 | | Following her research in Asia, she stated her findings as, "Cultural anthropology is concerned with man as a social and psychological phenomenon, and attempts to analyze the forces operative on him in his total environment." (Du Bois, 1959.pp.9). |
 | | She spent two years living in Alor, now part of Indonesia, where she closely studied the culture of the Alorese, focusing mainly on their personality structure (Peabody Museum, 1998). |
 | | She then used this research to compare the culture and personality behaviors of the Alorese to those in the United States and, although her work was cut short by World War II, she made significant progress in the field of ethnoanthropology (Peabody Museum, 1998). |
