Gender and Culture in Psychology introduces new approaches to the
psychological study of gender that bring together feminist
psychology, socio-cultural psychology, discursive psychology and
critical psychology. It presents research and theory that embed
human action in social, cultural and interpersonal contexts. The
book provides conceptual tools for thinking about gender, social
categorization, human meaning-making, and culture. It also
describes a family of interpretative research methods that focus on
rich talk and everyday life. It provides a close-in view of how
interpretative research proceeds. The latter part of the book
showcases innovative projects that investigate topics of concern to
feminist scholars and activists: young teens' encounters with
heterosexual norms; women and men negotiating household duties and
childcare; sexual coercion and violence in heterosexual encounters;
the cultural politics of women's weight and eating concerns;
psychiatric labelling of psychological suffering; and feminism in
psychotherapy.
