Intergenerational Analysis of Cultural Dimensions and Attributional Patterns in Romanian Educational Organizations

The stake of our research is focused on realizing an intergenerational diagnosis concerning social axioms, Hofstede's cultural dimensions and attributional patterns in Romanian educational organizations. The sample was composed by 522 subjects: 253 teachers from high-schools and 269 teachers from universities. The main outcomes underline the most intense score of social cynicism, fate control, religiosity (from the social axioms model), externalist locus of control and power distance for younger generations among all cohorts. All of these features reveal the prevalence of retractile and fatalist patterns of social attitudes and evaluation of the social world, generally distributed in the generational strata.
