Cultural Cognition and Psychopathology, Hardback Book

Cultural Cognition and Psychopathology Hardback

Hardback

Description

An interdisciplinary volume which draws together the concepts of culture and cognition in the wider context of psychopathology.

It provides new perspectives on the etiology, treatment, and prevention of psychopathology by challenging current individualistic models and assumptions, while offering new theoretical formulations that take account of the cultural foundation of the cognition process. This book is divided into three sections. The first offers a history of the existing shortsighted models that see the individual as the source of pathological cognitions.

The second section is comprised of nine chapters that examine selected mental disorders.

The final section examines the implications of new models that take account of cultural sources of cognition.

This book will be of interest to clinical and cross-cultural psychology; anthropology, sociology, and professionals in psychology, social services, and public health.
