AB - The objective of this study was to compare the relationship of two forms of patriotism to important sociopolitical values in a Korean and an American University. Constructive patriotism represents a commitment to the ideals of one’s country and a willingness to question current societal actions in a society that appear inconsistent with those ideals. On the other hand, blind patriotism reflects allegiance to the current policies of one’s government, irrespective of their lack of consistency with the ideals of that country. The two measures of patriotism were correlated with emphasis on civil liberties, national security, and militarism. The latter values have been heavily emphasized in American society since the occurrence of 9/11. In the current study, college students in an American University (n = 222) and a Korean University (n = 215) were administered a 50-item survey measuring five sociopolitical dimensions: constructive patriotism, blind patriotism, respect for civil liberties, emphasis on national security, and militarism. The two samples obtained similar means for emphasis on national security and constructive patriotism, but the American sample scored significantly lower (p < .001) on respect for civil liberties and higher (p < .001) on blind patriotism and militarism than the Korean sample. Although the correlations between patriotism measures and the remaining sociopolitical constructs were directionally consistent across the two samples, the correlations were substantially stronger in the American sample. Few gender differences were evident in the findings for either sample.
