“…CFAs of the Singelis (1994) scale by Levine et al (2003) and Hardin et al (2004) showed values of CFI ranging from .25 to .65 and RMSEA ranging from .076 to .268. Similarly poor fit indices have been observed for the Gudykunst et al (1996) scale (Hackman, Ellis, Johnson, & Staley, 1999;Levine et al, 2003). In CFAs of their six-factor model, Hardin and colleagues (2004;Hardin, 2006) reported CFIs from .55 to .72, although RMSEA was usually acceptable.…”

It is not the copy of record. contrast between independence and interdependence does not adequately capture the diverse models of selfhood that prevail in different world regions. Cultural groups emphasize different ways of being both independent and interdependent, depending on individualism-collectivism, national socioeconomic development, and religious heritage. Our seven-dimensional model will allow future researchers to test more accurately the implications of cultural models of selfhood for psychological processes in diverse ecocultural contexts.Keywords: CULTURE; SELF-CONSTRUALS; INDEPENDENCE-INTERDEPENDENCE Twenty-five years ago, Markus and Kitayama (1991) published their classic article on culture and the self, proposing that people in different parts of the world tend to construe themselves in two fundamentally different ways. They argued that Western cultures are unusual in promoting an independent view of the self as bounded, unitary, stable, and separate from the social context, whereas cultures in other parts of the world emphasize an interdependent view of the self as closely connected to others, fluid, and contextually embedded. They proposed that people with independent self-construals would strive for self-expression, uniqueness, and self-actualization, basing their actions on personal thoughts, feelings, and goals. In contrast, people with interdependent self-construals would strive to fit in and maintain social harmony, basing their actions on situationally defined norms and expectations.Markus and Kitayama's (1991) proposals had a dramatic impact on social, personality and developmental psychology, challenging ethnocentric assumptions, drawing attention to cultural diversity, and providing conceptual tools for theorizing about it. Social and personality psychologists used measures and manipulations of self-construals to predict numerous outcomes: cognitive styles, well-being, self-regulation, selfesteem, communication styles, social anxiety, and pro...

“…Studies that used SEM solely for confirmatory factor analysis were excluded from our analyses (e.g., Hackman, Ellis, Johnson, & Staley, 1999). Thus, the existence of the structure component of a structural equation model was a necessary condition for inclusion in this study.…”

Structural equation modeling (SEM) is a viable multivariate tool used by communication researchers for the past quarter century. Building off Cappella (1975) as well as McPhee and Babrow (1987), this study summarizes the use of this technique from 1995-2000 in 37 communication-based academic journals. We identify and critically assess 3 unique methods for testing structural relationships via SEM in terms of the specification, estimation, and evaluation of their respective structural equation models. We provide general guidelines for the use of SEM and make recommendations concerning latent variable models, sample size, reporting parameter estimates, model fit statistics, cross-sectional data, univariate normality, cross-validation, nonrecursive modeling, and the decomposition of effects (direct, indirect, and total).

“…Perhaps, organizational subordinates used more positive humor because they were less inclined due to power differentials to employ expressive (self-disclosure may be seen as risky for employees) or negative humor (attempts to exert control over others may be misconstrued). As Hackman et al (1999) suggested, subordinates' thoughts about the way they may be perceived will affect their communication and choices of humor.…”

“…Communicator image taps a manager's or subordinate's overall image of her/his communicative ability to interact with a variety of people and evaluates whether someone is a "good communicator" (Norton, 1978, p. 134). Hackman, Ellis, Johnson, and Staley (1999) noted that, taken together, these communication styles are an enduring set of communicative behaviors managers and subordinates enact when interacting with one another. Regardless of individual style, status, or sex, similarity of communication behaviors among managers and subordinates is associated with effective communication (Montgomery & Norton, 1981).…”
