The study utilized a descriptive research method to gather information on the traceability of BSC graduates. A complete enumeration random sampling method was employed, with a total population of 171 graduates (81 males and 90 females). Findings revealed that most graduates were single and aged between 20-30, with batch 2023 producing the highest number of graduates. A small percentage pursued vocational courses or further studies. The employment rate stood at 35%, with a majority employed as regular or job order employees. Graduates reported a relevant college degree to their present work, with a significant portion earning monthly incomes ranging from 11,000 to 30,000. The majority took 0-8 months to secure employment post-graduation. Additionally, a notable proportion worked in degree related jobs. The study found high levels of work ethic, educational quality provision, and skills and abilities development among BSC graduates.

A total of 110 public elementary school teachers teaching in Tarragona District, Davao Oriental Division were identified through Tabachnick and Fidell (2007) calculation of sample size. The study utilized a descriptive-correlation design. Mean, Pearson r, and regression analysis were used as statistical tools of the study. Results revealed on the extent of teachers conflict inducing attitudes in terms of Teacher Incivility were sometimes evident, in terms of Teacher Discrimination was sometimes evident, in terms of University Resources was oftentimes evident. On the Students Psychological Health was always evident. Clearly, the findings inferred a strong significant relationship between teachers conflict-inducing attitudes and students psychological health. Based on the result of the analysis, the teachers conflict inducing attitudes domains namely: teacher incivility, teacher discrimination, and university resources significantly influences students psychological health by registering a p-value of less than.000 in the level of significance. Further, the result indicates that for every unit increase in the three domains of teachers conflict inducing attitudes predictors, the students psychological health will increase by 3.894 holding other factors constant. Conflict inducing attitudes significantly influenced students psychological health. Hence, this study recommends teachers should be encouraged professional development programs that target specific conflict-inducing attitudes, leading to personal growth and improved professional practice. Teachers should engage in training and workshops that help them develop stronger interpersonal skills and conflict resolution strategies. \u0000KEYWORDS: Teachers conflict inducing attitudes, psychological health, teacher incivility, teacher discrimination, university resources","PeriodicalId":309586,"journal":{"name":"EPRA International Journal of Multidisciplinary Research (IJMR)","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140968716","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}

The study used sequential explanatory research. The research participants consisted of thirty (30) students from the ABM strand and eighteen (18) peer tutors from the STEM strand of Zamboanga del Sur National High School – Senior High during the school year 2022-2023.
