[quote=ZOEY,239997]A report from the ScienceDaily states that it is more difficult for Americans to understand others's viewpoints than for Chinese people. A psychologist from Chicago University says that Americans and other westerners seldom view things standing in others' position, which may hinder the effective communication. In the report, the researcher take Chinese people and American peple as examples and compares the two. He concludes that Chinese people are more thoughtful than Americans because Chinese people live in a collectivism culture, while the Americans live in a culture emfhasizing the individualism. In a collectivism culture, people are encouraged to think of community and other social groups before oneself. While, individualism gives prominence to one's personal benefits, and people are more ego-centric. So, people who live in collectivism culture are more considerate that those live in an individualism culture. What's your opinion? [/quote]
