The Oxford Handbook of Human Development and Culture, Jensen L.A., 2015.

   This chapter introduces The Oxford Handbook of Human Development and Culture: An Interdisciplinary Perspective, and its hallmark “cultural-developmental approach” to scholarship. The handbook provides a comprehensive synopsis of theory and research on life course development. Experts from disciplines such as anthropology, education, family studies, neuroscience, psychology and sociology integrate findings from cultures around the world, including a focus on historical changes and globalization. The 43 chapters showcase the burgeoning interdisciplinary scholarship that bridges universal and cultural perspectives on human development. This “cultural-developmental approach” is a multifaceted and flexible way to conceptualize theory and research that is in step with the global realities of human development in the 21st century. This chapter includes a description of how the cultural-developmental approach conceptualizes: 1) the entity of analysis, 2) the scope and meanings of concepts, and 3) the nature of theoretical frameworks. Examples to illustrate the argument are drawn from the handbook chapters.




Protecting Privacy.
Privacy in the conduct of research involves many different types of considerations. As Allen (1999) notes, research privacy entails concerns with (a) physical privacy, in terms of providing spatial seclusion; (b) informational privacy, in terms of assuring confidentiality and protection of data; (c) decisional privacy, in terms of allowing individuals and families to make important decisions for themselves, such as those concerning sex, reproduction, or religion; and (d) proprietary privacy, in terms of control over names and other indicators of personal identity. Assuring each type of privacy, however, can only be achieved through taking into account the ecological constraints of different social settings and contrasting cultural definitions and practices related to privacy.

Standard IRB requirements focus on protecting the privacy of the data collected, including undertaking such measures as using participant codes, rather than names, and employing secure methods of data storage. However, such strategies may be insufficient to protect participant privacy in the case of small, close-knit communities, in which recruitment efforts and participation in research may tend to become widely known public activities. In such cases, media reports of research may lead to the public identification and thus violation of the anonymity of members of distinctive cultural or linguistic subgroups (Norton & Manson, 1996).
