Individualist cultures like the one we have in the U.S. value the rights of the individual above the group. When it comes to relationships individualist are looking for “romance and personal fulfillment in marriage” (Myers/DeWall pg. 150). This leads to often temporary or casual relationships where confrontation is acceptable. Career development in individualist cultures is mostly about personal achievement and the advancement of the individual. Also political organizations are going to put an emphasis on individual rights and freedoms. A good example of this would be our bill of rights, especially things like freedom of speech.    Collective cultures on the other hand put their values in what’s best for the group. When they are looking for a mate they might put a greater value on someone who is going to be a good partner. Their relationships are typically going to last longer. When it comes to career development everything they do is going to be for the betterment of the company or team. Their political organizations are going to be geared toward laws that are for the betterment of the whole. 3. Many of our traits have genetic roots which can include intelligence, happiness, and aggressiveness. With that being said, his current anxiety, unhappiness, and loneliness could be unfair and unhelpful because these could entirely root from his genetic roots. A lot of these are also not always dependent on how someone was grown up – they can also result from what genes they got. So as much as he is blaming his parents for his upbringing, it could entirely result in his genes. 4. Who we are personality wise is the result of a combination of biological and genetic traits that go along with the experiences we have as we get older. While to say that parents have nothing to do with how we turn out would be a mistake it would also be a mistake to say that they are solely responsible. “Two children in the same family are as different from one another as are pairs of children selected randomly from the population” (Myers/DeWall pg. 146). This is because when it comes to personality traits, such as anxiety, come from a verity of different areas that include culture, peer group, family, and genetic. Social SciencePsychology
