Abstract

The American Psychological Association released its second edition of the Inclusive Language Guide in late 2023. The guidance on the use of the terms "White" or "European American" did not change from the first edition. In this reply, we provide the rationale for using the terms "White" and "European" interchangeably for brevity in academic and policy discussions. Nonetheless, brevity should not be prioritized over accuracy or specificity. This recommendation also aims to explain how the use of "European American" labels instead of "White" can contribute to the adoption of multiculturalist views, ultimately reducing racial and ethnic prejudice.

美国心理学会关于使用 "白人 "或 "欧洲人 "的建议：答复 Moffitt 和 Juang (2024)。

美国心理学会于 2023 年底发布了第二版《包容性语言指南》。与第一版相比，"白人 "或 "欧美人 "的使用指南没有变化。在本答复中，我们提供了在学术和政策讨论中为了简洁而交替使用 "白人 "和 "欧洲人 "的理由。不过，简洁性不应优先于准确性或具体性。本建议还旨在解释使用 "欧美人 "而非 "白人 "标签如何有助于采纳多元文化主义观点，最终减少种族和民族偏见。(PsycInfo Database Record (c) 2024 APA, all rights reserved）。
