Handbuk NG Sikolohiyang Pilipino Bolyum 1 Perspektibo at of Filipino Aoepatunay
“Patunay ang Handbuk na bukas ang Sikolohiyang Pilipino sa pagbabago, sa iba’t ibang lapit, metodo, at wika. Puno
ito ng ‘classics’ habang nagtatakda ng ‘modern classics’ na posibleng panimula o pagtutuloy ng pagdidiskurso sa SP sa
mga darating na panahon. (The Handbook is proof that Filipino psychology is open to changes, to different approaches,
methods, and languages. It is full of ‘classics’ while creating ‘modern classics’ that could be the beginning or continuation
of SP discourses in the future.)” —Pambansang Samahan sa Sikolohiyang Pilipino

Filipino psychology is the psychology born out of the experience, thought, and orientation of Filipinos. It is based on
Filipino culture, language, perspective, society, and history. It is systematic and scientific in gathering information
through the use of indigenous methods that are appropriate to Filipino experience. It has wide application in different
aspects of Philippine life. Filipino psychology is a good example of an indigenous psychology in the world; in fact, it is
one of the indigenous psychologies with a long history and significant achievements. This collection of articles aims
to be an important reference material to further develop the scholarship and teaching in psychology. Almost half of
the articles are in English and the other half are in Filipino.
