My Asian-American
Culture
Individualism /
Collectivism
Collectivism. We have
high individualistic goals
but do them for the sake
of collectivism/family.
Gender Role

U.S. scored a 62 on
masculinity. Americans
value competition and have
high individualistic drive.
Power Distance
Respect of
Authority
I am probable
intermediate because in
my culture we respect
authority, rules, and elders
but I am also influenced
by American culture to
speak my mind and stand
up for what I believe in.
Indulgence vs.
Restraint
I am intermediate between
indulgence and restraint.
The Asian side of me can
restrain and plan for the
future but the American
side of me often likes to
consume things.
Human Nature
Cognition /
Knowledge
Emphasis on education
because older generation
believes that its the key to
success
Time Orientation
We are intermediate in
earliness or lateness. We
tend to be on time, neither
early or late.
Sexuality
We are timid/conservative
in our sexuality. We often
dont discuss it in our
family. Growing up in a
Christian household, I was
taught to believe that sex
should be enjoyed when
married.
Justice
I believe we do have a
justice system but do not
find the justice system to
be fair because it is based
off a corrupt racist system.
Ontology: Spiritual
Materialism
We are governed as a
Christian country, though
theres a huge diversity of
religion in the U.S..
America is highly
materialistic.
