Individualism and collectivism: Cross-cultural perspectives on self-ingroup relationships.

Abstract: The individualism and collectivism constructs are theoretically analyzed and linked to certain hypothesized consequences (social behaviors, health indices). Study 1 explores the meaning of these constructs within culture (in the United States), identifying the individual-differences variable, idiocentrism versus ailocentrism, that corresponds to the constructs. Factor analyses of responses to items related to the constructs suggest that U.S. individualism is reflected in (a) Self-Reliance With Competition, (b)… Show more

“…The sensual pleasure of eating is subjectively experienced, but it is often undertaken in groups. This point is particularly relevant for collectivist cultures, the origin of the majority of international students (UKCISA, 2009a), which emphasize shared experiences and group interactions (Triandis et al, 1988). Therefore, it seems unlikely that these students would distinguish eating from interaction; furthermore, Michelle's diminished diet in England supports the negative link suggested between the motivation to cook and reduced social contact (McIntosh and Kubena, 1999).…”

“…Individualist societies are those in which there is an emphasis on individual rights, and where the goals of groups or collectives are subordinate to the goals of the individual. In collectivist societies, there is a greater emphasis placed on others than on the self, which leads to an emphasis on harmony and conformity and on subordination of one's own goals to the goals of the collective (Hofstede, 1980;Triandis, Bontempo & Villareal, 1988;Triandis, McCusker & Hui, 1990). These differences can be observed in people's orientation towards romantic love.…”

“…A adoção freqüente do individualismo e do coletivismo como um padrão de diferenças culturais potencialmente útil à explicação da variabilidade do comportamento social deve-se, em grande parte, a Triandis e seus associados , 1990a, 1990b, 1994bTriandis & cols., 1986;Triandis, Bontempo, Villareal, Asai & Lucca, 1988;Triandis, Leung, Villareal & Clack, 1985;Triandis & Gelfand, 1998;Triandis, McCusker & Hui, 1990), que, há mais de duas décadas, vêm se dedicando a um intenso programa de pesquisas voltado para o aprofundamento dos aspectos conceituais e metodológicos implicados na caracterização do referido constructo.…”
