商品簡介
The result of a 2010 international closed workshop on "Cultural Variations in Emotion Regulation and the Treatment of Psychiatric Patients," this collection of essays explores cultural psychology and sensitivity within mental health care. Chapters examine basic relevance of culture in mental health, how culture shapes the identification and understanding of the self, cultural aspects of emotional regulation, and the relationship between culture and diagnosis especially with regard to perceptions of pain, depression, and addiction, among other topics. The work is especially appropriate for mental health care practitioners with interactions among ethnically diverse and migrant communities.
