Description

"This chapter is an introduction to applied cross-cultural data analysis, and addressed the concepts of culture and how culture can be integrated into social work research. We review the definition of culture and how it has been understood and examined in research across different disciplines. We present an overview of the theories and frameworks of cross-cultural analysis, and provide the lens through which culture is examined through the techniques and approaches that are used in this book"--
