TAMA O MALI

1. Ayon kay Enriquez, ang pinaka-angkop na lugar para sa mga sikolohistang nasa ibang bansa na gustong pag-aralan
ang sikolohista sa kontekstong Pilipino ay marapat na pag-aralan ito sa lugar kung nasaan sila sa kasalukuyan.

SAGOT: Mali
PAGPAPALIWANAG:

There are better interpretations of Enriquez's view than this. According to his theory of "Pilipino Psychology," the
Philippines is the most appropriate place for psychologists abroad who want to study psychology in the Filipino context.
This is because the experience and context of Filipinos are an essential part of understanding Filipino Psychology, and it
can only be obtained in the Philippines.

2. Ang SIkolohiyang Pilipino ay pansamantalang hindi inilimit lamang sa mga pakahulugan na bunga ng
karansan, kaisipan at oryentasyong Pilipino.
SAGOT: Mali
PAGPAPALIWANAG:

In this statement, Enriquez does not mention that Filipino Psychology is temporarily not limited to the meanings
resulting from Filipinos' experience, thought, and orientation. Instead, this is the primary goal of Filipino
Psychology - to understand and study the experiences and thoughts of Filipinos to gain a deeper understanding of
their psychological processes.

3. Mas malalim ang pakahulugan ng "taumbahay" kaysa sa mga salitang "tao sa bahay."
SAGOT: Tama
PAGPAPALIWANAG:

This is correct. According to Virgilio Enriquez, the founder of Filipino Psychology, the word "taumbahay" has a deeper
meaning than the words "people at home." The term "taumbahay" refers to an individual who is not just a person who
hangs out at home but a whole person who is stamped into a Filipino home or family.

4. Ang mga salitang "saling-pusa, "pamasak-butas", at "balik-bayan" ay hindi mga katutubong konsepto bagkus ito
ay mula sa Kanluraning bansa.
SAGOT: Tama
PAGPAPALIWANAG:

This is correct. According to Virgilio Enriquez, the words "saling-pusa," "pamasak-butas," and "balik-bayan" are concepts that
draw from the English language and are not native words in Philippine culture. These are words taken from foreign languages
that have become part of the Filipino language.

5. Ang mga konsepto tulad ng "hiya", "utang na loob," at "pakikisama" ay tumutukoy lamang sa oryentasyong Pilipino
na walang bahid banyaga.
SAGOT: Tama
PAGPAPALIWANAG:

This is correct. According to Virgilio Enriquez, the concepts of "hiya," "outang na loob", and "pakikimasa" are indigenous
concepts that define the orientation of Filipinos and have no foreign taint.

6. Ang paggamit ng foreign terms sa social science ay sadyang nakakaimpress kaya hinihikaya't na ito'y madalas gamitin sa
pag-aaral ng SIkolohiyang Pilipino.

SAGOT: Mali
PAGPAPALIWANAG:

This false. According to Virgilio Enriquez, foreign words in the study of Filipino Psychology should not be used to impress or
be outdated. Instead, it is vital to use indigenous concepts and languages to understand the culture and experience of Filipinos
better.

7. Ang paggamit ng maramihang kultura, maramihang wika, at maramihang metodo ay masasabing isang mahalagang
pamamaraan sa pag-aasam na magkaroon ng unibersal ng Sikohiyang Pilipino.
SAGOT: Mali
PAGPAPALIWANAG:

This is not correct. According to Virgilio Enriquez, using multiple cultures, multiple languages, and multiple methods
should not be used to have a universal Filipino Psychology. Instead, it is important to use indigenous concepts and
languages to understand the culture and experience of Filipinos better.

8. Hindi na kinakailangang itakda ng bukod ang kahulugan mga salitang "memory" at "recall" sa konteksyong Pilipino
dahil parehas lamang ang pakahulugan nito.
SAGOT: Tama
PAGPAPALIWANAG:

The statement is correct. It is not necessary to define the meaning of the words "memory" and "recall" separately in the
Filipino context because they have the same sense in English and Filipino languages.

9. Ang mga teorya sa agham na sikolohiya ay angkop na angkop sa karanasang Pilipino.

SAGOT: Mali
PAGPAPALIWANAG:

The relevance of psychological science theories to the Filipino experience is a matter that is constantly discussed and studied
by Filipino psychology researchers. Some say that theories in psychology have limitations and are only partially suited to the
Filipino experience because of their differences and similarities with other cultures.

10. Iminumungkahing iwasan ang bulag na pagsunod sa alinmang pagbabago sa sikolohiya ng ibang
bansa.

SAGOT: Mali
PAGPAPALIWANAG:
Because if there is any change, it is because there is knowledge that can be better for the people.
