Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

The self-reference criterion is defined as individuals' conscious and unconscious reference to their own national culture, to home-country norms, values, as well as to their knowledge and experience, in the process of making decisions in the host country. A first step to minimizing the impact of the self-reference criterion is selecting appropriate personnel for international assignments. Second, it is also important to train expatriates to focus on and be sensitive to the local culture.
