Strong socialization pressures toward compliance (vis-???-vis assertion) are exerted in societies with important pastoral subsistence activities.[sup 3] Agriculturally based societies are somewhat less likely to emphasize compliance, and hunting-gathering societies much less likely to do so. In herding societies particularly, food must be accumulated and cared for. Emphasis on compliance should help to make children into responsible adults in societies where the food supply has to be tended carefully throughout the year--but at the same time, evidence suggests that a personal style which involves an unquestioning compliance with authority may have a depressing effect on cognitive development. LeVine,[sup 4] on the basis of an extensive review of psychological studies in non-Western societies, concludes that severe compliance training may produce either an inhibition of cognitive performance or a deficit in cognitive capacity.
