aim
to investigate the influence that individualism or collectivism has on love & marriage
method
meta-analysis
procedure
reviewed research done in 2 individualistic countries (Canada & US) & 3 collectivistic countries (India, China & Japan)
results
romantic love is more likely to be the basis of marriage in individualistic countries compared to collectivistic countries
intimacy in marriage is more about satisfaction with marriage & personal wellness - individualistic countries
conclusion
individualism & collectivism have an influence on love in marriage & influence the basis upon which the marriage is built
strengths
meta-analysis - variety of populations involved
looked at primarily individualistic or collectivistic countries
limitations
potential publication bias - researchers publish data that confirms their beliefs
should be replicated in order to account for the role of globalization
cultural dimensions aren’t the only factors involved in forming a marriage
implications + applications
shows how cultural dimensions & cultural norms may influence the formation of marriage
could also help explain why arranged marriages are often more successful than love marriages?
