Transcript: Focus on definition by Christopher Earley and Elaine Mosakowski (2009) Three dimensions cognitive CQ: “head” – awareness, self-awareness, knowledge motivational/emotional CQ: “heart” – perseverance, goal settings behavioral/physical CQ: “action” – adjust behaviors to cultural environment. H3b: Positive association between CQ and MTW weakens with IE H4a: CQ is positively associated with student’s learning satisfaction H4b: CQ is positively associated with student’s future employability H4c: CQ is positively associated with student’s academic achievement CQ as the ultimate outcome of intercultural occurrences Constructs of CQ should be more investigated to measure students’ learning satisfaction CQ training and education is important to improve students’ academic achievement Complexity of IE, MTW and CQ in the same context Research on the role of geographical positions on CQ influences. Consider MTW in attitude instead of involvement frequency (50% frequent, others experience) Select 3 dimensions instead of 4 in the construct of CQ 30% in total have intention to find a job -. Context not appropriate for future employment Subjective issues of online questionnaire might be biased Reference list Available upon request GPA Employability Learning satisfaction MTW can provide companies with significant gains in productivity. MTW’s members are expected to embrace cultural knowledge. Cross cultural group and team offer chances to gain CQ Cultural diversity in team: the more they adapt, the more competent they are. Implication for future research Conclusion The essence of cultural intelligence in the globalization era. What is cultural intelligence – CQ? APU – international institution – appropriate for developing CQ. The relationship between CQ and performance thanks to the influence of IE and MTW. Previous researches studied about these associations in the context of organizations and corporates Important to develop global talent or leadership IE can be fully utilized to develop CQ: positive effects on CQ IE: living in another country more than 6 months, even traveling to a new country. Positive association between CQ and IE, MTW MTW increases CQ overtime, important source of CQ development. CQ affects MTW as well High CQ in team members accelerates team integration, promote team cohesion, foster global identity CQ people will gain more from IE and exposure to culturally diverse settings H4b not wholly supported Student's performance H3b supported Limitation People with IE: more open minded, knowledge about culture benefits when participating in MTW skills to communicate, work in unfamiliar backgrounds H3: IE and MTW jointly influence CQ MTW and IE are predictors for CQ, can serve as substitutes in strengthening CQ level Positive association between CQ factors and students’ academic achievement Cognitive CQ and physical CQ predicts degree of learning satisfaction Emotional CQ and physical CQ relates to future employability for undergraduates Strongly expected that students are eager to intensify their skills in MTW, flourish in their IE to build on their CQ then flashing prospects in prevailing globalization scenario. Outline Implication and limitation H1, H2, H4c are supported. Testing H3, H3a, H3b: Smart PLS is used to find the association among three factors: IE, MTW, CQ CQ predicts performance and adjustment outcomes in multicultural situations (Ang, 2007) CQ is important to elements of success, including career success. Introduction DANG Minh Huyen (Anne) Undergraduate thesis Multicultural teamwork Cultural intelligence International Multicultural teamwork Experience H3a not supported Empirically examine the role of CQ with performance outcomes in relations with IE and MTW.

Dominant, Contentious and Precise communicator styles have positive effects but should be employed in moderation and coupled with affirming communicator styles such as Friendliness and Attentiveness. (Taylor, 1997; Infante and Gorden, 1989) 2. Disciples prefer communicator styles that cater to the relational dimension of discipleship (Friendly, Attentive) than those that reach to the informational dimension (Dominant, Contentious, Precise). 4. To create relationship satisfaction with their disciples, disciplers should become more open to them (Koike, 1988). 5. Disciplers should know their disciples well.

Transcript: Article Overview: Autism Preschool Peer-Mediated PECS Intervention Picture Exchange Communication System and Pals: A Peer-Mediated Augmentative and Alternative Communication Intervention for Minimally Verbal Preschoolers With Autism Introduction “The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a PECS intervention combined with peer-mediated instruction to increase communication between children with autism and typically developing preschool children in routine social activities.” PECS, or Picture Exchange Communication System, was designed to allow people with communication difficulties to communicate through pictures. Peer mediated instruction involves teaching peers of children with autism how to be responsive in social situations in order to further increase communication and integration. Researchers simply wanted to improve on what previous studies had done using PECS and peer mediated instruction. Kathy Thiemann-Bourque Nancy Brady Keenan Stump Amy Naylor Sara McGuff The Authors Who are the authors? Kathy Thiemann-Bourque is an associate research professor at the University of Kansas. Nancy Brady is a speech-language-hearing professor at the University of Kansas. Keenan Stump is a speech-language pathologist for New Balloon Therapy Services in Kansas City, MO. Main Authors “Does teaching peers to be responsive communication partners using PECS affect rates of functional communication of nonverbal or minimally verbal preschoolers with autism?” Hypothesis Hypothesis Methods The authors taught the peers how to use PECS when interacting with a child with ASD. Intervention followed for several weeks, and carryover of skill was determined. A baseline was determined, intervention followed, then generalization probes were completed. All interactions were coded live during intervention as a communication mode, behavior, or function. Independent variable- PECS sessions with focus child and peer Dependent variable- communication abilities of focus child Participants Participants Coding Coding Results “A closer examination of the type of communication act—initiation or response—revealed that the peer’s responsiveness to the focus child’s communication increased more than did initiations..” With PECS, children become more comfortable requesting with varied partners across settings. Results Results Initiations Initiations Responses Responses Discussion “A noteworthy feature of this study was the involvement of peers without disabilities and examination of an intervention that trained these peers to use PECS to be more effective communication partners for minimally verbal preschool children with autism.” The study fills a gap by listing specific measures of peer communication as well as specific peer teaching steps to make sure the study was both sound and replicable. In the future, researchers may choose to look into an environment’s effects on communication. For example, snack time seemed to encourage the two focus children to engage with their peer. Formal measures were not taken to document changes in social communication from the perspective of parents, peers, and teachers. More generalization sessions and changes should be documented when it comes to untrained peers in order to more accurately test carryover into the classroom. Intervention should be prolonged, and secondary gains in peers should be examined. Limits Limits Combining the prior studies on PECS with adults and peer intervention was extremely effective in teaching all children involved how to communicate in “natural, social settings”. With information from this study, autism intervention plans can be altered to be the most effective. Conclusion Conclusion Thiemann-Bourque, Kathy, et al.

Transcript: "A Third Culture Kid (TCK) is a person who has spent a significant part of his or her developmental years outside the parents' culture. The TCK frequently builds relationships to all of the cultures, while not having full ownership in any. Although elements from each culture may be assimilated into the TCK's life experience, the sense of belonging is in relationship to others of similar background."
