Schneider, Barry H.
Developmental Psychology, v34 n4 p793-97 Jul 1998
Asserts that cross-cultural comparison serves a crucial function as a final test of paradigms emerging from intracultural studies of child and adolescent adjustment and maladjustment. Argues that cross-cultural research's doorkeeper function is best performed when a wide range of cultures is sampled, for which core beliefs are measured directly and multiple sources of information are tapped.
