\u8981\u65e8<\/span><\/b>Abstract<\/span><\/b>\uff1a<\/span><\/b>
\n<\/span>Individualism\u2013collectivism (I-C), the most widely researched cultural dimension, is often equated with Hofstede\u2019s pioneering nation scores. Concerns are growing about these scores\u2019 validity, but\u00a0subsequent\u00a0research has not produced a widely accepted alternative. Here, we offer a refined theoretical conceptualization of I-C, we systematically reevaluate the validity of Hofstede\u2019s I-C scores, and we report the development and validation of a new I-C index, covering 102 countries\/territories inhabited by an estimated 88% of the world\u2019s population. In Study 1, we document the inferior convergent and nomological validity of Hofstede\u2019s I-C index, compared to\u00a0subsequent\u00a0measures. Hofstede\u2019s scores\u00a0substantially overestimate\u00a0individualism in English-speaking countries and collectivism in East Asian societies, which we\u00a0demonstrate\u00a0can\u00a0considerably bias\u00a0research findings. In Study 2, we develop an authoritative, theory-driven I-C index, using nationally representative data from the World Values Survey and European Values Study, which shows excellent internal coherence, temporal stability, and\u00a0strong evidence\u00a0of convergent, discriminant, and nomological validity. Theorized\u00a0facets\u00a0of individualism\u2014freedom (vs. conformity), tolerance of differences (vs. exclusion), and equality (vs. discrimination)\u2014form a coherent and stable dimension at the cultural level of analysis. Individualism is higher in societies with better existential security (e.g., socioeconomic development, stable institutions) and is not associated with greater selfishness, anomie, or competitive beliefs and values. Relying on outdated indices may perpetuate cultural stereotypes and underpin flawed theorizing. Scholars should use theoretically\u00a0appropriate\u00a0and up-to-date measures of societal culture when\u00a0seeking\u00a0to understand global variation in human psychological functioning.<\/span><\/p>\n
