College of Nursing and Health Care Professions

When conducting the "Family Interview," please make sure that you inform the individual you choose to interview that you will be using their responses in a compare and contrast cultural paper for HLT-324V. It is important that people give you approval to use their personal stories prior to doing so. Please use this template and the following questions below when conducting your interviews. In addition to these questions, you are required to ask another three questions, which you are to include on this template. Please submit this template with your paper by the end of Topic 2.

Interviews:

Review the "Family Interview " template prior to the interview. Additional space is designated on the template for you to create three additional questions to ask both interviewees (family member and person from another culture). Additional questions should be relevant to the readings or discussion and should provide value to the interview by helping to understand culture.

Some of the questions may include:

1. Family beliefs: Have they changed over generations?

1. Educational and occupational status in the culture and in the family

1. Communication methods: verbal and nonverbal

1. Current family goals/priorities

1. Family member roles and organizational systems

1. Spiritual beliefs: current practice and death and dying

1. Alternative lifestyles

1. Work attitudes and structure

1. What are your family roles/gender roles? How are they the same as or different from those traditionally practiced by your culture (who is the head of the household, who makes decisions, how are decisions made, etc.)?

2. What does your culture and family see as primary family goals (education, marriage, etc.)?

3. What is your culture’s view on alternative lifestyles (living together prior to marriage, domestic partnerships, single parenting, etc.)?
