Abstract/Summary

This study sought to identify, describe and compare the factors that affect both the role perception and performance of 50 community partners of Health Resource Development Program (HRDP) in Silang, Cavite. The study employed both quantitative and qualitative methods of data gathering (i.e. survey and case study).

The findings of the study revealed that sex and occupation are the socio- demographic characteristics that affect the partners’ role perception while

organizational membership affects program participation. Other socio- demographic variables were found insignificant. The results further revealed

that program opportunities, whether through formal (e.g. training) or informal (e.g. interpersonal skills) mechanisms, were found to have direct linear relationship with perception and performance. Moreover, program participation was also found to be directly dependent on role perception.

Finally, the study showed that women were more involved than men in health programs like HRDP. Certain personal factors (i.e. sex, occupation and organizational membership) influenced role perception either favorably or

unfavorably and predicted the outcome of program participation. Implementer- related factors such as training, quality of coaching, program inputs, and

interpersonal skills of implementers were noted to have significant influences on the partners’ role perception and performance. It appeared that the “service-delivery model” implementing mechanism and the very traditional top-down approach in decision-making contributed to the limited community participation being forged by the program.
