uncertainty avoidance countries (Denmark, China,
Singapore, Ireland, Jamaica, Sweden, Hong Kong, United
Kingdom).
Gross domestic product per capita at the country level:
57 countries’ GDPPC values
come from the World Bank.
3.3. Analyses and Results
We started analyzing with all 57 countries but the results were not significant (p=0.015). Then, we divided these
countries into 3 with respect to their income levels: High income, upper middle income, lower middle- low income.
But again the results were not significant.
Finally,
two
subsamples have been created with inclusion criteria of
GDPPC and population. First, subsample consists of GDPPC over $20,000 and a
population of fewer than
30 million in order to further explore the relationship between UAI and the TEA of them or developed
nations. This subsample includes the sixteen more developed and smaller (i.e. population) nations of the
overall sample (i.e., United Arab Emirates,
Switzerland, Sweden,Singapore, Portugal, Norway,
Netherlands, Israel, Ireland, Hong Kong, Greece, Finland, Denmark, Belgium, Austria, Australia). Second
subsample consists of GDPPC over $20,000 USD and a population of over30 million. This subsample
includes only the most developed and larger nations and consists of eight countries (i.e.
United States of
America, France, Spain, Italy, Japan, Germany, South Korea, United Kingdom).
