    Cultural fluency - Israel (#23068) Author(s) Created: 05/06/2019 04:48 AM (PT) Ying Lin (The Open University of Israel) - [email protected] Public: 05/22/2019 10:37 AM (PT) Sharon Arieli (The Hebrew University of Jerusalem) - [email protected] Daphna Oyserman (University of Southern California) - [email protected] 1) Have any data been collected for this study already? No, no data have been collected for this study yet. 2) What's the main question being asked or hypothesis being tested in this study? Focusing on Jewish Israelis who were born in Israel (i.e., native Hebrew speakers) we predict that viewing culturally fluent breakfast dishes (fresh vegetables, eggs, cheese) increases inherence relative to Israelis who view culturally disfluent breakfast dishes (cooked vegetables, meat, unique pastry) whether or not disfluency has been made explicit through warning. 3) Describe the key dependent variable(s) specifying how they will be measured. Inherence is our dependent variable; it is measured with the Inherence Heuristic Scale of Salomon & Cimpian (2014). 4) How many and which conditions will participants be assigned to? Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the three conditions. In all conditions, they are exposed to photos of breakfast dishes and are asked to rate them on quality and attractiveness (using a five-point scale, 1 = not at all, 5 = very much). In the culturally fluent condition, the photos present breakfasts of raw vegetables, fresh cheeses, fresh bread, fried eggs. In the culturally disfluent condition, the pictures present breakfasts of cooked vegetables, meats, fried breads, fries.

  • TO: Dr Rice FROM: Prateek Khamesra DATE: Jan 29, 2015 SUBJECT: Israel Journal Day 1 8Th Jan 2015: TRAVELING We Boarded the Bu
    TO: Dr Rice FROM: Prateek Khamesra DATE: Jan 29, 2015 SUBJECT: Israel Journal Day 1 8th Jan 2015: TRAVELING We boarded the bus at 5 pm and reached Washington Dulles airport at around 7.30 pm. It took us a lot of time due to too much traffic, but it was good as I got to know my team better. While in the bus, everyone talked about their hometown & how it was to grow up in a particular area. For instance, Abby was born and brought up in NY, Raymond, born in Guam and his father served in the navy, so he stayed in many places & now his family has settled in Maryland. Sam grew up in Pittsburgh and every summer her family goes to their Lake house in South Carolina for family bonding. Katheline is also from NY but now her family is settled in Florida. She told us about her recent trip to Florida. The interaction gave me a deeper insight of the culture and values of each team member. (Group picture at Dulles Airport before boarding) Our flight was delayed by 20 minutes, but surprisingly, we reach Frankfurt 40 minutes early. In Frankfurt, we had a layover for 6 hours. Sadly, I had to stay at the airport due to Visa issues, but my teammates went to Frankfurt. I saw the pictures, they were amazing. Most amazing part of the Frankfurt airport was its beds, yes, you heard it right. They had sleeping beds lined up in series. After 8 hours of sitting in one place in flight with your body in a state of complete discomfort, nothing can beat the joy of stretching your legs and sleeping for 3 hours.
