Changing Cultural Practices A Contextualist Framework for Intervention Research

This book offers a contextualist approach both for learning how to affect the incidence and prevalence of behavior and for changing the cultural practices that direct individual behavior. It begins with a philosophical and theoretical framework for analyzing cultural practices and conducting research on how to change them. Then it applies this framework to important areas of cultural practice--tobacco use, childrearing, sexism, and environmental preservation. Finally, the book outlines the development of a science of the changing of cultural practices.Biglan, Anthony is the author of 'Changing Cultural Practices A Contextualist Framework for Intervention Research' with ISBN 9781878978226 and ISBN 1878978225.
