Cultural psychology is a branch of psychology that focuses on the influence of culture on human psychological behavior and aims to uncover the mechanisms of mutual integration between culture and psychology.
Brief History
The origins of cultural psychology can be traced back to the research of Wilhelm Wundt, often regarded as the father of experimental psychology. He divided psychology into two branches: individual psychology, or experimental psychology, and folk psychology. Folk psychology, which focused on aspects of human psychology closely related to social and cultural influences, exhibited a strong inclination toward what we now recognize as cultural psychology. The Soviet psychologist Lev Vygotsky and his colleagues pioneered the socio-cultural-historical school, which conducted long-term research on advanced psychological functions from a cultural-historical perspective. In 1982, Kenneth L. Kağıtçıbaşı first introduced the term "cultural psychology" in the modern sense,...

Several prominent scholars in the Social Sciences have defended the need for a new way of studying the relationship between culture and the individual. Over the last three decades, it has been common to find studies under the heading of Cultural Psychology (CP), which have focussed on the role of culture in historical and ontogenetic development. However, among the defenders of CP, there have been specific disagreements over theoretical and methodological aspects of the project. This lack of agreement is revealed by the different conceptions of the role of meaning and social practice in human psychological functioning. This paper aims is to analyze some different approaches to CP, and the role of meaning plays in its constitution. For us, the central claim of CP is that the human mind should be seen as inter-penetrated by intentional worlds that are culturally and historically situated, and this psychology must to study the ways psyche and culture; person and context, self and other...

This article argues that the current popularity of culture in psychology is likely to continue in the future if the conception of the person that psychologists adopt includes culture as an integral part of human nature. This thesis is illustrated in a brief historical account. Although the current discourse in psychology is marked by a metatheoretical tension between natural and cultural science approaches to mind, a consensus is emerging that assumes a materialist (or physicalist) ontology, a Darwinian evolutionism, and cultural-historical embeddedness of psychological processes and their development in social context. In this emerging consensus, culture is conceptualized as a species-specific property of Homo sapiens, which transmits information not only genetically across generations, but also symbolically between and within generations. Culture is thus integral to the ongoing process of tool use and symbol manipulation. Contemporary issues in the culture-mind relation are discus...
