This article explores C. F. Engelhard's struggles to construct psychometric devices for the Netherlands Indies between 1910 and 1925. A young Dutch psychiatrist, Engelhard moved to the Netherlands Indies in 1916, where he applied his clinical experience to subject Javanese individuals to mental assessment devices. He imagined that basic picture tests and one's orientation in time provided apt solutions to the cross-cultural challenges facing him. To turn his prototypes into actual tests, Engelhard had to leave his daily work environment and move into the surrounding villages. Aided by local chiefs and his assistant, Soekirman, he managed to set up temporary testing sites, where he examined hundreds of Javanese individuals. Yet despite his attempts to transform Javanese farmers into subjects capable of taking a psychological test, the Javanese remained free to make-or fail to make-meaning out of Engelhard's images. Even though the psychiatrist went to great lengths in taking into account the particular social and cultural features of psychological practice in a colonial context, a vast chasm remained to exist between him and his test takers. This article examines Engelhard's practices against the backdrop of his training as a Western psychiatrist, colonial ideology in the Netherlands Indies, and the reception of his research by other colonial scientists with a wide range of attitudes about "the native mind."

描绘民族心理学:1910年至1925年,殖民精神病学家努力研究爪哇人的思想。

本文探讨了CF恩格哈德(CF Engelhard)在1910至1925年间为荷兰印度人构造心理测量设备的努力。恩格尔哈德(Engelhard)是一位年轻的荷兰精神科医生,于1916年移居荷兰印度人,他运用他的临床经验对爪哇人进行心理评估。他认为基本的图片测试和时间取向可以为他所面临的跨文化挑战提供适当的解决方案。为了将他的原型变成实际测试,Engelhard必须离开他的日常工作环境,然后进入周围的村庄。在地方酋长及其助手Soekirman的帮助下,他设法建立了临时测试站点,在那里他检查了数百名爪哇人。尽管他试图将爪哇农民转变为能够接受心理测试的对象,爪哇人仍然可以根据恩格哈德的形象自由地做出或不做出意图。尽管精神科医生在殖民地背景下考虑了心理实践的特殊社会和文化特征,竭尽全力,但他和他的应试者之间仍然存在巨大的鸿沟。本文考察了恩格哈德在西方精神病学家的训练,荷兰印度群岛的殖民意识形态以及其他殖民地科学家对他的“本土思想”持广泛态度的研究背景下的实践。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2019 APA,保留所有权利)。尽管精神科医生在殖民地背景下考虑了心理实践的特殊社会和文化特征,竭尽全力,但他和他的应试者之间仍然存在巨大的鸿沟。本文考察了恩格哈德在西方精神病学家的训练,荷兰印度群岛的殖民意识形态以及其他殖民地科学家对他的“本土思想”持广泛态度的研究背景下的实践。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2019 APA,保留所有权利)。尽管精神科医生在殖民地背景下考虑了心理实践的特殊社会和文化特征,竭尽全力,但他和他的应试者之间仍然存在巨大的鸿沟。本文考察了恩格哈德在接受西方精神病学家的培训,在荷兰印度群岛的殖民思想以及他的研究受到其他殖民科学家的广泛接受的背景下,他对“本土思想”持多种态度。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2019 APA,保留所有权利)。并且他的研究得到了其他殖民科学家的广泛欢迎,他们对“本土思想”的态度也各不相同。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2019 APA,保留所有权利)。并且他的研究得到了其他殖民科学家的广泛欢迎,他们对“本土思想”的态度也各不相同。(PsycINFO数据库记录(c)2019 APA,保留所有权利)。
