    tradition of Psychology and Philosophy as universal disciplines.
    – Indigenous Psychology (katutubong sikolohiya)
     It is common to the Filipinos who oftentimes are unaware of it: this frame of
    psychological reason or theory can be called principally from language,
    literature, etc (kinagisnang sikolohiya)
     Psychologies or psychological systems worked out by Filipinos with indigenous
    elements as basis. Mainly reactive, resulting from contact with other cultures
    and from acculturative experience. (Hermano Pule, Rizal, Isabelo de los Reyes)

    foreigners

    Indigenization From Within or Cultural
    revalidation
    ■ It is looking for the indigenous psychology from within the culture itself
    and not just clothing a foreign body with a local dress.
    ■ Discovering Sikolohiyang Pilipino is based on assessing historical and
    socio-cultural realities, understanding the local language, unraveling
    Filipino characteristics and explaining them through the eyes of the
    native Filipino.
    ■ These resulted in a body of knowledge which includes indigenous
    concepts and methods, in short, a psychology which is appropriate
    and significant to Filipinos.
