Cultural psychology

Cultural psychology is the study of how cultures reflect and shape their members' psychological processes.
wikipedia:: Cultural psychology

As Richard Shweder, one of the major proponents of the field, writes, "Cultural psychology is the study of how cultural traditions and social practices regulate, express, and transform the human psyche. This results less in psychic unity for humankind than in ethnic divergences in mind, self, and emotion."
