An analysis of Defense Mechanism Inventory scores from Indian and white adolescents indicated some cultural differences. Differences between white, male-female performance scores were found in all five defense catagories. Differences between Indian, male-female performance scores were found for three of the five defense categories. Indian-white differences were found only for males and involved the two categories of turning against object and reversal. It was concluded that Indian child-rearing practices and culture may foster the development of reversal type defenses and inhibit the development of turning against object type defense within Indian males.
对印度和白人青少年防御机制量表得分的分析表明存在一些文化差异。在所有五个防御类别中都发现了白人性别间的表现得分差异。在五个防御类别中的三个类别中发现了印度人性别间的表现得分差异。印度人和白人之间的差异仅在男性中发现，涉及转向客体和反向这两个类别。研究得出结论，印度的育儿方式和文化可能促进印度男性反向型防御的发展，并抑制转向客体型防御的发展。
