Identity development is used as an example. The theory of plantation economy, and Best’s (2001) discourse on race, class, and ethnicity in the Caribbean are examined. Locus of control and values emerge as culturally-relevant psychological variables that might account for differences among social groups, based on their varying experiences of the region’s socio-history; and perhaps variables that might account for group differences in identity development. Empirical research linking these variables is briefly reviewed. Suggestions to guide future studies are made. 2013 artículo científico 0034-9690 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=28430082017 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=284 Revista Interamericana de Psicología/Interamerican Journal of Psychology application/pdf Sociedad Interamericana de Psicología Revista Interamericana de Psicología/Interamerican Journal of Psychology (Puerto Rico) Num.2 Vol.47 |
