Using a combination of in-depth interviews and visual narrative exercise, stories of six urban poor families living in Payatas, Quezon City, were analyzed. Key findings show that consumption-related decisions of participants follow a double cyclic narrative of just right spending. Community shared practices enable participants to survive by managing tensions between making ends meet and sustaining a public ideal of living a simple life. The researchers provide reflections on the socio-economic reproduction of a public ideal and rethinking the role of psychology in poverty reduction policies. 2018-09-01T07:00:00Z text https://archium.ateneo.edu/psychology-faculty-pubs/141 https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/10720537.2018.1499570 Psychology Department Faculty Publications Archīum Ateneo Child Psychology Psychology |
