Question 2

Research on cultural tendencies in the way people respond to survey questions has indicated that the wording of questions affects the way people in different cultures answer questions. Specifically, Kim et al.

(2009) reported that on the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression Scale (CES-D),
a. Mexican Americans engaged in nondifferentiation in their answers to questions more than African Americans.
b. European Americans reported a greater number of depressive symptoms than either African Americans or Mexican Americans even though European Americans have lower levels of actual depression.
c. Mexican Americans had higher levels of reported symptoms than Black or European Americans simply because of the wording of the questions.
d. European Americans showed greater levels of acquiescence in their responses even though their depression levels were about the same as for Mexican and African Americans.
