  2. Purpose of the Study • Development of a Reliable & Valid Instrument to Measure (Changes in) the Intercultural Communication Competence of Students & Expatriates Who Go to Different Countries on Exchange or International Assignments • Questionnaire Serves to Assist Development of Relevant, Tailor-Made, & Cost-Efficient Intercultural Training Programs for the Two Target Groups (Expats, Students)

  3. Method & Design of the Study • Questionnaire for Self- & Peer-Evaluation • 10 Dimensions of Intercultural Communication Competence plus Background Info (Particularly in 1st Test-Round) • Test – Re-Test Design • Test Assesses Current ICC Strength & Deficiencies in Participant & Discloses Training Needs • Re-Test (Mostly Same Questions) Measures Learning Effect & Improvements/Still Existing Gaps/Further Need of Training

  4. Why Self- & Peer-Surveys? • Self-Evaluations Reflect Only One/Sender’s Perspective (Outward from Student/Expatriate) Incomplete Picture of Reality • Peer-Evaluations Reflect Second/Receiver’s Perspective (How is it Perceived by Host-Country Students/Workforce) More Complete Reflection of Reality • Difference Between Self- & Peer-Evaluation Reflects Pressing Intercultural Training Needs
