This article examines methodological issues related to the measurement of implicit motives in culturally divergent samples. Implicit motives are seen as basic needs shared by all human beings. However, cross cultural comparisons are very restricted because many cross - cultural studies on implicit motives with non western cultures developed and discussed culture inherent stimuli. The aim of thes study here was to search for a culture - independent set of picture stimuli measuring two basic motives (affiliation and power motive) in three different cultures. Two pretests and one main study were carried out in camerroon, costa rica, and germany with student and non student samples, respectively and an extended methodological cross - cultural analysis was conducted. Construct bias, method bias, and item bias that threaten the cross - cultural comparability of findings were addressed. In analyses, unbiased culture - independent sets of picture stimuli were identified that can be used for cross - cultural comparisons of these two implicit motives.
