    [abstract] => The general objective of this research was to determine the extent to which current modes of public information dissemination influence good governance and citizen participation in Lucban, Quezon. The study examined the demographic profile of respondents, their level of awareness regarding information dissemination, the effectiveness of various information dissemination modes, and the influence of these modes on governance and citizens engagement. The study tested the null hypotheses that there is no significant relationship between demographic profiles and awareness, and between dissemination modes and their influence on governance and engagement. Statistical treatments included descriptive statistics, chi-square tests, correlation analysis, and regression analysis. The study employed a mixed-method approach, combining quantitative surveys and qualitative interviews. 
The findings revealed a diverse demographic profile among respondents, indicating a wide range of information needs and preferences. Respondents demonstrated a generally high level of awareness regarding information dissemination in governance processes, suggesting that demographic factors did not significantly hinder awareness. Statistical analysis showed a very weak positive correlation between gender and knowledge of governance processes, with most other demographic factors showing no significant relationships with awareness. Digital media, particularly social media, emerged as the most effective mode of information dissemination, while traditional media and other modes were perceived as neutral or less effective. Respondents generally acknowledged a positive influence of information dissemination on good governance and citizen engagement, although concerns remained about actual increases in participation. Statistical analysis indicated very weak positive correlations between traditional media, interpersonal communication, LED walls, and various governance and engagement variables.
Based on these findings, the study concluded that demographic factors do not significantly predict the level of awareness regarding information dissemination, and current modes of information dissemination do not consistently demonstrate a significant influence on good governance and citizen engagement. While digital media shows potential for greater influence, the overall weak correlations support the acceptance of the null hypotheses, indicating that factors beyond demographics and current dissemination modes may play a more substantial role in shaping awareness, governance, and engagement outcomes.
