Three studies examined the relation between cultural background and social comparison seeking. Compared to European Canadians, Asian Canadians sought more social comparisons, particularly those that were upward (Study 1), more social comparisons after failure (Study 2), and more social comparisons after failure when the opportunity for self - improvement was made salient (Study 3). Taken together, these data spotlight Asian Canadians’ interest in social comparisons that allow for self - improvement.
