Citations in the corpus

• Cross-cultural Continuities and Discontinuities in Shame, Guilt, and Pride: A Study of Children Residing in Japan, Korea and the USA (2012, background): “Japanese people are sensitive to, and are more apt to internalize, criticisms (Kanagawa, Cross, & Markus, 2001 ; Markus & Kitayama, 1994 ).”
• Assessing the Validity of Self Construal Scales: A Response to Levine et al. (2003, background): “Kanagawa et al. (2001) point out that the content of the working self-concept is determined by the social situation at a given time and by the person’s current goals, affect, and motivational state.”
• Interjudge Agreement, Self-Enhancement, and Liking: Cross-Cultural Divergences (2002, background): “To the extent that Americans are more consistent than Japanese across situations (e.g., Heine, 2001; Kanagawa et al., 2001; Suh, 2002), there should be less discrepancy in the information that peers and selves have, thus enhancing self-peer agreement.”
• Social Identity and Self-Regulation (2007, unknown): “This interesting methodology has not been replicated by other cultural psychology researchers, with the exception of a conceptual replication is by Kanagawa, Cross, and Markus (2001), which unfortunately had in-conclusive results.”
• Self-concept consistency and short-term stability in eight cultures (2012, methodology): “Using a different methodology, Kanagawa, Cross, and Markus (2001) had Americans and Japanese fill out a sentence completion measure of self-concept while situated in different contexts.”
• Culture and Context-sensitive Self: The Amount and Meaning of Context-sensitivity of Phenomenal Self Differ Across Cultures (2004, background): “As Kanagawa et al. (2001) noted, to ‘‘behave just the way you are’’ may mean to be true to the self-in-context in Japan.”
• Online Language: The Role of Culture in Self-Expression and Self-Construal on Facebook (2010, methodology): “It has been used frequently in cross-cultural studies that investigate the nature of self-concept (e.g., Bochner, 1994; Cousins, 1989; Kanagawa et al., 2001).”
• Language and the Bicultural Self (2002, background): “Although some past researchers have included structured scales (e.g., Heine et al., 1999) and others have used open-ended measures (e.g., Kanagawa et al., 2001), few have incorporated both.”
• Self‐Construal Scales Lack Validity (2003, background): “The data also seem to corroborate the arguments of Kanagawa et al. (2001), Kitayama (2002) and Markus and Kitayama (1998) that self-report scales may be ill-suited to study interdependent self-construal.”
