After 35 years, Sikolohiyang Pilipino gets world respect
After 35 years, Sikolohiyang Pilipino gets world respect

Filed Under: Children, Culture (general)
GOOD SAMARITANS have started reaching out to children who are caught in a violent conflict or a debilitating cataclysm, using a psychological tool designed by a Filipino 35 years ago.
Dr. Rogelia Pe-Pua, head of University of New South Wales School for Social Sciences and International Studies in Australia, says donors used to ship toys to these children to help them cope with trauma.
But the toys were often too strange to them. Pe-Pua says many ended up tucked in shelves or wrapped in closets because they are too expensive to be smashed at play time.
Some foreign experts shrugged off this phenomenon, suggesting instead that the donors teach the children how to play with them, she says.
According to her, there are even stories about a Japanese expert who injects the children with happy enzymes.
Those days have passed.
Trauma programs
The United Nations Children's Fund (Unicef) now uses a program framework that puts value in culture, indigenous identity and the environment to help explain or define behavior that is peculiar to a certain country or race, Pe-Pua says.
Elizabeth Protacio-De Castro, a Filipino consultant, reviewed the trauma programs of 16 counties before coming out with a template that tells Unicef who the child beneficiary is, how culture shapes him, how the environment abuses him and what he truly needs to help him cope.
Pe-Pua says Unicef uses a mechanism known to the teachers and students as Sikolohiyang Pilipino, a 35-year-old academic movement that is not simply a Filipinized-version of mainstream psychology.
When psychologist Virgilio Enriquez founded the movement in 1975, he encouraged students to write in Filipino to help them discover indigenous perspectives about life, scientific knowledge and social relationships, which are lost when behavior is couched in a foreign language or theory.
The country's psychologists learned that their counterparts abroad had started adapting Enriquez's methodology when they assembled in November for the 35th Sikolohiyang Pilipino conference at the University of the Philippines Baguio.
Indigenous psychology
The world now interprets Sikolohiyang Pilipino, or simply SP, as indigenous psychology, which allows professionals to see the world from the perspective of the people they serve, says Pe-Pua, one of the founding members of the Pambansang Samahan sa Sikolohiyang Pilipino (PSSP or the National Association for Filipino Psychology).
Pe-Pua, a former UP professor, conducted a two-month study of 20 academics this year to determine the progress made by the SP. She discovered that the methodology had become a multidisciplinary tool for various professions in the country as it was originally intended.
An essay, published online by the National Historical Institute, states that Enriquez defined Philippine psychology as the embodiment of the scientific study of ethnicity, society and culture of a people and the formal application to psychological practice of core knowledge rooted in a people's ethnic heritage and consciousness.
According to Enriquez, the captive Filipino mind is sold to the idea that Filipinos do not have any indigenous religion and that the religion of the country was borrowed from Spain and America. He further explained that denying the facts of a people's history is tantamount to denying their memory. A people without a memory of their past is also deprived of their future, it points out.
Community advocacy
Pe-Pua says her survey indicates that the SP helped a prominent psychologist excel in community advocacy. "Once you become part of a community you intend to serve, you can't help but search for native concepts and explanations which you must use to understand behavior and phenomenon in a village," she says.
The SP helped another academic design intervention programs for maternal health and reproductive health, which value a client's cultural background and pakikipag-kapwa (sense of community) and treat participants as kapwa tao (fellow beings), she says.
The Unicef framework for children caught in conflict areas or cataclysms best defines how far the SP has reshaped world view, she says.
The shift in perspective may mean that donors will soon send typhoon-displaced children basketballs, dolls and yo-yos that they know how to play with rather than toys that require engineering backgrounds to put together, she says.

100 Most Popular 20th Century Psychologists
Study ranks the top 20th century psychologists
July/August 2002, Vol 33, No. 7
Print version: page 28
Psychologists were put to a popularity contest in a new study that appears in the Review of General Psychology (Vol. 6, No. 2), which ranks 99 of the 100 most eminent psychologists of the 20th century.
B.F. Skinner topped the list, followed by Jean Piaget, Sigmund Freud and Albert Bandura.
The rankings were based on the frequency of three variables: journal citation, introductory psychology textbook citation and survey response. Surveys were sent to 1,725 members of the American Psychological Society, asking them to list the top psychologists of the century.
Researchers also took into account whether the psychologists had a National Academy of Sciences membership, were elected as APA president or received the APA Distinguished Scientific Contributions Award, and whether their surname was used as an eponym.
"I was not surprised by most of the names who made it toward the top of the list," says lead researcher Steven J. Haggbloom, PhD, psychology department chair at Western Kentucky University. "But there are some notable names not on the list."
For example, psychologist Hermann Ebbinghaus, the first to experiment with human learning and memory, didn't make it.
Omissions like that are why researchers followed the idea of researcher Eugene Garfield, who did a Top 100 list in 1977 but left off No. 100. So, No. 100 might be the many great psychologists that someone could make a compelling case to include, Haggbloom says.

The Science of Happiness - An Experiment in Gratitude, ikaw masaya ka ba?
Wow it seems watching this relieved me of my migraine. Going to the you tube site and reading through the comments is insightful - how did the experiment measure happiness, etc, etc.
But whatever the measure was, for many more than a million who watched and could relate and resonate to the emotion and sentiments of the subjects I think the measure is not that important. They vicariously felt happy and experiencing such happiness is great and wonderful.
So whom have you made happy lately, whom have you told good things, whom have you made feel they are important in your life?
Perhaps for readers of this blog they are happy and have now time to watch this video after knowing that the Licensure Exam for Psychometrician is now postponed for October 2014. So more time to prepare and keep always the happiness... and be grateful to life and everyone else important in your life.

After noting the need for indigenous scale construction efforts in the Philippines, the current article focuses on the development and current status of two multidimensional measures of Filipino personality constructs, plus two projects that are investigating indigenous Filipino personality structure. In a final section, we note apparent convergences between the personality dimensions identified and assessed by these four projects and consider how these dimensions might relate to purported universal dimensions of personality (i.e., the "Big Five" dimensions).Reviews of the status of psychological measurement in the Philippines have highlighted two related problems: the questionable applicability of foreign-made tests and the dearth of locally developed tests (e.g., Bulatao & Guthrie, 1968; Carlota & Lazo, 1987; Church, 1987; Guanzon, 1985; Ramos,1977). Strong misgivings have been expressed about the relevance to Filipino behavior of the theories underlying foreign-made tests, and researchers and scientist-practitioners have been urged to develop indigenous tests. The restiveness of the Philippine academic community over the need for more culturally sensitive theorizing was reflected in the Sikolohiyang Pilipino (FilipinoPsychology) movement that began in the 1970s. Enriquez (1994) described Sikolohiyang Pilipino as rooted in its Malayo-Polynesian and Asian heritage, a psychology based on the experience, ideas,and orientation of the Filipino, with psychology defined on the basis of categories drawn from the Filipino language and culture. Local test development was thus welcomed as a cross-cultural indigenization effort in which culture is treated as source rather than target (Enriquez, 1979).Discussions of indigenous psychological concepts and research methods that have emerged as a result of the Sikolohiyang Pilipino movement can be found in a number of sources (e.g., Aganon &David, 1985; Enriquez, 1992; Pe-Pua, 1982).In a recent effort to document and organize existing work on psychological test development in the Philippines, both published and unpublished, Ortega and Guanzon-Lapena (1997) observed an upsurge in academic interest in the development of indigenous psychological measures. Whereas in the 1950s a mere handful of tests in educational psychology were locally developed, Ortega andGuanzon-Lapena's (1997) current listing includes more than 200 locally developed measures on a wide variety of Filipino characteristics, for example, katalinuhan (intelligence), pagkarelihiyoso(religiousness), kaasalang sekswal (sexual behavior), kakayahang magdala ng tensyon (ability tocope with stress), pagkamabahala (anxiety), kahustuhang emosyonal (emotional maturity),pakikipag-ugnayan (adjustment-maladjustment), Filipino management style, and gender sensitivity,to name a few.This article focuses on the development and current status of two multidimensional measures of Filipino personality constructs--the Panukat ng Pagkataong Pilipino (PPP; Carlota, 1985) and thePanukat ng Ugali at Pagkatao (PUP; Enriquez & Guanzon-Lapenia, 1997)--plus two projects that areinvestigating indigenous Filipino personality structure (Church, Reyes, Katigbak, & Grimm, 1997;Katigbak, Church, & Akamine, 1996). In a final section, we summarize hypothesized convergencesbetween the personality dimensions identified and assessed by the different approaches...
