Cross-Cultural Psychology is a leading textbook offering senior
undergraduate and graduate students a thorough and balanced
overview of the whole field of cross-cultural psychology. The team
of internationally acclaimed authors present the latest empirical
research, theory, methodology and applications from around the
world. They discuss all domains of behavior (including development,
social behavior, personality, cognition, psycholinguistics, emotion
and perception), and present the three main approaches in
cross-cultural psychology (cultural, culture-comparative, and
indigenous traditions) as well as applications to a number of
domains (including acculturation, intercultural relations and
communication, work and health). With new additions to the writing
team, the third edition benefits from an even broader range of
cross-cultural perspectives. Now in 2-colour, the format is even
more reader-friendly and the features include chapter outlines,
chapter summaries, further reading and an updated glossary of key
terms. This edition also offers an accompanying website containing
additional material and weblinks.
Cross-cultural psychology has come of age as a scientific
discipline, but how has it developed? The field has moved from
exploratory studies, in which researchers were mainly interested in
finding differences in psychological functioning without any clear
expectation, to detailed hypothesis tests of theories of
cross-cultural differences. This book takes stock of the large
number of empirical studies conducted over the last decades to
evaluate the current state of the field. Specialists from various
domains provide an overview of their area, linking it to the
fundamental questions of cross-cultural psychology such as how
individuals and their cultures are linked, how the link evolves
during development, and what the methodological challenges of the
field are. This book will appeal to academic researchers and
post-graduates interested in cross-cultural research.
