Abstract

Durganand Sinha (1922-1998) was an important Indian cross-cultural psychologist whose research spanned half a century. In commemoration of Sinha's passing 25 years ago, I explore in this essay his vision of the integration of Hindu religious psychology and Western scientific psychology. In the first part of the discussion, I consider a brief history of the interaction between Indian cultures and Western scientific psychology. In the second part, I next consider the proposal of Sinha that outlines various approaches that researchers might take with respect to the indigenization of scientific psychology. In the third part, I consider Sinha's discussion of integration as the expected outcome of the process of indigenization. Sinha indicates that when a researcher establishes a successful integrated cultural research paradigm in this way, it can serve as a framework for future researchers.

融合是本土化的目标:杜尔加南德-辛哈的跨文化心理学。
杜尔加南德-辛哈(Durganand Sinha,1922-1998 年)是印度一位重要的跨文化心理学家,他的研究跨越了半个世纪。为了纪念辛哈 25 年前的逝世,我在这篇文章中探讨了他对印度宗教心理学与西方科学心理学相结合的看法。在讨论的第一部分,我简要回顾了印度文化与西方科学心理学之间的互动历史。在第二部分中,我接下来考虑辛哈的建议,其中概述了研究人员在科学心理学本土化方面可能采取的各种方法。在第三部分,我将讨论辛哈关于融合作为本土化进程预期结果的论述。辛哈指出,当研究人员以这种方式成功建立起一个综合文化研究范式时,它就可以成为未来研究人员的框架。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved)。
