The community is now part of police organizations. Police must work in a law-breaking community that needs aid. The community supports and complains about the police, but most importantly, it evaluates their performance. PNP-approved permanent roadblocks must be handled by local uniformed personnel.

Cotabato City people are the study's key respondents. Citizens are stakeholders and direct beneficiaries of police checkpoints. Thus, they may assess their efficacy This research will sample purposively. The research methodology and data collection will include a letter to participants. Researchers may also use saturation to achieve a point when additional volunteers provide no new information. This extensive analysis of Cotabato City police checkpoint actions uses carefully prepared questions to collect specific information from respondents. Ethics guided our whole inquiry. Many conclusions may be drawn from this study. Major police roadblocks in Cotabato City increase security. Checkpoints detect contraband and security hazards, but they may be improved.

This quantitative study sought to determine the level of awareness of educators and learners about the different forms of bullying. Twenty faculty members and two hundred sixty randomly chosen Headstart College of Cotabato learners enrolled in the 2024–2025 academic year participated in the survey through a stratified random sampling technique. With mean scores ranging from high to very high, and an overall very high interpretation, the learners demonstrated a high level of understanding of the many forms of bullying, including written, verbal, electronic, and physical acts or gestures. The educator with a very high interpretation indicates a good level of understanding regarding the four types of bullying. The Mann-Whitney U test, which compares educators and learners' awareness of different forms of bullying, reveals no statistically significant differences in most of the categories: written bullying (U=2166.50, p=0.2149), electronic expression (U=2243.50, p=0.3077), physical acts or gestures (U=2498.00, p=0.7718), however in terms of verbal bullying (U=1706.50, p=0.0105) shows significant with very high awareness result. In order to strengthen school-wide efforts (Headstart College of Cotabato) to prevent bullying, it is suggested that “Perspective Recalibration: A Capacity Enhancement Program on Bullying Awareness of Educators and Learners” be created. This program would align educators' and learners' perspectives through a shared understanding of bullying behaviors.

This study examines social media's quantitative effect on juvenile criminality. The researcher intends to quantify how social media usage affects juvenile delinquency. The research will examine mediating elements, including peer influence, self-esteem, and antisocial content. This study may educate parents, educators, politicians, and mental health experts on adolescent social media usage hazards. This study aims to establish evidence-based social media mitigation and youth development solutions. This research employed quantitative methodologies. The target population for this study will be two hundred (200) criminology students of Headstart College of Cotabato. Participants will be selected using a time-efficient random selection strategy. The findings of a power analysis will be used to calculate the sample size needed to achieve the desired level of statistical significance. The researcher will administer the survey questionnaire face-to-face after proper coordination with the College head. Respondents had enough time to complete the survey questions. The researcher and respondents will complete the questionnaire in their own time to gather and retrieve data: data quantification, categorization, and statistical description. Weighted mean and correlation were utilized to assess the association between social media use and teenage delinquency and behavior. The researcher carried out all methods using SPSS Application Guide as statistical software. The study revealed that excessive social media use is associated with negative outcomes such as mental health issues, decreased social interactions, and potential impacts on academic performance. Additionally, the level of parental monitoring and communication regarding social media usage was varied, and family conflict related to social media use was evident to some extent. There needs to be more research done to determine the mechanisms that link adolescent social media usage and behavior. Longitudinal studies may help explain what happens and why, as well as suggest any necessary countermeasures.
