APPLICATION OF PLAN-DO-CHECK-ACT PRINCIPLES IN MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY MOTORS IN THE PHILIPPINES: ENHANCEMENT OF FUNDAMENTAL PILLAR IN PAINTING PROCESS
The motors industry has encountered prolonged processing times, leading to inefficiencies and quality issues in the production of their products. This extended processing duration has become a significant factor contributing to decreased productivity and various challenges related to product quality. To address these issues, the researcher used a Lean Manufacturing strategy to improve quality and...
Research on bearing fault feature transfer diagnosis based on balanced distribution adaptation under feature fusion
In practical industrial applications, the operating conditions of bearings frequently change, posing significant challenges for reliable fault diagnosis. Traditional machine learning methods, which rely on the assumption of independent and identically distributed samples, often experience a significant decline in diagnostic accuracy under such variable conditions. To address this issue, this paper proposes a bearing fault...
The multidimensionality of situational interest on engagement: Philippine traditional folk dances as a sustainable form of exercise and its preservation as an intangible cultural heritage; La multidimensionalidad del interés situacional en el compromiso: las danzas folclóricas tradicionales filipinas como una forma sostenible de ejercicio y su preservación como patrimonio cultural inmaterial
This study explored the link between situational interest and university engagement among undergraduates from five state universities in the Philippines. The present study used a quantitative predictive design to examine how situational interest dimensions influence engagement in learning Philippine traditional dances. Results indicated that situational interest significantly predicted university engagement, with a notable portion of...

Mediating role of sports emotions in implicit beliefs and mental toughness among athletes; El papel mediador de las emociones deportivas en las creencias implícitas y la fortaleza mental de los atletas
This study examines the mediating role of sports emotions in the relationship between implicit beliefs and mental toughness among student-athletes. Implicit beliefs, categorized as incremental (growth mindset) and entity (fixed mindset), influence athletes’ cognitive, emotional, and behavioral responses to competition. Mental toughness, a key psychological trait in athletic success, is shaped by both cognitive and...
Thermal stress and athletic performance: lived experiences of student-athletes in a tropical climate; Estrés térmico y rendimiento deportivo: experiencias vividas de estudiantes-atletas en un clima tropical
Thermal stress significantly impacts the health, performance, and well-being of student-athletes, particularly in tropical climates like the Philippines. This study explores the lived experiences of student-athletes at Batangas State University The National Engineering University (BatStateU TNEU) regarding thermal stress and its physiological, psychological, and systemic dimensions. Using a phenomenological qualitative approach, data were gathered through...
Ecophysiology and community ecology studies of Philipapine seaweeds: Insights, research opportunities, and possible implications for cultivation and management
Seaweeds are vital to the marine ecosystem as primary producers and it serves as a widely consumed food source for humans. Some species of these marine resources are mainly mass cultivated due to the increased demand for raw materials and derived products. In the Philippines, studies on seaweed community ecology, reproductive biology, and growth began...
DySARNet: a lightweight self-attention deep learning model for diagnosing dysarthria from speech recordings
Dysarthria, a neurological condition impairing speech, has garnered significant research interest in Deep Learning (DL). Curent studies underscore DL’s potential in automating dysarthria diagnosis and severity classification, utilizing well-known benchmark datasets like TORGO and UA-Speech. However, existing DL for dysarthria diagnosis, like Deep Neural Networks, are often computationally expensive, complex, and lack context awareness. This...
