Understanding cross-cultural differences is of particular importance to scholars and practitioners in the post-pandemic world. People around the globe are facing serious psychosocial challenges caused by mandate quarantine and remote working, and experiencing cross-cultural conflicts elicited by different levels of catastrophic cognitions on the COVID-19. All these issues fall into the categories at the intersection of neuroscience and cultural psychology as cognition- and perception-related, psychosocial issues are robust activators of the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis while cultural psychology focuses on addressing how cultural factors influence human cognition and perception.
Literature about cultural psychology has highlighted the existence of considerable cross-cultural variances in human cognition and perception at both individual and social levels, such as the well-known individualism-collectivism and holistic-analytic mental paradigms. Moreover, there is also a burgeoning interest about perception science and scholars are invited to explore cultural meaning and experience due to the increasing attention to modern technologies or methods for cognitive neuroscience in exploring cultural effects on human behavior. However, the current findings remain controversial and limited.
In such a highly uncertain and volatile world riddled with cross-cultural collisions and mental pressures that may drive a variety of sensory changes, it is imperative to dig deeper into cross-cultural similarities and differences in human perception and cognition, so as to enrich our understanding of others, the self and the environment. To fill the research gap, the purpose of this Research Topic is to promote interdisciplinary research focusing on cross-cultural issues from any unconventional, integrative view of perception science and cultural psychology.
It should be noted that the call for paper (CFs) defines “culture” in a broader way, encouraging authors to consider all levels of analysis about cultural differences, ranging from ethnic culture, regional culture, organizational culture to catering culture, popular culture and the like. Further, whereas we believe that there is no single disciple, methodology or instrument that can answer all the questions raised above, we encourage research to be conducted within the broad umbrella of cultural psychology and perception science.
Original research, reviews, policy, practice reviews, methods, hypotheses and theories, perspectives, opinions, and conceptual analyses are welcome. All papers submitted for this open call will be reviewed anonymously by experts in the field. Authors are encouraged to submit manuscripts in, but not limited to, the following areas:
- Cross-cultural differences in cognition, perception and neural systems
- Cognitive neuroscience and cross-cultural management
- Cognitive neuroscience and organizational behavior
- Consumer behavior and neuro-decision making across cultures
- Moral decision, ethics, and neuroscience
- Neuroscience of aesthetics
- Neuroscience of architectural experience
- Neuro-entrepreneurship
- Neuro-industrial-engineering
- Neuro-information system/ NeuroIS
- Neuro-management and culture
- Neurofinance and behavioural economics
- Neuromarketing/ Marketing strategies, and advertising
- Neuroscience and education research across cultures
- Neuroscience and innovation research across cultures
- Neuroscience and jurisprudence research across cultures
- Social cognitive neuroscience and culture
- Language, translatology and -neurolinguistics
- Sports Psychology and Neuroscience
