DESCRIPTION:<p>Callfor Papers: Chinese Philosophy and Psychological Wellbeing</p>\n<p>Deadline for Submissions: 31 May 2026</p>\n<p>Guest Editor: Yuchen Liang liangyc@cuhk.edu.cn</p>\n<p>Submit at: Editorial Manager for JCCP&nbsp\;&nbsp\;https://www.editorialmanager.com/jccp/default.aspx</p>\n<p>Modern mental health is often framed through a Western clinical lens. This Special Issue explores how Chinese philosophy&mdash\;both ancient and contemporary&mdash\;provide a different map for the human &ldquo\;heart-mind&rdquo\; (xin 心). We want to bridge the gap between abstract philosophy and the lived experience of wellbeing\, looking at everything from ancient concepts of gan感 and qing 情 to how Chinese thought can help us survive the modern &ldquo\;attention economy&rdquo\; and mental health crisis.</p>\n<p>Key Themes &amp\;Areas of Interest:</p>\n<p>Defining the Healthy Self: How do Confucian\, Daoist\, and Chinese Buddhist texts define a &ldquo\;well&rdquo\; person? How does this differ from Western notions of mental health? Can we use Chinese standards like qingzhi 情志 in addition to contemporary frameworks like the DSM-5?</p>\n<p>Philosophical Psychotherapy: Using Chinese concepts in clinical settings or as frameworks for mental health treatment such as the &ldquo\;Indigenous psychology&rdquo\; (本土心理學).</p>\n<p>The &ldquo\;Attention Economy&rdquo\; &amp\; Psychopolitics: How Chinese philosophy can critique or resist the digital exhaustion of modern life\, or combination of psychology and technology in social control?</p>\n<p>The Ethics of Care: How Chinese medical ethics (traditional Chinese medicine) and theories of the self(gongfulun 功夫論) change how we approach psychologicalsuffering and psycho-physiological illness?</p>\n<p>Chinese Affect Theory: How Chinese conceptslike gan 感 and qing 情 construct unique approach regarding Western originated concepts like affects and emotions?</p>\n<p>Types of Submissions We&rsquo\;re Looking For:</p>\n<p>Historical Research: Deep dives into ancient texts with a focus on psychological application.</p>\n<p>Contemporary Critique: How Chinese philosophy interacts with modern political and social pressures.</p>\n<p>Comparative Pieces: Dialogues between Chinese thought and Western psychology.</p>\n<p>Case Studies: Philosophical reflections on mental health practices or specific psychological phenomena.</p>
