Abstract

Challenging claims that collectivism is associated with group dispositional biases, this investigation (n = 300) demonstrated that Americans make group dispositional inferences more than Taiwanese. Our research highlights the need to tap group dispositions by assessing the generality of behavior across contexts, rather than by relying solely on trait endorsement.
