Quantifying Hofstede and Developing Cultural Fingerprints for Website AcceptabilityAuthor:
Smith, A. & Y. ChangAbstract:
In this paper we present research that investigates the significance of Hofstede’s cultural dimensions to website acceptability. In addition we propose cultural fingerprints as a diagrammatic means of representing and communicating culture in the context of website acceptability. From empirical research conducted in China we conclude that considerable caution needs to be adopted when applying generic models of culture to the world of the web.Original publication:
