Abstract: CABANSAG, MICAELA B., FERRER, KEY ANGELY B., and FLORES, BEATRIZ M. Gender-Based Perception towards Women as President Among Selected Voters in the Municipality of Rosario, Cavite. Undergraduate Thesis. Bachelor of Arts in Political Science. Cavite State University, Indang, Cavite. June 2022. Adviser: Prof, Renato T. Agdalpen This study was conducted from October 2021 to June 2022 at the Municipality of Rosario, Cavite. It generally aims to provide an understanding of the gender-based perception towards women as president among registered voters of Rosario, Cavite. Specifically, this study sought to find out the perception of male and female voters towards women as president in terms of different aspect of leadership namely: (a) leadership traits; (b) leadership style; and (c) issue competency. Furthermore, the significant differences between the voter's perceptions were identified. It also examined the significant relationship between the voter's gender and their perception towards women as president. The study used a descriptive correlational method in analyzing the relationship between the variables. The participants of the study were 383 voters coming from ages 25 and above who already voted more than once. Data was collected through a survey questionnaire in the form of 5-point Likert’s Scale. For the data analysis and interpretation, the statistical procedures utilized were frequency, mean, standard deviation, T-test and Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (r). The findings of the study revealed that the perception of female and male voters towards women as president in terms of leadership traits and leadership style were neutral, with a 'neither agree nor disagree' verbal interpretation to the survey, except in issue competency where women have 'agree' verbal interpretation. It was further shown that there is only a significant difference in male and female voters' perception towards women as president in terms of their leadership style. Moreover, no significant relationship between voters ‘gender and perception to women presidents were found. Hence, this study recommends that programs be created that supports and guides both the voters and the candidates to be gender fair and have gender awareness towards their voting behavior and vote choice, and for the future researchers to create more in-depth research on voter's gendered perception towards women as presidents and its larger impact on women's situation in the Philippine politics.
