Great part of the efforts in international marketing and market segmentation focus on the comprehension and measurement of personal values in different cultures.

Besides, the external relations between Brazil and these countries are increasing. The goal of this book is to understand the concepts of culture, values and segmentation and to identify the similarities between Thai and Brazilian personal values. Through the application of the Rokeach Value Survey, several dimensions were found which were ordered to search similarities between the Brazilian and Thai value structures. As a result, it was verified that the instrumental values dimensions were grouped in similar ways in both countries and the terminal values were grouped partially similar. However, the ordering was not similar for any case.
