When Hall, Yip, and Zárate (2016) suggested that cultural psychology focused on reporting differences between groups, they described comparative research conducted in other fields, including cross-cultural psychology. Cultural psychology is a different discipline with methodological approaches reflecting its dissimilar goal, which is to highlight the cultural grounding of human psychological characteristics, and ultimately make culture central to psychology in general. When multicultural psychology considers, according to Hall et al., the mechanisms of culture's influence on behavior, it treats culture the same way as cross-cultural psychology does. In contrast, cultural psychology goes beyond treating culture as an external variable when it proposes that culture and psyche are mutually constitutive. True psychology of the human experience must encompass world populations through research of the ways in which (a) historically grounded sociocultural contexts enable the distinct meaning systems that people construct, and (b) these systems simultaneously guide the human formation of the environments.

当霍尔、叶和萨拉特（2016 年）提出文化心理学侧重于报告群体之间的差异时，他们描述了其他领域的比较研究，包括跨文化心理学。文化心理学是一个不同的学科，其方法学方法反映了其不同的目标，即强调人类心理特征的文化基础，并最终使文化成为一般心理学的核心。当多元文化心理学根据霍尔等人的观点考虑文化对行为的影响机制时，它将文化视为与跨文化心理学相同的方式。相比之下，文化心理学超越了将文化视为外部变量的处理方式，提出文化和心理是相互构成的。人类经验的真正心理学必须通过研究以下方式来涵盖世界人口：（a）历史上有基础的社会文化背景使人们构建的独特意义系统得以实现，以及（b）这些系统同时指导人类对环境的形成。（PsycINFO 数据库记录）
