Abstract
The process of the formation of illness representations is described, with special attention to the role of culture in this process. Illnes representations have strong effects on the emotional and coping reactions of the patient. Also via other ways, culture has an influence on the interaction of the patient with the providers of care, for example in terms of the risk of non-compliance with medical advice. In this paper the implications of these relations for practice are explored.
