Ulasan Buku Psikologi Melayu

Abdul Halim Othman 1993 Dewan Bahasa Dan Pustaka.

Sinopsis

Apabila kita berbicara tentang psikologi orang Melayu, kita antara lain, memerikan orang Melayu. Pemerian ini merangkumi aspek fizikal, persepsi, sensasi, emosi, motivasi, ingatan dan khayalan, pembelajaran dan ketaakulan, personaliti, sifat abnormal (bilazim) pengaruh keturunan dan persekitaran dan yang sebagainya. Dalam membicarakan tentang orang Melayu, kita sudah semestinya akan berhadapan dengan pe!bagai masalah. Antaranya termasuklah masalah-masalah seperti yang pernah dihadapi oleh dua penulisan yang kontroversial tentang orang Melayu: Revolusi Mental (1966) dan Dilema Melayu (1970). Ramai mendakwa bahawa penulisan tersebut tidak memerikan orang Melayu dengan adil dan empiris dari sudut-sudut yang tersebut.

Book Review

In recent years, counseling ideas in the Asia-Pacific region developed from construct, originating from a Euro-American framework. The implementation of such counseling ideas has presented many problems and challenges for Asian Pacific counselors. This book looks at the construct "counseling" in terms of both how it has been adapted in the eight Asian Pacific countries and its indigenous roots within each culture of the region. The book is a compendium of chapters written by counselors and counseling psychologists from the region. Each of the authors has been exposed to counseling as practiced in the West. However, they view these practices in a different light when faced with the problem of implementing counseling ideas in their respective societies. Counseling in elementary through higher education, ethnic and gender issues in counseling, counselor professionalization, and indigenous counseling, receive a special focus.

Book Review-Afro Asian Psychology

Afro-Asian Psychology Clinical, Counselling and Physiological Perspective. 1999. ISBN 967-942-429-4. 202 hlm. RM35.00. Mohammad Haji-Yusuf & Abdul Halim Othman . Bangi : Penerbit UKM.

General psychology or commonly refered as "Western psychology' is limited in its ability to explain non-Western phenomena because of its reliance on Western theory. Thus effort by indigeneous psychologists to correct this heavy reliance on Western models as displayed by the articles in this book has to be commended. These articles are based on research done in developing countries of the Afro-Asian region. The countries included Australia, Basotho, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Malaysia, Pakistan, Philipines and Singapore. The phenomena studied still suggest indigenization from with-out whereby Western models and methods were imposed on non-Western cultures. However it indicates a phase in the process of indigenization of Afro-Asian psychology, an important phase which can be linked to the take-off stage that requires further refinements in research, unimposed by external criteria.

Prof Dato' Dr MOHAMMAD HAJI-YUSUF (Allahyarham) was a Professor at the Psychology Department, Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities.
Prof Emeritus Dato' Dr ABDUL HALIM OTHMAN formerly was also a Professor at the same department and the former dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Humanities, UKM
