As a result, it has provoked endless controversy from both scholars from the Old Testament and the New Testament. A number of interpretative positions have been advanced by scholars from different camps and yet they have not arrived to a consensus. For instance, it was argued that the Immanuel was restricted only in the time of Isaiah, never in the New Testament. Another view holds that it was a near future in the prophet’s own time and the remote New Testament fulfilment as recorded in Matthew’s Gospel. The varied interpretations have been carefully analyzed through contextual settings and time frame factors. The study asserts that the Immanuel according to contextual analysis has dual fulfillment: first, there was immediate Immanuel at the time of the prophet Isaiah; second, the final Immanuel arrived more than seven hundred years later, when Jesus was born.","PeriodicalId":7363,"journal":{"name":"Abstract Proceedings International Scholars Conference","volume":"727 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76768326","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 aim of the study is to explore the breastfeeding experiences among Filipino women with high socioeconomic status, as well as their needs in order to initiate and continue breastfeeding. The study utilized qualitative research methods. Six respondents participated in the study and were selected using snowball sampling. A semi-structured interview was done to obtain relevant information about the study. Colaizzi’s method was used to analyze the collected data. The emergent themes developed as follows: (1) perceptions of mothers about breastfeeding, (2) breastfeeding experience of mothers, and (3) needs of the mothers in order to breastfeed successfully. All mothers found breastfeeding to be difficult, most thought that it is best for infants and mothers. All mothers planned to breastfed antenatally and had to balance employment and breastfeeding. Most of them received support from their families, others from breastfeeding support groups, and workplaces. All mothers highlighted the importance of breastfeeding education for mothers, families, and health workers. They all found that determination and family support are significant for mothers to accomplish her desired breastfeeding goals. The researchers recommended that future studies should look into the specific knowledge deficiency of mothers, particularly those of high socioeconomic status regarding breastfeeding; development an extensive breastfeeding education program for health care professionals, pregnant and breastfeeding women, and family members.","PeriodicalId":7363,"journal":{"name":"Abstract Proceedings International Scholars Conference","volume":"13 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90440672","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 respondent’s profile such as age, gender, Birth order and Parents’ educational attainment were also considered in the study as moderator variables. The study employed a descriptive-correlational research design. Data from 226 respondents were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistics. The study found out that the level of the emotional intelligence is average in general management, interpersonal, intrapersonal and adaptability but above average in general mood. The level of emotional intelligence as a whole is average. There is no significant difference in the emotional intelligence of the respondents when the family structure and profile such as age, gender and parents educational attainments is considered. However, there is a significant difference in the emotional intelligence of the respondents when birth order was considered.No variables among the profiles best predict emotional intelligence. Family structure such as living together and widow widower are predictors of intrapersonal.","PeriodicalId":7363,"journal":{"name":"Abstract Proceedings International Scholars Conference","volume":"2 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85962876","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}
