Sociodemographic Factors Influence Cultural Values
The gross generalization that East is collectivistic and West is individualistic overlooks the within-group variability among East Asians in the current era of social change and globalization. The aim of this study was to disentangle the role of sociodemographic factors, ethnic heritage culture, and immigration in shaping the individualistic-collectivistic value orientations of Korean mothers and their fifth-grade children residing in rural Korea…

Discourse analysis indicated that parents and the teacher often use different criteria to evaluate children's progress; that is, they have different goals for child development. The teacher's goals are usually more individualistic, whereas the parentS' goals are often more collectivistic
