Abstract

The purpose of this quantitative causal-comparative research was to investigate the difference between cultural intelligence of university students who have participated in Erasmus Student Mobility program and of those who have not, while their personality trait “openness to experience” is controlled. Data were collected from 450 students at a public university in Ankara studying in different disciplines and at varying grade levels through survey: Cultural Intelligence Scale, and Openness to Experience sub-scale of Big Five Inventory Scale. MANCOVA results indicated that participating in Erasmus Program has a statistically significant effect on all sub-dimensions of cultural intelligence (metacognitive, cognitive, motivational, and behavioral), when openness to experience personality trait is controlled. Moreover, the results showed that openness to experience personality trait is a statistically significant covariate for the study.

Özet

Bu nicel-nedensel karşılaştırma çalışmasının amacı, kültürel zekâ değişkeninin Erasmus Öğrenim Hareketliliği Programı’na katılan ve katılmayan öğrenciler arasında farklılık gösterip göstermediğini, “deneyime açıklık” kişilik özelliğini kontrol altında tutarak incelemektir. Çalışmanın verileri, Ankara’da bir devlet üniversitesinde farklı bölümlerde ve sınıf seviyesinde öğrenim gören 450 üniversite öğrencisinden toplanmıştır. Çalışmada veri toplama araçları olarak araştırmacı tarafından Türkçeye uyarlanan Kültürel Zekâ Ölçeği ve Beş Faktör Kişilik Ölçeği – Deneyime Açıklık alt boyutu kullanılmıştır. Çok Değişkenli Kovaryans Analizinin (MANCOVA) sonuçları, Erasmus Öğrenim Hareketliliği Programı’na katılımın deneyime açıklık kişilik özelliği kontrol altında tutulduğunda, kültürel zekânın tüm alt boyutları üzerinde (üst-biliş, biliş, motivasyon ve davranış) istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir etkisi olduğunu göstermiştir. Ayrıca sonuçlar, deneyime açıklık kişilik özelliğinin, bu çalışma için önemli bir eşdeğişken faktör olduğunu göstermiştir.
