Cultural Factors in Educational Effectiveness: A Framework for Comparative Research.
Cheng, Yin Cheong
School Leadership & Management, v20 n2 p207-25 May 2000
Many recent studies and debates about East/West cultural differences suffer from major methodological and conceptual drawbacks: confused conceptions, arbitrary use of cultural terms, over-attribution to cultural effects, and ignorance of levels of analysis. A cross-cultural research framework for conceptualizing two or more societies is presented. (Contains 57 references.) (MLH)
