joomla how to call filter text

Question

I am developing a Joomla plugin and I would like to call the filter text settings

To illustrate exactly what I am trying to access:

From back end > article manager > options > filter text tab > here we set the filtering text for the editors. The settings are assign to group of users, and these can be White List, Black list, No html, No filter...

I am looking for something like jSomething::something

Anybody?

Thank you
