\u003ci\u003eCross-Cultural Family Research and Practice\u003c/i\u003e broadens the theoretical and clinical perspectives on couple and family cross-cultural research with insights from a diverse set of disciplines, including psychology, sociology, communications, economics, and more. Examining topics such as family migration, acculturation and implications for clinical intervention, the book starts by providing an overarching conceptual framework, then moves into a comparison of countries and cultures, with an overview of cross-cultural studies of the family across nations from a range of specific disciplinary perspectives. Other sections focus on acculturation, migrating/migrated families and their descendants, and clinical practice with culturally diverse families.\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eStudies cultural influences in couple and family relationships\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eFeatures a broadly interdisciplinary perspective\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eLooks at how cultural differences affect how families are structured and function\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eExplores why certain immigrant groups adapt better to new countries than others\u003c/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eDiscusses why certain countries are better at integrating immigrants than others\u003c/li\u003e\u003c/ul\u003e |
