This volume contains contributions from 24 internationally known
scholars covering a broad spectrum of interests in cross-cultural
theory and research. This breadth is reflected in the diversity of
the topics covered in the volume, which include theoretical
approaches to cross-cultural research, the dimensions of national
cultures and their measurement, ecological and economic foundations
of culture, cognitive, perceptual and emotional manifestations of
culture, and bicultural and intercultural processes.
In addition to the individual chapters, the volume contains a
dialog among 14 experts in the field on a number of issues of
concern in cross-cultural research, including the relation of
psychological studies of culture to national development and
national policies, the relationship between macro structures of a
society and shared cognitions, the integration of structural and
process models into a coherent theory of culture, how personal
experiences and cultural traditions give rise to intra-cultural
variation, whether culture can be validly measured by self-reports,
the new challenges that confront cultural psychology, and whether
psychology should strive to eliminate culture as an explanatory
variable.
