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 used in a psychiatric residential treatment center servicing Hawaii's multi-cultured population of children, youth and their families. It has been adapted for clinical use from the anthropological works of Kluckhohn and Strodbeck, and is called the value orientations model.
