This tribute celebrates the distinguished scholarship and extraordinary life of Dennis Michael McInerney, who passed away in Hong Kong on May 20th, 2022. It is a testimony of his impact on our professional and personal lives while highlighting the multitude and depth of his scholarly contributions. McInerney was one of those thinkers who invited us to reconsider how we conceptualize, assess, and apply scientific investigations in our teaching and learning practices. He authored and co-authored numerous widely used books and published numerous research articles in peer-refereed journals. During his remarkable career, McInerney dedicated a significant part to researching the problems associated with studying culture and uncovering how culture is a missing link in most motivation research. He believed there was a noteworthy need to conduct Indigenous educational research to understand the extent to which mainstream motivation theories apply to culturally diverse groups and stand up to cross-cultural testing scrutiny. McInerney's influence and impact will transcend future generations of research, given the gravity of his scholarly contributions.
这篇颂词是为了缅怀丹尼斯·迈克尔·麦金纳尼卓越的学术成就和非凡的一生，他于2022年5月20日在香港逝世。这是对他在我们职业生涯和个人生活中所产生影响的见证，同时也凸显了他学术贡献的广度和深度。麦金纳尼是那些促使我们重新思考如何在教学实践中概念化、评估和应用科学研究的思想家之一。他独自撰写或与人合著了许多广泛使用的书籍，并在同行评审期刊上发表了大量研究文章。在他非凡的职业生涯中，麦金纳尼投入了大量精力研究与文化研究相关的问题，并揭示文化在大多数动机研究中是如何缺失的环节。他认为非常有必要开展本土教育研究，以了解主流动机理论在多大程度上适用于文化多元群体，并经得起跨文化测试的审视。鉴于麦金纳尼学术贡献的重要性，他的影响将超越后代的研究。
