Abstract:
This study aimed to know the practice of Catholic Social Teaching through the core values of concern, responsibility, and service of the faculty members of Sta. Teresa College. Initially, the study aimed to appropriate the Catholic Social Teaching to the Teresian Core Values, which led to the development of an instrument that assessed the extent of the practice of the Teresian Core Values of the faculty members of Sta. Teresa College. The study gave new definitions to each of the Teresian Core Values based on the Catholic Social Teaching and the institution’s culture and practice. 72 teachers from different departments of the institution were determined by Slovin’s formula to be the respondents of the study. The newly developed Teresian Core Values Assessment Scale (TCVAS) was used to determine the extent of the practice of the respondents. Results have shown that there is no significant difference in the extent of the practice of the respondents when grouped according to profile variables. The extent of the practice of the respondents was determined to be of “Great Extent.”
