Certified Child Life Specialists' Perceptions Of Effective Psychosocial Interventions For Adolescents In Japanese Hospital Settings, Yukari Stickley

This study investigated culturally authentic representations and perspectives on historical events and political issues presented in children’s picture books on Japanese culture.

Social customs and …
