Apsychologist develops a new treatment for depression in the united states that involves teaching people techniques to increase their self-esteem. assuming that the treatment is successful in the united states, should the same treatment be used to treat depression in japan?

I believe the answer is: No, depressed people in Eastern cultures do not devalue themselves like depressed people in Western cultures.

Eastern culture place a really high value on hardwork more than the western culture. So, people in eastern culture tend to see the act of succumbing to depression as being weak, which make them tend to deal it by working even harder to accomplish positive in life.

what are the events? you didnt list any
