Adversity Quotient of Public-School Principals in Hinabangan, Western Samar: Effects on Demographics and School Performance
Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2024, Vol 28, Issue 9
Abstract
This study investigated the Adversity Quotient (AQ) of school heads in selected public schools. The research aimed to determine the AQ levels of school heads, identify factors influencing AQ, and explore potential management guides to enhance and sustain AQ. The study involved school heads, all of whom were female, with an average age of 41 years old and above and more than two years of experience as school heads. Demographic data revealed that a majority of the respondents held doctorate units, were married, and earned a monthly net salary exceeding 50,000 pesos. The AQ assessment employed the Adversity Response Profile (ARP), measuring four core dimensions: Control, Ownership, Reach, and Endurance. Results indicated a high overall AQ, with the highest scores in Ownership, followed by Endurance, Reach, and Control. Further analysis revealed no significant correlation between AQ and demographic variables such as age, civil status, educational attainment, or approximate monthly salary. This suggests that AQ is not solely determined by these factors.
