Online Course: Cultural Domain Analysis: Methods for Human Insight Research
Cultural domain analysis (CDA) consists of a set of methods for collecting and analyzing data about how people in a group think about things that somehow go together. The goal is to understand differences in how people in different cultures (or subcultures) view things in the world. CDA comes from anthropology and is used in research in that field, but has wide application in marketing, public health, education, environmental sciences, and other fields.
