Hofstede的民族文化维度称为男性气质-女性气质[Hofstede(1991)]。文化和组织：思想的软件。伦敦：麦格劳-希尔[McGraw-Hill]被认为与理解自我评估的广场恐惧症恐惧的国家层面差异有关。这一预测是基于Fodor（1974）的经典著作。见：V.弗兰克斯和V.伯尔（编），妇女在治疗：新的心理疗法为一个不断变化的社会。纽约：Brunner/Mazel出版社。一个包含11个国家（总共N = 5491名学生）的独特数据集为仔细研究这一问题提供了机会。这是一种假设，并发现国家的男性气质（文化描绘性别角色的程度，男性化或强硬的社会比女性化或温和的社会更清楚地区分性别）与国家的广场恐惧症恐惧水平呈正相关（根据恐惧调查附表iii进行评估）。在对国家样本的性别和年龄差异进行校正后，发现显著且大的国家（生态）水平r = +0.67 （P = 0.01）。像瑞典这样高度女性化的社会，广场恐惧症得分最低，而在男性化社会中排名第一的日本，广场恐惧症得分最高。2003爱思唯尔科学有限公司版权所有。
Hofstede's dimension of national culture termed Masculinity-Femininity [Hofstede (1991). Cultures and organizations: software of the mind. London: McGraw-Hill] is proposed to be of relevance for understanding national-level differences in self-assessed agoraphobic fears. This prediction is based on the classical work of Fodor [Fodor (1974). In: V. Franks & V. Burtle (Eds.), Women in therapy: new psychotherapies for a changing society. New York: Brunner/Mazel]. A unique data set comprising 11 countries (total N = 5491 students) provided the opportunity of scrutinizing this issue. It was hypothesized and found that national Masculinity (the degree to which cultures delineate sex roles, with masculine or tough societies making clearer differentiations between the sexes than feminine or modest societies do) would correlate positively with national agoraphobic fear levels (as assessed with the Fear Survey Schedule-III). Following the correction for sex and age differences across national samples, a significant and large effect-sized national-level (ecological) r = +0.67 (P = 0.01) was found. A highly feminine society such as Sweden had the lowest, whereas the champion among the masculine societies, Japan, had the highest national Agoraphobic fear score. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd.
