Abstract

Hong Kong and United States information systems (I/S) workers’ perceptions of work are analyzed according to Hofstede’s cultural paradigm. More specifically, the theoretical emphasis of this research is a test of the cultural divergence hypothesis as it relates to the individualism/collectivism dimension of Hofstede’s analysis. Further, smallest space analysis, a multidimensional scaling technique, is used to assess the differences between the two cultures. The hypothesized differences between the two cultures is partially supported; Hong Kong and United States I/S workers differ along the individualism/collectivism dimension of Hofstede’s paradigm, but not in the manner initially thought. Implications of these findings for both I/S professionals and end-users are discussed.
