Abstract

Les compétences interculturelles sont difficiles à évaluer, et les facteurs permettant de les développer, mal connus. Cette étude opérationnalise une conceptualisation multidimensionnelle de la compétence interculturelle, incluant traits de personnalité et connaissances. Une enquête auprès de 443 personnes de 27 pays, et à l'expérience internationale très variable, montre que les personnes ayant le plus d'expériences internationales sont aussi celles dont les compétences interculturelles sont les plus élevées. Mais l'impact de l'expérience internationale sur la compétence interculturelle atteint seulement 5%. L'expérience internationale ne peut donc pas être utilisée comme « proxy » pour la compétence interculturelle. Les résultats révèlent également l'existence d'effets de seuil liés aux voyages à l'étranger.
