According to Triandis et al. (1988) and Schwartz(1994), the dimension of I/C and M/F can explain communication differences between cultures. Noesjirwan(978) examined communication in in-group and out-group relationships and found that Indonesian members of the group could adapt to the group(collectivism). In Australia the group members are expected to do their own thing' even if they must go against the group individualism). The literature indicates evidence of cultural differences in communication between Japanese and Americans(Barnlund, 1989; Gudykunst and Nishida, 1983; Okabe, 1983), Markus and Kitayama(1991) argued that cultural variations in individualism and collectivism are linked to the ways members of cultures see themselves and behav e.g., whether they feel as part of social relationship or emphasize the self. Gudykunst and Ting-Toomey(1988) argued that low- and high cont communication styles are also a function of individualism collectivism, For example, members of individualistic cultures are more emotion and pleasure oriented, members of collectivistic culture are more concemed of indi with avoiding hurting others and imposing on them. Members vidualistic cultures use direct requests as the most effective strategy foraccomplishing their goals, while members of collectivistic culture enzive direct requests as the least effective strategy(Kim and Wilson, 1994)
