Detailed explanation-1: -Time Orientation and Culture. Time orientation is theorized as an unconscious yet fundamental cognitive process that people use for organizing personal experiences relevant to certain temporal dimensions in order to assign coherent meaning to those experiences (Kluckhohn & Strodtbneck, 1961).

Detailed explanation-2: -Timekeeping in different cultures Western cultures (including some parts of East Asia, such as Japan) tend to measure their time by the clock. According to their understanding, each activity should have a precise beginning and end. On the other hand, measuring time in Eastern cultures is event or personality-related.

Detailed explanation-3: -The time orientation of a culture affects how it values time, and the extent to which it believes it can control time. For example, America is often considered to be future-orientated, as compared to the more present-orientated France and the past-orientated Britain.

Detailed explanation-4: -Countries such as the US, Canada, Germany, and Switzerland are monochronic in their approach. By contrast, other cultures take a polychronic approach to how they see and manage time.
