The Filipino people value family, religion, selflessness and a hard work ethic. The culture of the Philippines is very family orientated, and the people value their Catholic religion above anything else. For the Experimental Learning Project, I interviewed Clavel Wells and she was born in the Philippines. She was fortunate enough to have grown up in a household that did not face extreme poverty, although that did not take away from her hard work ethic. Growing up in the Phillipines, everyone worked in the household to support the family. That has transpired into her life in America, and now she regularly works hard as her role as an LPN. She ensures to respect everyone she cares for, regardless of their cultural

Filipino nurses and Filipino patients as well possess some similarities in their psychological backgrounds which help nurses to relate the patients’ behavior to her experiences. Filipinos in general have similarities in some patterns of behavior referring to, and as explained by the Filipino Psychology. The study of Filipino psychology conducted by Mejico (2004) concludes that Filipino personality is a blend of Western influence in external aspects like aesthetic tastes and preferences, and Asian influence which accounts for the ultimate core of his character. These influences contribute to the positive generalization that Filipinos are caring, loving, compassionate and emphatic in nature. It is the

The Philippines have various cultures because it was colonized by different countries which influenced most of the cultures. From what I experienced people in the Philippines are always open. They always have a warm welcome whenever they meet new people, they are always open to making new friends from what I have experienced. I think there is racism in the Philippines but I have never seen it or I have not experienced it. The people I associated with are not racist, they were very open, whenever there is someone that is not the same race. When it comes to families, our families treat each other like relatives and we trust each other. I grew up with Filipino and a little bit of Portuguese culture since my dad was Portuguese. I say that because there are some things we do differently and how my dad acts or protects us. We had the opportunity to socialize with people in our neighborhoods, we would always play outside like tagu taguan, agawan base, patintero and more. Tagu Taguan is a Filipino version of hide and seek, agawan base is basically there are two teams who has their own bases and

Since both of my parents are Filipino, I identify as the ethnicity of Filipina. Although, I did not have the luxury of growing up in the Philippines, as opposed to my parents, the majority of my heritage’s culture was instilled to me within my household. Within this space, my parents spoke their native tongue, Tagalog, so it was not uncommon to hear a blending of English and Tagalog on a daily basis. Additionally, there are specific customs that were taken from the predominately enriched blending of Catholic and various other Asian cultures that my parents both grew up with that reflect my own presentation of

Over the last month I have had the opportunity to spend time with some friends of our family. The culture in which I had the privilege was the Philippine Culture in Hercules, California, where the entire town is predominantly Filipino. The culture is rich in heritage and tradition as will be expressed throughout the remainder of this essay.

Our country is rich in culture; the occupation of the Spanish, the American, and the Japanese gave the Philippines its diverse and unique culture. This exceptional culture we have in our country has produced numerous brilliant individuals, who up to this day are still well recognized. So it is safe to say that part of the reason why they became who they were is because of their culture; because of our culture. (Ong, 2011)

It’s no joke when one becomes a person at the fringes of a ‘foreign’ society. Or a mere shadow, if one hasn’t worked out her legal status. It is a major personal pain, stemming from a bruised pride - because in the Philippines one may be somebody, but suddenly becomes marginalized here. That hurts all the time, silently.

On an ordinary Saturday afternoon, my sister and I made our way to 1st St. and Central Ave. from a failed attempt at another left-to-be-unnamed cultural epicenter, which was a very disappointing trip. Little Tokyo proved to be quite the opposite, as I was able to ascertain a much deeper understanding of the Japanese culture because of it, and at the same time was able to reflect on the differences and similarities of my Filipino heritage. From what I was able to gather, the Japanese and Filipino cultures have quite a few significant differences, but have more similarities than I originally anticipated.

Children in Philippines also help the household chores such as cleaning the house, doing the laundry, washing the dishes and some children in their young age are going to work just to help to support their family.

Over the years genetics has proven to be the fundamental component of human composition; it dictates a person’s hair color or eye color, but does the same apply to our own personality? People like to think that they alone are responsible for the actions they take, but recent studies has proved that, that very sentiment may not be true. Based on the experiment discussed in the article The Minnesota study of twins reared apart it can be concluded that genetic factors also known as genomes account for a vast majority of human characterises. The experiment used twins that have been separated at birth to determine whether or not environmental factors contribute to a person’s personality. According to the study the physiological, personality, psychological interests, and social attitudes were almost identical even though they were raised in different environments. The only characteristics that differentiated were there intelligence. Based on this there are many questions that may arise such as, does our parents genetics really determine our personality or our behaviours? What about where we group up, does that influence our behavior? Or, should we just give up, and say we are genetically programed to think and behave the way we do? What about our intelligence, does that come from our parents? This paper will address those questions and discuss: environmental factors and there relation to personality, the relation
