you can also use the keyword yMaxValue, then ou do not need clipping:

\begin{figure}
\psset{algebraic=true,plotpoints=1501}
\begin{pspicture}(-3,-1.5)(3,3.5)
\psaxes[xunit=1](0,0)(-3.14,-1.5)(3.14,3.14)
\psplot[linecolor=blue,linestyle=dashed,linewidth=2pt,yMaxValue=1.4]{-1}{1}{asin(x)}
\psplot[linecolor=red,linestyle=dashed,linewidth=2pt,yMaxValue=3.14]{-1}{1}{acos(x)}
\end{pspicture}
\caption{Inverse Trigonometric plots in algebraic notation}
\end{figure}
