2016年，日本约有240万国际居民。这些居民中有70%不会说英语。然而，医学和护理学校强调医学英语教育，而不是采取更广泛的方法，包括不同的文化。这就是为什么目前的医疗保健专业人员在处理国际患者，特别是那些来自非英语国家的患者时会遇到困难。因此，将我们的观点从如何在技术上支持国际患者转变为如何提高医疗保健专业人员的跨文化能力至关重要。摘要本文旨在通过对日本和美国教育学和医疗保健领域跨文化能力的比较研究，阐明跨文化能力的概念及其意义，从而探讨两国跨文化能力的异同。结果表明，当比较教育学和医疗保健的跨文化能力的概念，而组件是相似的，历史背景的概念和使用的社会背景是不同的（两个学科之间）。为了理解跨文化能力的概念，定义日本在医疗保健和教育学方面的跨文化能力的跨学科概念至关重要。
There are approximately 2.4 million international residents in Japan in 2016. Seventy percent of these residents do not speak English. However, medical and nursing schools emphasize education in Medical English, rather than taking a broader approach that encompasses diverse cultures. This is why current healthcare professionals struggle in dealing with international patients, especially those from non-English speaking countries. Therefore, shifting the viewpoint from how we can technically support international patients to how we can improve the intercultural competence of healthcare professionals is critical. the aim of this literature review is to examine the similarities and differences between the intercultural competence in pedagogy and healthcare in Japan and the US by comparing literatures from both fields, and by clarifying how intercultural competence has been conceptualized as well as its significance. Results show that when comparing the concept of intercultural competence in pedagogy and healthcare, while the components are similar, the historical background of the concept and the social contexts in use are different (between the two disciplines). In order to understand the concept of intercultural competence, it is critically important to define Japan’s own interdisciplinary concept of intercultural competence in both healthcare and pedagogy.
