Ethnopsychology

Ethnopsychology is the study of how different cultural groups understand, interpret, and express psychological processes like emotions, behavior, and mental health. It explores how cultural beliefs, values, and practices influence people’s perceptions of themselves and others, as well as their ways of coping and communicating. By recognizing these cultural influences, ethnopsychology aims to improve mental health care and foster better cross-cultural understanding, respecting the diversity in human psychological experiences rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach.
