2) rules
3) laws
4) family
5) habits
i feel that language is the most common cultural barrier to creativity. people are sometimes ashamed of their accent that they don't say anything at all. I know that in filipino culture, they get teased a lot by filipino americans all the time. they call them FOBS. They get ridiculed for their language barrier that it may affect them from sharing.
another problem i could see are rules. rules can play a big issue because in asian culture, we view silence as being respectful. We tend to not speak out because as students must stay the role as students and we must obey and listen. it is weird for most middle eastern people to come to america and speak because in some cultures they weren't allowed to voice their opinion. in ways, it would be illegal to do so. so , if you have one of those exchange students, a rule barrier might take place in effect.
Lastly, family might be a problem as well. sometimes the way we are raised has a lot to do with how we interact. some people have are taught at home to speak their mind while others are taught to be quiet.
