TI - PREVALENCE OF VANDALISM AMONG FEU-NRMF MEDICAL STUDENTS, NOVEMBER 2010 AV - MCFM20110004 PY - 2011/// CY - QUEZON CITY PB - FEU-NRMF N1 - zara'at N2 - ABSTRACT: The study determined the prevalence, forms and causes of vandalism in Far Eastern University - Dr. Nicanor Reyes Medical Foundation Institute of Medicine as of November 2010.

Of the vandals, most were sophomores (45%), followed by freshmen (39%), juniors (14%) and seniors (2%).

Dual parenting and a higher birth order were also cited as predisposing factors Analysis revealed no significant correlation between vandalism and socio-demographic profile except for civil status, which showed a higher tendency for vandalism among singles (95.92%) than those who are married (4.08%) ER -
