[内容简介] “文化”在社会科学的各个研究领域都得到了广泛的关注。在心理学、组织行为学以及职业开发与管理领域,关于文化差异、个人-文化匹配性的研究方兴未艾。在心理学领域,学者们提出了解释文化作用机制的文化价值观模型、自我构念模型、认知风格模型、社会信念模型等等。这些理论模型不仅对于关于文化的理论建构做出了巨大贡献,也对于其他相关领域,例如文化关系研究、组织行为研究、职业开发与管理都产生了巨大的影响。本书回顾了跨文化心理学研究的一些最新进展,并结合作者本人近几年发表在学术期刊上的研究成果,对于文化差异与文化关系、个人-组织文化匹配性与工作态度的关系、文化与职业决策风格等问题的相关实证研究结果进行了总结和讨论,并提出了未来的研究方向。
