Between the school years of 2009-2012, the turnover record of the University of San Jose-Recoletos (USJ-R), Cebu City, Philippines showed that permanent faculty members who left the institution were all midlifers. Their reasons varied from health issues to greener pasture elsewhere.
This study then sought to explore the health statuses of the faculty midlifers of the USJ-R. The data were collected through survey conducted among the 106 faculty midlifers of the university. This study applied multivariate analyses to the survey data using Pearson-moment of correlation to determine the relationship between the sociodemographic profile of the research participants and their health statuses.
This research revealed that faculty midlifers are generally well physically. They showed emotional maturity and have positive outlook toward midlife. More so, their health conditions are significantly related with their sex, age, years of teaching, educational attainment, and income.
At midlife, the faculty members of USJ-R can still generally be considered physically well. Thus, if they are well-managed, they can become relevant and better contributors to the attainment of the basic goals and objectives of the educational institution and the educational system in general.
在2009 - 2012学年期间,菲律宾宿务市圣何塞-雷科莱托斯大学(USJ - R)的人员流动记录显示,离开该机构的终身教职员工均为中年人。他们离职的原因多种多样,从健康问题到去其他更好的地方发展。
本研究旨在探究圣何塞-雷科莱托斯大学中年教职员工的健康状况。通过对该大学106名中年教职员工进行调查收集数据。本研究对调查数据应用多元分析,使用皮尔逊积矩相关来确定研究参与者的社会人口学特征与其健康状况之间的关系。
本研究表明,中年教职员工总体身体状况良好。他们表现出情感成熟,对中年有着积极的看法。此外,他们的健康状况与性别、年龄、教学年限、教育程度和收入显著相关。
在中年时期,圣何塞-雷科莱托斯大学的教职员工总体上仍可被认为身体状况良好。因此,如果对他们进行良好管理,他们能够成为教育机构以及整个教育系统实现基本目标的重要且更有贡献的力量。
