CONNECTIONS BETWEEN LEVELS OF ANALYSIS
Culture level Individualism - Collectivism
Individual / Interpersonal level (self)

A further distinction:
Values orientation and Self orientation To I/C
‘Normative Individualism/ ‘Relational Individualism/
Collectivism’ Collectivism’ (Norms/values; (Self-other relations; Vertical-Horizontal I/C; separateness- Hierarchy) embeddedness)

The latter - - self boundaries, self - other relations has found expression in contrasts made between the ‘Western’ Self-Contained Self and ‘Other’ Views of the Self:
• Enriquez : The Filipino Kapwa the unity of the “self” and the “other”
• Japanese : Group Self (Amae)• Nsamenang : West African Social Selfhood• Sun : The Chinese Two Person Matrix
(Yin and Yan)• Roland : Japanese and Indian Familial Self
Also reflected in Popular Psychology

Autonomy and Relatedness are Basic Human Needs
However, The construal of Autonomy and
Relatedness as Conflicting has prevailed over Autonomy and Relatedness as Basic Needs
Thus, Relatedness is seen as incompatible with Autonomy; and Separation from others is seen
as necessary for autonomy (“Separation-Individuation” hypothesis)

What is the underlying reason?
Not evolutionary, which rather stresses the survival value of cooperation and relatedness in humans and other primates (Euler et al, 2001; Guisinger & Blatt, 1994).
It is cultural ... Western Individualism as a ‘Cultural Affordance’ (Poortinga, 1992).
![Page 9: SELF and CULTURE What type of change? Cigdem Kagitcibasi Koç University Turkish Academy of Sciences Panel on “The New Emerging Markets (Beyond BRIC): Managing.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022062322/56649f2a5503460f94c44c67/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
In much cross-cultural research and theory individualism is understood as autonomy (Hofstede, 1980, 1991; Rothbaum et al., 2000; Rothbaum & Trommsdorff, in press; Smith & Schwartz, 1997; Triandis, 1995; Markus & Kitayama, 1991)
Schwartz (2004) recast Individualism-Collectivism as Autonomy vs. Embeddedness
This is especially the case for Normative I-C
Thus issues of both conceptualization and measurement

Yet, it is neither logically nor psychologically necessary for Autonomy to mean Separateness if we recognize the existence of two distinct dimensions:
Agency:
Autonomy Heteronomy
(dependency) Interpersonal Distance:
Separateness Relatedness

The two dimensions underlie self, self-other relations and social behaviors.
They reflect basic human needs for autonomy and relatedness.
As conceptually distinct dimensions, either pole of each one can coexist with either pole of the other one.

This conceptualization renders viable The Autonomous-Related Self
Despite the consensual agreement that Autonomy and Relatedness are basic needs, this self construal has not been readily recognized in psychology, even in cross-cultural psychology.
