Traditional value-centered approaches to the analysis of cultural variations have failed to capture group similarities across and beyond national boundaries, partly due to their reliance on variable-centered approaches that examine each cultural value in isolation, thereby ignoring the synergistic effects of cultural values. To fill this gap, we introduce a person-centered approach that allows us to identify subgroups of individuals who share a common configuration, or profile, of cultural values. We apply this approach to a multi-country sample and identify multiple distinct cultural groups within and across countries. We find that while some profiles are unique to a particular country, others cut across countries, representing hitherto unacknowledged patterns of cultural commonalities and differences.

转换分析思维方式:以人为本的文化价值观分析方法

传统的以价值为中心的文化差异分析方法未能捕捉到跨越国界的群体相似性,部分原因是它们依赖于以变量为中心的方法来孤立地检查每种文化价值,从而忽略了文化价值的协同效应。为了填补这一空白,我们引入了以人为中心的方法,该方法使我们能够确定具有共同的文化价值观或特征的个人的子群体。我们将此方法应用于多国样本,并确定国家内部或国家之间的多个不同文化群体。我们发现,尽管某些概况是特定国家/地区特有的,但其他概况却跨越了国家/地区,代表了迄今尚未公认的文化共性和差异模式。
