Interview conducted with T. Hase
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.)?
Traditional Japanese. Patriarch-centric.
Father was a MD – Gastroenterology )1st generation Japanese came to America on a Fulbright
Scholarship
Mom: BS Science Hematology – Penn State: 2nd Generation Parents were farmers in California
until WW@ when they were placed into an internment camp in Arizona.
Maternal Grandmother & Grandfather lived with family and raised the children – Grandmother
Immigrated from Japan and Grandfather was born in Hawaii.
Father was head of household but mother worked and grandparents were the cregivers.
2. What does your culture and family see as primary family goals (education, marriage,
etc.)?
Education, duty, obligation, achievement.
3. What is your culture’s view on alternative lifestyles (living together prior to marriage,
domestic partnerships, single parenting, etc.)?
© 2014. Grand Canyon University. All Rights Reserved.
Japanese culture is centered on the welfare of the many superseding the welfare of the one.
Being ostracized and cast from your group was the ultimate shame and punishment. Alternative
lifestyles are representations of individual choice (or putting one’s self before one’s group) and
while these choices might be publicly tolerated are privately disdained.
4. What are your family’s religious beliefs, and have they changed over generations?
Originally a divided household with Buddhism and Christianity practiced separately by father
and mother. Evolved into a largely secular belief system over time.
5. What are your family’s spiritual beliefs around death and dying?
Make the most out of your life because death is inevitable. Cremation after death no particular
mourning period or rituals.
6. What are your culture’s education and occupational status within the family unit?
Father was a highly educated, medical doctor. Mother was college educated and also employed
as a healthcare professional. Both parents worked while concurrently raising a family.
Grandparents managed the household and raised the children.
7. What is your culture’s preferred communication methods (verbal and nonverbal)?
Family was extremely stoic and displayed few emotions; the focus was more on actions than
words. Direct eye contact with strangers was culturally discouraged as were any outward
displays of weakness. Intellectual, physical, or emotional weakness was suppressed, and any
demonstrations brought shame. Everything was internalized and hidden from public scrutiny.
8. What are your beliefs regarding health care?
Father was a doctor, grandfather was a dentist, great-grandfather was a doctor, uncles were either
doctors or dentists, family friends were all doctors. It goes without saying that the family was
intrinsically very pro-health care.

9. Do you have any cultural beliefs about nutrition or diet?
Japanese consume a lot of salt (pickled vegetables and soy sauce) and starch (rice) but balance
that with a preference of seafood over beef. Consequently, many Japanese suffer from
hypertension.
10. Are there any conflicts between your religious beliefs and your personal beliefs?
No. Myself and my families personal and religious beliefs remain consistent.

paper for HLT-324V. It is important that people give you approval to use their personal stories

end of Module 2.
Interview conducted with Y. Tsombanidis
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.)?
In my family my wife Michelle and I discuss all decisions that affect the family. My role is to
work and bring in the money, my wife’s role is to look after my son, manage the finances and
investments.
My mother is Filipino, my original father was Greek, my stepfather is Hungarian. My parents
immigrated to Australia in the 1970’s.
In Greek culture the father makes the decisions and supports the family but with the death of my
father my mother stepped in as the head of the household.
I grew up with a working mother that made all the decisions and managed everything for the
family. My father worked but my mother earned more.
2. What does your culture and family see as primary family goals (education, marriage,
etc.)?
Australia is a country of immigrants, Australian immigrant culture I believe is to strive for a
better and easier life than your parents had.
Get a education, get married have kids, start a business/get a good job, buy a house, buy a
holiday house and retire early.

3. What is your culture’s view on alternative lifestyles (living together prior to marriage,
domestic partnerships, single parenting, etc.)?
In my family there was no need to move out till you get married.
Australians are built up of so many different nationalities that there are no social expectations,
there might be expectations passed down through the family on how to live your life but still my
family has never pushed any expectations on me that conflicted with the Australian “easy going”
lifestyle.
4. What are your family’s religious beliefs, and have they changed over generations?
My father was Greek Orthodox
My mother is Catholic
I am Greek orthodox but I go to a Catholic church.
My wife is Catholic.
My mothers’ beliefs were never pushed on me, my wife and I have chosen to go to church as a
good habit to instill in my child.
5. What are your family’s spiritual beliefs around death and dying?
We believe life goes on after death, but not too sure on what happens next.
6. What are your culture’s education and occupational status within the family unit?
Australian culture I believe considers occupation more respected than education.
7. What is your culture’s preferred communication methods (verbal and nonverbal)?
I would say my family is very verbal with hand gestures and tone of voice as tools, yet I don’t
think we were better communicators.

8. What are your beliefs regarding health care?
Australia has universal health care that is tax funded and cheap additional private health care
where I chose what provider. The down side is the high tax rate.
If America could provide the same at a low tax rate I would vote for that.
9. Do you have any cultural beliefs about nutrition or diet?
We believe Americans eat too much and the portion size is too big.
In Australia portion size is smaller with focus placed on organic, grass fed, free range,
sustainable produce.
10. Are there any conflicts between your religious beliefs and your personal beliefs?
We have always had a common sense approach to religion and never allowed man made dogma
to make us lose sight of the greater message.
