Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A sample of approximately 10,000 social behaviors was elicited independently using identical procedures, from American and Greek Ss. The lists of social behaviors were subjected to facet analysis, which reduced them to a set of 120 maximally heterogeneous social behaviors in each culture. These behaviors were employed in the construction of two instruments: (a) A Role Differential, which consists of roles judged on scales defined by social behaviors: (b) A Behavioral Differential which consists of stimulus persons judged on scales defined by social behaviors. In each culture, the Role Differential consisted of 100 roles (e.g., father-son, boss-subordinate, daughter-mother) which were judged by male students on 120 social behavior scales. The Ss were instructed to indicate whether in their culture each of the behaviors is appropriate when it is undertaken by the first member of the role-pair towards the second member. The Behavioral Differential consisted of 96 stimulus persons (described by their occupation, race, sex, age, religion, and verbal fluency) which were judged by similar samples of male students on the same 120 social behavior scales. The Ss were instructed to indicate whether or not they would behave in the way specified by the scales towards each of the stimulus persons. (Author).

Book Subjective Meaning and Culture

Download or read book Subjective Meaning and Culture written by Lorand B. Szalay and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-05-01 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Originally published in 1978, Subjective Meaning and Culture presents a framework and a method for the comparative study of the perceptions, attitudes, and cultural frames of reference shared by groups of people. The framework is the notion of subjective meaning, and the method is that of word associations. The authors present a detailed account of some particular cross-cultural and intergroup comparisons using the word-association technique described in this volume. However, rather than emphasize comparisons they focus on the technique itself as a method in the investigation of subjective meaning and with it subjective culture. Their purpose was to introduce a research capability which offered new kinds of information and made critical aspects of subjective meaning accessible to empirical investigation. Today it can be read and enjoyed in its historical context.

Book Handbook of Intercultural Training

Download or read book Handbook of Intercultural Training written by Dan Landis and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2013-09-17 with total page 287 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Handbook of Intercultural Training, Volume I: Issues in Theory and Design is a compilation of nine essays dealing with a problem central to today's complex world: ""How can people best live and work with others who come from very different cultural backgrounds?"" The major focus of the nine essays in this book is the experience of living and working for long periods in other cultures. The book also focuses on other types of cross-cultural experiences, such as majority-minority group relations, training and preparation, and integration. There are analyses of possible experiences people may have, such as stress during adjustments. Other authors in this book address the benefits of intercultural action and integration into a country's educational system. International education is seen to benefit through a greater attention to face-to-face cross-cultural experience. The first seven essays are good descriptions of intercultural behavior and training, while Chapter 8 is an evaluation of cross-cultural training. The last chapter describes the atlas of affective meanings containing 620 concepts from 30 languages/culture communities for use in intercultural training and education. Behavioral and social scientists, trainers and cross-cultural scientists, overseas businessmen, foreign students, diplomats, immigrants, and other people who work in different cultures will find this handbook very helpful.

Book Cross Cultural Psychology

Download or read book Cross Cultural Psychology written by Krum Krumov and published by IAP. This book was released on 2013-04-01 with total page 475 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cross-Cultural Psychology: Why Culture Matters addresses both established and very recent research in cultural and comparative cross-cultural psychology. The book is written by Professor Krum Krumov of Sofia University in Bulgaria and Professor Knud S. Larsen from Oregon State University. The authors are long-term colleagues with extensive research experience in cultural, cross-cultural and international settings. The book starts with a discussion of the tentative nature of cultural information given the forces of globalization and communication integration. Weighing these issues still permits for some powerful conclusions about differences that matter as well as human universals based on our communalities. The reader is also provided with a through grounding in relevant research approaches and critical thinking that provides the basis for an evaluation of the research literature. Further, the book reports on what we know about the origin of culture, especially the forces of cultural transmission and the evidence for socio-cultural evolution. The impact of culture and psychology on human development is contrasted and evaluated. A chapter on language stresses the importance of evolutionary forces and the relationship to socio-culture. In turn that discussion sets the stage for reporting the relevant research on cognition that yields information on the impact of genetics, but also the affect of cultural evolution. A distinct contribution is the evaluation of human happiness and emotions. The book demonstrates tangible relationships to both the universal expressions of emotions, but also the impact of cultural values on well-being. A consideration of personality theory follows in the systematic and progressive discourse in the book. Research is reported on Western, Eastern and Indigenous conceptualizations and research approaches. The discussion on the self is considered next and the authors evaluate cultural, social and comparative cross-cultural dimensions. Finally, a discussion of sex and gender follows as associated with salient cross-cultural dimensions. The book concludes with a discussion of the affect of cultural values in organizational behavior and a consideration of the relationship between culture and human health.
