Abstract

After Hofstede proposed individualism-collectivism (IDV-COLL) as a dimension of national culture, numerous studies have used that name to refer to individual-level psychological constructs, based on theories and empirical operationalizations that are not necessarily compatible with the Hofstede tradition. This has created confusion. In this study, we investigate whether the two revised Minkov-Hofstede dimensions of national culture - IDV-COLL and “flexibility-monumentalism” (FLX-MON) - have individual-level counterparts and if they are isomorphic (have the same structure at both levels of analysis). We find that the three main conceptual facets of national COLL (conformism, ascendancy, and exclusionism) and the three of MON (self-esteem, self-stability, and generosity) materialize as six independent individual-level dimensions in a nationally representative sample from Mongolia (n = 1500). This structure emerged in a confirmatory factor analysis, multidimensional scaling, and hierarchical cluster analyses. This is the first series of analyses of the structure of the individual-level ingredients of national IDV-COLL and FLX-MON,

从Minkov-Hofstede文化模型到个体层面分析的转换:来自蒙古的证据

在霍夫斯泰德提出个人主义-集体主义（IDV-COLL）作为民族文化的一个维度后，许多研究都用这个名字来指代个人层面的心理结构，其理论和经验操作并不一定与霍夫斯泰的传统相兼容。这造成了混乱。在本研究中，我们调查了民族文化的两个修正后的Minkov-Hofstede维度——IDV-COLL和“灵活性纪念碑主义”（FLX-MON）——是否具有个体层面的对应关系，以及它们是否同构（在两个分析层面上具有相同的结构）。我们发现，在来自蒙古的具有全国代表性的样本（n=1500）中，国家COLL的三个主要概念方面（顺从、优势和排斥）和MON的三个概念方面（自尊、自我稳定和慷慨）表现为六个独立的个人层面维度。这种结构出现在验证性因素分析、多维量表和层次聚类分析中。这是对国家IDV-COLL和FLX-MON的个体水平成分结构的第一系列分析，

期刊介绍： Cross-Cultural Research, formerly Behavior Science Research, is sponsored by the Human Relations Area Files, Inc. (HRAF) and is the official journal of the Society for Cross-Cultural Research. The mission of the journal is to publish peer-reviewed articles describing cross-cultural or comparative studies in all the social/behavioral sciences and other sciences dealing with humans, including anthropology, sociology, psychology, political science, economics, human ecology, and evolutionary biology. Worldwide cross-cultural studies are particularly welcomed, but all kinds of systematic comparisons are acceptable so long as they deal explicity with cross-cultural issues pertaining to the constraints and variables of human behavior.
