Despite the multitude of studies examining the conditions of adolescents in Philippine orphanages, there was a noticeable absence of qualitative research on their coping strategies.

This study sought to fill the gap in existing literature by (1) Exploring the actual life experiences of orphaned Filipino adolescents who lived in an orphanage setting; (2) Exploring the coping strategies employed by orphaned Filipino adolescents residing in an orphanage; (3) Identifying the factors that influenced the development and utilization of coping strategies among these adolescents; and (4) Identifying how the orphaned Filipino adolescents perceived the outcomes of adapting their coping strategies. This academic paper conducted an in-depth interview process employing a semi-structured interview guide designed by the researcher. Utilizing thematic analysis, the study unveiled the different aspects of the participants implementing their adapted coping strategies.
