中文摘要:公益广告作为一种广告形式,与一个国家的社会习俗、社会价值观、道德标准、人文素质等有着密切的联系,公益广告作为一种有效劝导手段,能够帮助人们了解不足,解决社会问题。公益广告还能够传播文化,所以它不仅是一种语言现象,也是一种文化现象。

本文通过从霍夫斯泰德的五个文化维度出发,旨在中美文化探讨差异对公益广告造成的影响。研究发现中美广告在集体主义/个体主义,权力距离,不确定性规避,短期导向/长期导向四个维度上存在明显差异,在男性气质/女性气质这一维度上存在一些共同点。本文在研究文化差异对公益广告的影响的同时,也为国内公益广告的发展提出一些意见。

文章的第一部分介绍了研究的背景和意义,第二部分是文献综述,介绍了公益广告的定义,中美公益广告的发展历史,以往学者从跨文化角度对中美公益广告的研究。第三章重点从霍夫斯泰德五个文化维度对中美公益广告进行对比,并得出中美文化差异对公益广告的影响,并对中国的公益广告制作提出意见。最后一章是总结,对文章的主要发现进行小结并提出文章的局限性。
