Rosetta Phase II: Measuring and Interpreting Cultural Differences in Cognition
Abstract
The Rosetta-II Project: Measuring National Differences was a multinational cultural cognition research project involving teams from Japan, Korea, Malaysia, India, China , and USA. The objective of the study was to expand upon measures made in Rosetta I. Investigators at each site focused on 1) developing a set of perceptual and simple cognitive measures that can validly predict complex cognition conceptually related to sensemaking in natural contexts; 2) delineating the relationships between these simple measure and complex cognitive functions; and 3) determining national differences in cognitive measures. In addition to the common measurement tools to be used for the research, the Korean and Japanese teams explored developing measures for Holism and Decision making Behavior respectively. A separate report combining data from all Rosetta II investigators, is being prepared by Dr. Helen Klein, under a separate contract with Ball Aerospace Corporation, Dayton, Ohio.
