1  Psychology of Spiritual Experiences across Cultures
 Professor Al Dueck, Fuller Graduate School of Psychology Pasadena, CA

摘要： Cultural psychology as a field has emerged over the past 30 years, but little effort has been expended in extrapolating its findings to transformative religious experiences. This presentation asks in what way does culture influence religious experience. Can one assume that the religious experiences of Chinese and Western Buddhists , Pakistani and Saudi Muslims or Hispanic and Caucasian Christians are the same across ethnicity and culture? We think that is not the case. Western Christianity is a personal and private experience while Chinese Christian experience their faith intensely in communal settings like the church.

2  Chinese Psychology of Religion in an age of Perplexity

Dr. Louise Sundararajan, Regional Forensic Unit, Rochester Psychiatric Center

摘要：In this age of rapid modernization, our attitude toward things traditional is becoming increasingly ambivalent.  This ambivalence is reflected in the two terms that we use to refer to our traditions—culture and religion. When it comes to culture, we are nostalgic--we are ever eager to claim our culture as if our origin or roots is at stake.  When it comes to religious traditions, however, we may be eager to discard like a pair of old slippers certain ancient “superstitions” for fear that they clog the wheels of progress. Thus the challenge for Chinese psychology of religion lies in negotiating between two conflicting cultures—the traditional world in which  religion plays a central role, and the modern secular world in which religion seems to be the fifth wheel.  To meet this challenge, I propose a few research agendas to shed some light on the cognitive, affective, and moral dimensions of Chinese religions.
