Philippine Social Science Council's Research Award Program Virginia A. Miralao, Ph.D. PSSC Executive Director

Recognizing the central role of research in the advancement of the social sciences, much of PSSC's programs and activities have been linked with research.

In the early 1970s or soon after its formal establishment in 1968, a major concern of PSSC was the development of research capacity among the country's institutions of higher learning. For this, PSSC began a Research Training and Institutional Development Program managed by the Council's Institutional Development Committee. Its major activity was the conduct of research training programs in the summer and participated in by faculty members and the research personnel of universities and colleges from all over the Philippines. The complete program covered three summers which allowed a participant to undergo training in basic, advanced 'and specialized courses in social research methods. In a report on PSSC and its programs appearing in the May 1976 issue of the PSSC Social Science Information, then Executive Director Loretta Makasiar-Sicat noted that the Program had trained faculty and personnel from as many as 22 universities and colleges from different regions of the land. PSSC's Research Training Program enabled the formation of the'PSSC Research Network among participating trainees and institutions in the mid-1970s. The Network facilitated the conduct of PSSC-led national surveys and the development of regional research centers to meet the growing need of government offices, development aid agencies and other groups for systematic data collection and analysis and other research-related work. In the 1980s, these regional research centers came to comprise the PSSC Research Consortium which undertook studies relevant to regional/local concerns as well as to national development.

Other than the above Research Training and Institutional Development Program, PSSC had a separate "Research Program" handled by a Research Committee which awarded research grants to senior and junior social scientists. PSSC's grant- making activities were made under three categories as follows: (1) the Research Integration Program which was meant to fund "state-of-the-art" work to identify data gaps and new directions for research exploration; (2) the Modern Philippine History Program that funded the research interests and ongoing work of senior- level academicians and social scientists; and (3) the Discretionary Research SOCIAL SCIENCE INFORMATION

Award Program which was originally intended to respond to requests from loca scholars for small amounts of research funds (a maximum of P3,000 per grant).

The Discretionary Research Award Program, the predecessor of the present-day Research Award Program, turned out to be the more popular and enduring of PSSC's research programs. This is so because majority of its clientele were (and are) graduate students completing their MAs or PhDs even as the program originally was not meant exclusively for graduate students. Towardsthe end of the 1980s, the Discretionary Research Award Program came to be referred to as PSSC's Research Award Program and in 1993-1994, the Research Committee instituted a number of measures to improve the provisions of the Research Award Program. Foremost among these were the increase in the allocation for the Research Award Program in PSSC's annual budget from P60,000 to P100,000; and commensurate increases in individual grants from P8,000 to P20,000 for doctoral grants, and from P5,000 to P10,000 for Master's grants. Since then, the grants under the program have been continuously upgraded. Beginning 2000 and up to the present, the allocation for the Research Award Program in PSSC's budget has doubled to P200,000 per year. Doctoral grantees are allowed a maximum grant assistance of P40,000 each, while MA level grantees can be given as much as P20,000 each.

Today, PSSC's Research Committee continues to receive some 15 to 20 Research Award Program (now commonly referred to as RAP) applications per year, around half of which successfully make it through the program's review and selection procedures, and are awarded the grants.

In turn, a high 80 percent to 90 percent of those awarded the grants in any given year complete their thesis or dissertation research and obtain their MA or PhD degrees. The directory of RAP grantees contained in this issue of the PSSC Social Science Information shows the list of 411 individuals who availed of RAP assistance from 1972 to 2007 and have since completed their degree programs in the social sciences and related fields.

Of the 411 names in the directory, a clear majority (250 or 61 percent) were living and/or working in Metro at the time of their applications, with only 15 percent coming from provinces in , 13 percent from , and 9 percent from Visayas (see accompanying Table). The predominance of -based applicants is understandable given the fact that RAP applicants tend to be recruited from Metro Manila universities offering graduate degree programs in the social sciences. Noting this imbalance, PSSC Research Committees in the 1990s began seeking and encouraging applications from the provinces. In 1998-1999, PSSC in fact developed a Research Outreach I Training Program consisting of a three-day intensive training-workshop on Thesis/

INTRODUCTIC

Dissertation Proposal Writing to upgrade the quality of thesis proposals submitted to the Research Award Program and with regional universities and colleges as the training program's main beneficiaries. PSSC also took the Research Outreach Training Program to Tacloban City and Marawi City on the invitation of local universities. Most of the 154 non-Metro Manila RAP grantees shown in the Table come from the ranks of more recent RAP cohorts and it is hoped that non-Metro Manilans will continue to increase their share of RAP applicants in the future.

Again, because of Metro Manila's disproportionate share of the country's institutions of higher learning, the overwhelming majority of RAP grantees from 1972 to 2007 (356 or 87%) obtained their graduate degrees from universities located in the National Capital Region. The University of the Philippines-Diliman campus claims the most number of graduates (58%) of RAP grantees, while Ateneo de Manila University and De La Salle University and their joint programs account for a much lower 21 percent, and 11 other Metro Manila universities share another 7 percent.

From the regions, the Table shows that some 14 RAP grantees obtained their graduate degrees from various universities in Luzon; 20 others from universities in the Visayas; and 14 from Mindanao universities. Of the provincial universities, Silliman University and the University of San Carlos in the Visayas, and Xavier University in Mindanao have the larger number of RAP assisted graduates. (Research units/offices of these three universities are part of PSSC's Research Network). Finally, some seven RAP grantees obtained their degrees from abroad, three from the US, two from the UK, and one each from Germany and Australia.

In terms of degree programs, the greater number of grantees (6 out of 10) availed of RAP assistance to complete their Master's studies, while about 40 percent did so to finish their doctoral programs. Consistent too, with RAP's objective of lending support to the formal training of successor generations of social scientists, the large majority of RAP grantees (265 or 64%) obtained their degrees in the social science disciplines that comprise PSSC. Of these disciplines, more RAP grantees have pursued graduate degrees in Psychology (75), followed by Sociology (39), History (31), Communication (29), and Anthropology and Linguistics (20 each). In descending order, the Table shows that the disciplines with the fewer number of RAP grantees are Political Science, Public Administration, Economics, Demography, Statistics, Geography, and Social Work.

Over a third of the RAP grantees from 1972 to 2007 obtained their degrees not in PSSC's core disciplines, but in related fields. The more popular of these fields are Education with as many as 56 grantees, and Area (Philippine and Asian) Studies, with 40 grantees.

Finally, it is not surprising that gender-wise, there are far more women RAP grantees than men, considering that there are also more female than male college graduates in the country today. Women therefore constitute the larger pool from which graduate students (and by extension) RAP grantees would come.

This directory of RAP grantees updates our database of an important and enduring program of PSSC. The program has raised the profile of PSSC and broadened the reach of the Council. We hope that the program will continue to draw graduate 0 students and encourage research in the social sciences. DIRECTORY OF RAP GRANTEES

TRIBUTE TO ISAGANI A. LACHICA 1974-2007 by Lorna P. Makil

Isagani A. Lachica first came to PSSC to answer an ad that we had issued for an assistant in the Technical Services and Information Section. Like most of those who applied for the position, Gani, as he was fondly called, had finished an undergraduate degree (Public Administration, University of the Philippines-Diliman) and was enrolled in graduate studies (Sociology, UP- Diliman). I interviewed him for the job, and I felt that he had the qualities that we were looking for (i.e., a keen interest in reading and a patient nature in as much as he would be typo-editing materials for publication, and the skills for technical assistance in backstopping committees and public fora). After we hired him, Gani settled into his new job with relative ease, winning the rest of the staff with his friendly and gentle ways.

He was a conscientious and responsible worker. Many times, I would end a working day with him still at his desk, reading and marking the last few pages of a manuscript so corrections could be finalized the following morning without delay.

Gan] had many interests. It was refreshing to talk with him on a wide range of topics from pop culture to more serious issues as self-identity, good governance, social development, and commentaries on the news. He read and bought books to start a personal library, watching out for book sales and the arrival of the ship MV Doulos that docked yearly at Manila. He was also interested in culture and the arts and attended concerts and plays after office hours or weekends.

In 2000-2001, Gani backstopped a joint project of the UNESCO National Commission of the Philippines and PSSC to review "The Social and Human Sciences in Philippine Basic Education," and a subsequent project of "Using Important Concepts in Social and Human Sciences to Improve Learning Content and Processes in Social Studies." This experience bolstered his burgeoning interest in education and teaching. l. [Ld! SOCIAL SCIENCE INFORMATION

He resigned in 2004 to teach social studies at the Community of Learners, and after a year, transferred to his alma matter, Mother Goose Special Science High School in Dagupan City.

In early 2006, he returned to PSSC to initially help organize the Frank X. Lynch Library. After a few months, he was asked to assist in the Ford Foundation International Fellowships Program-Philippines (IFP-Philippines), which is being administered by PSSC. The job suited his interests well and gave him the opportunity of meeting and talking with applicants from all over the country. He also resumed his graduate studies at the UP and enrolled in Special Education courses at the Philippine Normal University.

The loss of an older brother last year thrust him into a new role of being the man of the family, which he tried to meet, making regular visits to Dagupan to be with his parents and other siblings.

News of his untimely death while traveling back to Manila after the Christmas holidays was shocking and deeply saddening. Defined by a "restlessness" to accomplish much within his short lifetime, he seemed destined to serve others.

In his death, the PSSC Secretariat and I have lost a valued worker and a beloved friend.
