A small global village: the effects of collectivist, tight and | ResearchBunny

Index

Abstract

This study analyzes the spread of COVID-19 from a cross-country/region cultural perspective and finds that countries and regions with a collectivistic, Confucian or tight (restrictive) culture experience a lower spread rate of COVID-19. The results are robust to controlling for several factors, including population, age structure, GDP per capita, previous SARS occurrence, smoking prevalence, and religion. The effect of culture is stronger during lockdowns.
