History has not ended (Fukuyama, 1992; Haas & Omura, 2022). The Euro-American political, economic, and social system seems not to be the one-size-fits-all model welcomed by all people. Promoting Western values and solutions as the “human development syndrome” (Inglehart & Oyserman, 2004) seems like cultural colonialism. Also, we are not doomed to a clash of civilizations (Huntington, 1993). Our diversified cultural and religious identities do not have to be the source of endless conflicts. The vast majority of societies enjoy peaceful coexistence with other—culturally different—societies...

Cultural psychologists often treat binary contrasts of West versus East, individualism versus collectivism, and independent versus interdependent self-construal as interchangeable, axiomatically assuming that collectivist societies promote interdependent rather than independent models of selfhood. Latin American societies constitute a problem case for this assumption. Existing data indicate that Latin American societies emphasize collectivist values at least as strongly as Confucian East Asian societies, but they emphasize independent self-construals at least as strongly as “Western” societies (with some differences in the forms of independence that are most prevalent). Rather than dismiss these findings as anomalous, we make sense of them by exploring socioecological and historical differences between Confucian Asian and Latin American societies. The relative prevalence of independent models of selfhood in Latin American societies can be explained by these societies’ modes of subsistence (herding vs. rice farming), colonial histories (frontier settlement), cultural heterogeneity, Christian religious heritage, and societal organisation (relational mobility, loose norms, honor logic). The findings also cohere with other indices of contemporary psychological culture. We conclude that the common view linking collectivist values with interdependent self-construals needs revision. Global cultures are diverse, and researchers should pay more attention to societies beyond “the West” and East Asia.

Introduction to a Culturally Sensitive Measure of Well‐Being: Combining Life Satisfaction and Interdependent Happiness Across 49 Different Cultures. Journal of Happiness Studies. Advanced online publication. doi:10.1007/s10902-022-00588-1 AVAILABLE IN OPEN ACCESS

How can one conclude that well-being is higher in country A than country B, when well-being is being measured according to the way people in country A think about well-being? We address this issue by proposing a new culturally sensitive method to comparing societal levels of well-being. We support our reasoning with data on life satisfaction and interdependent happiness focusing on individual and family, collected mostly from students, across forty-nine countries. We demonstrate that the relative idealization of the two types of well-being varies across cultural contexts and are associated with culturally different models of selfhood. Furthermore, we show that rankings of societal well-being based on life satisfaction tend to underestimate the contribution from interdependent happiness. We introduce a new culturally sensitive method for calculating societal well-being, and examine its construct validity by testing for associations with the experience of emotions and with individualism-collectivism. This new culturally sensitive approach represents a slight, yet important improvement in measuring well-being.

Past research has shown that economic inequality shapes individuals’ self-construals. However, it has been unclear which dimensions of self-construal are associated with and affected by economic inequality. A correlational (Study 1: N = 264) and an experimental study (Study 2: N = 532) provided converging evidence linking perceived economic inequality with two forms of independent (vs. interdependent) self-construal: Difference from Others and Self-Reliance. In Study 3 (N = 12,634) societal differences in objective economic inequality across 48 nations predicted feelings of Difference from Others, but not Self-Reliance. Importantly, we found no significant associations of economic inequality with the other six dimensions of self-construal. Our findings help extend previous results linking economic inequality to forms of “social distance.”

Family First: Evidence of Consistency and Variation in the Value of Family Versus Personal Happiness Across 49 Different Cultures. Journal of Cross-Cultural Psychology, 54(3), 323–339. https://doi.org/10.1177/00220221221134711

People care about their own well-being, but also about the well-being of their families. It is currently however unknown how much people tend to value their own and their family’s well-being. A recent study documented that people value family happiness over personal happiness across four cultures. In this study, we sought to replicate this finding across a larger sample size (N = 12,819) and a greater number of countries (N = 49),  We found that the strength of the idealization of family over personal happiness preference was small (average Cohen’s ds = .20 with country levels varying from -.02 to almost .48), but ubiquitous, i.e., direction presented in 98% of the studied countries, 73-75% with statistical significance and < 2% variance across countries. We also found that the size of this effect did vary somewhat across cultural contexts. In Latin American cultures highest on relational mobility, the idealization of family over personal happiness was very small (average Cohen’s ds for Latin America = .15 and .18), while in Confucian Asia cultures lowest on relational mobility, this effect was closer to medium (ds > .40 and .30). Importantly,  we did not find strong support for traditional theories in cross-cultural psychology that associate collectivism with greater prioritization of the family versus the individual; country level individualism-collectivism was not associated with variation in the idealization of family versus individual happiness. Our findings indicate that no matter how much various populists abuse the argument of “protecting family life” to disrupt emancipation, family happiness seems to be a pan-culturally phenomenon. Family well-being is a key ingredient of social fabric across the world, and should be acknowledged by psychology and well-being researchers, and by progressive movements too.
