Abstract

Videotaped family interactions illustrating parent-child behaviour from American and Japanese clinical samples were assessed by psychiatrists and medical students in Hawaii and Tokyo, to study the effects of culture on the evaluation of behaviour. The results suggest that cultural factors significantly influence the assessment of inter personal behaviour, particularly highly overt and culturally patterned behaviour, e.g. parent-child roles and functions.
