The relationship between communication and culture is complex. Communication enables the sharing of behaviors and ideas that form common cultures within groups. Worldviews, values, and norms shaped by a culture influence communication patterns. Scholars like Kluckhohn and Strodbeck studied how cultures develop differing answers to questions about human nature and social relationships. Hofstede identified dimensions along which cultures vary, such as individualism vs collectivism and power distance. These dimensions reflect how societies handle inequality, social goals, and relationships between individuals and groups.
