Preferred term

culture and relationships  

Definition

  • Our understanding of the interface between culture and relationships is in its infancy. This preliminary level of knowledge results from the traditional research focus on the separate individual that has underemphasized relationships and their crucial importance in human life; cross-cultural social psychology has inherited this narrow emphasis that places the individual at the center of the behavioral drama.
