Abstract: MANAGO, GEMMA PAGKALIWANGAN. “Socio-emotional Dilemma and Self Esteem of Midlifers in Selected Barangays of Indang Cavite”. Undergraduate Thesis. Bachelor of Science in Psychology. Cavite State University Indang Cavite. April 2009. Adviser: Mr. Renato A. Agdalpen. This study entitled “Socio-emotional Dilemma and Self Esteem of Midlifers in Selected Barangays of Indang Cavite” aimed to find out the relationship between the socio-emotional dilemma and self esteem of the respondents. Specifically this study answered the following questions: (1). What is the demographic profile of the midlifer respondents in terms of age, gender, educational attainment, and number of children, number of years in marriage and occupation of the respondents; (2). What is the socio- emotional dilemma encountered by the midlifer respondents in terms of relationship with spouse, parents, children, siblings, grandchildren, with other people and discontentment with one’s self; (3). What is the level of self esteem of midlifers respondents; and (4). Is there a significant relationship between socio-emotional dilemma and self esteem of midlifer respondents?. The data was gathered using a lifted instrument entitled Midlife Dilemma Test and Self Esteem Inventory Test from Rosenberg and Dr. Terry Kellard. The method utilised in this study was stratified. The respondents involved were 263 males and females married from three (3) selected barangays. Findings showed that the socio- emotional dilemma of the midlifer respondents signifies that they encounter few changes and see them as a natural part of aging. Results also revealed that the midlifer respondents in selected barangays of Indang Cavite have low level of self esteem. Finding also revealed that the socio-emotional dilemma did not influence the level of self esteem of the midlifers. Therefore, whenever the midlifers make satisfactory adjustments in their relationships, their self-concepts and level of self- esteem were never affected. Even if their level of self esteem is low, they are not characterised by feelings of worthlessness. They still view that they can still make worthwhile contributions. Consequently, there is no significant relationship between socio-emotional dilemma and self esteem of midlifer respondents.
