走在學術與服務不斷交織的生涯路上五十年

Fifty Years, Life Experiences on the Road of Teaching, Research and Clinical Works

本文簡述過去五十年來（1960～2010）作者在漫長學術路上所思、所見、所感以及所寫的點點滴滴。其中，有病老、有苦惱、有喜、有血也有淚；一路走來覺得自己已經有所變，變得更充實、更豁達，也更看得開；雖然更看得開，但只有一事仍看不開，那就是「人生要活得有意義」。如何才能活得有意義？第一要有良好的願景，良好具體的生活目標、達成目標的生活計畫，以及鍥而不捨的計畫執行力。「走在習慣心理學的學術路上」五十年後，我發現，這一條路讓我感到我沒有白活，活得蠻有意義；所以，我願意繼續走在習慣理論探索路上，能走多遠就算多遠。

In the present paper, I attempted to describe briefly what I thought, wrote, felt and did during the years from 1960 to 2010, The main purpose is to leave some data, notes or information which might be of some help to Taiwanese psychologists in the present and the future time. The center of the descriptions is focused on the contents of several books I have wrote during the past fifty years. Some of these books were written as text books either for students in clinical psychology program or for students interested in clinical psychology in general, and some of them were written mainly out of my own academic interests and attempt to systematically explore the possibility of constructing a theory and body of knowledge of habits psychology. After finishing the reading of the present paper, the readers would gradually become more clear about my assertion that the concept of habit is though plain, as it appears, but in fact quite implicit, though concrete as it appears, but abstract, and though rigid but quite elastic; especially when redefined, the extent of applicably of the concept will become limitless, and any phenomenon in the universe could be seen as a habit. At the last part of the paper, the author pointed out the necessity of developing a series of habits scales to facilitate the enthusiasm of the study or research of habits, which is still invisible in the present psychological society in Taiwan.
