  3. 5 Cultural Dimensions • Power Distance Index (PDI): The extent to which the less powerful members of organizations and institutions (like the family) accept and expect that power is distributed unequally. • Individualism (IDV): The degree to which individuals are integrated into groups. On the individualist side we find societies in which the ties between individuals are loose: everyone is expected to look after him/herself and his/her immediate family. • Masculinity (MAS): The distribution of roles between the genders which is another fundamental issue for any society to which a range of solutions are found. • Uncertainty Avoidance Index (UAI): UAI deals with a society's tolerance for uncertainty and ambiguity. It indicates to what extent a culture programs its members to feel either uncomfortable or comfortable in unstructured situations. • Long-Term Orientation (LTO) : Values associated with Long Term Orientation are thrift and perseverance; values associated with Short Term Orientation are respect for tradition, fulfilling social obligations, and protecting one's 'face'.
