Tiivistelmä: | Social decision-making strategies among adolescents who grew up in Finland and experienced Western individualistic educational practices were compared with adolescents who grew up in Estonia during the period of Soviet collectivist culture. Subjects were provided three everyday social problems, namely mobbing , teasing, and stealing. The fixed alternative solution for these problems assessed aggressiveness, prosociality, social responsibility, and withdrawing. The findings showed that Estonian adolescents were more aggressive and showed lower levels of social responsibility than their Finnish peers. In contrast to the official Soviet educational goal, withdrawing was shown to be the most typical way of solving social problems among Estonian students. |
