"Volume 6 of the Advances in Culture and Psychology series showcases cutting-edge contributions from internationally renowned culture scholars who span the discipline of culture and psychology and represent diversity in the theory and study of culture within psychology. In this volume, Michael Cole and Martin Packer first present their cultural-historical activity theory and how it can help to formulate a meta-theory that can further organize cultural developmental science. Next, in his chapter on cultural neuroscience, Shihui Han presents his research program on cultural differences in neurocognitive representation of the self with a special focus on elf-face recognition and self-reflection Nolan Zane and Cindy Huang then focus on cultural issues in mental health treatment and summarize a program of research dedicated to examining the disparities in mental health treatments and outcomes for ethnic minority groups, and in the identification of critical cultural factors associated with treatment processes and outcomes for these groups. Next, in her chapter on Spanish/English bilingualism, Aída Hurtado presents a social psychological analysis that shows that Spanish is not only a communication tool but also a marker of group membership in an ethnic group with numerous implications for the treatment of bilingual speakers. Susan Fiske and Federica Durante present their program of research on the stereotype content model, and its antecedents, consequences, and moderators. Lastly, Catherine Cramton presents her research program concerning globally distributed or virtual work teams and their promise and challenges."

"The role of culture is significant when measuring cognitive abilities during neuropsychological assessments. However, cultural diversity is a frequently overlooked moderating variable. This book emphasizes major distinctions among cultural groups in North and South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Australia to heighten awareness of nuances."

"Cross-Cultural Analysis is the sequel to Culture's Consequences, the classic work published by Geert Hofstede, one of the most influential management thinkers in today's times. Hofstede's original work introduced a new research paradigm in cross-cultural analysis: studying cultural differences through nation-level dimensions (complex variables defined by intercorrelated items). This paradigm has been subsequently used by hundreds of prominent scholars all over the world and has produced solid results. This new text takes the next step: It critically examines in one comprehensive volume the current, prevalent approaches to cross-cultural analysis at the level of nations that have been developed since Hofstede's work, offering students and researchers the theoretical and practical advantages and potential pitfalls of each method. The book is structured into four distinct parts. Parts I and II focus on the main theoretical and statistical issues in cross-cultural analysis using Hofstede's approach and the different research methods now associated with it. Part II consists of presentations of all well-known (and some lesser known) large-scale cross-cultural studies since Hofstede's work that have explained cross-cultural variation in terms of dimensional models. Part III summarizes the main conclusions to be drawn from the presentations in Part II and l explains how the proposed models have contributed to our practical understanding of cross-cultural diversity"

"Salah satu tantangan utama organisasi di era globalisasi ini adalah bagaimana mengarahkan perkembangan organisasi ke arah berkelanjutan yang ideal. Setiap tingkat kesiapan membutuhkan rubrik kapabilitas dan indikator yang berbeda. Oleh karena itu, penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengembangkan Corporate Sustainability Maturity Model (CSMM), yang dapat digunakan oleh organisasi untuk melakukan penilaian diri, mengidentifikasi tingkat kesiapan organisasi saat ini dan transisi ke organisasi berkelanjutan yang lebih matang. Pengembangan CSMM dilakukan dengan menggunakan strategi tiga tahap pengembangan maturity model yaitu scoping, designing dan evaluating. Rancangan CSMM yang melibatkan tinjauan pustaka secara masif, wawancara 7 praktisi dan keterlibatan lebih dari 100 organisasi sebagai narasumber ini menghasilkan 6 domain dan 23 sub-domain; rubrik kapabilitas dan indikator yang didefinisikan untuk 3 tingkat kematangan. CSMM ini kemudian dievaluasi melalui penerapan pada organisasi secara riil melalui dua metode: (i) metode kuesioner & wawancara dan (ii) metode text mining. Berdasarkan temuan, sebagian besar organisasi Indonesia telah menerapkan aktivitas keberlanjutan secara optimal tapi bersifat parsial, tanpa didahului perencanaan strategis atau mengakomodasi tekanan internal dan eksternal yang mendorong upaya keberlanjutan tersebut. Secara keseluruhan, CSMM ini dapat diklaim sebagai sustainability maturity model yang pertama yang dikembangkan dalam menilai kesiapan penerapan prinsip berkelanjutan dalam konteks praktik di Indonesia. Selain itu, penggunaan metode text mining selama proses penilaian dan pembuatan aplikasi pintar sehingga organisasi dapat melakukan penilaian tingkat kematangan secara mandiri dapat diklaim sebagai "angin segar" bagi penelitian dengan topik sejenis.

One of the main challenges of organisations in this era of globalisation is how to navigate their development into ideal sustainable organisations. However, each readiness level requires a different rubric of requirements and indicators. Therefore, this study develops a corporate sustainability maturity model (CSMM), which can be used by organisations to conduct self-assessments, identify their current sustainability maturity levels and transition into mature sustainable organisations. A three-step development strategy was used to develop the proposed CSMM, i.e. the stages of scoping, designing and evaluating. The proposed CSMM includes 6 maturity domains and 23 sub-domains, and the rubric of requirements and indicators were defined among 3 maturity levels. The verified CSMM was then evaluated by assessing real-world organisations. Two methods were applied during the stage of evaluating CSMM: (i) interview & questionnaire assessment method and (ii) text mining assessment method. Based on the findings, most of Indonesian organisations conducted sustainability activities independently, without having a strategic plan in place or accommodating the internal and external pressures that drive the organisational sustainability efforts. Overall, this CSMM can be claimed as the first sustainability maturity model developed for readiness assessment in an Indonesian context. Additionally, based on this CSMM, the usage of text mining method to assess the companies and the creation of smart application so that the organisations are able to do their self-assessment can be claimed as “fresh air” for the researches on similar topics"
