Translating Dispositional Resistance to Change to the Culture Level: Developing A Cultural Framework of Change Orientations

“…For example, the five‐factor model of personality (Digman, ) has been used in several studies as the backdrop for characterizing societies (e.g. Allik et al, ; Gebauer et al, ; McCrae & Terracciano, ). Common practice in these studies is to aggregate individuals' personality scores to the country level and use these to infer about differences among societies.…”

“…the analysis of cultural artefacts), individual‐level theories offer another lens for considering societal phenomena and can often yield novel understandings of these phenomena. As noted above, this has been performed using the five factors of personality for characterizing societies (Allik et al, ; McCrae & Terracciano, ) as well as in transitioning from values that pertain to individuals to those that characterize cultures (Schwartz, ).…”

“…To provide further insights into the meanings of this cultural orientation and establish its nomological net, we will also explore its relationships with extant cultural taxonomies and culture‐level personality profiles (Allik et al, ; e.g. Gelfand et al, ; Hofstede, ; Hofstede, ; House et al, ; Inglehart, ; Schwartz, ).…”

“…Five well‐established frameworks of cultural dimensions—by Schwartz (, ), Hofstede (, ), the GLOBE research group (House et al, ), Inglehart (; Inglehart & Baker, ), and Gelfand et al ()—include dimensions that relate to notions of stability or change. In addition, personality profiles of cultures have been proposed (Allik et al, ; Gebauer et al, ; McCrae & Terracciano, ), including the concept of open cultures, which is also related to stability and change. These frameworks have been extensively studied and provide helpful frameworks for comparing cultures and explaining differences among them (e.g.…”

“…Finally, several studies incorporated the five‐factor model to provide personality profiles of cultures (Allik et al, ; Gebauer et al, ; McCrae & Terracciano, ). Of the five profiles, the profile of open cultures (i.e.…”
