As one might expect, cultural psychology is no different. The author of this brief report has been asked to consider a brief case study and example from the cultural psychology field. Specifically, the author has been asked to go to a grocery store or restaurant that is different than one's own culture.

Included in that would be items such as the narrative of the article, the methods and samples used, the reporting/findings delivered, the relevance to the class and a few other things. While it would be optimal to be a "fly on the wall" in areas of different cultures, there is the recognition and reaction that reflects that one is not of that culture, even if it is subtle.

The above, it would seem, should not be surprising and researchers need to be careful (Cartwright, 2016; Mendoza, 1989)
As for the article that was to be reviewed for this assignment, the author found the following answers in the article. As the subject of the article suggests, there was an assessment of the effects on participation (and the activeness of the above) when it comes to market research. The authors start straight away by saying that participation in market research can determine the experiences of consumers and the evaluations of marketing services. To prove this point, the article's authors used…
