(2017). PWeDe: Empowering Filipino Youths with Chronic Illness <br /> Through a Dedicated Online Platform, Unpublished Undergraduate Thesis, University <br /> of the Philippines College of Mass Communication. <br /> This study analyzed the usage of online platforms such as social media and other <br /> Internet sites by five (5) chronically ill Filipino youths for the seeking of psychosocial <br /> support, in line with developing a prototype platform designed primarily for young <br /> Filipino audiences living with chronic illness. This platform was modeled after “The <br /> Mighty” (http://themighty.com), an online content aggregation platform built upon <br /> voices from within the disability and mental health community. Concepts in usability <br /> evaluation and Everett Rogers’ Diffusion of Innovations Theory were utilized to analyze <br /> the attitudes and perceptions of participant-respondents towards online platforms and <br /> “The Mighty,” which served as a guide for the execution of an actual working website. <br /> Keywords: chronic illness, Filipino, youths, online platforms, Internet media<br /> <br /> [http://iskwiki.upd.edu.ph/flipbook/viewer/?fb=2011-18140-Guerra,- View Thesis]<br /> <br /> [[Category: CMC Thesis]][[Category:Theses]][[Category: Department of Broadcast Communication]][[Category:2017 Thesis]]</div>
