摘　　要：佛教禅定作为心理学研究方法的"另一种声音",是中国本土心理学体系构建的关键一环。首先,佛教禅定具有"内求"及"证知"的内证特色,区别于西方心理学研究方法。其次,佛教禅定不仅包括层次清晰的操作程序与方法,更有明确扎实的心理原理及机制。禅定实践分为"止"与"观"两个部分:"修定"是提升心理功能的必备前提;"观慧"则是心理功能实现突破的关键所在。最后通过中西两种研究方法的优劣比较,进一步明确佛教禅定在心理学研究方法上的独特价值。Buddhist meditation, as ＂alternative voice＂ of psychological research methodology, is a key link in the construction of the system of China＇s psychology. Firstly, Buddhist meditation has ＂introversive intuition＂ and ＂firsthand experience＂ of the inner evidence features, which differs from Western psychology research methods. Secondly, Buddhist meditation includes not only distinctive operating procedures and methods, but also clear and steady psychological principles and mechanisms. The meditation practice is divided into part ＂samatha＂ and part ＂vipassana＂： the former is the premise of promoting mental function while the latter is the key of mental function＇s breakthrough. Finally, the paper makes a comparison of the pros and cons of Chinese and western research methods in order to clarify the unique values of the Buddhist meditation in psychological research methodology.
