Problems of transcultural communication.
Verbal and non-verbal communication occurs at various levels of meaning and explicitness. This is most obvious in transcultural exchanges and is therefore present in most of our psychological testing for which tests are used from other cultures. The confusion and invalid results of tests used with Ethiopian neurotic students and a group of normal students is used to demonstrate the point.
