Multicultural Psychology Summary

Multicultural Psychology by Dr. Jeffery Scott Mio (Professor of Psychology and Sociology, Professor of Psychology and Sociology, California State Polytechnic University)

Multicultural Psychology combines research with actual real narratives to examine multicultural issues and capture the richness of diverse cultures. The text covers compelling topics such as differences in world views, communication, racial and cultural identity, development, racism, and immigration, as well as gender, sexuality, age, and ability. It presents a broad foundation for understanding the issues psychologists address when studying culture and the practical applications of theory in today's society. The personal stories and discussions of current events make the text relatable to students' lives.

Multicultural Psychology Reviews

Multicultural Psychology is accessible and personal. The personal experiences placed throughout the chapters really bring the chapter content to life. This book supports a learning experience that emphasizes the phenomenological experience of multicultural individuals, not just theory and findings. * Melissa Heerboth, Mercyhurst University *
This is an excellent text for a multi-cultural or cross-cultural psychology class; it is also appropriate for ethnic studies, counseling psychology courses, and interdisciplinary courses on race and identity. Students of color, women students, gay students, and immigrant students will find themselves in these pages and feel included and respected, and white students and male students will benefit from having their consciousness raised. * Helen Taylor, Bellevue College *
An innovative multicultural text that will engage students in thought about their own cultural identities, strengths, weaknesses, and how it affects their everyday experiences. * Allyson Graf, Elmira College *
