Abstract
The strength of this article is its attempt to show that the psychologist’s code of ethics can link to traditional knowledge. It shows that there are as-pects of traditional knowledge that could be useful in psychology. Direct con-tact with Elders regarding traditional methods used in dealing with troubled individuals would have been interesting. The Nunavut territorial government may not be the first to be shaped by an Aboriginal world view. Kalaalit Nunaat (Greenland) has a long history of home rule based on culture and language of its people. There may be some gap in use of terminology and language in relation to traditional knowledge and this gap may be due to regional differences. Some important values are not listed in the Inuttitut words; such as Upigiutiniq/Upigusunniq— which is appreciation and/or respect for one or each other. Puqiasunnginiqis a value very important amongst any peoples and that is trust and believing. These are not exhaustive and could be different in each Inuit group.
