  1. Cross-cultural researcher

    Unreferenced stub auto yes date December 2009 Orphan date December 2009 A cross cultural researcher is a type of ethnologist interested in discovering general patterns about cultural traits. This branch of anthropology investigates what is universal and variable among cultures , why traits vary, and what consequences come from the variations. Cross cultural researchers generally follow cross cultural research theory, which holds that most cultures share common evolutionary and functional traits. This view has evolved from the notion of cultures progressing from barbarism to civilization and primitive versus advanced races to a more nuanced, comparative view. This evolution also seeks to de emphasize various traditional approaches based on race and racism, to a more objective, neutral view of cultures, taking in all their diversity and variability.

It is considered a facet of human capital . Cross cultural capital is conceived as a broad construct and it is composed of both dispositional or, more trait like and experience based elements more statelike , including personality dispositions e.g., openness to experience , values and beliefs e.g.,pro diversity beliefs , cognitive style cognitive flexibility and acquired specific skills e.g., mastery of several languages as well as of relevant experiences e.g., traveling, living and working in different countries growing up in a multicultural environment .
