Psychological research in small-scale societies is crucial for what it stands to tell us about human psychological diversity. However, people in these communities, typically Indigenous communities in the global South, have been underrepresented and sometimes misrepresented in psychological research. Here I discuss the promises and pitfalls of psychological research in these communities, reviewing why they have been of interest to social scientists and how cross-cultural comparisons have been used to test psychological hypotheses. I consider factors that may be undertheorized in our research, such as political and economic marginalization, and how these might influence our data and conclusions. I argue that more just and accurate representation of people from small-scale communities around the world will provide us with a fuller picture of human psychological similarity and diversity, and it will help us to better understand how this diversity is shaped by historical and social processes.

国家内外的心理学

小规模社会的心理学研究对于告诉我们人类心理多样性的意义至关重要。然而,这些社区中的人们,通常是全球南方的土著社区,在心理学研究中的代表性不足,有时甚至被歪曲。在这里,我讨论了这些社区中心理学研究的前景和陷阱,回顾了社会科学家为何对它们感兴趣以及如何使用跨文化比较来检验心理假设。我考虑了我们研究中可能未充分理论化的因素,例如政治和经济边缘化,以及这些因素如何影响我们的数据和结论。
