Collectivist cultures prioritize group cohesion and harmony, but this doesn't necessarily translate to being more likely to get along with strangers. In collectivist societies, strong distinctions are often made between in-group (family, close friends, and extended social networks) and out-group members (strangers), with trust and cooperation primarily reserved for in-group members.
