  • The science and practice of psychology has evolved around the world on different trajectories and timelines, yet with a convergence on the recognition of the need for a human science that can confront the challenges facing the world today. Few would argue that the standard narrative of the history of psychology has emphasized European and American traditions over others, but in today's global culture, there is a greater need in psychology for international understanding. This volume describes the historical development of psychology in countries throughout the world. Contributors provide narratives that examine the political and socioeconomic forces that have shaped their nations' psychologies. Each unique story adds another element to our understanding of the history of psychology. The chapters in this volume remind us that there are unique contexts and circumstances that influence the ways in which the science and practice of psychology are assimilated into our daily lives. Making these contexts and circumstances explicit through historical research and writing provides some promise of greater international insight, as well as a better understanding of the human condition.

  • La difusión y adopción regional de objetos psicológicos ha sido un tema de interés en la historia de la psicología. Uno de los elementos discutidos ha sido el laboratorio de psicología y su influencia en el moldeamiento de la psicología en el mundo. En esta dirección, nuestro trabajo apunta a describir el laboratorio de psicología expe- rimental del Colegio de Profesores de Belo Horizonte y analizar su rol en la historia de la psicología en Brasil. Particularmente, se describe su instalación a finales de la década de 1920, sus aparatos y el uso que se les daba para la evaluación mental en este contexto. Nuestros resultados resaltan dos aspectos de este laboratorio: (1) fue un lugar para la enseñanza de psicología científica a futuros profesores de edu- cación básica, así como (2) fue origen de diferentes estudios sobre antropometría y aspectos mentales de la niñez, en el contexto urbano y de cambio industrial de Brasil durante las primeras décadas del siglo 20. Como era previsto, el laboratorio fue un agente de cambio social que promovió la modernización en la educación y sociedad brasileña. El laboratorio también contribuyó a la circulación del conocimiento psicológico en Brasil y, al mismo tiempo, fue un importante capítulo en la historia local y una parte de la historia global de la psicología.
