I have asian parents and they had more of a collectivist view. I came out as an individualist bc of intergenerational trauma and autism (sometimes people with autism tend to be more individualistic)

Individualism for teens is a struggle.. Moist individualistic teens raised and more as teens are problematic and most likely to do drugs …. SORRY YOU KNOW IT IS TRUE… Look at teens in individualistic mindset, they are unhappy, sad, and lost likely get depressed compared to the collective.. THIS are facts, if you don’t believe try to observe..

I was raised as an individualist in America but I have have an internal “force” that is moving me towards collectivism. I am beginning to believe that the US may see its downfall in its individualism ideas. Can democracy exist without a collectivism mind set?

Individualism helps capitalism, negative more prone to depression. Collectivism much happier society, even when in poverty.

Prime is having both. Having that community to have that connection and sense of purpose. Having some individualism on the work place and business side helps prosper

Does ones temperament count regardless of where he or she falls with regard to individualism or collectivism ?
