| cultural evolution | The continuous developmental process of a culture from simple to complex forms and from homogeneous to heterogeneous qualities. (12 Dec 1998) |

| evolution, cultural | By contrast with biologic evolution, A.G. Motulsky in 1968 pointed out that social evolution is mediated by ideas, shows a rapid (exponential) rate of change, is usually purposeful, often beneficial, is widely disseminated by diverse means, is frequently transmitted in complex ways, further complexity comes from the frequent formation of new ideas and new technologies. Cultural evolution is unique to humans among all forms of life. Human culture required biologic evolution to achieve the human brain. See Evolution, social. (12 Dec 1998) |

| anthropology, cultural | The study of social phenomena which characterise the learned, shared, and transmitted social activities of a particular ethnic group. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cross-cultural comparison | Comparison of various psychological, sociological, or cultural factors in order to assess the similarities or diversities occurring in two or more different cultures or societies. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cross-cultural psychiatry | A field of psychiatry with interest in the study of psychological and psychiatric phenomena as differentially expressed in the cultures of different countries. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cultural anthropology | Study of all aspects of culture resulting from human behaviour, including, among others, speech and language, systems of thought, social systems, and the artifacts produced by a culture. (05 Mar 2000) |
| cultural characteristics | Those aspects or characteristics which identify a culture. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cultural deprivation | The absence of certain expected and acceptable cultural phenomena in the environment which results in the failure of the individual to communicate and respond in the most appropriate manner within the context of society. Language acquisition and language use are commonly used in assessing this concept. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cultural diversity | Coexistence of numerous distinct ethnic, racial, religious, or cultural groups within one social unit, organization, or population. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cultural shock | A form of stress associated with the beginning of an individual's assimilation into a new culture vastly different from that in which he or she was raised. (05 Mar 2000) |
| biologic evolution | Biologic evolution was contrasted with cultural evolution in 1968 by A.G. Motulsky who pointed out that biologic evolution is mediated by genes, shows a slow rate of change, employs random variation (mutations) and selection as agents of change, new variants are often harmful, these new variants are transmitted from parents to offspring, the mode of transmission is simple, complexity is achieved by the rare formation of new genes by chromosome duplication, biologic evolution occurs with all forms of life, and the biology of humans requires cultural evolution. See Cultural evolution. (12 Dec 1998) |
| chemical evolution | The theory of the process by which life arose from inorganic matter. (05 Mar 2000) |
| coincidental evolution | <molecular biology> The tendency for the same mutation to arise simultaneously in all copies of a gene which has been duplicated. (09 Oct 1997) |
| concerted evolution | The ability of two related genes to evolve together as though constituting a single locus. Synonym: coincidental evolution. (05 Mar 2000) |
| convergent evolution | The process where two unrelated structures in unrelated organisms evolve to perform similar functions. (The structures are called analogous structures.) For example: the wings of bats, birds, and insects evolved separately from each other but all are used to perform the function of flying. For another example: the complex eyes of vertebrates, cephalopods (squid and octopus), cubozoan jellyfish, and arthropods (insects, spiders, crustaceans) evolved separately, but all perform the function of vision. (09 Oct 1997) |
| saltatory evolution | The theory that evolution of a new species from an older one may occur as a large jump, such as a major repatterning of chromosomes, rather than by gradual accumulation of small steps or mutations. Compare: emergent evolution. (05 Mar 2000) |
