A fractal analysis was used by computing the fractal dimensions of the population distribution of the province. Data are based on the population of 20 municipalities and two (2) cities in 16 years, from 1995 to 2010. The results showed that there is a slight decrease of fractal dimensions which implies that there is an approximately equal population in the municipalities over a period. Various conditions account for the decrease of variability in the population distribution. It may be attributed to their economic situations and cultural practices.Keywords:  Fractal analysis, population distribution, Bukidnon, municipalities, cities","PeriodicalId":233251,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Social and Behavioral Sciences","volume":"28 1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123078306","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Results revealed that the ruggedness of poverty incidence across the countries is due to the ruggedness of the MPI, that is, the deprivation to basic services such as health, education, and standard of living affects the quality of living.

The author used descriptive method of research using semi-structured interviews as the primary approach. Follow-up clarifying interviews were also conducted which were carried out in a conversational style. Field notes were also written in conjunction with the interviews, observations and casual encounters with subjects. Results showed that the seven tribes have farming as their source of livelihood. Other sources of income include farm labor, peddling, weaving, among others. Of the seven only three received livelihood assistance. Although livelihood opportunities are available, lack of capital seems to be the main problem of the tribes. Their average monthly income is very low and not even enough for daily subsistence. Poverty apparently exists in every tribe of Bukidnon. However, there is still a great possibility for the return of self- sufficiency and self-reliance of the seven tribes of Bukidnon if the people’s economic concern is addressed.Keywords:  economic dimension, livelihood, income sources, livelihood assistance","PeriodicalId":233251,"journal":{"name":"Asia Pacific Journal of Social and Behavioral Sciences","volume":"46 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124592854","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A General Linear Model was used to find out if difference existed on the number of microbes during the trial periods. It showed no significant evidence for source effect. Also, the number of microbes in each source did not change over time for fecal coliform, E.coli and total coliforms.
