摘要本研究探讨了跨文化交际对短期留学日本学生的影响。定量分析表明，学生认为出国留学拓宽了他们的视野。半结构化访谈确定了五类影响：英语的运用、人际沟通技巧、参与全球社会、为更大的可能性打开大门以及积极的生活态度。为了解释这些变化，从认知行为疗法的理论，并提出了跨文化交际的认知修正模型。这项研究提出的证据表明，跨文化交际可以是一个机会，以认识和修改一个人的认知评价最初植根于一个人的家乡文化。
Abstract This study investigates the impact of intercultural communication on Japanese students during short-term study-abroad programmes. Quantitative analysis indicates the students believe study-abroad broadened their views. Semi-structured interviews identify five categories of impact: utilization of English language, interpersonal communication skills, involvement in global society, opening doors to greater possibilities and positive attitudes towards living. To explain these changes, a theory from cognitive behavioural therapy is applied and a cognitive modification model for intercultural communication is proposed. The study presents evidence that intercultural communication can be an opportunity to recognize and modify one’s cognitive appraisals initially grounded in one’s home culture.
