Reliability and perceived hierachical structure of social reality
Reliability and perceived hierachical structure of social reality
Anotácia:
Perceived social reality seems to be hierarchically structured. This fact might be found importatnt for the future development of socal sciences. Methodological problems concerning this fact were encountered in connection to cross-cultural studies. One of these problems makes it impossible to compute reliability measures for questionnaires scales in cross-cultural studies. The paper tries to show how problems of this kind could be alleviated in case of Hofstedes VSM 94 research instrument.
