THE IMPACT OF MODERNIZATION IN THE PHILIPPINES

Abstract

The report contains four chapters dealing with projects conducted under a basic research program. The first chapter, a study of the Cursillo, explains how the three-day little course in Christianity is effective on the personal, group, and community levels. The second chapter on cultural differences in communication among Filipino, African, and American Students, presents the results of experiments in networks--problem solving by groups whose members communicated with each other only in writing. The third chapter on autonomy, dependency, and problem solving in Filipino children is a report on the results of psychological tests administered to boys in kindergartern and first grade. The fourth chapter is on infant and maternal nutrition in four Tagalog communities.
