Answer to Question 1

No answer provided.

Answer to Question 2

The rituals and ceremonies used by diverse cultures reflect the values of those cultures. Health psychologists should understand that those who believe in them should not be ignored and ridiculed. A provider needs to be aware of a person's beliefs in order to treat the person comprehensively. What people believe influences what they do to remedy the situation, and needs to be taken into consideration when receiving advice from a psychologist with a Western viewpoint on how to maintain health and prevent illness.
