Four basic elements of culture are recognized: Culture is (1) learned, (2) symbolic, (3) shared, and (4) integrated. culture may be viewed as a complex whole in which all parts are related. Culture has a family and group component, but it is not transmitted biologically. The values, beliefs, and traditions of a group must be learned by each person within the family and social community. Culture includes social constructs such as knowledge, beliefs, art, morals, and customs, as well as law. One shared element found in all cultures is an understanding of gender roles, the roles that a particular culture assigns to men and women. Although the world is changing, certain values and beliefs regarding gender roles remain unchanged in many cultures

Generalization: a statement, idea, or principle that has a broad application, and is applied when traits are fairly consistent across cultures and can be identified within a particular group, while keeping the importance of individual differences in mind.
Stereotypes: a set of fixed ideas, often unfavorable, about the members of a group
Prejudice: process of devaluing an entire group because of an assumed behavior, value, or attribute.
Discrimination: refers to policies and practices that harm a group and its members.
Race: a socially constructed concept that tends to group people by common descent, heredity, or physical attributes

The link that ties these concepts together is that they are a general perceived notion and/or trait that has been passed down through generations. Our idea of culture is the totality of socially transmitted behavioral patterns, beliefs, values, customs, lifeways, and art that has shaped our worldview. Although certain behaviors may be anticipated and understood by using generalizations and the differences are invariably present among individuals within cultures, a lot of these perceived notions and/or traits can be offensive especially if acted upon. Often times this leads to negative results in health.
