This observation is consistent with Hofstede's dimension of power distance, which reflects the extent to which less powerful members of organizations and institutions accept and expect that power is distributed unequally. A large power distance culture means that there is a significant amount of inequality in power and people lower in the hierarchy tend to accept their lower status as the norm, resulting in a more submissive attitude.
