Does Culture Influence the Expression of Symptoms? Both the biomedical and cultural idioms of distress perspectives acknowledge that culture may influence the expression of symptoms.

Assessing Psychopathology Across Cultures
Assessing Psychopathology Across Cultures To study mental illness across cultures, one must first be able to identify and then classify mental illness in different cultural contexts (see later section for assessment in clinical treatment). This is one of the most challenging aspects of studying psychopathology across cultures. The most widely used nosological systems were developed […]
