<p>Assessment devices are developed with the undertaking of collecting data that will inform a valid and reliable crux of interest. Such information is mandatory as it will constitute a basis for responsible decision-making. In order to meet the projected function appropriately, any assessment device, let alone those for cross-cultural use, needs to be anomaly-free. While the use of assessment devices across nations has been ubiquitous worldwide, scrutinizing assessment devices for any existing covert defects is unavoidably imperative if fairness in the result interpretation is to be envisioned. This paper reviews briefly several concepts related with nuisances that potentially cause anomaly in assessment devices particularly for cross-cultural use.</p><p> </p><p><strong>Keywords:</strong> anomalies, assessment devices, cross-cultural studies</p>

Abstract Tomasello argues in the target article that, in generalizing the concrete obligations originating from interdependent collaboration to one's entire cultural group, humans become “ultra-cooperators.” But are all human populations cooperative in similar ways? Based on cross-cultural studies and my own fieldwork in Polynesia, I argue that cooperation varies along several dimensions, and that the underlying sense of obligation is culturally modulated.

Summary: This paper presents the results obtained in Spain with The Interpersonal Adjective Scales of J.S. Wiggins (1995) concerning the variables' structure. There are two Spanish versions of IAS, developed by two independent research groups who were not aware of each other's work. One of these versions was published as an assessment test in 1996. Results from the other group have remained unpublished to date. The set of results presented here compares three sources of data: the original American manual (from Wiggins and collaborators), the Spanish manual (already published), and the new IAS (our own research). Results can be considered satisfactory since, broadly speaking, the inner structure of the original instrument is well replicated in the Spanish version.

Three cross-cultural studies of subjective culture.
