Abstract | Compares descriptions and interpretations of their children's personality and behavior among Dutch and American parents' of infants to 8-year-olds. Analysis of relevant descriptors in parents' discourse and how they talked about core constructs of dependence, and independence reveals a systematic difference defying simple dichotomies of individualism-collectivism and indicates that there are probably many culturally constituted "Western minds."
