An original compilation of diverse sources on Chinese patterns
of thinking and behavior, this comprehensive reference work is
addressed primarily to social scientists, psychologists,
psychiatrists, and mental health professionals. More than 3500

and cover primarily Chinese and English-language sources, although
some relevant publications in other languages are also cited.

the literature in psychology, psychiatric, and related disciplines
and cover primarily Chinese and English-language sources, although
some relevant publications in other languages are also cited. By
providing easy access to material often scattered in books,
monographs, and periodicals addressed to different audiences, this
volume performs a major service for students and scholars involved
in cross-cultural or Chinese studies.
The volume begins with an introductory chapter that presents
quantitative data on publication trends and offers a qualitative
evaluation of the literature. The studies that follow are divided
into 13 chapters largely based on the American Psychological
Association content classifications. Within chapters citations are
arranged alphabetically by author. Items from non-English sources
have been translated into English, while many English abstracts of
Chinese publications were extensively edited or rewritten. In
addition, an introduction and introductory notes to each chapter
place the citations in context. As author index and an extensive
subject index provide cross-referencing and aid in literature
searches. An invaluable acquisition for any library with a Chinese
studies or psychology collection, this volume will both introduce
readers to the Chinese psychological literature and facilitate
their access to this important body of work.
