      abstract = {Identity is a construct strongly rooted and still  predominantly studied in Western (or WEIRD; Western,  educated, industrialized, rich, and democratic) contexts  (e.g., North American and Western European). Only recently  has there been more of a conscious effort to study identity  in non-Western (or non-WEIRD) contexts. This edited volume  investigates identity from primarily a non-Western  perspective by studying non-Western contexts and  non-Western, minority, or immigrant groups living in  Western contexts. The contributions (a) examine different  aspects of identity (e.g., personal identity, social  identity, online identity) as either independent or  interrelated constructs; (b) consider the associations of  these constructs with aspects of intergroup relations,  acculturative processes, and/or psychological well-being;  (c) document the advancement in research on identity in  underrepresented groups, contexts, and regions such as  Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, and South  America; and (d) evaluate different approaches to the study  of identity and the implications thereof. This book is  intended for cultural or cross-cultural academics,  practitioners, educators, social workers, postgraduate  students, undergraduate students, and scholars interested  in studying identity. It provides insight into how identity  in non-Western groups and contexts may both be informed by  and may inform Western theoretical perspectives.},
