Despite documented cross-cultural variability in autonomy and relatedness, relatively little is known about how these characteristic of self are socialized. This study, a secondary analysis (Dennis et al.,2002), explored this question by examining sequential verbal exchanges between Japanese and U.S. mother and children during play and challenging wait (N=60, M=55.8 months, SD=4.9). The likelihood that mother would contingently encorage child autonomy or relatedness by matching, responding positively, or reducing directives was tested. There was greater encouragement of relatedness among Japanese mother but few cultural differences in encouraging autonomy. Effect depended on the context of interaction, with greater cultural differences during the challenging wait. Culturally distinct gender effect also emerged: U.S. mother bolstered girls' autonomy and showed consisent encouragement of boys' relatedness whereas Japanese mother bolster autonomy in boys only. Implications for cross-cultural pattern in the socialzation of self are discussed.
