The objective of this study was a transcultural comparison regarding illness-related causal and control attributes using a survey of healthy Germans in Germany, Spaniards in Spain and Spaniards in Germany. Each group contained 100 persons, matched according to sex, age and education. Germans showed more pronounced internal causal as well as control beliefs while Spaniards in Germany showed fatalistic attribution and Spaniards in Spain placed more emphasis on social aspects. It was possible to correctly assign over 75 percent of persons to a group depending on their characteristics in terms of causal and control attributions. Considerations of cultural and migration-related factors regarding public health appear especially promising.
本研究旨在通过对德国健康的德国人、西班牙的西班牙人和在德国的西班牙人进行调查，进行跨文化比较，了解与疾病相关的因果和控制属性。每组包含 100 人，根据性别、年龄和教育进行匹配。德国人表现出更明显的内在因果关系和控制信念，而在德国的西班牙人表现出宿命论的归因，而在西班牙的西班牙人则更强调社会方面。根据他们在因果和控制归因方面的特征，有超过 75%的人可以正确地被分配到一个群体中。考虑到与文化和移民相关的因素对公共卫生的影响，这种方法似乎特别有前途。
