“…That reflection becomes more complex when considering unavoidable cultural evolution (e.g., Greenfield, 2009Greenfield, , 2015Zeng & Greenfield, 2015). Although traditionally culture is viewed as an enduring characteristic, today high cultural interaction and fast technological and scientific evolution cause great turbulence in institutions and require strong intercultural competence (Sandell & Tupy, 2015).…”

Decent work expressing universal values and respecting cultural diversity: propositions for intervention Autor(es): Santos, Nuno Rebelo dos Publicado por: Imprensa da Universidade de Coimbra URL persistente: URI:http://hdl.handle.net/10316.2/47199Abstract Decent work is a comprehensive concept expressing people's aspirations for their working lives. This concept has had great legitimacy since it was proposed by the International Labour Organization, the United Nations agency for labour issues, which is the well-established institutional world forum for cooperation. Furthermore, decent work has joined various research subjects in labour-related disciplines, gaining a central role as a research subject and intervention compass. This paper aims to discuss the consequences of societies' cultural complexity for decent work intervention. After highlighting previous research subjects in labour-related disciplines that are closely related to the decent work dimensions, the consequences of cultural complexity for intervention are pointed out. The tension between universal human values, cultural diversity and culture as an evolving social phenomenon is the trigger for proposing a balance expressed in several propositions concerning culture-sensitive intervention in decent work. Trabalho digno expressando valores universais e respeitando diversidade cultural: Proposições para a intervenção ResumoTrabalho digno é um conceito abrangente que expressa as aspirações das pessoas para a sua vida profissional. Este conceito tem tido elevada legitimidade na medida em que foi proposto pela Organização Internacional do Trabalho, a agência da Organização das Nações Unidas para as questões laborais, que é o fórum mundial institucional mais bem estabelecido para a cooperação. Além disso, o trabalho digno agregou diversos temas de investigação das várias disciplinas que abordam as questões laborais, assumindo assim um papel central como objeto de investigação e como bússola orient...

“…Remote acculturation is linked to social change (Greenfield, ; Silbereisen & Chen, ), Chen's () “pluralist–constructivist” perspective in particular. This perspective examines how cross‐cultural exchanges and advances in modern technology increase individuals' exposure to values, ideas and lifestyles different from those of their native countries, with subsequent changes affecting cognitive and socioemotional development.…”

One impact of globalisation is that adolescents today are frequently exposed to the values, attitudes and norms of other nations without leaving their own backyards. This may lead to remote acculturation-cultural and psychological changes experienced by non-migrant individuals having indirect and/or intermittent contact with a geographically separate culture. Using quantitative and qualitative data, we examined multidimensional remote acculturation among 83 urban Zambian adolescents who are routinely exposed to U.S., U.K. and South African cultures through traditional and social media and materials/goods. Cluster analyses showed 2 distinct groups of adolescents. "Traditional Zambians, TZs" (55.4%) were significantly more oriented towards Zambian culture and reported a higher level of obligation to their families and greater interdependent self-construal compared with "Westernised Multicultural Zambians, WMZs" (44.6%), who were more oriented towards U.S., U.K. and South African cultures. Furthermore, remote acculturation predicted somewhat lower life satisfaction among WMZs. These results demonstrate that individuals' behaviours, values and identity may be influenced by multiple geographically distant cultures simultaneously and may be associated with psychological costs.

“…Last year the International Journal of Psychology (IJP) celebrated the 50th anniversary of its inception and the publication of Volume 1 in 1966, which was definitely a remarkable year: “On Aggression” by Konrad Lorenz was published in English; Luna 9 landed on the moon; and the Beatles began recording “Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.” To mark IJP's anniversary, we had a volume packed with research articles covering a broad spectrum of topics, plus two Special Sections that addressed the role of societal and cultural contexts: one guest‐edited by Patricia Greenfield on “Social change, cultural evolution, and human development,” (; IJP Volume 50, Issue 1, pages 4–59) and one edited by Peter Titzmann and Andrew Fuligni on “Immigrants' adaptation to different cultural settings: A contextual perspective on acculturation” (; IJP Volume 50, Issue 6, pages 407–462). In further celebration of this important anniversary, we also offered our readers a Virtual Issue of the 10 most cited articles since IJP began (http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/journal/10.1002/(ISSN)1464-066X/homepage/VirtualIssuesPage.html).…”
