Duchowość jawna i ukryta. Czy warto kruszyć kopie o naukowy status badania duchowości?
Abstract
Mimo że duchowość jest dziś popularnym obiektem badań w wielu dziedzinach nauk o człowieku, ciągle istnieją kłopoty z jej definiowaniem. Wśród ich przyczyn, przynajmniej w psychologii, choć nieuzasadnione, są skrzywienia odzwierciedlające osobiste uwikłanie naukowca: z jednej strony apologetyczne, z drugiej – antyfideistyczne. Skrzywienie pierwszego typu jest często powodowane wykraczającymi poza paradygmat nauki przekonaniami twórcy koncepcji. Odnosi się to do dwu koncepcji uznających istnienie duchowego wymiaru człowieka jako substancjalnie innego niż psychologiczny: logoteoria V. E. Frankla, czyli koncepcja wymiaru duchowego jako źródła potrzeby sensu, oraz koncepcja D. Helminiaka, według której duchowość jest realizacją zasady autentycznej transcendencji siebie. Takie koncepcje określone są jako jawne. Jednak istnieją też jawne koncepcje duchowości, możliwe do akceptacji w ramach psychologii akademickiej; omówiony przykład to koncepcja duchowości opracowana przez J. Averilla. Skrzywienie drugiego typu zdominowało zachodnią psychologię na długo. Może być ono powodem nieużywania pojęcia duchowości przez twórców koncepcji, których wyróżniające się cechy pojawiają się w tym artykule. Są to ukryte koncepcje duchowości. Trzy ich przykłady to: teoria opanowywania trwogi, zainicjowana przez T. Pyszczynskiego, J. Greenberga i S. Solomona, model podtrzymywania sensu, którego autorami są głównie T. Proulx i S. Heine, oraz transgresyjna koncepcja człowieka Józefa Kozieleckiego. Występują w nich podobne wątki, jednak koncepcja transgresyjna jawi się jako najbardziej przydatna. W zakończeniu znajdują się propozycje badań wykorzystujących idee sensu, radzenia sobie z absurdalnością i formy transgresji jako prowadzące do duchowej przemiany.
