perez tabaloc chap 1(comments in parentheses in between sentences)

Within a society, groups and subgroups exist. Categorization of these groups can be made through stereotypes, since stereotyping instantiates the process of categorization, (Tajfel 1969, 1981). (careless use of punctuation)
Ownership and possessions can be a great factor, which affects stereotypes. Some stereotypes arise from ownership of things. For instance, when you own the latest cellphone model, you can be stereotyped to be a techie. It is important that we know how things we own define us. According to Tuan, “We are what we have and possess,” (1980). Stereotypes according to things we own are very common these days. (shift in person, you and we and someone)
(No objectives of the study?)
SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY
This study aims to determine whether Stereotypes on dog ownership occur in the first year and second year UP Cebu college students’ impression formation towards dog owners.
In addition, this study will highlight the common stereotypes on askal and purebred dogs, and how these stereotypes affect one’s impression formation towards the owners.
Furthermore, this study will serve as a mechanism in uncovering whether those common stereotypes that are known today are applied by most people in the community. In addition, this study will also test the validity of common stereotypes towards dog and dog owners in the community. Thus, it will also serve as a revelation to the people in the community whether some common stereotypes that they apply towards dogs and dog owners are valid and are appropriate to be applied in their impression formation towards dogs and dog owners.
(those sound as objectives. Who will benefit your study?who are they and will they benefit?)
