摘要

在美国,健康服务领域的有色人种心理学家严重短缺。在本文中,我们结合美国心理学会就心理学在延续种族主义和人类等级制度中所扮演的角色向有色人种道歉一事,对这种短缺现象进行了研究。根据有关美国种族社会历史背景的文献,我们认为,美国原住民(如剥削和驱逐出家园)、黑人(如奴隶制)和其他种族群体所受到的待遇导致了有关人类等级制度和白人优越性的种族主义态度的形成,而这些最初的行为和态度开始了歧视行为、种族主义态度和社会不平等的恶性循环,至今仍在影响着社会。我们还认为,专业心理学家(包括医疗服务和应用心理学家)的短缺问题无法在培养这些人才的研究生院层面得到解决。要解决这个问题,首先必须让更多的有色人种学生在中小学教育中取得成功,并最终进入大学和研究生院学习。因此,解决方案需要针对整个教育轨迹进行干预。最后,我们建议美国心理学会等心理学协会以及心理学家个人采取行动并进行宣传。

Education and Training: Professional
In the United States, there is an acute shortage of health service psychologists of color. In this paper, we examined this shortage in the context of the American Psychological Association’s apology to people of color for psychology’s role in perpetuating racism and human hierarchy. Drawing from literature on the sociohistorical context of race in America, we argue that the treatment meted out to Native Americans (e.g., exploitation and eviction from their homelands), Blacks (e.g., slavery), and other ethnic-racial groups resulted in the development of racist attitudes about human hierarchy and White superiority, and these initial behaviors and attitudes began a vicious cycle of discriminatory behaviors, racist attitudes, and societal inequities that are still affecting society in the present day. We also contend that the shortage of professional psychologists—both health service and applied—cannot be solved at the graduate school level where these individuals are trained. The solution has to start with increasing the numbers of students of color who succeed in elementary and secondary schooling, ultimately matriculating into college and graduate school. Thus, the solution requires interventions aimed at the entire educational trajectory. We conclude with recommendations for actions and advocacy from psychological associations such as the American Psychological Association as well as individual psychologists.

期刊介绍: Review of General Psychology seeks to publish innovative theoretical, conceptual, or methodological articles that cross-cut the traditional subdisciplines of psychology. The journal contains articles that advance theory, evaluate and integrate research literatures, provide a new historical analysis, or discuss new methodological developments in psychology as a whole. Review of General Psychology is especially interested in articles that bridge gaps between subdisciplines in psychology as well as related fields or that focus on topics that transcend traditional subdisciplinary boundaries.
