THE PSYCHOLOGY OF THE FILIPINO


What is Psychology?
Cherry Kendra (2020) defined psychology “as the study of mind and behavior that
encompasses the biological influences (genes and heredity), social pressures (society, peers and
family) and environmental factors that may effect on how a person think and feel.
The Sikolohiyang Filipino (Filipino Psychology) as defined in the Asian Journal of Psychology
(2000) is the psychology that was anchored to the experience, thoughts and orientation of the
Filipino. Thinking about teh Filipino behavior, it was always been analyzed and interpreted in the
light of the western theories which mainly caused of the colonization that happens in our country
back then. Since this theories are inevitably culture bound, the picture of Filipino has been in
accurate, if not distorted.
Rethinking Filipino values based based on Filipino orientation some of the Filipino values loks
negative when it comes to other perspective. some of this are:
❖ BAHALA NA
A filipino attitude that accepts suffering and problem and leaving everything to an end
which also show Filipino determination but with other perspective, the value bahalana is
a fatalistic attitude of resignation, withdrawal from crisis and sharing from personal
responsibility.
❖ HIYA
In Phlippine culture, hiya is generally defined and translated to mean shyness or shame;
which is connected to dignity. in other perspective hiya is the uncomfortable feeling at
accompanies awareness of being in socially unacceptable position or performing socially
unacceptable action it also said that hiya is an ingredient in why Filipino overspend during
fiestas in order to please their visitors to the extent of going into debt.
❖ UTANG NG LOOB
A Filipino Values known as gratitude or solidarity but for others perspective it is a principle
of reciprocating the help of other to an individual. It is a feeling obligation to repay the
debt in future when the benefactor is in need of help. It is also known as showing gratitude
by returning the favor with interest. Looking to the Filipino’s point of view in utang na
loob it is not necessarily burden as the word & debt connotes because in Filipino pattern
of interpersonal relations, there is always an opportunity to return a favor which is not
absolutely obligatory. “ang hindi lumingon sa pinanggalingan ay hindi makakarating
sa paroroonan”
❖ PAKIKISAMA O PAKIKIPAGKAPWA

SY.2022-2023

Pakikisama is a Filipino value that shows smooth interpersonal relations by going along
with the group or the majority decision.

Two Categories of kapwa


❖ Hindi Ibang tao – Means on of us, if one is categorized as hindi-ibang-tao, then you can
expect pakikipagpalagayang-loob (being in-rapport/understanding/ acceptance with), or
pakikisangkot (getting involved), or the highest level of pakikiisa (being one with).
❖ Ibang tao – the interaction can range from pakikitungo (transaction/civility with), to
pakikisalamuha (inter-action with), to pakikilahok (joining/participating), to
pakikibagay (in-conformity with/in-accord with), and to pakikisama (being along with).
THE BAMBOO AND THE FILIPINO
There is a story in Philippine folklore about a mango tree and a bamboo tree. Not being able to
agree as to which the stronger of the two was, they called upon the wind to make the decision. The
wind blew hardest. The mango tree stood fast. It would not yield. It knew it was strong and sturdy.
It would not sway. It was too proud. It was too sure of itself. But finally, its root gave way, and it
tumbled down. The bamboo tree was wiser. It knew it was not as robust as the mango tree. And
so, every time the wind blew, it bent its head gracefully. It made loud protestations, but let the
wind have its way. When finally, the wind got tired of blowing, the bamboo tree still stood in all
its beauty and grace.
The Filipino is like the Bamboo Tree
Filipino knows that they are not strong enough, to withstand the onslaught of superior forces, so
they yield and bend their head gracefully with many loud protestations like a bamboo tree and
survived.
Spaniards
- only much richer in experience and culture
Americans
- winning over the Filipinos to their mode of living and thinking
Japanese
- a storm, like a plague of locusts, like a pestilence — rude, relentless, cruel
- Learned to bow his head low, to “cooperate”
- learned to smile sweetly at them and to thank them graciously for their “benevolence and
magnanimity”

The past is already a dream, and tomorrow is only a vision; but today, well-lived, makes every
yesterday a dream of happiness, and tomorrow is a vision of hope Tomorrow will be only another
day — no winter of discontent. He loses his possessions, there is the land and there is the sea, with
all the riches that one can desire. There is plenty to spar — for friends, for neighbors and for
everyone else.
No wonder that the Filipino can afford to laugh
Enabled the Filipino to shrug his shoulders in times of adversity and say to himself “bahalana”-
often been accused of being indolent and of lacking initiative Just like a bamboo, Filipino are also
graceful and can adapt to any circumstances that come to them, slender and wiry. Filipinos are
nimble and graceful in his movements, his voice and h has the gift of language
In its grace, in its ability to adjust itself to the peculiar and inexplicable whims of fate, the bamboo
tree is truly the expressive and symbolic tree of Filipinos

VALUES FORMATION IN FILIPINO CHILDREN AND THE FILIPINO YOUTH


TODAY

Values Formation in Filipino Children


Filipinos are known as family-oriented person where in young children are often raised in an
extended family with various relatives to do the child-rearing responsibility.

However, certain norms of conduct expected of the child reflect values held by the extended
family. The primary values are dignity (karangalan) which encompasses honour (puri);
trustworthiness (katapatan); extended responsibility (pananagutan).
To be able to safeguard the dignity of the family, obedience/compliance is vital for the Filipino
children because the loss of dignity by a family member will bring shame to the whole family.
One of the responsibilities of a parent is to cultivate in their children the respect for the elderly
and those around them. By teaching the use of “po” and “opo” and the “pagmamano” as a
signed of respect for elders will also lead in the development of humility, courtesy and kindness.

keeping that in mind, teaching those values in children must have a good reinforcement and
controlled punishment that will help the child to absorb those values. Too much punishment that
we give a child will lead to trauma, rebellion or worst.

The Filipino Youth Today


Just our country seeks the help to the youth in solving the problem it faces a s what Dr. Jose P.
Rizal said - “The youth is the hope of our future” - but it seems that the youth themselves
become the major dilemma of the country nowadays.

4
PAMANTASAN NG LUNGSOD NG SAN PABLO

Bachelor of Science Computer Engineering
SY.2022-2023

Filipino youth from the past are proud to be a citizen of our country, easily declaring willingness
to defend the country in case of war. They even put great importance on marriage and family,
friends, education, work, religion, society, and money, but not much importance on recreation,
hobbies, or politics. They are also very sensitive to how parents and children make personal
sacrifices for one other. Not only are they personally religious, but they actively participate in
religious organizations very regularly.
But as time goes by, Filipino youth become rebel and liberated nowadays. They do what they
want to do even it can bring them into trouble. They fail to see what their priorities are and it
brings them to a senseless direction.
There’s an unexpectedly high incidences of youth involvement in criminality, illegal drug use,
and illicit sex. As we watch a new program most of the incidences that happens involves Filipino
youth. There as some individuals ranging from 14-24 betrothed themselves to drugs, alcohols
and smoking. There are also some cases of teenage pregnancy which leads to abortion because of
unpreparedness.
There are some youths that are not involve in those acts, instead are involved in working at the
very young age because of financial problem and one of the most noticeable differences of youth
today and the youth from the past is the engagement in technology of the youth nowadays.
Because of this, they prefer to use virtual interaction messaging, e-mail, internet chat, and surfing
rather that the personal interaction in which the past generation of youth use. Most of the youth
today are all exposed to social media, where in most of their time are expend facing their gadgets
instead of doing things they need to do. There are some negative effects of being “plugged in” in
social media which bring enormous effect on youths nowadays. Because the social interaction
comes overwhelmingly online on youth nowadays rather than face to face, there are some cases
wherein a youth shows severe lack of social skills. They are often more comfortable with
technology than they are talking with other people. They have not learned how to deal with
interpersonal situations and get to know other people behind the screen. Observing some of the
Filipino youth today, their self-esteem in expressing themselves in public is low and most their
ideas and true selves are put or shown through social media. This is because they are so
overwhelmed by the benefits brought to them by social media and comes to the juncture that they
become addicted in dealing themselves with it.

There are three major reasons why teens are so committed in social media

• the first one is the parents are unaware of the issues involved in the online connections
because of the gap on the knowledge on the use of technology.
• the next reason is some parents don’t want to interfere in their children’s social lives.
Some parents let their own children to explore and face the world on their own. They
tend to do this for their children to be able to stand and rely on their own.
• and lastly parents are afraid to take a stand
In spite of the negative effects brought by social media, there are still some many cases that
using social media is really helpful to our lives.
Youth nowadays use social media to check or get a news from friends and family and see it as
news they might well have gotten someplace else. Thus, social media results in teens being more

well-informed about national and global news than they would be. As we talked about the
modern teenage lifestyle, social media has become part of it. It makes life so much easier and
much more efficient. It has become an essential part of our communication culture that cannot be
taken away easily, because we are so dependent on it. Without social media we wouldn’t be able
to connect with the people the way we do now. No matter what the situations a Filipino youth
face in his life, they must be responsible of their acts whatever situation he has. Guided by the
cliché of Dr. J.P. Rizal, each and every one must be involved and empowered, and avoid a path
in the hardships face by the country. Filipino youth must make an action to prove that we, youth,
are the hope of our nation.

Filipino values and Education

The Value of Orgullo Nacional

The Importance of "Orgullo Nacional," or National Pride One of the most troubling issues facing
our nation is the decline in Filipino children's sense of national pride. Only 12% of young
Filipinos want to remain Filipinos, while the majority of them want to become Americans or
Europeans. One institution that cannot be blamed for our youth's lack of national pride is the
educational system

➢ American Education: The actual objective of American education in the Philippines


was to achieve economic sufficiency, promote democracy through enlightened citizens,
establish English as a common language, provide universal elementary education, and
establish English as a common language. They discovered that colonization was most
successful through education and body shaving. Religion was disallowed from being
shown in state funded schools.
➢ Technology and National Development Any nation's progress and development depend
on science and technology. In any society, technology plays a crucial role in the creation
of wealth, enhancement of quality of life, and genuine economic growth and
transformation.

Pros of Technology and development

1. Increase Production: Technology has considerably increased effectiveness and helped


businesses across many industries. It saves lots of time for everyone from automakers

2.Easily Accessible: Technology has made our life very easy. We can access many things and
services by staying at our home. Whether you need to do shopping, searching for a job, all these
things available without leaving your home.

6
PAMANTASAN NG LUNGSOD NG SAN PABLO
Brgy. San Jose San Pablo City
Bachelor of Science Computer Engineering
SY.2022-2023

3. Increased Job Opportunities Development of technology has created a big number of new
jobs in the market. In this techno-friendly age, a new group of employers is needed to work
efficiently that can maintain and develop the new technology in homes and businesses.

4. Different Learning Methods Implementing technology into the classroom enables students to
explore and access to different ways of effective learning. It may possible that some students learn
in a lecture environment, others might be learning better from educational software.

5. Better Communication Get in touch with your friends and family now becomes very easy. You
can talk from one corner of the world to another. It creates an amazing environment and a better
understanding between different cultures. There are a number of interesting ways to communicate.

Cons of Technology and development

1.Social Divide: Implementing technology is expensive in many ways, and be up-to-date with the
latest technology is impossible for everyone.

2.Make People Lazy: Technology made everything easier in different ways, people are slowly
getting forget how to do things in the old-fashioned way (hard work).

3. Can be a Distraction Using technology in the classroom affects learning. When students use
tools and technologies in the classroom they might be distracted via things like gaming, social
media, browsing etc. Students are often seeing walking with looking down at their phones rather
than communicating friends around them. The sad truth is that students are becoming the victims
of technology.

4. Privacy When we use technology in our daily life, privacy is a big issue. It is very important
that personal information and data be safe. Different apps and tools ensure privacy measures but
are it enough to the be safe from potential privacy risk.

“In the end, we can say that technology has its advantages and disadvantages. It’s up to the
users to decide whether the good overshadows the bad. The most important thing is that how we
can get best of technology.”

Braindrain

Brain drain is a slang term that indicates a substantial emigration or migration of individuals. A
brain drain can result from turmoil within a nation, the existence of favorable professional
opportunities in other countries, or a desire to seek a higher standard of living.

7
PAMANTASAN NG LUNGSOD NG SAN PABLO
Brgy. San Jose San Pablo City
Bachelor of Science Computer Engineering
SY.2022-2023

Cause of Brain Drain in the Philippines:

1. Economic opportunities, including new and better jobs, higher standards of living, access
to housing and health care
2. Political strife and instability
3. Persecution based on religion, gender, or sexuality

Effects of Brain Drain

Brain drain can have major consequences. The effects are felt not only in the area where the brain
drain occurs but also where the brain gain (where individuals move to) takes place. And it can
often have a chain reaction.

Areas affected by brain drain end up with a dearth of human capital. Professionals who go
elsewhere end up leaving a large hole to fill—one that isn't always easy to fill. Consider medical
professionals in developing nations who move to parts of the developed world for better
opportunities. There may not be enough (qualified) people to replace them when they leave, which
affects the quality of health care for those left behind.

The Formation of the Philippine Society

SOCIAL CLASS

Social class, also called class, are groupings of individuals in a hierarchy, usually based on wealth,
educational attainment, occupation, income, and membership in a subculture or social network.

3 SOCIAL CLASSES:

M
UPPER CLASS

MIDDLE CLASS

LOWER CLASS

8
PAMANTASAN NG LUNGSOD NG SAN PABLO

SY.2022-2023

UPPER CLASS

Upper class in modern societies is the social class composed of people who hold the highest social
status, usually are the wealthiest members of class society, and wield the greatest political power.

MIDDLE CLAS

Middle Class a class of people in the middle of a social hierarchy. Its usage has often been vague
whether defined in terms of occupation, income, education or social status. The definition by any
author is often chosen for political connotations.

LOWER CLASS

The lower class consists of those at the bottom of the socioeconomic hierarchy who have low
education, low income, and low status jobs.

SOCIAL JUSTICE

Social justice is the relation of balance between individuals and society measured by comparing
distribution of wealth differences, from personal liberties to fair privilege opportunities.

LEGAL JUSTICE

Legal Justice means rule of law and not rule of any person. It includes two things: that all men are
equal before law, and that law is equally applicable to all. It provides legal security to all. Law
does not discriminate between the rich and the poor

DISTRIBUTIVE JUSTICE

Distributive justice is concerned with the fair allocation of resources among diverse members of a
community. Fair allocation typically takes into account the total amount of goods to be distributed,
the distributing procedure, and the pattern of distribution that results.

Human Values for Rural Development

Educational standing among the people is low, including the farmers. Rural development is
intended not merely to increase the income of the rural areas or to create business managers out of
farmers; the real intent of rural development is to create human beings, human farmers, human
Filipino farmers who have lakas-ng-loob (courage), kusang-loob (initiative), utang-na-loob (sense
of gratitude) and tapat-na-loob (liouesty).

Towards a Filipino Political and Social System

POLITICAL SYSTEM

A political system defines the process for making official government decisions. It is usually
compared to the legal system, economic system, cultural system, and other social systems.

SOCIAL SYSTEM

A complex set of interacting human relationship.

All parts are mutually interdependent.

Engages in exchanges with its environment (open system).

Development for the Filipinos

Filipinos aspire for work-life balance, a comfortable, secure and peaceful life. This long-term
aspiration—the AmBisyon Natin 2040—we learned from a nationwide survey conducted in late
2015.

This was on about the time we adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, and
subsequently crafted the Philippine Development Plan (PDP) 2017-2022. We soon recognized that
we need to transform our world by ensuring sustainable development and leaving no one behind
in order to live the life we want.

Sustainable Development Goals (SDG)

Plan and Goals:

▪ For quality education


▪ For decent work
▪ To reduce inequality
▪ For climate action
▪ For peace, justice, and strong institutions
▪ To ensure effectiveness of partnerships

Technology Transfer

Technology transfer, also called transfer of technology, is the process of transferring technology
from the person or organization that owns or holds it to another person or organization.

FILIPINO VALUES, WOMEN RELATIONSHIP

THE FILIPINA WORKER

Traditionally, rural and tribal women do all the household-related chores. Heavy work that requires
more strength is done by the husband. Now, the chore work is evenly distributed with the men
doing just as much work as the women. The scope of their functions includes cooking, cleaning,
teaching the children, washing clothes, repairs, budgeting, etc.

In general, Filipino women find pride in their work. They do not find themselves alienated from
their chores because they work with, around, and for their families

This family-oriented mindset gives them a sense of dignity and responsibility. The family and the
children are the primary priority some Filipino women's life. In addition to doing housework, the
contemporary role of a Filipino wife today is to provide financial support in the household by
seeking employment in higher-earning occupations which then expands the Filipino female work
outside the household.

WOMEN EXECUTIVES

Compared to other countries, Filipino women have gained and enjoyed equal rights with men.
They have become presidents, senators, congresswomen, and mayors. Filipino women have
proven that they are capable of carrying out responsibilities and tasks as well as their male

12

counterparts. In the 2010 Senatorial election, there were 14 women who ran out of 61 candidates
(23.0%), of which two entered the top 12 winning senators (16.7%). The number of women who
engage in politics are smaller compare to their male counterparts.

Philippine women are rediscovering their strengths. Filipino women had been successful in
implementing policies by becoming executive staff members, advisers to politicians, and as
advocates within non-governmental organizations.

Modern-day Filipino women are making strides in electoral politics by initiating more female-
oriented programs. They are performing well as leaders, although generally, Filipino women still
often earn political seats by having fathers and husbands who are politically connected, a "dynasty
system" that hinders other Filipino women from joining the electoral process.

Sex

➢ Sexuality in the Philippines encompasses sexual behavior, sexual practices, and sexual
activities exhibited by men and women of the Philippines past and the present. It
covers courtship strategies for attracting partners for physical and emotional intimacy,
sexual contact, sexual reproduction, building a family, and other forms of individual
interactions or interpersonal relationships, as set and dictated by their culture and
tradition, religion, beliefs, values and moral convictions, psychology, foreign influences,
and other related factors.
➢ As a predominantly Christian country, the Philippines considers that the only sexual
behavior morally and legally acceptable and appropriate is heterosexual intercourse within
a monogamous marriage, with the exception of polygamous marriage as practiced by some
Filipino minority groups and by Muslim communities in the Mindanao, southern, and
southwestern regions of the Philippines, as long as the men of these population are
financially capable of supporting their multiple wives.

Historical perspective

Indigenous culture

Before the arrival of the first group of Spaniards in the Philippine islands on the shores
of Cebu. the ancient native Filipinos already had their own sexual and relationship practices. One
of them is the carrying out of polygamy. Early Filipino tribal men had five or more wives, a marital
ethnic norm of the archipelago at the time.

20th century

the Filipino Ifugao people of northern central Philippines already had well-established values
regarding marriage and sexuality. An example of these is their custom of equating the size of a
woman's breast and the wideness of her hips with the price of the dowry

Spanish

As a part of the process of converting ancient native Filipinos into Catholicism, the Spaniard
missionaries forbade the use of penile instruments, and promoted Christian ideas of the wife's
fidelity to her husband, premarital virginity, the notion of a woman's role as a "nurturing mother",
and the reverence of the Virgin Mary. Catholic influence

American Protestant influence

After 1898, Protestants from the United States brought and shared their attitudes on sexuality with
the people of the Philippines, which were based on the doctrines of Judaism and Protestant
Christianity. The branching out of this American-introduced Protestantism led to the establishment
of similar restrictions and rules regarding sexuality as imposed by the Filipino founders of
the Philippine Independent Church and the Iglesias ni Cristo or "Church of Christ".

Sex industry

➢ As of 2009, one source estimated that there were 800,000 women working as prostitutes in
the Philippines.
➢ Prostitution caters to local customers and foreigners. Media attention tends to focus on
those areas catering to sex tourism, primarily through bars staffed by bargirls. Cities where
there is a high incidence of prostitution are Angeles City, Olongapo, Subic Bay, and Pasay,

Pornography

➢ Based on the Revised Penal Code of the Philippines and Republic Act No.
7610, pornography is defined as doctrines, publications, and shows that are immoral,
obscene, and indecent. Philippine legislations
➢ penalize involvement in these activities, including the abuse, exploitation, prostitution, and
discrimination of children

Marriage

➢ Chinese influence runs deep and the majority of Filipinas adhere to its simple social dictum,
“Get married at a marriageable age.” Marriage is considered the natural conclusion of a
stable heterosexual relationship. Recently, however, Filipinos have started to replace their
old-fashioned social concepts with ones that recognize that the right to remain single is as
much a personal right as the right to marry.
➢ Whereas the legal age for voting is 21 years for both males and females, the legal age for
marriage is 21 for males and 18 for females.
➢ In the Muslim community, the parents of a girl between ages 14 and 16 may betroth her to
an older man.
➢ Christian community, the courts do not consider pregnancy a valid motive to grant
permission for the marriage of a minor.
➢ Legislation has also abolished the possibility of reparatory marriage; in the past a person
accused of rape or forceful abduction could avoid punishment by marrying the victim.

➢ In the southern end of the archipelago, where the majority of the Muslims live, a dowry is
agreed on before a formal marriage arrangement is signed. The dowry, given by the bride’s
parents to the groom, may be a large sum of money, property, or a sizable wedding present.
➢ Love marriages with parental approval—as opposed to arranged marriages—are the norm
although parents often play a role in choosing marriage partners for their children.
➢ Marriages have traditionally been monogamous although in some places, particularly
Muslim and tribal areas, men have had more than one wife.
➢ Virginity has traditionally been valued, particularly in the countryside. If a young man
decides he wants to marry a particular girl, he or his parents visit the young woman’s house
and offer a gift.
➢ Marriage is a civil ceremony that is conducted city offices.
➢ A religious ceremony also is performed.
➢ Arranged marriages have not been part of Filipino life.
➢ However, men are expected to marry and if a man has not married by his late twenties,
female relatives begin introducing him to potential brides.
➢ The median age for marriage is twenty-two. Young professionals wait until their late
twenties to marry, and engagements of five to seven years are not uncommon. After this
initial visit the parents of the couple meet.
➢ During this period, the couple becomes established in jobs, pays for the education of
younger siblings, and acquires household items.
➢ A woman who reaches the age of thirty-two without marrying is considered past the age
for marriage.
➢ Women believe that marriage to a wealthy man or a foreigner will guarantee happiness.
➢ Divorce is illegal, but annulment is available for the dissolution of a marriage. Reasons
for annulment include physical incapacity, physical violence, or pressure to change one's
religious or political beliefs. Interfaith marriages are rare.

be taught to children at a young age.

HOW TO DISCIPLINE FILIPINOS

➢ TRADITIONAL

to discipline and punish their kids: hand spanking, pinching, hitting with an object,
twisting the child's ears, pulling their hair, slapping the face or head, shackling, or
shaking.
➢ MODERN
• Discipline is a complex issue that cannot be solved by a single solution. It is
important to note that discipline should start at home and should be taught to
children at a young age.
• According to an article from Business Mirror, Filipinos follow protocols such as
washing hands regularly, wearing face masks and face shields in public and
observing socialdistancing due to the “bayanihan spirit that has been part of our
culture”.
➢ In research of the different parenting styles in the Philippines, it was found that
most Filipino parents still believe in corporal punishment as a way to discipline
their children. This parenting style is considered “normal” in our society. Parents
today who practice this would often reason, “Pinalo rin ako noong bata ako”.

FILIPINO VALUES AND HONESTY

and virtuous attributes such as integrity, truthfulness, and straightforwardness, including
straightforwardness of conduct, along with the absence of lying, cheating, theft, etc. Furthermore,
honesty means being trustworthy, loyal, fair, and sincere.

It is valued in many ethnic and religious cultures. "Honesty is the best policy" is a proverb
of Benjamin Franklin; however, the quote "Honesty is the first chapter in the book of wisdom" is
attributed to Thomas Jefferson, as used in a letter to Nathaniel Macon.

Many children think honesty means you "don't tell a lie"-- and speaking the truth is a big part of
being honest. But honesty means more than "not lying." Honesty means your actions are truthful
too. ... So, honesty is about both speaking and acting truthfully.

"Honesty is when you speak the truth and act truthfully."

How to Demonstrate Honesty

● Think before you speak.

● Say what you mean and mean what you say.

● Bend over backward to communicate in an open and honest fashion.

● Simplify your statements so that everyone clearly understands you.

● Tell it like it is rather than sugarcoating it.

● If you have a personal bias or a conflict of interest, make it known.

● Tell people the rationale behind your decisions so that your intent is understood.

● If something is misinterpreted, quickly correct the record.

● Don't shoot the messenger when someone tells you the truth.

● Willingly accept responsibility by admitting a mistake or error in judgment, in a timely fashion.

● Hold people accountable when their words do not match their actions.

THE VALUE OF SHAME ("HIYA") TO FILIPINOS

➢ Hiya
• Filipinos are very sensitive to personal affront. They try, as much as possible, to
avoid feeling "hiya", a painful emotion or deep shame arising from a realization of
having failed to live up to the standards of the society such as a breach of social
norms
• "Hiya" is the value that regulates the Filipinos social behavior. Just as one is very
careful not to be subjected to embarrassment or "mapahiya" one must also make it
a point not to cause another person's embarrassment.

It is the currency applied within the society, controlling and motivating a person's social behavior

Public ridicule, or to be censured openly, or to fail to do what is expected of one, is to suffer hiya,
a loss of self-esteem.

26
PAMANTASAN NG LUNGSOD NG SAN PABLO
Brgy. San Jose San Pablo City
Bachelor of Science Computer Engineering
SY.2022-2023

Hiya is a controlling element in the Filipino society. A person's behaviour is restricted by his sense
of "hiya" while public behaviour is censured, or approved of, by hiya. For example, an employee
would refrain from asking questions from his supervisor even if he is not quite sure what to do
because of hiya; a party host may end up spending more than she can afford for a party, driven by
hiya, a fear of being perceived in a negative way.

One's self-esteem goes up and down, depending on the value you place on your own hiya in public.
Like an employee dismissed from his job may react violently because of "hiva" or a workmate
may not openly disagree with you even if he feels strongly against your opinion out of "hiya".

This concept would be meaningless to a westerner who values individualism and non-conformism
may because his behavior is controlled more by individual sense of guilt and less by group censure.
To a Filipino, to lose the support of his kinsmen is to become a social outcast.

This Filipino trait has to be correlated with "Amor Propio" another important Filipino trait.

Amor propio - it is the individuals highly emotional reaction to protect his honor and dignity when
they are threatened or questioned and to retaliate...

Amor propio is means self-love or self-regard. We Filipinos value self-respect. It is related to


dangal, which means dignity.

WHAT IS PAKIKISAMA?

➢ Pakikisama is a typical trait of a Filipino, in its simplest sense meaning “getting along with
others”
➢ Pakikisama also entails a genuine intrinsic appreciation of togetherness. Group harmony

one another.
