There are two strategies for thinking about personality and culture.

The first is one that you

already have seen a number of times in this text. It is a strategy that begins with a particular
theoretical conception or theory-driven hypothesis and then asks whether the idea happens to
apply across cultures. Since so much of 20th-century psychological science was a product of the
Western world (the United States and Europe), in practice, this strategy is one in which (1) a
personality
scientist starts with an idea about human nature that is based in Western culture and that
reflects research findings or clinical experiences involving U.S. or European citizens and then
(2) asks whether this conception of personality receives support when research is conducted in
non-Western cultures. You saw this strategy back in Chapter 6, when learning about the
phenomenological
theory of personality and self developed by the American psychologist Carl Rogers.
After reviewing his theory, we summarized contemporary research on the question of whether
Rogerian self-processes occur in Asian cultures. You saw this strategy again in Chapter 8, where
we asked whether the Big Five model of personality traits (another product of Western personality
psychology) replicates cross-culturally. There are two strategies for thinking about personality and
