If a person's perspective on psychology was described, would you be able to identify it as consistent with the general psychology perspective or the cultural psychology perspective?
General
psychology inherently assumes mind operates under universal laws. We
are all born with the same brain. Cultural psychology our thoughts are
based on the ones around us. I believe the person would line up more
with the cultural psychology perspective because experiences in our
culture are central with certain kinds of experiences. We'll have a
distorted and incomplete understanding of the human mind if we fail to
consider the role of culture.
