Title: | Associations of Individualistic-Collectivistic Orientations with Emotional Intelligence, Mental Health, and Satisfaction with Life: A Tale of Two Countries | Contributor(s): | Bhullar, Navjot (author)![]() ![]() |

The present study examined the associations of cultural orientation with emotional intelligence, mental health, and satisfaction with life in Australia (an individualistic culture) and India (a collectivistic culture). Participants from Australia (n=207) and India (n=163) completed questionnaires assessing individualistic-collectivistic orientations, emotional intelligence, mental health, and satisfaction with life. Regression analyses indicated that collectivistic orientation was significantly associated with greater emotional intelligence and better mental health outcomes. Cultural orientation did not significantly predict satisfaction with life in both countries. Implications based on these findings were discussed. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Individual Differences Research, 10(3), p. 165-175 | Publisher: | Individual Differences Association | Place of Publication: | United States of America | ISSN: | 1541-745X | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 170110 Psychological Methodology, Design and Analysis 170199 Psychology not elsewhere classified 170109 Personality, Abilities and Assessment |
