Tabile The Contributors 25 3 Guidelines for Contributors 25 8 From the Editor This volume is a collection of research articles focusing on the San Beda University Academic Year 2019-2020 theme: “Pursuit of Peace in Nation-Building.”The nine featured articles tackled from various experiences and perspectives how business organizations, local communities, neighborhood, and the Church as an institution, quest for peace to bring about a nation that is free of violence, fair, just, sustainable, and inclusive to all people. The first paper by Divina M. Edralin and Ronald M. Pastrana on “The Nexus between Sustainable Business Practices and the Quest for Peace” explored the sustainable business practices of selected Philippine corporations that promote the quest for peace. They anchored their study on the theories of Positive Peace, Sustainable Development, and Humanistic Management. They used the qualitative exploratory research design and the holistic multiple case study research strategy and selected through purposive sampling 20 Publicly- Listed Companies in the Philippines. Results on fostering economic development revealed numerous jobs created, training and development, as well as trade and business development programs and activities executed. Analysis on espousing corporate citizenship disclosed many programs and activities related to encourage the use of voice from the firm, community engagement, and governance implemented. Findings on respecting the rule of law showed also various programs and activities that cover compliance with Philippine laws, international laws, and environmental standards. Findings also indicated that the nexus of sustainable business practices and the quest for peace aims to build companies of enduring greatness by doing well and working toward a sustainable future. In conducting responsible business, they were able to help in attaining positive peace in our country, which, in return, is essential for sustainable development, as manifested by their significant contribution in achieving sustainable development/growth, working closely with regulators to achieve shared goals; and protecting the environment and preserving natural resources. The second paper by Ma. Emperatriz C. Gabatbat and Noel D. Santander on “Finding Positive Peace in a Typhoon-Stricken Town of Hernani, Eastern Samar” embarked on how a positive peace in a typhoon-stricken place is possibly experienced. The researchers conducted this study in the simple town of Hernani, Eastern Samar. The research query was how the locals of that typhoon-stricken town absorb, adapt, and recover from the insidious effects brought about by the devastating typhoon. It focused specifically on the resiliency of the locals amid the difficulties and challenges caused by a natural calamity, and how this resiliency had helped them find peace in their lives. Using the methodology and processes of narrative analysis, the results manifested the peace concept of the locals based on what they had experienced. It also showed the factors that made the town a peaceful place to live in as expressed through relevant themes. Consequently, the themes were categorized by using the indicators of the pillars of positive peace. The possible demonstration of the positive peace as expressed in the initiatives done by the existing concerned institutions, illustrated through the attitudes of the locals, and the prevailing structures that operate within the town of Hernani, was seen as a contributor to nation- building. The resiliency shown by the locals amid natural calamity is an essential characteristic of positive peace. The article on “The Role of Sports in Peace-Building” by Bayani C. Matitu summarized the perceptions of combined 113 San Beda University players and coaches - actively involved in Philippines National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA),the associations of variables based on Spearman rho of the levels of characteristics of sports, human development, peace and peace-building efforts. Characteristics of sports relevant to peace and peace-building affect the level of human development of coaches and athletes. The characteristics of sports also affect the level of peace-building efforts. However, characteristics of sports are not associated with the achievement of peace in a broader scope because variety of factors and different actors are involved. The individual coach and athlete’s preference and accessibility on sports are determinants of human development, and peace-building. If the coaches and athletes liked their sports, strongly believed that their sports contributed to physical fitness, mental well- being and social interaction, and strongly believed that sports gave them experiences and enabled them to access individuals or groups of different cultures and levels of ability, then, they also strongly perceived that their sports promoted holistic well-being, and normal life span as healthy people, allowed themselves to express themselves, and be recognized as they enjoyed sports for leisure and affiliation. This article by Margarette C. Cayetano, Pocholo R. Autencio, and Walter Jerome S. Cabale on the “Correlation of Resilience with Good Relations with Neighbors” analyzed the presence of correlation between resilience as a trait and neighborhood as an environmental factor. Wherein, neighborhood was further classified into five (5) underlying factors namely, the Physical Order, the Land Use and Service, the Social Norms and Values, the Social Capital, and, the Social order. This quantitative, cross-sectional, correlation study has utilized self-rated standardized questionnaires— the Brief Resiliency Scale of 2008 by Smith, B. W., Dalen, J., Wiggins, K., Tooley, E., Christopher, P., & Bernard, J., and the Perceived Neighborhood Scale of 2013 by Gariepy G, Smith KJ, Schmitz N. The sample consisted of eighty (80) selected participants in Barangay San Roque, Murphy, Quezon City. Based on the results of the study, two (2) among neighborhood underlying factors were found to have significant negative relationship with resilience, specifically the Physical order (p= 0.047) and the Social order (p= 0.023). Conversely, there was no significant relationship found between resilience

    Spanish and American Colonization Processes in Samar Reynaldo H

    SPANISH AND AMERICAN COLONIZATION PROCESSES IN SAMAR REYNALDO H. IMPERIAL, Ph.D. A. Hispanization Process Until the close of the nineteenth century, Spain's colonial interests in the Philippines centered on the religious, economic and political activities in Manila, which means that most parts of the country remained free from Hispanic influence, either through administrative or political means.1 One clear angle of the Hispanization process was Spain's negligence of the countryside's rich natural resources. Spain solely attached more attention to the unpredictable resources of the Acapulco trade. In this light, Manila remained a somnolent port between China and Mexico - meaning "this superficial commerce did little to develop the productive capacity (potential) of the countryside. But it stimulated an unforeseen migration that directly affected village economics. Merchants were reinforced by artisans, coolies and farmers."2 As early as 1600, the interdependent systems of Hispanic politico­ religious-economic activities yielded an embryonic western economy con­ centrated in Manila, a traditional economy centered in the villages and a Chinese economy merging and segregating the two extremes. As regards Spain's preoccupation with Manila and nearby provinces, ecclesiastical priorities determined the activities in many of the localities beyond Manila or Luzon. In most of Spain's colonial rule, the priests of the various missions constituted the only Spanish entity in the provinces. Because people in these areas attuned their hearts and minds to spiritual or religious activities, they readily responded to the proselytizing efforts of the clerics. 3 Spain's early introduction of political and economic modi- 1 An excellent study on the Filipino response to Spanish rule is in John Leddy Phelan, The Hispanization of the Philippines: Spanish Aims and Filipino Responses 1565-1700 (Madison, Wisconsin: The University of Wisconsin Press, 1959).

Soriano, MHPEd, RN, Assistant Professor, College of Nursing, San Beda University, Manila, Philippines E-mail address: [email protected] Abstract Background: Caring is considered as the fundamental concept of nursing role and provides framework to guide the nursing practice. It involves viewing the totality of an individual in order to provide an optimal level of care to patients. However, this has become a challenge in the current health care system due to the advancement of technology coupled by scarce resources, shortage of nursing personnel and occupational stress. Objectives: The purpose of this descriptive-correlational study was to determine the level of caring behaviors of nurses as perceived by the nurses and patients and determine the difference between their perceptions. Furthermore, the relationship between the level of caring behavior and patient’s satisfaction was determined. Methodology: A purposive sample of 101 patients and 47 nurses were selected in medical-surgical unit of selected Level 3 Hospitals in Manila, Philippines. Staff nurses and patients were asked to rate the level of caring behavior using the Clinical Nurse Patient Interaction Scale (CNPI) Also, patients were asked to rate their level of satisfaction using the Patient Satisfaction Instrument (PSI). Results: Finding suggests that nurses rated themselves higher in terms of caring behavior as compared to the ratings of the patients.

    Lactic Acid Bacteria in Philippine Traditional Fermented Foods

    Chapter 24 Lactic Acid Bacteria in Philippine Traditional Fermented Foods Charina Gracia B. Banaay, Marilen P. Balolong and Francisco B. Elegado Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/50582 1. Introduction The Philippine archipelago is home to a diverse array of ecosystems, organisms, peoples, and cultures. Filipino cuisine is no exception as distinct regional flavors stem from the unique food preparation techniques and culinary traditions of each region. Although Philippine indigenous foods are reminiscent of various foreign influences, local processes are adapted to indigenous ingredients and in accordance with local tastes. Pervasive throughout the numerous islands of the Philippines is the use of fermentation to enhance the organoleptic qualities as well as extend the shelf-life of food. Traditional or indigenous fermented foods are part and parcel of Filipino culture since these are intimately entwined with the life of local people. The three main island-groups of the Philippines, namely – Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, each have their own fermented food products that cater to the local palate. Fermentation processes employed in the production of these indigenous fermented foods often rely entirely on natural microflora of the raw material and the surrounding environment; and procedures are handed down from one generation to the next as a village-art process. Because traditional food fermentation industries are commonly home-based and highly reliant on indigenous materials without the benefit of using commercial starter cultures, microbial assemblages are unique and highly variable per product and per region. Hence the possibility of discovering novel organisms, products, and interactions are likely.
