Abstract
Limited evidence exists that explores the reactions of host country nationals (HCNs) to ethnocentric pay policies of multinational enterprises (MNEs). However, HCNs are important both for facilitating expatriate adjustment and also for increasing MNE's effectiveness in the host nation. Using a social identity theory perspective, I argue that ascriptive identities formed on the basis of cultural values are deeply entrenched on the cognitive make-up of HCNs. MNEs that downplay national cultural beliefs may heighten hostility between HCNs and expatriates. I propose a cultural alignment model as a significant step toward integrating HCN's perceptions and a way to reduce social schism between expatriates and HCNs. Several positive outcomes resulting from cultural alignment are also discussed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
