Maintaining cultural values through colored geometric patterns
Keiko Ishii (Kobe Univ.) HCS2013-82
Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) The present research examined how cultural values of harmony and uniqueness are represented in and maintained through colorings of geometric patterns and how individuals play an active role in maintaining such cultural values. Colorings produced by European-American adults and children were judged as more unique, whereas colorings produced by Japanese adults and children were judged as more harmonious, reflecting cultural differences in values. Harmony undergirded Japanese participants' preferences for colorings, whereas uniqueness undergirded European-American participants' preferences for colorings. These cultural differences led participants to prefer own-culture colorings over other-culture colorings. Moreover, child rearers in Japan and Canada gave feedback about the children's colorings that were consistent with their culture's values. These findings suggest that simple geometric patterns can embody cultural values that are socialized and reinforced from an early age.
