How Far Can a Brand Stretch? Understanding the Role of Self-Construal (2008, background): “…the entire field or background is assessed (e.g., Kuhnen, Hannover, and Schubert 2002), or by assessing the extent to which respondents focus on the situation/context compared with the disposition of the target in generating attributions for behaviors (e.g., Norenzayan, Choi, and Nisbett 2002).”
Understanding the Individualism-Collectivism Cleavage and Its Effects: Lessons from Cultural Psychology (2012, background): “It turns out that there is now a body of evidence showing that this bias is not present in collectivist cultures where the situation is taken more into account than the dispositions of individual (see e.g., Norenzayan et al. 2002).”

Cross-Cultural Consumer Behavior: A Review of Research Findings (2011, unknown): “Easterners believe in the continuous shaping of personality traits by situational influences (Norenzayan, Choi, and Nisbett 2002).”
