Several limitations are noted in the study. A third finding in this study was the influence of caregiver characteristics on CJCS scores. Elaine M. Chiu* ABSTRACT.

With this in mind, the concept of cultural frame is important to this study. Etienne Mureinik suggests that an administrative decision cannot be taken to be justifiable unless (a) the decision-maker has considered all the serious objections to the decision taken and has answers which plausibly meet them; (b) the decision-maker has considered all the serious alternatives to the decision taken, and has discarded them for plausible reasons; and (c) there is a rational connection between premises and conclusion -between the information (evidence and argument) before the decision-maker and the decision taken[6], So far we have dealt with the meaning of the culture of justification, which now brings us to the question we posed in the beginning: What does it mean for a democratic country to adopt such a culture and why should it? Thus, race is used in this discussion to provide a context for the life experiences of people based on their identified racial group classification and, when coupled with the discussion on culture, to provide a larger landscape from which to assess and interpret the lives of people.

This may be due to the fact that African American families have traditionally been perceived as more egalitarian and flexible in family roles than are White families (Dillaway & Broman, 2001; McAdoo, 1993). The sample included 48 African American and 121 White caregivers. The form of the interaction for gender was such that among African Americans, males had lower CJCS scores, as compared to females, whereas White males had higher CJCS scores, as compared to females (see Figure 1). Evidence suggests that these differences may be rooted in sociohistorical explanations on the formation of interdependence of family and community members and expected reciprocity between family members seen in African American families unlike in White families (Franklin, 1997).
