<p>Psikologi klasik cenderung konservatif, yang lebih banyak berurusan dengan teori teori tentang proses-proses individual dan yang bersifat universal. Kecenderungan kepada paradigma sosial, berawal ketika psikolog-psikolog Eropa, Serge<br />Moscovici meluncurkan gagasannya tentang reprentasi sosial (1961) dan Henrri Tajfel dan Turner mempublikasikan teori mereka tentang identitas social (1979). Psikologi tidak lagi semata-mata individual, namun terkait dengan lingkungan sosial dan kebudayaan. Setiap kelompok, ras atau etnik, jadinya punya psikologinya sendiri yang relevan dengan konteks kehidupan masingmasing. Di tahun 1933 seorang psikolog Asia, Uichol Kim dan sejawatnya orang Eropa, John Berry mencetuskan istilah indigenous psychology yang didefi niskannya sebagai “studi ilmiah tentang perilaku dan minda (mind) manusia yang berasal dari dirinya sendiri (native), yang tidak dibawa dari daerah lain, dan dirancang untuk orang-orang itu sendiri”. Karena tidak ada padanan dalam bahasa Indonesia untuk kata “indigenous”, maka dalam sebuah Konges Ikatan Psikologi Sosial di Universitas Indonesia, Jakarta, pada tahun 1999, saya mencetuskan kata “ulayat”. Saya meminjam istilah itu dari antropologi dan hukum</p><p>Kata kunci:. Psikologi sosial, psikologi budaya, psikologi Asia, psikologi ulayat</p>

Research aimed at generating evidence to address elicitation challenges that arise because of extreme inequality and marginalized perspectives requires deliberation on relevant methodologies that can elicit insights by both revering marginalized sociocultural strengths and being sensitive to power imbalances. In this article, we provide examples of participatory methods that make the most of often silenced non-Western sociocultural strengths and create opportunities for participation despite barriers due to inequality. The examples emerged from multiple researcher journals and visual data from a study that documented indigenous psychology on resilience with elders ( n = 24; male = 10, female = 14) and young people ( n = 48; male = 21, female = 27) in two remote Southern African border communities. We describe the examples of elicitation methods to make the most of culture using (i) symbols that reflect nonmainstream sociocultural perspectives, (ii) familiar multiliteracies, (iii) a variety of spoken languages, and (iv) familiar collectivist modes, as well as contextual characteristics to (i) equalize opportunity given structural disparity, (ii) equalize power, and (iii) honor gender and age hierarchies. We conclude that methods for indigenous research can honor and leverage marginalized cultures and contexts to extend beyond sympathy for an oppressed worldview or a context of deprivation.

Two studies explore the structure and psychological makeup of jeitinho, a Brazilian indigenous construct associated with problem-solving strategies in strong hierarchies. Study 1 used a scenario approach with nonstudent participants and demonstrated that jeitinho can be described by a three-dimensional structure: corruption, creativity, and social norm breaking. Study 2 used individual and social norm scenarios in nonstudent samples and demonstrated that moral leniency is associated with more corruption and social norm breaking. Furthermore, only in the personal but not the social norm condition was greater social dominance orientation associated with more corruption and social norm breaking. Jeitinho is not a monolitical construct, but it is a complex sociocultural strategy that has distinct functional components at the personal and normative levels. Theoretical advances in the understanding of social norms and indigenous psychology by examining both culture-specific and general social-psychological processes are outlined.
