First, it is often difficult to link cultural factors to observed differences in psychological variables without a theory to sample cultures. Second, decades of cross-cultural research have shown that convenience sampling leads to biased sampling. Meta-analyses of cross-cultural studies indicate that a few geographical areas dominate the cross-cultural literature; examples are North America, East Asia, and Western Europe. Areas with very different cultures, such as Africa and South America, are much less represented in the literature (Öngel and Smith, 1994; Smith, Harb, Lonner, and Van de Vijver, 2001).
