How Norms Depend on the Presence and Status of Observers
Norms are fundamental to social life, but basic questions about how they are affected by social context remain. Specifically, how do normative constraints depend on the presence and status of observers, and how do such relational contingencies vary across cultures? Using data from more than 25,000 individuals across 90 societies, we test several hypotheses linking normative constraints on everyday behaviors (like arguing, laughing, cursing, kissi…
Which Cultural Dimensions Predict Variations in Emotional Conformity? An Extension of Vishkin et al. (2023) Across 28 Nations
Despite being a classic social psychology topic, cultural variability in conformity has only been examined systematically in the last few decades. Vishkin et al. reported evidence that conformity of experienced emotions and of valued emotions is stronger in individualistic cultures. We tested the replicability of this finding using data from 28 nations ( N = 6,168), incorporating two further relevant cultural predictors of cultural differences: f…
The Dynamics and Structure of Power in Feminine Anti-Affliction Rituals (Guinea-Bissau/Senegal)
In the Manjak kingdom of Babok in Guinea-Bissau, most people continue to adhere to their ancestral religion. They come to maturity within a cosmos made up of invisible entities that both collaborate and conflict with each other. Women are particularly active as diviners and healers in this community. They oversee ritual practices for combatting witchcraft, which enables them to counter affliction and thereby to acquire social power in the realm o…
Perception of the sociology of absences in the agricultural machinery industry supply chain
Studies on supply chain management have been focused on competitiveness from the alignment of suppliers to the company's main strategic interests, with the assumption that this alignment benefits all chains. In this approach, unmet interests of these suppliers are hidden when submitted to the subordination of the main company. This work aimed to understand how the supply chain of the agricultural machinery industry is managed, with the sociology …
Is an Emphasis on Dignity, Honor and Face more an Attribute of Individuals or of Cultural Groups
This study compares the individual-level and sample-level predictive utility of a measure of the cultural logics of dignity, honor, and face. University students in 29 samples from 24 nations used a simple measure to rate their perceptions of the interpersonal cultural logic characterizing their local culture. The nomological net of these measures was then explored. Key dependent measures included three different facets of independent versus inte…
Sex Differences in Self-Construal and in Depressive Symptoms
Sex differences in aspects of independent versus interdependent self-construal and depressive symptoms were surveyed among 5,320 students from 24 nations. Men were found to perceive themselves as more self-contained whereas women perceived themselves as more connected to others. No significant sex differences were found on two further dimensions of self-construal, or on a measure of depressive symptoms. Multilevel modeling was used to test the ab…
Garra dos líderes e capital psicológico dos liderados
A garra (termo aqui traduzido de grit) tem sido encarada como crucial para o sucesso dos indivíduos e a eficácia dos líderes, embora alguns autores não sustentem essa tese. A investigação empírica é escassa e pouco conclusiva. Um possível caminho para melhor compreender este construto passa por considerar condições moderadoras. Aqui discutimos três dessas condições: (1) garra veiculada pelo líder versus garra autoatribuída; (2) humildade expressa…
Who adapts better to Brazil
This study aimed to compare transcultural adaptation for expatriates from Latin American countries with those from developed countries, with the intent of evaluating the premise of a negative association between cultural distance and adaptation for the Brazilian context. A final valid sample of 217 cases was reached. Our results suggest that the theory of cultural distance as a predictor of difficulties in transcultural adaptation cannot be gener…
Confrontando estruturas de valores
Esforços têm sido realizados para desenvolver escalas de mensuração capazes de traduzir o constructo e a estrutura de valores. Entre as existentes estão as escalas SVS - Schwartz Value Survey e o Portrait Values Questionnaire com 40 e 21 itens (respectivamente PVQ-40 e PVQ-21). As duas formas desse último questionário apresentam aplicabilidade mais ampla, por possuírem uma menor quantidade de itens e terem os itens redigidos de forma menos abstra…
Estrangeirismo e Complexo de Gulliver
O objetivo deste estudo foi o de compreender, à luz da abordagem do Complexo de Gulliver, como expatriados voluntários de diferentes origens percebem a relação do brasileiro com o estrangeiro. O estudo, de cunho exploratório e qualitativo, foi realizado por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas com 33 expatriados voluntários, sendo 17 de origem de países desenvolvidos e 16 de países em desenvolvimento. Os resultados sugerem que o estrangeirismo po…
Developing and Evaluating the Social Axioms Survey in Eleven Countries
Based on a deductive, culturally decentered approach, new items were generated to improve the reliability of the original Social Axioms Survey, which measures individuals' general beliefs about the world. In Study 1, results from 11 countries support the original five-factor structure and achieve higher reliability for the axiom dimensions as measured by the new scale. Moreover, moderate but meaningful associations between axiom and Big-Five pers…
