“…Recent cross-cultural work, particularly research comparing members of East Asian and Western cultures, has revealed striking differences in cognition, emotion, and behavior (e.g., Choi, Nisbett, & Norenzayan, 1999;Kashima, Siegal, Tanaka, & Kashima, 1992), as well as fascinating similarities in underlying psychological processes and motives (e.g., attribution for group vs. individual behavior; Menon, Morris, Chiu, & Hong, 1999;and cognitive dissonance;Hoshino-Browne, Zanna, & Spencer, 2005). Stereotyping processes, however, have been the focus of relatively little cross-cultural investigation.…”
