Course Contents

This course explores how culture influences human behavior, cognition, and emotions. We will examine the theoretical and empirical foundations of cross-cultural psychology, focusing on how psychological processes differ across diverse cultures and how culture interacts with psychological functioning.

• Cross-Cultural Psychology: Research and Applications by John W. Berry, Ype H. Poortinga, Seger M. Breugelmans, Athanasios Chasiotis, and David L. Sam. (2012). • Matsumoto, D., & Juang, L. (2022).

Cheating policy: Cheating is a form of academic misconduct and will not be tolerated. Any attempts at cheating will result in a failing grade in the course or disciplinary action. In group studies, if academic honesty is violated, all the group members will be held responsible for the incident. AI writing is also a major violation and will not be tolerated.
