Article Synopsis
- Honor cultures focus on protecting reputation and have strong expectations for defending one's honor, with variations across U.S. states.
- A new six-item index was developed to measure honor norms in all states, improving on previous binary classifications.
- This index was validated through correlations with historical factors related to honor cultures and its ability to predict specific outcomes linked to honor, like homicide and suicide rates.
