Berry John W., Poortings Y.H., Breugelmans S.M., Chasiotis A., Sam D.L. Cross-Cultural Psychology: Research and Application

3rd edition. — Oxford University Press, 2011. — 668 p. — ISBN: 978-0-521-74520-8.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 presents 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 several 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-color, 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 web links.Similarities and Differences in Behavior across Cultures
