Cultural Psychology on Reputation - Dictionary of Arguments
Slater I 170 Reputation/self-esteem/cultural psychology: Despite the greater emphasis on modesty norms in East Asia as compared to the West, the acknowledgment of positive information about the self is not seen as inappropriate in all contexts. Heyman, Fu, and Lee(2008)(1) found that 10- and 1 1-year-olds in China were more likely than their counterparts in the U.S. to believe it is appropriate to disclose information about successful performance to poorly performing peers. Although American children tended to view this form of disclosure as an act of showing off, Chinese children tended to view it as an implicit offer of help to poorly performing students. This finding suggests that the extent to which truthfully acknowledging one’s accomplishments is morally acceptable depends upon a culture’s valuations about how and when the acknowledgment is likely to be received. 1.
