This study was conducted to look into the role of the Omfeg Youth Organization (OYO) in community development in Omfeg, Bontoc, Mountain Province.
Specifically, it sought to answer the following questions; the extent of attainment of objectives, the level of implementation of the OYO activities and the degree of effect of the activities to the community development.
It covered the calendar year 1998-2001.
The study made use of the descriptive method of research with the questionnaire as its means of data gathering tool. It covered 16 youth and 16 community people in purok Omfeg as its respondents. Statistical tools used to analyze and interpret the data were weighted mean and Sangler’s A-test.
The findings of the study were:
1. The extent of attainment of the objectives of the OYO was perceived by the respondents as “Much Attained” as shown by the grand mean of 3.58. The members, however, perceived the extent of attainment of objectives at a higher extent as revealed by the mean of 3.75, described as “Much Attained”. Their counterpart viewed it on a lower extent with a mean of 3.44, described as “Moderately Attained”.
Sandler’s A Test revealed a computed A-Value of .228 and a critical A-value of .304 at 0.05 level of significance with 4 degrees of freedom. Since, the computed A-value is less than the critical; A-value, Sandler’s A-Test says that the difference in the perception of the two groups is significant.
2. The level of implementation of the activities of the OYO was perceived as “Moderately Implemented” as shown by the grand mean of 3.14. Specifically, both groups perceived the level of implementation as “Moderately Implemented” as revealed by the mean of 3.14 for the members and 3.02 for the non-members.
Statistically, Sandler’s A-Test revealed a computed A-value of 1.083, which is greater than the critical value of 0.276 at 0.05 level of significance with 9 degrees of freedom. Hence, the difference between the perceptions of the members and non-members on level of implementation of activities of the OYO is significantly comparable.
3. The degree of activities of the OYO on community development was 3.06, described as “Moderate Effect”. Both members and non-members had a mean of 3.14 and 3.05, respectively and both were described as “Moderate Effect”. As a result, Sandler’s A-Test found the difference between the perceptions of the two groups of respondents on the degree of effect of the OYO activities on community development as statistically not significant. This is because the computed A-value of 2.247 was greater than the critical value of 0.276 at 0.05 level of significance at 9 degrees of freedom. Hence, the null hypothesis was accepted.
Based on the findings of the study, the following conclusions were drawn:
1. The respondents perceived the extent of attainment of the OYO objective on a much degree. There was a significant difference between the perceptions of the members and non-members on the extent of attainment of the OYO objectives.
2. The respondents perceived the level of implementation of activities on moderate degree. There was no significant difference between the perceptions of the members and the non-members on the level of implementation of the OYO activities.
3. The respondents perceived the degree of effect of the OYO activities on community development on a moderate degree. The difference between their perceptions on this matter was found to be not significant.
Based on the findings and conclusions, the following recommendations are given by the researcher:
1. While the OYO objectives were attained to a much extent, it would still be good on the part of the officers to put more effort in raising the extent of attainment of those objectives, which were found to be moderately attained. This is particularly true to objective 3 where the regular attendance of every member is required in meetings as a way of raising its extent of attainment as an objective. These can be done by making the meeting more interesting and meaningful for the members. Fines can even be imposed if only to emphasize the importance of attendance of meetings.
2. There is a need to increase and expand the participation of the OYO members on all the 10 activities it is presently carrying out. Particular attention is given on activities namely sports, livelihood, reforestation and infrastructure . To do this, the officers with the help of the advisers should find ways to source out funds for these activities. After all, these activities when carried out successfully will not be only for their benefit but also for the benefit of the community.
3. As a purok organization, it should solicit and encourage the support of the barangay officials, the religious purok officials, the community people and the municipal and provincial government one way to another. This is needed if their existence as an organization were to be recognized, involving them on those activities where their participation is needed and appropriate can do this.
