ABSTRACT
Chinese psychology has also been influenced by encounters with the West. Some of the earliest Western influence on Chinese psychology came from Jesuit missionaries who traveled to China in the 16th and 17th centuries. We continue this chapter with a brief overview of some of these Jesuit scholars who have particular relevance for Chinese psychology, including, Matteo Ricci (1552-1610), Julius Alenis (1582-1649), and Franciscus Sambiasi (1582-1649).
