《亚洲社会心理学杂志》创刊十周年特刊（SI）肩负着回顾过去、展望现在和展望未来的三重任务。在此过程中，它与2005年举行的第六届亚洲社会心理学协会两年一度的会议相结合，会上几位主旨发言人（Atsumi、霍夫施泰德、Leung和Ward）也谈到了同样的三驾马车的问题。连同邀请邱和松本的评论，他们形成了这个SI的实质。作为SI的编辑，我们多次阅读这些论文，因为它们是什么，同样具有启发性，因为它们不是什么。在这个过程中，我们反思了亚洲社会心理学的社会性，同样有趣的是，亚洲人的社会心理学。我们得出的（初步）结论是，一种在亚洲、属于亚洲、为亚洲服务的实用的、创造性的社会心理学，把自己定义为一个类似的网络有头脑的合作者聚集在一个中心目标周围，而不是作为一个地理或遗传实体，将有最好的机会实现亚洲社会心理学的潜力。
This Special Issue (SI), which marks the 10th anniversary of the Asian Journal of Social Psychology, carries the triple roles of taking stock of the past, scouting the present, and envisioning the future. In so doing, it connects with the 6th biennial conference of the Asian Association of Social Psychology held in 2005, in which several keynote speakers (Atsumi, Hofstede, Leung, and Ward) addressed the same troika of concerns. Together with invited commentary from Chiu and Matsumoto they form the substance of this SI. As SI Editors, we read the papers several times, for what they were and, just as enlightening, for what they were not. In the process, we reflected on what is social about Asian social psychology and, equally intriguing, on what is Asian about it. The (tentative) conclusion that we have reached is that a practical and creative social psychology that is in, of, and for Asia, and defines itself as a network of like-minded collaborators gathered around a central purpose rather than as a geographic or genetic entity will have the best chance of realizing the potential of Asian social psychology.
