American and Brazilian students attended
a 3 hour morning class at ACBEU, Vitoria District.
The 12 Brazillian students attending the class were
English-speaking psychology majors from several
public and private institutions in Salvador.
On some days, Brazilian guest speakers
provided additional insights into
Brazilian history, culture, and economics.

Without the help of Brazilian students, the cross-cultural projects could not have been completed. Some of the Brazilian students hope to visit the United States to help present the results at conferences. UW Oshkosh students send a sincere thank you to our Brazilian team mates listed below:

Brazilian students who paticipated in the cross-cultural studies:
Debora Abenhaim
Melissa Correia
Veronica de Nova Quadros Cortes
Danilo Flaviio Santos da Cruz
Carolina Duarte
Joana Corvalho Faria
  Zelia Brandao Fernanzez
Mariana Martini
Joao Martins
Ana Luisa de Andrade Merces
Stella Maria de Sa Sarmento
Isabel Marcedo Torres

Brazilian and American students formed research teams to design and complete cross-cultural studies. They translated and back translated surveys, collected data in field locations in various areas of the city, procured participants for the studies, conducted a statistical analysis of results and presented results to an audience of host families and friends in Salvador.
