Anxiety, Coping, and Flow

Empirical studies in interactional perspective


Discussion

Cross-cultural research generally offers two specific opportunities in the arena of scientific investigation. First, it permits control for generalizability with regard to results, and can demonstrate consistent nomothetical relationships or laws across cultures. This in itself constitutes a type of cross-validation of more culturally specific findings. Second, it shows how variations in cultural settings result in context-related differences in the behaviors of individuals. The current study provides examples of both approaches. On the much-debated question of stressor specificity or the “trait-like” character of coping behaviors, our results support the view that the appraised character of situations has a major role to play in the process via which the individual selects a particular coping strategy. In this respect, our data show a substantial correspondence with those reported by Carver et al. (1989), Compas et al. (1987) and McCrae (1984).
