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…
Are all kind acts equal? Exploring the role of prosocial act characteristics in actor’s positive affect
In this paper, we use data from a longitudinal online study to examine how characteristics of prosocial behaviors influence the level of positive affect they produce. Although much work has found that prosocial behaviors benefit those who enact them, the question remains if and how these effects vary based on characteristics of those acts. Using models that adjust for co-occurrence among act characteristics, we find that positive affect produced …
Culture compensates for weak institutions
This study investigates the factors contributing to cross-cultural variation in the disapproval of free-riding behaviors such as tax evasion, fare dodging, and benefits fraud. While some cross-cultural researchers contend that attitudes toward these behaviors exhibit minimal variance due to a universal value of fairness, others adopting an institutional perspective argue that significant differences can be explained by factors like government eff…
Individualism–Collectivism Differences Across 60 Russian Regions
This paper explores the cultural differences between Russian regions operationalized in terms of Minkov’s recent revision of Hofstede’s famous individualism — collectivism dimension (I-C). Using a large survey (N = 18,768) conducted in 2019-2020 and spanning 60 regions, we construct a cultural map of the Russian Federation illustrating withincountry variation in I-C. Our measure of I-C is based on respondents’ attitudes toward reproductive freedo…
Dynamics of Happiness and Life Satisfaction Under Conditions of Exogenous Shocks
The papers aims to analyze the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic and the special military operation (SMO) in Ukraine on the Russian people’s happiness and life satisfaction. It relies on three waves of a national panel study conducted via CATI. We failed to identify any substantial impact of those two exogenous shocks on average dynamics of happiness and life satisfaction. Our research, however, shows significant variation between groups of differ…
Sociology of values or sociology of morality
Values and morality are the key concepts sociologists have been using to emphasize the normative dimension of social behavior since the very dawn of our discipline. Yet, while one can find two modern traditions of research concentrated around the concepts of values and morality in sociology, the strict relations between them are rarely explicitly addressed. In this article, we aim to analyze the concepts of values and morality as used in sociolog…
Is “regional culture” a meaningful concept? Cultural differences across 60 Russian regions
Purpose There is an increasing interest in the international management literature in cultural differences between in-country regions. Yet, the regions of any country may be merely political products and not necessarily cultural units. The goal of this article is to propose clear empirical criteria for deciding if a set of entities, such as a country's administrative regions, can be legitimate units of cross-cultural analysis and to test these cr…
Different path to happiness
Numerous studies show that prosocial behavior leads to positive emotional outcomes for the actor, yet does it matter, who the beneficiary is? The present paper explores differential effects of helping acts towards close versus distant recipients on subjective well-being and the role that basic psychological needs play in this relationship. Two studies using event-recall ( N = 127) and interventional ( N = 305) designs in Russian samples were cond…
Moderators of the Connection between Pro-social Behavior and Life Satisfaction
The principal aim of this article is to explore the mechanism of association between informal helping behavior and life satisfaction among Russians. It especially focuses on the potential moderating role of the close relationship between the agent and the beneficiary, as well as the values and demographic characteristics of the agent. To test the main hypotheses, multiple regression analysis is applied to online survey data (N=732) with responden…
Link of the Value Attitudes with Career Achievements (Based on a Survey of Youth)
The present study investigated the effects of basic value orientations on career success among young Russians. Taking into account the motivational nature of values and value congruence effect, we proposed that individuals emphasizing value orientations which prioritize work-related goals (“reputation and power”) would occupy a higher position on a career ladder. At the same time, we expected that value orientation bringing to focus other life do…
