ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

This thesis would not have been completed without the help from several

individuals. Above all, the researchers would like to thank Our Creator for giving us

light and strength in times of discouragement. To our professor and adviser, the

witty and inspiring, Mr. Jeric A. Fugen, thank you for guiding us, especially in our

studies. For cajoling us while conducting our research, especially for your patience.

Special thanks to you.

To Ms. Miramar Garcia, administrative officer of Southeast Asian College,

thank you for allowing us to conduct our study on the outside field.

For being part of this research and acceptance to conduct this study,

researchers would like to thank the La Consolacion nursing students, whose

cooperation would not make this research possible. To our parents, who never grow

weary of the endless support, morally and financially, thank you for guiding us and

believing in us.

To our friends who understood us in every way and never left us along the

path of distress and difficulty, while we were in the intoxicated state of conducting

our studies.

Researchers would also like to extend their utmost gratitude to all the

Psychology students and The Psychological Society of Southeast Asian College

Inc., especially the fourth year Psychology students. Thank you for the support.
