The authors propose that cultural frame shifting - shifting between two culturally based interpretative lenses in response to cultural cues - is moderated by perceived compatibility (vs. opposition) between the two cultural orientations, or bicultural identity integration (BII). Three studies found that chinese american biculturals who perceived their cultural identities as compatible (high BII) responded in culturally congruent ways to cultural cues : they made mroe external attributions (a charactersitically asian behaviour) after being exposed to chinese primes and more internal attributions (a characteristically western behaviour) after being exposed to american primes. However, chinese american biculturals who perceived their cultural identities as oppositional (low BII) exhibited a reverse priming effect. This trend was not apparent for non cultural primes. The results show that individual differences in bicultural identity affect how cultural knowledge is used to interpret social events.
