G. Andrighetto, E. Székely, et al.
This study, conducted by a team of researchers, explores the shifts in social norms across 43 countries during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic. Interestingly, while handwashing norms rose significantly, the overall cultural tightness showed only minor decreases. This indicates that cultures tend to remain stable amidst global crises, except for norms relevant to health safety.
