This scientific paper presents the different cultural perspectives on mental health, with the cultures compared being Norwegian and Chinese. First, the term culture is examined in detail and defined, with the aim of creating a thematic basis. Second, Hofstede's six cultural dimensions are explained. This is followed by the definition of mental health, and the interrelationship between culture and mental health is elaborated and examined afterwards. To give an insight into the cultural perspectives on mental health in Norway and China, an overview of the development and perspectives of the mental health concept within the cultures is given.
