Answer to Question 1

A cultural value must be of core importance to its culture. In other words, it must be enduring and held dear by most, if not all, of a culture's members. An example of another American cultural value besides individualism is cleanliness. Advertising cannot change the value except in the broadest, long-term sense, and even that is questionable. Advertisers can attempt to associate themselves with a value or criticize a competitor for being out of step with one.
