Welcome!
th
Welcome to the 45 annual conference of the Society for Cross-Cultural Research. We are delighted to
welcome you to this stimulating and exciting event.
Since its founding in 1971, SCCR has hosted conferences that offer an ideal forum for sharing and discussing
new ideas, establishing and maintaining professional and personal relationships, and building collaborations
with national and international colleagues. Over the years, it has been inspiring to watch more
graduate students from diverse disciplines participate and develop research networks at SCCR
conferences and pursue careers in fields which encourage cross-cultural research. The connections made at
the SCCR conference can have a lasting impact for scholars from all over the world. By bringing together
passionate and creative researchers, the 2016 SCCR conference offers the opportunity to share ideas, offer
varying perspectives, and establish meaningful connections. We hope that everyone comes away with fresh
ideas and perspectives, continues to be or becomes a part of a growing SCCR community, and gains some
insight into what takes place in cross-cultural and multi-disciplinary research represented here at the SCCR
Portland, Oregon conference.
Known as one of the most vibrant cities in the Northwest, Portland is a unique place to start conversations
that have no borders, that are relevant to many, and that we aim to build on for years to come. As a
conference participant, you can enjoy our Keynote Lectures delivered by such notable scholars as: Ed Hagen
(Washington State University), Catherine Panter-Brick (Yale University), Paul Harris (Harvard University),
Barbara Rogoff (University of California Santa Cruz) and Tony Johnson (Chairman of the Chinook Indian
Nation).
We invite you to discover the local culture of Portland, famous for the large number of independent
microbreweries and food carts that contribute to the unofficial slogan "Keep Portland Weird." Explore
Waterfront Park, located two blocks from the conference venue; Powells “City of Books,” the largest
independent used and new bookstore in the world; the artisan handicrafts; or one of the 279 parks
scattered throughout the city. Portland is a city of beauty, interesting people and fascinating history, known
for its abundant outdoor activities, liberal political values, and beer and coffee enthusiasm.
Lastly, we are very grateful to all of those who have helped in the planning and execution of the many
aspects of this conference. Special thank yous go to Jay Fancher, co-organizer of this conference, for his hard
work and contributions and to Ed Hagen for all of his time and effort as the program designer and

Edward H. Hagen
Challenging Pathology Models of Common "Mental Illnesses”:
The Case of Suicidal Behavior across Cultures
Abstract: According to the NIH, in 2013, 18.5% of US adults had a mental illness. Global estimates are similar,
ranging from 9-19%. Mood disorders are major contributors to these high rates. Unlike common noninfectious diseases like cancer, stroke, and heart disease, rates of depression and other mental illnesses are
higher in young adults. In the absence of infection, no other organ shows such a high rate of dysfunction in
young adults. Either the brain is uniquely vulnerable to malfunction, or many distressing psychological states
have been misclassified as illnesses.
We investigate if suicidal behavior, an important symptom of depression, serves some important evolved
function. Suicide causes more deaths than all wars and homicides combined. There is abundant research on
suicidality in Western populations, but research on suicide among non-Western peoples is limited. Most
notably, few studies analyze suicidality within small scale, non-industrial societies. Using ethnographic data
from 53 cultures, this study tested two evolutionary theories of suicidal behavior: (1) the inclusive fitness
model, which proposes that successful suicide would increase the inclusive fitness of individuals with low
reproductive potential who are a burden on kin, and (2) the bargaining model, which proposes that suicide
attempts are a costly signal of need, with completed suicides an unfortunate byproduct. Results
indicate limited support for the inclusive fitness model, which might apply primarily to older adults in
harsh environments, and widespread support for most elements of the bargaining model, especially among
younger healthy adolescents and adults.
Ed Hagen received his BA in mathematics from UC Berkeley, and spent some time working in an organic
polymer lab before finally deciding to pursue anthropology at UC Santa Barbara, where he got his Ph.D. in
1999. He specializes in evolutionary approaches to drug use and depression. He was hired by WSU in 2007.

Catherine Panter-Brick
Evaluating Humanitarian Action: Stress and Resilience in
Syrian Refugee Youth
Abstract: Recent calls for action in humanitarian research and practice have focused on the need for robust
program evaluation. The main question regards which interventions are shown to effectively abate violence
or promote health in refugee and conflict settings. Notably, group-based education programs that promote
empathetic parenting skills offer the promise of lasting intergenerational change to sustain a culture of peace.
Youth-based psychosocial programs that offer safety, support, and structured activities undertake to alleviate
chronic stress, enhance social and material life skills, and develop resilience.
Drawing from examples of interdisciplinary program evaluation, I argue that three major innovations in
scientific practice are sorely needed for high-quality program implementation and evaluation. For example,
my research consortium evaluated the No Lost Generation program implemented with Syrian refugee youth
with wait-listed controls, stress biomarkers to corroborate subjective reports of mental health, and culturallyrelevant metrics of resilience. Such innovations help to achieve a better understanding of which biological
and psychosocial outcomes are responsive to emergency interventions. This will strengthen the evidence for
strategic investments that put children and families at the heart of efforts to boost health and sustain peace.
Catherine Panter-Brick is Professor of Anthropology, Health, and Global Affairs at Yale University. Her
research addresses issues of risk and resilience in contexts of poverty, homelessness, famine, armed
conflict, and social marginalization. She has published extensively on hope, trauma, violence, and mental
health in the form of systematic reviews and scientific articles, and has co-edited six books, most recently
Pathways to Peace (2014) and Medical Humanitarianism: Ethnographies of Practice (2015). For her work in
humanitarian areas such as Niger and Afghanistan, she has been awarded the Lucy Mair Medal by the
Council of the Royal Anthropology Institute of Great Britain and Ireland. This awards honors excellence in
the application of anthropology to the relief of poverty and distress and to the active recognition of human
dignity.

45th Annual Meeting of the Society forCross-Cultural Research
Friday Keynote Presentation
Paul Harris
Children's Belief in Unobservable Phenomena
Abstract: Thanks to their imagination and to their ability to understand the testimony provided by other
people, young children can construct mental representations of phenomena that they are not ordinarily able to
observe directly. In many cases, they come to believe in the existence of these phenomena. For example, most
young children accept the existence of bacteria, oxygen and the brain, as well as God, the soul and the afterlife. I
will discuss how far children are sensitive to the variable ontological status of such unobservable phenomena.
Paul Harris is a developmental psychologist with interests in the development of cognition, emotion and
imagination. For many years, he taught at Oxford University where he was a Professor of Developmental
Psychology and a Fellow of St John's College. In 1998, he was as elected as fellow of the British Academy. In
2001, he moved to Harvard University where he holds the Victor S. Thomas Professorship in the Graduate
School of Education. His latest book is: ‘Trusting what you’re told: How children learn from others’ (Harvard
University Press, 2012).

Saturday Keynote Presentation
Barbara Rogoff
Learning by Observing and Pitching In: A Cultural Paradigm
Abstract: How do children learn when they have the opportunity to contribute to the range of endeavors of
their family and community? In some communities, children commonly observe the activities around them and
pitch in to help. This approach to learning seems to be especially prevalent in many Mexican and Indigenousheritage communities of the Americas, and less common in communities that segregate children from the range
of activities of their community. In this presentation, Barbara Rogoff discusses key aspects that seem to
characterize this way of learning: Children have opportunities to contribute and take initiative, Children and
adults engage collaboratively, Goals of learning include becoming a responsible contributor, Children are
attentive and contribute to surrounding activities and considerate of the direction of the group,
Communication is based on shared engagement in the activity, and Evaluation serves to support children’s
learning and contributing. These ideas will be illustrated with research on cultural differences among children
from Guatemalan Mayan, Mexican-heritage, and European-heritage US communities as well as observations in
an innovative US school (reported in Learning Together, Oxford University Press, 2001).
Barbara Rogoff is UCSC Foundation Distinguished Professor of Psychology. She is a Fellow of the National
Academy of Education, Association for Psychological Sciences, American Anthropological Association,
American Psychological Association, and American Educational Research Association. She has been Fellow
of the Center for Advanced Study in the Behavioral Sciences, Kellogg Fellow, Spencer Fellow, and Osher
Fellow of the Exploratorium. She has served as Editor of Human Development and committee member on
the Science of Learning for the U.S. National Academy of Science. She received the 2013 Award for
Distinguished Lifetime Contributions to Cultural and Contextual Factors in Child Development, from the
Society for Research in Child Development. Her recent book Developing Destinies: A Mayan Midwife and
Town (Oxford, 2011) received the Maccoby Award of Division 7 of the American Psychological Association.
She recently gave a TEDx talk, based on her research on children learning to collaborate:

ANNUAL AWARDS
SCCR Leigh Minturn Memorial Award for Early Career Cross-Cultural
Research
A. Leigh Minturn (1928 – 1999) was Professor Emerita of Social Psychology at the University of Colorado,
and a past president of SCCR. The obituary of Dr. Minturn written by William Lambert (following her
untimely death in the Egypt Air plane crash tragedy) described her as “...a strong presence, bordering on the
aristocratic, knitting through a scientific meeting and facing questions with characteristic vigor and courage,
drawing upon immense knowledge from cross-cultural lore and generalizations, to systematic, well-planned
research findings and the growing cross-cultural data from experiments.” She was a long-term leader of
SCCR and bequeathed an endowment to SCCR that will make possible web site renovation and many other
growth initiatives. Leigh Minturn mentored many cross-cultural scholars and will have a permanent impact
on SCCR. This award honors her memory and legacy.
