The origin and formulation of Chinese character: an introduction to confucianism and its influence on Chinese behavior patterns.
Confucianism has had a powerful influence on Chinese behavior and social structure for the past 2,000 years. Some of these influences produce roadblocks to conventional Western psychotherapy and counseling when used on Chinese Americans with traditional values. The Confucianism influence on the Chinese is described with suggestions for psychotherapists and counselors who have Chinese and Chinese American clients.
