How different are the entrepreneurs in the European Union internal market? - An exploratory Cross-Cultural Analysis of German, Italian and Spanish entrepreneurs
Journal of International Entrepreneurship, 2009Co-Authors: Julio García Del Junco, José Manuel Brás-dos-santosAbstract:√Little research has analyzed the similarities or differences between entrepreneurs from different European Union countries. The European Union is a single market, but also an international business arena where the entrepreneurs from any member state can make their first move in the direction of internationalizing their business. This work presents an exploratory study of the personal values and attitudes of European entrepreneurs based on a Cross-Cultural Analysis of entrepre- neurs from Germany, Italy, and Spain. The Analysis uses Hofstede’s model to study the Cultural and social values of these entrepreneurs, and their personal values have emerged from case studies. The results show that the entrepreneurs of the three different nationalities share a similar pattern of personal values. These findings are discussed and proposals for further empirical research suggested.

A Cross-Cultural Analysis of the WISC-III
Culture and Children's Intelligence, 2007Co-Authors: James Georgas, Fons J. R. Van De Vijver, Lawrence G. Weiss, Donald H. SaklofskeAbstract:Publisher Summary The Wechsler a test is one of the most used, individually administered, standardized measures for assessing intelligence in children and adults. The primary purpose of intelligence testing is to classify individuals based on their overall level of cognitive functioning. This chapter describes the Cross-Cultural Analysis of the Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children—Third Edition (WISC-III) data presented country wise. Three different types of analyses are reported. The structural equivalence of the subtests is examined. The issue examined is the extent that the factor structure of the WISC-III is similar aCross countries. The Analysis is based on the idea that similarity of factor structure aCross groups is indicative of the similarity of psychological structures involved in the different Cultural groups to solve the WISC-III test items. About 10% of the items are adapted, which precludes a direct score comparison aCross cultures. The use of item response theory enables the estimation of mean ability level of each Cultural group.

HCI (14) - Cross-Cultural Analysis of Social Network Services in Japan, Korea, and the USA
Lecture Notes in Computer Science, 2009Co-Authors: Aaron Marcus, Niranjan KrishnamurthiAbstract:The techniques of Cross-Cultural Analysis of Websites based on culture models are used to examine user-interface components (the metaphors, mental models, navigation, interaction, and appearance) of social networking sites in three countries. The authors note and evaluate patterns of similarity and difference in the Website designs that seem to link social networking sites by culture dimensions.
