Having a contextual comparison not only leads to a better understanding of conclusions of traditional social psychology, which have been explored primarily in Western societies, but also expands our view and comprehension beyond borders. However, achieving these goals is easier said than done, and the base from which we want to build is not as sturdy as we would hope. As in all areas of psychology, cross-cultural social psychology needs to ask fundamental questions about the replicability of our results and the depth of our theory. Chapter 1 will go over a brief history of cross-cultural social psychology, focusing on the common theme of individualism versus collectivism dichotomy as a pillar of theory in cross-cultural psychology. This will be followed by addressing the methodological challenges of cross-cultural comparisons that hinder the verifiability of findings. Chapter 1: A Review of the Field 2 2 What is cross-cultural psychology? Social psychology investigates how social interactions shape how we think, feel, and act, that is, how our existence as social animals shapes our cognitive reality. Cross-cultural social psychology looks at how cultures further influence these processes. What is culture? Simply put, culture is a shared system, produced and perpetuated by a group. To further our understanding, we look to others in the field who define culture as the following: “The collective programming of the mind that distinguishes the members of one group or category of people from another” (Hofstede, 2001, p. 9) “... a unique meaning and information system, shared by a group and transmitted across generations, that allows the group to meet basic needs of survival, pursue happiness and well-being, and derive meaning from life.” (Matsumoto & Juang, 2008, p. 12) “... it [culture] represents a coalescence of discrete behavioral norms and cognitions shared by individuals within some definable population that are distinct from those shared within other populations. These normative beliefs and behaviors provide resources for realizing individual and collective goals, and so are often institutionalized in a variety of formal and informal ways. Moreover, there exist means for transmitting beliefs and behaviors to new members of the cultural population, so that the norms defining a culture may persist over very long periods of time.” (Lehman, Chiu, & Schaller, 2004 p. 690) Cross-cultural social psychology (CCSP) is in the fabric of social psychology itself, the influences of which are defined as culture aligned with what social psychologists seek to Chapter 1: A Review of the Field 3 3 explore. However, CCSP is differentiated by comparing two or more different cultural contexts or groups. Cultural groups are not necessary defined by national boarders, cultural groups also include people differentiate by age, gender or religion.
