CHAPTER I
Introduction
Preparing on the calamity or disaster is the first thing that they need to do or the student’s
need to do. Disaster preparedness refers to measure taken to prepare for and reduce the
effects of disaster. That is to predict and, where possible prevent disaster, mitigate their
impact on vulnerable population, and respond to and effectively cope with their
consequences. The present quantitative study aimed to investigated the assessment on the
preparedness of the Talavera Senior High School students in the Disaster Risk Reduction
and Management.
Disasters have devastating consequences. They cause death, injury, disease, the destruction
of property and other assets, mass displacement, social and economic disruption, loss of
infrastructure and other services, and damage to the environment. Poor people living in
low and middle income countries have paid a disproportionate price in terms of human
systems, poor risk governance and an absence of the civil protection mechanisms that are
taken for granted in high-income countries. However, while we can’t prevent a hazard
from occurring, we can use disaster risk reduction and management to understand risk and
vulnerability, prevent a hazard from becoming a disaster, and mitigate its impact by

Base on the study of Hans Selye, Md, Ph D (1907-1982) the “Father of Stress”.
Selye is the first endocrinologists who explain “stress” is based on Hans Selye “stress” is
in the environment. According to Hans Selye, every stress leaves an indelible scar, and
organism pays for its survival after stressful situation by becoming a little older.
This theory will help every students how to manage their stress in just 10 simple
tips and these tips will help every students how to reduce their stress level. The first thing
is avoiding caffeine, alcohol and nicotine and the other tips are indulge in physical
activities including get more sleep, try relaxing techniques, talk to someone, keep a stress
diary, take control and last one is rest. These tips will help every students to manage and

purpose of the investigation was to determine if the sources of stress reported by medical
and dental students, both male and female, were due to common factors. A multivariate
statistical analysis was also conducted to measure stress differences by year in school.
Through factor analysis, the survey question responses were grouped into five causal
personal life is- sues, and professional identity. The overall findings show that dental
students had greater levels of stress than medical students in three of the five categories.
The only category in which medical students demonstrated greater stress levels than dental

and dental students, along with students in other health care professions such as pharmacy
and nursing.1,2 The majority of studies on this topic have focused on either medical or
dental student stress related to professional and academic life. Among these studies,
various combinations of quantitative and qualitative methodologies were used that may
not have measured the effects of these stressors in a consistent way. A review of the
11 | P a g e
Republic of the Philippines
Department of Education
REGION III
School Division of Nueva Ecija

available literature reveals that there have been no published reports directly comparing
medical and dental student stress as a focused inquiry using a common survey instrument
affecting each of these groups. This is important because applicants to health care
professions schools are sometimes undecided as to their specific direction. Also, it is not
unusual for these groups to be taught concurrently in biomedical science courses, and
educators should be aware of these differences in order to best respond to the psychosocial
needs of their students. Perhaps the most challenging aspect of con- ducting this type of
analysis is the absence of a common set of metrics to consistently measure stressors for
each group. Stress studies involving dental students over the past twenty-five years have
often used modified versions of the Dental Environmental Stress questionnaire (DES)
developed by Garbee et al. in 1980. This survey instrument contains thirty-eight questions
to determine potential sources of stress for dental students. The questions are classified
into six stress causal categories: academic performance, faculty relations, patient and clinic
responsibilities, personal life issues, professional identity, and financial obligations. Since
the introduction of this instrument, the DES has been translated into several languages and
adapted to various cultural practices for North American and international studies of dental
undergraduates. Stress studies in medical education conducted between 1980 and 2005
used a wide variety of survey instruments. Very few medical school studies used the same
survey instruments more than once. Conversely, a significant number of dental studies
have used the DES successfully. The DES has developed a reputation as a reliable and
valid measurement tool as a result of its flexible design and consistent findings reported in

independent investigations. The primary purpose of our study was to com- pare perceived
stress levels between medical and dental students, determine if the sources of stress
reported by the two groups of students were due to common factors, and explore strategies
for relieving the highest professional student stressors. Secondary research questions
include whether certain stressors affect one type of student more than another (e.g., male
or female, first-year or fourth-year). Interest in pursuing this study arose from a group of
with shared resources to address health professions education stress in a broader, more
efficient way. To collect data, the investigators decided to use a modified version of the
DES to directly compare and contrast the types of stress encountered by male and female
For most of the past hundred years, the pedagogical focus of health professions
requirements and the teaching of clinical decorum have slowly taken a more humanistic
approach. Despite these curricular changes, the evidence of stress studies in the health
professions education literature suggests that the education of medical and dental students
has taken a toll on their physical and psychological health. The Garbee et al. survey
recognized six categories of potential stressors for dental students. For the purpose of our
comparison study of medical and dental students, the six categories were consolidated into

burnout.18 Hayes et al.19 suggested that medical schools promote a culture of intimidation
for students who do not comply with expected behavioral norms. Holm and Aspergen20

often criticized as not being as professionally competent as their colleagues who relied

frustration with the lack of social support from their schools or an inadequate amount of
time for rest and relaxation.4,14,17,22,23 Acha- rya12 reported that Indian dental students
were often stressed by the fear of facing their parents after failing academically. Mounting
financial responsibilities were also found to be a significant source of stress for both
student groups.4,14 Stewart et al.23 noted that the loss of opportunities for social and
recreational activities contributed to higher stress levels, less overall academic success,

to be effective clinicians. Very often, these challenges have been found to be affected by
gender and are also linked to an imperative for students to exhibit perfection in all aspects
In three dental school studies, female dental students had significantly higher
stress levels than males.4,7,9 Burk and Bender9 found that dental students reported their
stress was related to personal disappointments over their academic performance. To cope
with stress caused by their perceptions of inadequate performance, students sought support
from upperclassmen, their peers, and faculty members in their preclinical and clinical
courses. Female dental students were reported to be more likely to experience emotional
problems related to stress. Polychronopoulou and Divaris7 also reported that females felt
much more stressed about the difficulty of their coursework and their fear of failing.
Westerman et al.4 found stress scores to be generally higher among females than males in
Both dental and medical students also suffered stress due to a perceived lack of
stress related to insecurity about professional failure.7,21 Henning et al.2 suggested that
medical and dental students’ pursuit of perfection led them to feel like imposters if they
had difficulties adjusting to the rigors of professional life. Dahlin et al.15 reported that
third- and sixth-year students in Swedish medical schools suffered significant stress from
a lack of confidence in their personal ability to endure long hours and perform clinical
duties competently. Several stress factors were associated with depression. The incidence

of depression symp- toms reported by medical students was felt to be greater than that
found in the general population.15 This study also found that female medical students
reported higher levels of stress than males and that the types of stressors having the greatest
training. Radcliffe and Lester13 reported that developing a professional demeanor was felt
by medical students to be one of the most demanding aspects of their training. These
investigators reported that transition periods, such as graduating from preclinical to clinical
training, were considered the most stressful times in their professional education.
Rosenfield and Jones27 suggested that too much emphasis is placed on scientific
objectivity and detachment in medical training. Knowing when to talk, act, listen, or
tolerate a patient’s distress is part of the art form of medicine. An unfortunate side effect
of medical training noted by these authors is that it produces physicians who believe that
self-denial is valuable and necessary and that living under stress is normal. Research has
also found that the faculty affects a student’s sense of self-efficacy through social influence
and group normative behaviors. Wilkes and Raven28 define social influence as “a change
in the attitude, belief, or behavior of a target resulting from the actions of another person
or group of persons” (p. 481). Student trainees are often considered the lowest members
of the power hierarchy, which makes them more susceptible to social influences. Because
students are uncertain of their competence, afraid of a poor evaluation, or want to please a
superior, these feelings may have a profound effect on their ability to learn and to adopt a
professional demeanor. Wilkes and Raven also argue that medical students’ professional

identity stressors are caused by poor relation- ships with faculty members, who may not
always set a good example for professional behavior. Lack of proper professional
demeanor includes behaviors such as cynicism, disrespect, and disdain for patients and
support staff. Some medical students wishing to establish a favorable relationship with
their faculty preceptors may emulate these behaviors. A faculty member’s professional
style may be reflective of his or her own sense of security and confidence in his or her own
competence. Teaching styles that either nurture or mentally abuse trainees may be
faculty, Wilkes and Raven found that such factors as call schedules, sleep deprivation,
mood changes, lack of proper nutrition, lack of “quality” time with family and friends, and
worry over managing financial debt may also contribute to medical student stress.
The purpose of our study was to compare perceived stress levels between male
and female medical and dental students in each of their four years of training. Because of
the added stringent and precise technical requirements of dentistry, it was hypothesized
that dental students’ overall perceived stress would be greater than that of medical students.

stress level of physical active and in active student in TNHS-SHS. According to Marshall
& Rossman (2010) a researcher can adopt three different kinds of research methods
exploratory, descriptive, and casual research. The researcher in this case should adopt the
descriptive research R Itchic et.al (2013) opined that by using the descriptive method the
researcher will be able to observe a large mass of target population and make require
conclusions about the variable. The researcher by using descriptive research can
effectively design a prestructured questionnaire with both open ended and close ended
question. Since the researcher is trying to analyze the costumer opinion, attitude, behavior,
and satisfaction level in relation to service and product hence the research should
effectively use the descriptive method in order to analyze the data. The researcher here is
not considering explanation of any issues or not aiming to establish any new concept or
theories hence the researcher should effectively use the descriptive method instead of the
exploratory methods. The multiple choice question use in the descriptive method gives the
respondents the attributes from which they need to choose and enables the researcher to
connect the choice of the respondents with the choice of the researcher for the project.
