sustento Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 (edited) Some time ago someone post the results of a survey in here showing how different nations are either individualistic or tend to group together. The Thais stood out by their tendency to group together. I can't remember who posted it or what it was called. Can anyone else? Does anyone know where it can be found on the 'net?

onthemoon Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 You are talking about IDV - Individualism vs Collectivism. Somewhere on this site there were the original four dimension for all countries: http://geert-hofstede.com/dimensions.html Cannot find the country list now, my first coffee hasn't kicked in yet.

isanbirder Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I found when working with university students that it was very much a group culture. I call it 'the culture of my friend, I don't know his name'. To put a bit of a gay flavour on it.... I had a boyfriend in Chiangmai who was taken by his friends, so-called, to a (girlie-type) brothel at age 16, did what everyone else did.... and as a result died of AIDS a few years later.

That's the one. I've had a look round the website but can't find the country list either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
