省思台灣護理知識本土化之建構－－以精神衛生護理為例

Reflections on the Development of Indigenous Nursing Knowledge: An Example from Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing

台灣從1980年始，社會學、人類學及行為科學研究萌起本土化的意識覺醒。本文嘗試從台灣當前護理學術發展的現況與疾病、醫療、照顧不可分割於個案所處的社會文化脈絡檢討和反省，而提出護理知識建構本土化之需要。進而藉由社會科學本土化之歷史進程與進路為借鏡，反思台灣護理學術發展方向；接續以精神衛生護理為例，闡述護理知識建構本土化之進路。

An awareness of issues concerning the indigenous population has been present in the social and behavioral sciences in Taiwan since 1980. This paper attempts to make critical analyses and reflections on the development of current nursing knowledge in Taiwan. The needs and directions for nursing studies rooted in indigenous culture are discussed in detail.
