Who would study psychology if they didn't have some kind of problem?

Chapter 67 Impressions of Wang An
Looking at the girl who suddenly appeared before me, as bright as the sunshine.

Shen Bing blinked, feeling that things seemed to have exceeded his expectations.

Nan Zhuren introduced her, saying, "Her name is Xia Tian."

Shen Bing tilted his head. Was this something he cared about?

The teacher, who looked to be about 25 years old, smiled and said, "Oh, it's Xia Tian. Professor Nan mentioned to me before that he wanted to launch a collaborative project with the law school. I didn't expect the court to send you to handle it."

Before coming here, when discussing the project with the School of Psychology, Nan Zhuren proposed to bring in the School of Law, the reason being to expand the field of [forensic psychology] and at the same time improve the "informed consent form" that clients need to sign before consultation by using legal provisions.

After all, existing informed consent forms mainly rely on foreign templates. Given that psychological counseling in China started relatively late, how to reasonably localize each stage of psychological counseling has always been a key focus of academic research.

For things like the "Informed Consent Form," there is currently no unified standard in China. We can only refer to whichever institution provides the most authoritative form or which psychologist's form is more credible.

Faced with the words of a teacher who appeared to be 25 years old.

Xia Tian explained with a smile, "My teacher is very supportive of this project. He said that if it goes well, we might even be able to publish a short paper."

This is a very good reason for Nan Zhuren to now establish a legitimate relationship with the law school and conduct business in the name of the project.

Nan Zhuren was somewhat surprised that the 25-year-old teacher seemed to know Xia Tian so well.

Not only this teacher, but even the big-nosed and small-eyed person gave Xia Tian a "I know her" look.

The 25-year-old teacher explained, "Xia is quite active at school. She receives the national scholarship every year and has participated in many provincial and national projects. She has also collaborated with our college on several research projects before. And—Xia, it seems you've already been accepted into a graduate program, right?"

“Yes,” Xia Tian answered the teacher, her eyes smiling as she looked at Nan Zhuren.

Shen Bing looked enlightened and accepted Nan Zhuren's explanation.

If a collaboration with the law school can be reached to revise the "Informed Consent Form," then Yannuo Center will have something with exclusive copyright, which will naturally benefit its reputation in the industry.

That reason is plausible.

But as for Nan Zhuren's real reasons, those who know, know.

After being led to a classroom in the psychology department that had been specially set up for this project, and after everyone had gone about their own business.

Nan Zhuren pulled Xia Tian aside by herself.

How much do you know about this matter?

His "this matter" refers to the affair between Wang An and Chen Ting.

Nan Zhuren came to Jiangda University to help Chen Ting "cut off the stressor," but it would have been better to contact Chen Ting to carry out this process.

But the last consultation progressed too quickly; Chen Ting not only recounted her traumatic events but had even grown to the point where she could confront her mother.

Based on the principle of systematic desensitization, Nan Zhuren still intends to let Chen Ting stabilize in the short term, giving the girl enough time to consolidate and grow.

After all, confronting Wang An is a crucial and dangerous step. One wrong move could lead to a regression in the consultation process, rendering all previous efforts futile.

Therefore, Nan Zhuren planned to first conduct a preliminary investigation, gather information about Wang An, and make thorough preparations.

At that moment, Nan Zhuren looked at Xia Tian, ​​who had helped him before and obtained Chen Ting's contact information.

I just don't know how much she understands about this matter now.

"I don't know anything," Xia Tian said with a smile. "I'm waiting for you to tell me."

Nan Zhuren paused in his speech.

Seeing Nan Zhuren's disbelieving expression, Xia Tian explained:

“I know this kind of thing definitely involves privacy and is not convenient for me to know. I won’t ask about things that I shouldn’t know. We law students also have relevant legal provisions, and our ethics and morality are no worse than those of you psychological counselors.”

Xia Tian wrinkled her nose, a gesture that Nan Zhuren found strangely reminiscent of a cat. "And now that you've come to me for help again, you'll definitely tell me what I want to know, right?"

Nan Zhuren lowered his head, then raised it again.

Lower your head again.

He spoke with obvious apology: "I need to get the visitor's permission before I can talk about anything too detailed..."

It's kind of weird; they ask for help but don't tell the person the details.

Xia Tian spoke first: "I understand, I can roughly guess what it is."

"So, what do you need me to do now?"

Seeing the other person's "it's all okay" expression, Nan Zhuren actually took a few seconds to manage his emotions before he could continue speaking.

"Next, I'd like you to find a few classmates to work on this project together, and then find Wang An to be the mentor. This will give me the opportunity to get to know him."

The university professor's whereabouts were uncertain, and Nan Zhuren had not yet reached the point of desperation, so a legitimate reason was needed to create an opportunity to contact Wang An.

If you are the project leader, you will usually look for an administrative teacher, such as a teacher from the School of Psychology who is between 25 and 35 years old.

Professional lecturers like Wang An typically don't come.

Unless a student is participating in a professional competition and needs a professional teacher to serve as their instructor.

If it were a professor in their forties or fifties, they might just be nominally affiliated with the professor; but a young teacher like Wang An still needs to guide students to achieve some results to enrich his resume.

They will take it very seriously, and thus create opportunities to meet with Nan Zhuren.

Xia Tian laughed and said, "I can finish this kind of small project by myself..."

Nan Zhuren shook his head firmly: "No, let's find a few classmates to form a team. Then we can have a meeting together later. That would be better."

Xia Tian glanced at Nan Zhuren's expression for a few seconds, then his lips curled up slightly as he agreed, "Okay, I'll go find her later."

……

Nan Zhuren felt somewhat relieved.

After thinking for a moment, he asked again, "In your eyes, what kind of person is Wang An?"

Know yourself and the enemy, a hundred battles will never end.

Although some impressions were obtained from Chen Ting's account, there may be some cognitive biases due to the victim's circumstances.

Nan Zhuren needs more sources of information.

Similarly, the information obtained from Xia Tian is only for reference, and Nan Zhuren will personally observe later.

Xia Tian thought for a moment and said, "Teacher Wang is very young, so he usually gets along well with us and is very approachable..."

Summer spoke slowly, and her overall comments were mostly positive.

Nan Zhuren listened slowly, then asked, "Are there any rumors about him?"

Rumors are often credible, and some essential information can be gleaned from them. Even if the information in a rumor is false, it can still reveal the attitude of the rumor-monger towards the recipient.

It has some reference value.

If all else fails, repeating the rumor in front of the person can also have a certain effect on breaking their defenses and make it easier to carry out subsequent measures.

Summer thought for a moment: "There really is..."
