Cultural relations -- Psychology

Indeks : p.488-522 ; p.440-487 ; This book brings together some excellent suggestions by reviewers and users of the previous edition with contemporary new and exciting work in cross-cultural psychology. Foremost among these evolutions in the field concerns our understanding exactly what culture is in the first place. Our perspective is that there is much to be gained by first understanding why it is that all humans have culture and how human culture is different from nonhuman cultures. This provides another, perhaps deeper and definitely more complex, understanding of what culture and its relationship to psychological processes. Understanding human culture within this larger perspective will help us better understand differences among human cultures. The book provides a better, more sophisticated, more nuanced, understanding of culture and its relationship to psychological processes.
