How valid are our self-perceptions in relation to other cultures? How receptive are we to the viewpoints of other cultures? In this volume, an international team of experts examines the many facets of the cross-cultural experience, including: cross-cultural testing and assessment; the psychological effects of acculturation; the role of foreign students; occupational and organizational psychology; acculturation and emotional and physical health; and cross-cultural orientation programmes.
