Discussion In agreement with predictions, societies with high Hofstede MASculinity scores had higher mean national levels of MGRS. In line with the
30、individual level masculinity hypothesis, higher levels of country-level instrumentality predicted, independent of MAS scores, lower country levels of MGRS.Part2. LimitationOne important limitation of the present study is that its analyses were based on only 13 national samples. The national samples
31、used were not randomly drawn from the total sample of nations in the world.Part3. Application values The present findings provide support at the country level for the stance that tough societies as defined by Hofstede may have dysfunctional health consequences. The present findings show that the tou
32、gher the society, the greater the likelihood that the average man will experience difficulties with situations that are appraised as feminine. Some of the health-related intervention strategies for men may need to be implemented on a large scale in societies with high MAS scores. Such therapeutic procedures might better help men engage in counseling, better than traditional psychological services.Thanks!
