Due to the process of globalization and immigration, many countries and societies have become culturally diverse. Thus, diversity is a contemporary research issue. In order to further explore the benefits of diversity at the societal level, this study explores diversity outcomes in 143 cultures. The researchers analyzed the data which surveyed 229,083 participants in 143 cultures in 2012. The results of Pearson correlation analysis suggest that diversity is positively correlated with GDP per capita, community attachment, job climate, and subjective wellbeing. This study empirically tests and supports Florida's (2002; 2012) Creative Class Theory. The findings of this study bring significant insights into diversity around the world. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
