Carried out in collaboration with Ateneo de Manila University’s Dr. Ma. Regina Hechanova-Alampayβ€”a recognized luminary in Philippine psychologyβ€”alongside prominent scholars Dr. Mendiola Teng-Calleja and Dr. Jaimee Felice Caringal-Go, as well as Ma.

This study offers a thoughtful and comprehensive look into the current landscape of Work and Organizational Psychology (WOP) in the Philippines. It explores crucial areas such as education and training, local research efforts, emerging trends, the roles and contributions of professionals in the field, as well as the complex challenges and ethical concerns that practitioners often face. What makes this research especially meaningful is its relevance not just to academics, but also to practitioners, students, and institutions aiming to better understand and advance the practice of WOP in the local context. By capturing both the progress and the pressing issues within the field, the study lays the groundwork for future developments and meaningful dialogue in psychological science. It is a vital resource that helps shape how psychology is taught, practiced, and valued across workplaces in the Philippines today.

This scholarly achievement highlights UA’s commitment to impactful research fostering collaborations with top universities in the Philippines. By bridging institutions, UA not only strengthens its research network but also affirms its growing capacity to contribute meaningfully to the global advancement of psychology.
