看到了美国一篇文章如下.
http://www.lifeprint.com/asl101/pages-layout/psychologyofdeafness.htm
我们还是需要向美国聋界文化界学习.
他的论点强调存在有聋人特点的心理现象, 不是强调有聋人特点的心理问题.
其他他提倡新词语: 聋心理, 不如更有文化味道(culturally appropriate) 的"聋人民心理"(Psychology of Deaf People),等于我们所说的聋人心理,非所谓什么"聋性".
再思考一下: 听人心理,也可以说存在有无心理问题的, 有则就去心理咨询中心问问. 我们聋人心理不可能和听人心理完全一样, 但应该有健康的方面, 但没人注意, 反而认为负面问题才是有聋人特点的心理问题, 难道听人的心理问题对我们聋人来说没有问题? 研究不代表整个聋人的个别聋人心理问题可以夸大到整个"聋"的问题? 不提出聋人心理, 聋人思维, 偏偏说是什么聋性思维,聋性心理这些新东西?? 难道你们作为聋人, 素质再高, 文化再高, 心理思维真的完全没有和听人什么区别吗?
有趣的词语争论, 美国那边已经说了, 请看看文章的开头就知道.
现在我看到了美国聋文化和中国聋文化发展之间的差距.
聋文化的发展跟不上网络时代,又加上所谓自认为的"权威人士"干涉, 中国聋文化更是艰难发展..
最近居然有人把DEAF WAY (实为聋方式)和聋性词语划上等号, 摸黑了DEAF WAY 这个伟大的世界聋文化的巨大*果.
如果我翻译江奔海的这个聋性帖子给金校长看看, 他看后有什么感想?
心情沉重了...
转摘:
"Psychology of Deafness?"
“IS THERE A PSYCHOLOGY OF DEAFNESS?”
[Note: A friend of mine, (Adonia Smith), would get mad if she saw the word "Deafness" here. She would tell you the proper term would be "Deaf People" and that the term "deafness" expresses a pathological viewpoint regarding people who are deaf. A pathological view is one in which the state of being deaf is considered to be like having a disease. For me the word "deafness" means "the state of being deaf." Neither the phrase "state of being" nor the suffix "ness" have direct sign equivalents in ASL so it is easy to see how the term "deafness" could fall out of favor. It will be interesting to see if the term becomes a "taboo" item similar to the term "hearing impaired." ]
Yes! There is a field of science known as the “psychology of deafness.” Let’s take a look that the term “psychology.” The “ology” portion of the word refers to the science of, or the study of something. The term “psych” refers to the “mind and or soul.” Generally the idea of “psych” when combined with “ology” means the study of the mind and behavior. (Funk, 1942). The phrase “psychology of deafness,” then refers to the field of science that studies the minds and behavior of people who are deaf.
Is there a field of science that studies the minds and behavior of people who are deaf? Most certainly! Researchers throughout the world are studying the minds and behavior of people who are deaf. You can see this for yourself by conducting an internet search using the words “+deafness +research +psychology.” Most search engines will produce a large number of links. (For example www.farrell-posner-etc.com/deafness.htm. is just one of many I found.)
A different question is, “Are the minds and behavior of deaf people different from that of hearing people?”
If the minds and behavior of deaf people are substantially different from the minds and behavior of hearing people then there is such a thing as “deaf psychology.”
Let’s break that down into even more questions and take a look at each one.
Are the brains of deaf people structurally or organizationally different from the brains of hearing people? Do they process language in the right hemisphere because they are deaf? No. The brains of Deaf people process sign language in the left hemisphere of the brain just as hearing people process spoken language. (Neville, 1988) But that is not the question we need to ask in relation to psychology. Instead we need to ask, “Are the minds of deaf people different from hearing people?” To that we would answer, “Yes.” Consider a prelingually deaf person who grew up using ASL as his native language. This person thinks in signs rather than words. Thinking in signs or pictures rather than words constitutes a mental process that is radically different from the norm. It is not within the scope of this “final” to delve into the many ramifications “picture thinking.” Suffice to say that this is one example that the minds of deaf people are different from the minds of hearing people. This is not to say that the brains of deaf people are different from hearing people. (Bellugi1988)
