Cross-cultural differences have many important implications for
social identity, social cognition, and interpersonal behavior. The
10th volume of the Ontario Symposia on Personality and Social
Psychology focuses on East-West cultural differences and
similarities and how this research can be applied to cross-cultural
studies in general. Culture and Social Behavior covers a range of
topics from differences in basic cognitive processes to broad level
cultural syndromes that pervade social arrangements, laws, and
public representations. Leading researchers in the study of culture
and psychology describe their work and their current perspective on
the important questions facing the field. Pioneers in the field
such as Harry Triandis and Michael Bond present their work, along
with those who represent some newer approaches to the study of
culture. Richard E. Nisbett concludes the book by discussing the
historical development of the field and an examination of which
aspects of culture are universal and which are culture-specific. By
illustrating both the diversity and vitality of research on the
psychology of culture and social behavior, the editors hope this
volume will stimulate further research from psychologists of many
cultural traditions. Understanding cultural differences is now more
important than ever due to their potential to spark conflict,
violence, and aggression. As such, this volume is a "must have" for
cultural researchers including those in social, cultural, and
personality psychology, and interpersonal, cultural, and political
communication, anthropology, and sociology.
