    Description
    This course is an overview of Filipino American psychology. Students analyze current Filipino American psychological and mental health perspectives, including the foundational concepts of culture, ethnicity, and race as they relate to Filipino Americans at multiple levels (social, communal, familial, and individual). Using these foundational concepts, students consider the values and meanings that influence Filipino American mental health and psychological issues, including psychological disorders that are particularly relevant for Filipino American populations (e.g., depression, intergenerational conflict, and trauma). This course is intended for students majoring or interested in Ethnic Studies.
