Abstract

Cultural Domain Analysis (CDA) is a theoretical and methodological approach rooted in cognitive anthropology that investigates how people in a particular culture organize, structure, and perceive ideas. Beginning in the 1960s, CDA developed into a powerful tool for collecting and analyzing data, with applications extending beyond anthropology into other fields, including public health and other social sciences. This paper outlines the procedures and methods used in CDA, its strengths and limitations, and its potential utility in breastfeeding studies. Basic features of key techniques within CDA that include free listing, pile sorting, and cultural consensus analysis are discussed. The paper also highlights how CDA seamlessly combines qualitative and quantitative data to generate culturally meaningful social theories that can inform the development of contextually relevant policies and interventions.

文化领域分析

文化领域分析（CDA）是一种植根于认知人类学的理论和方法，它研究特定文化中的人们如何组织、构建和感知思想。从 20 世纪 60 年代开始，CDA 发展成为收集和分析数据的有力工具，其应用范围已超出人类学，扩展到其他领域，包括公共卫生和其他社会科学。本文概述了 CDA 所使用的程序和方法、其优势和局限性，以及其在母乳喂养研究中的潜在用途。本文讨论了 CDA 中关键技术的基本特征，包括自由列表、堆积排序和文化共识分析。本文还强调了 CDA 如何将定性和定量数据完美地结合在一起，从而产生具有文化意义的社会理论，为制定与背景相关的政策和干预措施提供依据。
