Back to Week at a Glance
(
Throughout this term, we have been exploring the many ways that cultures differ. As we seek to
understand people who come from different backgrounds, we are naturally led to apply new levels of
sensitivity to issues such as justice, health, and peace. These are issues that the field of Psychology is
concerned with, as we shift away from a past dominated by a White, Western, and largely male
viewpoint and seek to embrace true cultural sensitivity. Like Walden, Psychology is actively applying
research to issues of equity, diversity, inclusion, and human dignity. The final chapter in our text
APPLIED CROSS-CULTURAL
PSYCHOLOGY
(

outlines a number of applications of Cross-Cultural Psychology to issues that are near to the heart of
Walden and increasingly crucial for our society.
For this Week’s Discussion, you will develop one meaningful and well thought out question that is
inspired by this week’s Learning Resources. Your question should help your colleagues critically
examine some aspect of Applied Cross-Cultural Psychology.
Review Chapter 12 of your course text and identify an area of application you find particularly
interesting or worthy of further discussion.
Review the Learning Activity– Developing Discussion Questions That Promote Critical Thinking. This
activity will guide you in how to write a question for this week’s Discussion post that can
generate critical thinking in your colleagues.
Consider what question you could ask your colleagues that promotes critical thinking about
applications of Cross-Cultural Psychology.
Post one meaningful, open-ended question that requires critical thinking about some aspect of
individualism vs. collectivism.
Support the responses within your assignment post with credited evidence from the assigned
learning resources (including sentence-level citations). Provide a reference list in APA Style for
resources you used in the post.
