ABSTRACT

The recent growth of interest in the antecedents and consequences of cultural differences in cognition, judgment, and behavior has created a true revolution in psychological theory and research. After being largely ignored by mainstream researchers for many years, these differences have become recognized as one of the most important concerns of not only psychology but social science in general. The articles in this volume testify to the diversity of phenomena that have captured the theoretical and applied interests of eminent scholars whose interests range from organizational behavior to neuroscience, and whose own cultural backgrounds span the entire globe.
