中文摘要

張包意琴香港大學社會工作及社會行政學系 陳麗雲 香港大學社會科學院 在現代香港,來自中國傳統儒家的權威集體主義(authoritarian collectivism)的思想,包括強調犧牲小我完成大我、尊卑有序、克己、 以和爲貴等思想仍具影響力,規範著不少家庭成員之間的關係。這些 思想1與我們長期在社會工作中學習西方重視平等、突出個人自由與 責任、促進自我滿足、建立信心、面對矛盾的輔導理論,尤其是我們 較爲熟識的 Virginia Satir (薩提爾,1993,1994 ; Satire/a/.,1991) 輔導理論,有著顯著不同。西方輔導理論不會因迴避衝突而壓抑變 革,這一關鍵與我們中國人處事作風大相逕庭,導致當事人對這種理 論與對運用這種理論的輔導員產生懷疑與抗拒。 中國人重視「和諧」,而「和諧」的觀念在《易經》佔有重要位 置。譬如:「天地以和順而爲命,萬物以和順而爲性」;「調和爲吉, 不調和爲凶」都是來自《易經》的思想。我們最感興趣的是《易經》 談「變革」的部分。易者變也,整部《易經》,就是談變革之道。不 單如此,幾千年來受到集體主義薰陶的中國人,在注釋《易經》當中 找到在和諧中進行變革的方法,並加以發揮。過去一年,我們嘗試在 輔導工作中,運用《易經》一些槪念,協助深受中國傳統影響的當事 人進行變革,結果令人鼓舞。本文以個案爲基礎,結合臨床實踐和理論反省,把《易經》一些槪念與Satir模式作比較,希望有助於心理 輔導本土化的課題,並引發更多討論。

英文摘要

In modern Hong Kong, the influence of traditional Chinese culture remains strong. Authoritarian collectivism continues to pervade many local families, where people are constrained to sacrifice their small self for the big self, respect harmony and the hierarchical order, and practice filial piety and self-restraint. This pattern of behavior differs markedly from the egalitarian individualist cultures of the West, where people are socialized to value individual freedom, equality ? differences and self-actualization, as well as direct expression of self and confidence to face conflicts, and where the therapeutic models we learned emerged. For most of these therapeutic models originating from the West, change occupies a very important position. If there is need to choose between change, which means facing conflict, and harmony, which means keeping the status quo, the choice is often change. From our experience, uncritical application of this strategy with local clients leads to suspicion, resistance, and finally rejection of the counseling process as well as the counselor. Harmony is a focal concern in Chinese community living. It occupies a central position in the I Ching, which captures the essence of Chinese philosophical thought. For the authors of the I Ching,“harmony reflects the nature of heaven and earth”; “harmony is good,disharmony is evil.” The fundamental concept of the I Ching is change. “I” means change. The I Ching deals with the Tao (the Way) of change. For more than three thousand years, Chinese have lived within a culture dominated by hierarchical collectivist values, and many among them looked and continue to look to the / Ching for guidance to change without breaking harmony. Over the past year, we have employed certain concepts of the I Ching in facilitating local clients in the process of change, especially those clients who are deeply influenced by traditional Chinese culture. Results have been encouraging. This paper is an attempt to integrate some of these experiences in clinical practice with theoretical explorations, and to compare certain basic concepts of the / Ching with those of the Satir model, in the hope that it will stimulate further discussion on the development of indigenous counseling.
