| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This study aimed to explore mediational mechanisms underlying the cross-cultural variations in the co-occurrence of spontaneous trait and situation inferences. Specifically, we investigated whether an analytic-holistic attention style mediates the relationship between culture and spontaneous inferences.
The results of two experiments suggest that European Americans showed more spontaneous trait inferences than situation inferences, while Asian Americans and Japanese showed these inferences equally. Further, the investigation of the association between attention and spontaneous inferences revealed that cultural difference in attention allocation while observing behavioral scenes mediates between culture and the co-occurrence of spontaneous trait and situation inferences.
