The development of an instrument to identify dispositions for interactive group communications in cross-cultural learning environmentsMiller, Dwight Errol 30 November 1993 (has links)
An increased cross-cultural interaction around the world is
being dictated by the ever increasing communication needs required
by business and national concerns. This increased interaction, and its
resultant inter-dependence, is often referred to as "Globalization."
Due to the effect of globalization on the business and education
environments, this study was an investigation of the theory base
regarding context as embedded in the development of culture and
cross-cultural communications. The study developed an instrument
that 1) measures the contextual preferences of individuals from a
variety of cultures, and 2) determines the level of significant
differences between cultures based on their contextual preferences.
The literature review concentrated on those characteristics which
allow us to go beyond specific cultural barriers to communication.
This was done to determine a common ground beyond culture, which
is inherent in the communications process, and to allow a
determination of factors for improved cross-cultural training and
education. The literature review focused on:
- The effects of the globalized environment
- The influence of culture on communications
- A cross-cultural communications model
- Context and individualism/collectivism as measures of
cross-cultural communications.
The findings of the study provide an initial instrument that can
be used for the identification of personal preferences, based on
context, that may determine an individual's predisposition to interact
in a cross-cultural learning environment. The data analyzed notes
significant differences in major cultural groupings, and some specific
cultures.
Specific analysis included the contextual preferences of
individuals based on their home cultural environment, the dimensions
of gender, age, number of years an individual is away from their home
culture and the number of languages spoken. It was concluded that
there are highly significant differences between cultures, even with
common ancestral ties and geographic proximity, that affect how
individuals will interact and communicate across cultural boundaries.
These differences, based on non-verbal context, must be considered
individually in their sub-component form, not just within the overall
classification of context. / Graduation date: 1994

Humor creation and appreciation as an indicator of intercultural communication effectiveness : toward a theoretical modelTavano, Richard D. 01 January 1986 (has links)
A review of the theoretical and empirical literature from the field of humor and from that of intercultural communication showed that no investigations dealt with the possibility that a sense of humor might serve as an indicator of intercultural communication effectiveness. This study was conducted in order to assess that possibility.
This paper has set out to answer the following questions: What cognitive processes are common to a sense of humor and to intercultural communication effectiveness? What does one's ability to create and appreciate humor say about that individual's potential for intercultural communication effectiveness? Through the review of the literature, specific connections were suggested as theoretical connecting points or parallels. The processes suggested as common to humor and intercultural communication included the following: the ability to note difference; the ability to note and appreciate incongruity; the ability to process information both analytically and synthetically; the ability to shift frame of reference; the ability to perceive, communicate and maintain multiple perspectives; a tolerance for ambiguity; the possession of an internal locus of control; and the ability to act and react appropriately to others and to context.
In an attempt to develop a theoretical link between these processes considered crucial to a sense of humor and to intercultural communication effectiveness, cognitive complexity theory was examined. Through this examination it was found that the cognitively complex individual possessed qualities and abilities consistent with those which had been found to be typical of people with a sense of humor and with people considered to be effective intercultural communicators. This suggested that cognitive complexity could serve as the theoretical tool by which a sense of humor may be seen as an indicator of intercultural communication effectiveness.
