Quote to include in my dissertation!

Kim, Cohen, Au (2010)
"The sense that one's worth is not a stable characteristic leads to the rationale that to be viewed as an honourable member of a society, continued active maintenance of one's reputation is essential. This includes engaging in behavior that adheres to cultural mandates as well as engaging in defensive behavior to ward off potential threats to one's honour"

---------------------------------------------
Specifically in honor cultures, shame signals teh loss of one's honor, and thus that one had been humiliated in the eyes of others (Cohen, 2003). In collectivistic cultures, shame (and the fear of shame) deters individuals from engaging in socially inappropriate behavior (Leung & Cohen, 2011; cf. Singelis & Sharkey, 1995)


When a person engages in an egregious violation of social norms, members o collectivistic societies might be esp. understanding of a person, who experiences the culturally expected emotion shame entertains thoughts about suicide.
