CULTURAL CONTEXT Cultural hides more than it reveals, and strangely enough what it hides most effectively from its own participants.” -Edward T. Hall People learn to arrange their ideas, thoughts, emotions and even their behaviour according to the stimulus of the environment. Thus, culture is not innate even if people are born into it since culture is always learned. Culture teaches individuals to think and behave, therefore a kind of interaction among people is depicted in various circumstances INDIVIDUALISM individualistic cultures focus on individual goals. It also aims to benefit the individual since every person is seen as unique with distinct talents and potential, thereby enabling them to hone their creativity, develop, independence, andonfidence. People in individualistic cultures are disconnected from the in-groups such as the family and ironically belong to several groups but their stay is short-lived COLLECTIVISM Is the assumption that groups blend well by serving the in-group (family, neighbors, or occupational groups). People are not viewed as isolated individuals but rather they are identified by their membership. It emphasizes harmony and likewise prefers the significance of the group than the individuals being emotionally linked to it and their bond may last a lifetime. One’s behaviour is role-based, and deviations from the prescribed role are discouraged and often negatively sanctioned. In this sense, a person’s behaviour is guided more by shame than by personal guilt.
