    A cross-cultural analysis of the relationship between holism and politics: the case of Turkey and Ukraine

    No full text
    Previous research conducted on samples from the U.S. and China showed that analytic/holistic thinking styles (measured by the Triad Categorization Task; Ji et al., 2004) are related to political ideology (Talhelm et al., 2015; Talhelm, 2018); liberals tend to think analytically and conservatives holistically. The current project aims at providing a non-Western replication of this relationship in Turkey and Ukraine. Data is already collected from Ukraine as a part of another project. This registration concerns the Turkey part of the project

    The Rice Theory of Culture

    No full text
    The rice theory of culture is the idea that rice farming societies developed into more interdependent, tight cultures in response to the demands of the plant. Farming in general is an interdependent subsistence style, but traditional paddy rice farming was starkly different from other major crops like wheat, corn, and potatoes. Paddy rice required twice as much labor per hectare as wheat farming. Farmers responded by creating customs to share labor. Paddy rice also depended on irrigation systems to flood and drain the fields. Once farmers controlled water, they now had to coordinate how much water each farmer got, when to flood their fields, and how to divide the labor for repairing the canals. This created a tight society, where people depended on each other, and individual farmers had less freedom of movement. This article gives an overview of the theory, summarizes recent evidence of cultural differences between rice and wheat societies, and then lays out unanswered questions for future research

    A Decade of the Rice Theory: Examination and Discussion

    No full text
    The Rice Theory, posited by cultural psychologist Thomas Talhelm, proposes intriguing connections between historical agricultural practices, specifically rice cultivation in the south and wheat farming in the north of China, and resultant cultural and psychological differences. This research aims to delve deeper into the theory's validity, taking into account additional variables such as temperature, precipitation, population density, rice-wheat ratio, and heavy industry output
