   @roka Looks like they took enwp.org/Hofstede%27s_cultural_dimensions_theory and added two dimensions. Where is this from?

     > Independent research in Hong Kong led Hofstede to add a fifth dimension, long-term orientation, to cover aspects of values not discussed in the original paradigm. In 2010, Hofstede added a sixth dimension, indulgence versus self-restraint.
     
     Oh! Well there you go then. :-)

     @roka It would be interesting to see how these measurements map to national averages on the Big5 scales.

     @roka I know these are supposed to be sort of value-neutral, culturally relative judgements, "well, you can arrange your culture like this, or you can do it like this" ...
     
     ... but Sweden basically wins every category. ;-)

     @roka Swedish cultural conformism isn't captured by Hofstede's measurements. Individualist collectivism is beyond his model.
     
     It may not be the key to human happiness, but it provides very good commercial performance.

     @roka Yeah, maybe you could tease it out from some of the other indicators that seem contradictive.
