Abstract

RABINOVICH, Elaine Pedreira. For an environmental psychology based on differences. Psicol. USP [online]. 2005, vol.16, n.1-2, pp. 119-127. ISSN 1678-5177.

This presentation defines the author's position within a relativist and culturalist approach - epistemologically and methodologically considered -, pointing to the ethnocentric bias and to the alienation of the real research field as consequences of positions that do not take into account the researcher's place in the world. Thus, it resembles a posture that is equivalent to an "Indian environmental psychology".

Keywords : Environmental psychology; Object; Reality; Sociocultural factors; Poetics; Indigenous psychology.
