Institute of Ethnology

I received my B.A. in educational psychology and counseling (with double degree in health education) from National Taiwan Normal University in 2007, and my Ph.D. in psychology from National Taiwan University in 2013, after doing a stint as a visiting scholar at Ohio State University in 2011-2012. I am currently an assistant research fellow at the Institute of Ethnology, Academia Sinica. I am broadly interested in how selflessness and hypo-ego mindsets (“the quiet ego phenomenon”) dynamically interact to enhance human well-being. My most recent work examines the affective, cognitive, and motivational mechanisms that underlie mental health and other self-regulatory phenomena, including Buddhist mindfulness (Chang, Kuo, Lin, & Huang, 2018; Chang, Chang, & Chen, 2018), ecosystem motivations (Kuo, Su, Crocker, & Chang, 2017; Chen, Wu, & Chang, 2017), Chinese Zhong-Yong thinking (Chang, Lin & Huang, 2015), and the decentering processes of the psychological displacement paradigm in diary-writing (PDPD; Chang Huang & Lin, 2013). 

I am also interested in cultural and social change in Taiwan at the individual-, interpersonal-, family-, and group-level. My recent work on cultural dynamics in Taiwan focuses on the integrative processes of creative performance in children and young adolescents (Chang, et a., 2017; Chang, Su, & Chen, 2017; Chang et al., 2015; Chang et al., 2014).
