The group process varies according to the cultures of those participating. Thus, a Greek perceives survival as dependent upon the support of his ingroup. His personal actualization is achieved within the context of the group; his goals are syntonic with its goals. The American views the basic unit of society as the individual and his goal of personal achievement as an independent one. He sees his goal as gained by hard work and planning; self-confidence and happiness ensue. For the Greek, the antecedents of success are patience, will power, courage, and coöperation. The results are interdependence and love of others. The Greek matures through feelings, the American through deeds. Americans acknowledge that there is conflict within their ingroup but feel this does not weaken it; with this the Greek disagrees.
