Abstract:
The Philippines has entered a new regime after the divisive national elections last year. Along
with this transition is the continuous endangerment to civic space and threats to democracy in the
context of prevalent socio-political issues brought by governmnet's authoritarian tendencies such
as red tagging, disinformation, among others which are deemed to affect political behaviors. The
researchers in this regard, would like to have a deeper understanding on Filipino political
affiliation and civic engagement through addressing gaps within existing related literature. The
researchers, in relation, conducted two online surveys measuring the mentioned two research
variables to thirty Filipino university-level students who are registered voters along with their
parents through questionnaires adapted from World Values Survey Association and Journal of
Applied Developmental Psychology, where data would be quantitatively analyzed using central
tendencies and regression analysis.
