In fact, much more can be said about the impact of these modern technologies on the basic structure of human personality: the id, ego, and super-ego. The paper proposes a psychosological theory that modifies Sigmund Freud's (1923) basic relationships and interactions of the id, ego and super-ego in his Psycho-analytic Theory. It is claimed that an individual's engagement with virtual reality (social networking) portends a segregation of the super-ego from the id and ego. In a virtual world, social interactions are not constrained by societal norms and standards (super-ego) so that the tendency is for the id (instincts and drives) to merge with the ego (what is real) and they become indistinguishable. The sociological implications of this theory are also explored in this paper.

Specifically, the study sought to determine how the tests characteristics: test difficulty and discrimination, may be quantified through knowledge of the fractal dimensions of the tests. As a by-product of the analysis, we may be able to identify which among the subjects in mathematics (from first year to fourth year) is found most difficult through analyzing and evaluating the ruggedness and irregularities of students' performance. The researcher made use of fractal statistics and segmentation to determine the test difficulty and the mathematical capability of the students. Results reveal that test fractal dimensions can be used as surrogate measures of both test difficulty and test discrimination indices. Both traditional test characteristics monotonically increase and decrease with increasing or decreasing fractal dimensions. High fractal dimensions indicate huge variances in s...

This study utilized the qualitative design, and for the method, data mining was used. From the design used, every quality and characteristic is described as it was practiced in the country from where it is reflected. For the data mining, the data were being considered and findings were obtained for thorough analysis and interpretation. Studies and researches all over the world that tackled on school leadership qualities and characteristics were gathered, presented and discussed. The findings showed that when leaders posses these qualities, they are able to dispose of their functions and responsibilities effectively and efficiently. Furthermore, leaders who possess these qualities and characteristics are able to sustain their leadership, they too, made the...

This study used the interpretative-appreciative-analytical method in examining the values delineated in Cebuano Folklore. The tools used for interpretation and analysis were gathered from selected areas in Cebu. The study identified the common Filipino values that reflect the ideal way on how Filipinos value family, community, and profession. These original values are strongly intuited and expectedly gleaned in the four categories of folklore being studied such as: (a) folktales; (b) folksongs; (c) riddles; and (d) sayuings/proverbs.

Data are mined using internet databases and subjected to cluster analysis. Around 79 countries were sampled to determine values to the: (1) family; (2) environment; (3) work; (4) home finances; (5) morale; and (6) national identity. Religion was also considered for the analysis to determine direct or indirect relationship with the other variables. The study identified 3 models in valuing life: (1) Ideal model (person-oriented); (2) Transactional model (material-oriented/economic-oriented); and (3) Passing and Asocial model (egocentric). Further, it reveals that the family has the major role in cultivating values. It is the milieu that stands as the individual's first community, school and government. This is then translated to other human transactions.
