Health and Cross-Cultural Psychology: Toward Applications

Health, in the sense of 'quality of life' rather than 'absence of disease', is a universal goal in spite of cultural variations in the way it is defined and achieved. This book provides material from cross-cultural psychology for application in the development of a healthy society. Health and Cross-Cultural Psychology, while it points to leads for action, is not designed as a book of recipes - rather it summarizes the relevant research findings and scrutinizes the methodology through which they were established. Where necessary, the contributors focus on the need and direction for future research.Berry, John is the author of 'Health and Cross-Cultural Psychology: Toward Applications', published 1988 under ISBN 9780803930391 and ISBN 0803930399.
