Before dialecticism became a topic of empirical inquiry in cultural psychology, scholars in related disciplines has discussed dialecticism as a model of human development, as an essential component of maturity and wisdom. This review chapter bridged these two perspectives, comparing conceptualizations of dialecticism in developmental and cultural psychology. After reviewing historical portrayals of dialecticism in various philosophical traditions, this chapter provides comparison of historical characterizations with the contemporary treatment of dialecticism in human development and cultural psychology. Both streams -- developmental and cross-cultural -- are proposed as essential for an integral understanding of the construct. Subsequently, the chapter discusses the emerging developmental models of dialecticism across the lifespan and reviews the accompanying empirical evidence, situating it in a cross-cultural context. It concludes with an outline of future directions of research on dialectical thought, with attention to psychological and socio-cultural processes engendering dialecticism across the lifespan.

Future Path

Cross-cultural psychology and human development are currently experiencing an exciting period of growth. Segall, Lonner, and Berry have noted that when all psychology finally takes into account the effects of culture on human behavior (and vice versa), terms like cross-cultural and cultural psychology will become unnecessary. At that point, all psychology will be truly cultural. In this chapter, the author defines cross-cultural human development; theoretical perspectives and models; emerging themes, such as contextual influences; applications to social issues; and future directions. As the author has earlier stated, tremendous challenges and opportunities lie ahead and speculating about the future path of cross-cultural psychology is difficult.

© Copyright © 2020 Schwartz, Szabó, Meca, Ward, Martinez, Cobb, Benet-Martínez, Unger and Pantea. The present article proposes an integration between cultural psychology and developmental science. Such an integration would draw on the cultural-psychology principle of culture–psyche interactions, as well as on the developmental-science principle of person↔context relations. Our proposed integration centers on acculturation, which is inherently both cultural and developmental. Specifically, we propose that acculturation is governed by specific transactions between the individual and the cultural context, and that different types of international migrants (e.g., legal immigrants, undocumented immigrants, refugees, asylum seekers, crisis migrants) encounter quite different culture–psyche interactions and person↔context relations. We outline the ways in which various acculturation-related phenomena, such as acculturation operating at macro-level versus micro-level time scales, can be viewed through cultural and developmental lenses. The article concludes with future directions in research on acculturation as an intersection of cultural and developmental processes.

Chapter 16 reflects upon the past contributions of cultural psychology and the directions the discipline will travel in the future. It discusses influential thinkers in the 20th and 21st centuries and reconsiders constructs such as individualism and collectivism. It addresses current and future research endeavors in personality, the self and personality, depression, face, face and self-perceptions, values research, and the connection between values and social change. It also addresses current and future research in development through the subtopics of the Six Cultures Study on Socialization, children as active agents, socialization, education, and parenting. Finally it explores the current and future directions of the topics mental health issues, emotions, applied social psychology, morality, and cultural collisions. This chapter includes a case study, Culture Across Disciplines box, chapter summary, key terms, a What Do Other disciplines Do? section, thought-provoking questions, and class and experiential activities.

Implicit And Explicit

In this chapter, cross-cultural career psychology’s assumptions, methodologies, terminologies, and constructs are examined from a critical psychology perspective. The purpose of this chapter is to utilise critical psychology to challenge cross-cultural career psychology’s implicit and explicit assumptions and its approaches and methodologies to conducting research. Some of cross-cultural career psychology’s terminologies and constructs are examined through a critical psychology lens. Cross-cultural career psychology is also contrasted with cultural psychology. Four critiques of critical psychology toward cross-cultural career psychology are addressed: the serviceable other, epistemology, universality, and individualism/collectivism. Each critique focuses on problems that are found in cross-cultural career psychology. Topics current to cross-cultural career psychology research are reflected on, such as work/family, immigrants, refugees, and their intersections. The chapter concludes with suggestions for future directions of the field.

The Many

The role of electron microscopy and associated techniques is assured in diagnostic pathology. At the present time, most of the progress has been made on tissues examined by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and correlated with light microscopy (LM) and by cytochemistry using both plastic and paraffin-embedded materials. As mentioned elsewhere in this symposium, this has revolutionized many fields of pathology including diagnostic, anatomic and clinical pathology. It began with the kidney; however, it has now been extended to most other organ systems and to tumor diagnosis in general. The results of the past few years tend to indicate the future directions and needs of this expanding field. Now, in addition to routine EM, pathologists have access to the many newly developed methods and instruments mentioned below which should aid considerably not only in diagnostic pathology but in investigative pathology as well.
