“…Additionally, in a situation as this, data aggregation is supported by the Mindscape Theory, too, that suggests intercultural and intracultural heterogeneity (e.g. Dockens, 2009;Fatehi et al, 2015;Gammack, 2002;Hatt, 2009;Hentschel and Sumbadze, 2002;Maruyama, 1980Maruyama, , 1992aMaruyama, , 1992bMaruyama, , 1994Maruyama, , 1995Maruyama, , 1999Maruyama, , 2004Yolles and Fink, 2009).

Recent research to analyze and discuss cultural differences has employed a combination of five major dimensions of individualism–collectivism, power distance, uncertainty avoidance, femininity–masculinity (gender role differentiation), and long-term orientation. Among these dimensions, individualism–collectivism has received the most attention. Chronologically, this cultural attribute has been regarded as one, then two, and more recently, four dimensions of horizontal and vertical individualism and collectivism. However, research on this issue has not been conclusive and some have argued against this expansion. The current study attempts to explain and clarify this discussion by using a shortened version of the scale developed by Singelis et al. ((1995) Horizontal and vertical dimensions of individualism and collectivism: a theoretical and measurement refinement. Cross-Cultural Research 29(3): 240–275). Our analysis of aggregate data from 802 respondents from nine countries supports the expanded view. Data aggregation was based on the Mindscape Theory that proposes inter- and intracultural heterogeneity. This finding is reassuring to scholars who have been using the shortened version of the instrument because confirmatory factor analysis indicated its validity. The findings of the present study provides clarification of some apparent ambiguity in recent research in specifying some cultures such as India, Israel, and Spain as individualists or collectivists. By separating the four constructs, more nuanced classification is possible. Also, such a distinction enables us to entertain such concepts as the Mindscape Theory that proposes a unique intracultural and transcultural heterogeneity that do not stereotype the whole culture as either individualist or collectivist.

Most cross-cultural studies unintentionally give the impression that there is intracultural homogeneity. This research is among a few that suggests otherwise, that there is intracultural and transcultural individual heterogeneity in thinking and logic, or "Mindscape." It is a replication and an expansion of the earlier study. It intends to verify the existence of intracultural heterogeneity in support of mindscape theory. In doing so, it employs a unique way of data collection and analysis. The analysis of data that were collected from six countries not only supports the earlier findings but also points to the existence of intracultural and transcultural heterogeneity of individuals.

“…Focusing on the academic setting, Maruyama (1992) suggests that there is a need to be aware of the tendency for theoretical dominance in an academic department. Although equal opportunity is an underlying principle, respect or disrespect for research areas could affect organizational attachment.…”

Gender imbalance is a highly discussed topic in Norway, where equity is the norm. At the Norwegian School of Economics and Business Administration (NHH) the issue of gender imbalance has been on the strategic agenda of the school for the past 12 years. Because these strategies have not resulted in the reduction of the gender imbalance that was expected, it is necessary to look for further explanations. Gender imbalance can result from hiring practices, turnover, or promoting policies. In this article the focus is on retaining women in the organization, and we draw on the literature from organizational attachment to uncover additional understanding of gender imbalance. The article reports the findings from an exploratory study of organizational attachment among the faculty at NHH. Findings indicate differences between male and female faculty members and PhD students on organizational commitment, on the value and expectation of job characteristics, on the suitability of the paradigm, and on alternative job possibilities.
