The Radical Psychology Network (RadPsyNet) began in Toronto in 1993 when two dozen people attended a discussion at the American Psychological Association convention entitled "Will Psychology Pay Attention to its Own Radical Critics?" Today the group has more than 500 members in over three dozen countries. Members include psychologists and others, academics and practitioners, faculty and students, psychotherapists and patients. It publishes the online ''Radical Psychology Journal'' and sponsors an active email discussion list. The aim of the group is to change the ''status quo'' of psychology. Challenging psychology's traditional focus on minor reform, members emphasise enhancing human welfare by working for fundamental social change. They claim that psychology itself has too often oppressed people rather than liberated them and they work to redress this imbalance. In keeping with this aim, RadPsyNet co-founders Dennis Fox and Isaac Prilleltensky co-edited ''Critical Psychology: An Introduction'' in 1997, and many RadPsyNet members are active in academic critical psychology as well as in opposition to psychological abuses. ==See also== *Critical Psychology *Psychopolitical validity, coined by Isaac Prilleltensky in 2003 as a way to evaluate Community Psychology research ==External links== *(New Ideas and Old Values in Psychotherapy ) *(Radical Psychology Network homepage ) *(Critical Psychology: An Introduction (book) ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Radical Psychology Network」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
