  1. Population density is positively correlated with tightness-looseness (p. 1101).Gelfand, Michele J. - Differences between tight and loose cultures: a 33-nation study, 2011 - 2 Variables

    This article explores differences between "tight" cultures ("have many strong norms and low tolerance of deviant behavior") and "loose" cultures ("have weak social norms and high tolerance of deviant behavior"). The tightness-looseness measure manifests in a myriad of macro and micro phenomena, from governance and religiosity to individual psychological processes. This study investigates these phenomena in modern nations rather than traditional societies. Potential ecological, historical, and socio-political predictors of tightness-looseness are also examined.
