Beskrivning

Early Psychological Research Contributions from Women of Color, Volume I, collects the dissertations of 20 cultural pioneers: women of color who were among the first to earn their doctorate degrees in psychology. Collectively, these chapters offer an important resource to diversify the history of psychology. This book is structured so that each chapter provides a biographical sketch of the woman, a summary of the dissertation, a reproducibility critique, a discussion about a modern alternative theory or methodological approach associated with the work (feminist theory, ethnopsychology, liberation psychology, etc.), and examples of how the dissertation can be used as instructional content in psychology and related disciplines offers suggestions for classroom use. The dissertations were completed as early as 1912 and as late as 1979 with the range reflecting differences in when women of certain groups could access education. The topics also range broadly across the breadth of the field of psychology, including physiological, cognitive, developmental, social, clinical, and more topics. The diversity of the work collected here will allow this book to be used to augment coursework either as a complete collection or as individual chapters. Instructors and students in undergraduate and graduate Research Methods courses will find this a crucial text in maintaining a true and inclusive historical perspective of psychological research. Additionally, due to the inclusion of research spanning the breadth of Psychology, this edited volume will appeal to scholars both across the discipline and in related fields, such as Women's Studies, Cognitive Science, Education, and Cultural Studies.

Recensioner i media

"In this groundbreaking book, the editors highlight the contributions of women of color to psychological research. While some of the women have achieved a level of prominence and recognition because of their involvement in APA (e.g., Melba Vasquez) or historical significance (e.g., Mamie Phipps Clark), most of these outstanding women psychologists have toiled in relative obscurity to the average student and consumer of psychological research. This book is much needed and necessary reading that challenges the often-unspoken narrative that only the histories of White men contributions to early psychological research merit knowing." Kevin Cokley, Professor of Psychology, University of Michigan, USA, and President of the American Psychological Association’s Society for the Psychological Study of Culture, Ethnicity and Race."To write the history of any science today, one is compelled to search and report on individuals whose contributions were substantial and even critical, but whose work and names are not remembered because of our own blindspots. The editors have carefully assembled a striking range of such work in psychology covering basic research on perception, learning, memory, and attitudes as well as work on topics such as occupational prestige, marriage in urban areas, the effects of hunger, and the psychology of marginalized groups. In so doing, this volume serves a unique role in teaching us about important ideas from our past – ideas that had been lost to us until today."Mahzarin R. Banaji, Richard Clarke Cabot Professor of Social Ethics, Department of Psychology, Harvard University
