Figure 4
Four line graphs arranged in a two-by-two grid, each showing the predicted relationship between national governance and IE rate at different levels of a cultural value. In every panel the horizontal axis represents national governance, ranging from −2 to 2, and the vertical axis represents predicted IE as a percentage, ranging from 0 to 25 per cent, or 0 to 30 per cent in the bottom right panel. Each panel contains three U-shaped curves: a solid line for a low level of the cultural value, a dashed line for a medium level and a dotted line for a high level. The top left panel shows institutional collectivism, the top right panel shows uncertainty avoidance, the bottom left panel shows future orientation and the bottom right panel shows assertiveness. In all four panels the curves have similar minima but diverge towards the ends of the range: as the cultural value moves from low to high, predicted IE is higher at low levels of national governance and rises more sharply at high levels, so that the U-shape becomes progressively steeper.Predictive margins: moderating role of institutional collectivism, uncertainty avoidance, assertiveness and future orientation.
