levels in terms of system 1 and system 2 are low and high with an average means of 2.35 and 3.07, respectively. It also showed that sex is a factor that determines financial literacy at .045 significant value. Thus, there is a significant correlation between financial literacy and financial behavior that means financial literacy influences the financial behavior of students and knowledge on finances may or may not affect how they create financial decisions.

Lived Experiences of Indigenous People Learners in English Written Proficiency

This phenomenological study aimed to explore the lived experiences of indigenous people (IP) learners in English writing. Qualitative data were gathered through a focus group discussion among the purposively selected IP learners. It was found out that IP learners were challenged to effectively express their thoughts in English writing despite of having the interest. Poor English vocabulary, spelling, word translation, and weak sentence construction were the challenges they have encountered in English writing. Aside from that, limited time and distracting environment affect the quality of their writings. Despite all uncertainties, IP learners felt proud and happy with what they have accomplished. Moreover, IP learners still prefer to read books to learn more about English language, but they were also able to utilize various online applications such as Google, YouTube, and Bilibili as supplemental learning resources in developing their English writing skills as they also drawn motivations from their families and teachers in writing in English. Proper implementation of the proposed writing intervention program could help IP learners improve their English writing skills.
