Was ist Kultur? Sind die Menschen in Indien anders als in Deutschland - und wenn ja, warum? Worauf begründen sich diese Unterschiede und lassen sie sich messen? Mit diesen Fragen befasst sich innerhalb der Psychologie eine ganze Teildisziplin, die sich zur Aufgabe gemacht hat, das Verhältnis von Mensch und Kultur zu beforschen. Schon die Unschärfe des Kulturbegriffs lässt dabei Schwierigkeiten erahnen. Dieses Buch führt in klarer, verständlicher Form in die Themen der Kulturpsychologie bzw. kulturvergleichenden Psychologie ein. Dabei werden die unterschiedlichen Ansichten des Faches verdeutlicht, erläutert und ausführlich diskutiert, so dass dem Leser die eigene Meinungsbildung ermöglicht wird

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
