Held (2020) portrays critical and Indigenous psychologists as subscribing to an epistemological “anti-objectivism” that inhibits their ability to combat oppression. She believes that their anti-objectivism yields a troublesome relativism in which truth is overly context-dependent; what counts as true knowledge for one Indigenous group may not count for another. This commentary explores whether critical and Indigenous psychologists are strict “anti-objectivists,” as Held contends. It also challenges the need for epistemological consistency, while encouraging a shift from “objectivism” and “subjectivism” as essentialized states to “objecting” and “subjecting” as complementary ways to explore and study the world.

反对、服从和认知多样性

Held (2020) 将批判性和本土心理学家描述为支持一种认识论的“反客观主义”，这种“反客观主义”抑制了他们对抗压迫的能力。她相信他们的反客观主义产生了一种麻烦的相对主义，在这种相对主义中，真理过度依赖于上下文；对一个土著群体来说算作真正知识的东西可能对另一个土著群体来说算不上什么。这篇评论探讨了批判性心理学家和土著心理学家是否像 Held 所说的那样是严格的“反客观主义者”。它还挑战了认识论一致性的需要，同时鼓励从作为本质化状态的“客观主义”和“主观主义”转变为作为探索和研究世界的补充方式的“客观主义”和“主观主义”。
