Dynamic sizing is the ability to recognize and work with cultural differences in individual patients, rather than relying on overgeneralized stereotypes or assumptions. This would allow a health provider to acknowledge the collectivistic tendencies of many Asian Americans without assuming that all Asian Americans exhibit the same tendencies or behaviors. Culture-bound syndromes refer to specific illnesses or conditions that are primarily observed within particular cultural contexts, and may not apply to all Asian Americans. Intergenerational conflict refers to tension or disagreement between generations within a family or community, which is not necessarily linked to cultural tendencies. Ethnic gloss refers to the use of broad, vague, or inaccurate terms to describe cultural groups, which would not be an effective approach for an understanding healthcare provider.
