"As I sat down to write this chapter about the use of life story methods for capturing cultural-historical aspects of LGBTQ+ identity development, I was transported back in time... It was a hot summer day in 2004. I had travelled back from the "big city" where I was attending university to visit my family. This was my first summer away from home. At that moment, my family and I sat in the parking lot of a diner, having just finished breakfast at a local greasy spoon-a ritualistic send off before I started my four-hour return drive. In those moments, our car felt unusually cramped. My dad was in the back seat with me, my mom and brother in the front. I didn't have much of an appetite that morning knowing that in mere minutes, I would come out to my family as gay. On our way out of the restaurant, walking to our separate cars, I somehow managed to muster up the courage to tell my family there was something important I wanted them to know. So, there I was, in the backseat of the car with a message for my family. Looking back on it, the message was more like an ultimatum. They could learn to love this new version of me, as I had done, or our routine "see you later" might be a "goodbye." This is the beginning of my story-both my coming out story and, in some ways, my life story. Thankfully, my family is still an important part of this story"--

Cross-cultural research is now an undeniable part of mainstream psychology and has had a major impact on conceptual models of human behavior. Although it is true that the basic principles of social psychological methodology and data analysis are applicable to cross-cultural research, there are a number of issues that are distinct to it, including managing incongruities of language and quantifying cultural response sets in the use of scales. Cross-Cultural Research Methods in Psychology provides state-of-the-art knowledge about the methodological problems that need to be addressed if a researcher is to conduct valid and reliable cross-cultural research. It also offers practical advice and examples of solutions to those problems and is a must-read for any student of culture.

The fourth edition of Teaching Culture and Psychology (previously Cross-Cultural Explorations) provides an array of carefully designed instructor resources and student activities that support the construction and implementation of courses on culture and psychology. Revised and expanded from previous editions, the book enables instructors to use selected activities appropriate for their course structure. Part One explores a variety of pedagogical challenges involved in teaching about culture and psychology and details specific strategies for addressing these challenges. Part Two (instructor resources) and Part Three (student handouts) center around 90 activities designed to encourage students to think critically about the role of culture in a wide range of psychology content areas. These activities are based on current and classic cross-cultural research and take the form of case studies, self-administered scales, mini-experiments, database search assignments, and the collection of content-analytic, observational, and interview data. For each activity, instructors are provided with a lecture/discussion module as well as suggestions for variations and expanded writing assignments. Student handouts are available in this text as well as on the Routledge website as fillable forms. Contributing to the inclusion of cultural perspectives in the psychology curriculum, this wide-ranging book enables instructors to provide students with hands-on experiences that facilitate the understanding and application of major concepts and principles in the study of culture and psychology, making it ideal for cultural psychology, anthropology, sociology, and related courses.

This unique text covers the core research methods and the philosophical assumptions that underlie various strategies, designs, and methodologies used when researching cultural issues. It teaches readers why and for what purpose one conducts research on cultural issues so as to give them a better sense of the thinking that should happen before they go out and collect data. More than a "methods text", it is about all the steps that go into doing cross-cultural research. It discusses how to select the most appropriate methods for data analysis and which approach to use, and details quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods for experimental lab studies and ethnographic field work.
