This article presents two checklists designed to help researchers, practitioners, and evaluators address common critiques of Positive Psychology (PP) identified in a recent systematic review. These critiques focus on PP's theorizing, methodology, and its perception as a decontextualized, capitalistic endeavor. The checklists offer practical recommendations for improving future research and practice, with one tailored for researchers and the other for practitioners and evaluators. Key focus areas include self-reflection, cultural sensitivity, methodological diversity, collaboration, and ethical considerations. By acknowledging past critiques and offering concrete solutions, this paper aims to foster a more inclusive and rigorous future for PP.
本文介绍了两份清单，旨在帮助研究人员、从业者和评估人员应对近期一项系统评价中确定的对积极心理学（PP）的常见批评。这些批评集中在积极心理学的理论构建、方法论，以及它被视为一种脱离背景的资本主义行为。这些清单为改进未来的研究和实践提供了实用建议，其中一份是为研究人员量身定制的，另一份是为从业者和评估人员量身定制的。关键重点领域包括自我反思、文化敏感性、方法多样性、合作和伦理考量。通过承认过去的批评并提供具体解决方案，本文旨在为积极心理学营造一个更具包容性和严谨性的未来。
