Abstract

Student performers who would like to be part of the performing arts group already possess the skills required for them to be part of the group. Skills, however, are not enough to become a good performer. Rather, these should be complemented by a positive attitude. Self-control, sense of responsibility and respect for others are the predictors of performing skills of a performing artists and predictor of personal excellence in performance. With that, it is the purpose of the study to measure the self-control, sense of responsibility and respect for others of the performing artists. For it will be used as the baseline to the operation plan of the HEI Performing Arts Office. If performers stay longer in the performing arts group, their state of self-control as well as their sense of responsibility and respect for others, progresses positively. Performing artists in the HEI uphold the value of self-control, sense of responsibility, and respect for others.

According to Cassidy, as is extracted from the book of Lopez et al [1] entitled Music, Arts, Physical Education, and Health, any action that a person wants to achieve that is considered his or her best action should be paired with a positive attitude and not merely with scientific knowledge or skills

Summary

Introduction

Student performers who would like to be part of the performing arts group already possess the skills required for them to be part of the group. Skills are not enough to become a good performer Rather, these should be complemented by a positive attitude. These should be complemented by a positive attitude This means that a performer should possess the following desirable emotional traits: a) very good self-control; b) sense of responsibility, and c) respect for others. According to Tracy [3], people cannot control what development they will undergo after joining a group, but they can control their outlook towards such development. This suggests that student performers should learn to master changes rather than tolerate changes in mastering them. It is the responsibility of student performers to maintain a balance between their role as students in an institution, and their responsibilities as members of the performing arts group
