The statistical findings established that out of 12 hypotheses 8 hypotheses were significant and 4 hypotheses were insignificant. The study meaningfully contributes to the literature of Hofstede’s findings by adding into significant and positive relationships of feminine orientation and perception of monetary and non-monetary rewards.
