Abstract
There is a need by clinicians in the human services field for a conceptual model of CULTURE that is relatively simple and useful-a model that is complementary to, and can be easily integrated with, other clinical constructs and approaches. The paper presents a model that might meet such a need. It is a model that is currently being used in a psychiatric residential treatment center servicing Hawaii's multi-cultural population of children, youth and their families. It is a model that has been adapted for clinical use from the anthropological works of Kluckhohn and Strodtbeck, and is called the VALUE ORIENTATIONS model.
