Culture Awareness

Consciousness of culture Although I plan to travel slowly this summer, I think that we must change our plan now. Instead, I may have to take an accelerated course of sensitivity to what I do not recognize culturally. Perhaps it is because I grew up in Chicago, perhaps the most culturally diverse city in the country. Maybe I have a mixed niece and nephew. Maybe that's because my cousin's last name is Hernandez. Maybe that is because my wife's cousin is an American native. Or perhaps our Polish people are more vulnerable to joke than any other country, but this time I thought they knew other cultures and the feelings of other people.

The purpose of this white paper is to provide advice as a starting point for behavior analysts to further enhance cultural awareness. As explained in this article, cultural perception is based on Baer et al. We are thinking that it reflects. (1968) ("Selection of behavior, stimulation and / or organisms is because they are important to human and society" (p. 92) People involved in action change programs, and important to them People who provide support will have to identify what is important to them, to their society and to their culture.This article describes the importance of understanding the customer's cultural value and emergency I will explain the strategy and the behavior analyst's strategy.Then then I will explain the strategy to incorporate the practice of cultural consciousness into behavior analysis service, monitoring, and career development.Finally, in cultural terms in everyday life I will summarize further discussion and discussion on deepening consciousness.

Cultural perception means understanding the values ​​and beliefs of other cultures. It also means how much you appreciate every aspect of different cultures. Being a cultural consciousness is a journey of life. It is almost impossible to understand all customs and beliefs of all cultures in the world. For medical professionals it is important to try to learn as much about the world's culture as possible. For each patient they work with, they should let them talk about their cultural beliefs and practices. Thus, they always work hard to understand all the different cultures, to better understand their patients and take care!

Cultural abilities are accompanied by cultural awareness. Cultural ability means the ability to incorporate cultural awareness into medical practice. It means understanding and respecting the patient's cultural beliefs and cooperating with them in such a way as to prove that you respect and respect these beliefs. For example, if a patient likes to pray before a meal and family health assistant / personal care assistant provides their prayers before meals to assist, they will practice in a culturally competent way To do. The more they understand different cultures, the more they learn to understand the difference, the more they will become culturally.
