Coping Styles of Japanese College Students in Intercultural Contact Under a Multicultural Environment : Identifying a Typology on the Basis of the AUC-GS Learning Model Reviewed

Okunishi Yuri, Tanaka Tomoko

Multicultural Relations 6 53 - 68 2009

Language：Japanese Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal) Publisher：Japan Society for Multicultural Relations

In order to identify the typology of cross-cultural contact by Japanese hosts, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 15 Japanese students, who have experienced close interactions with international students. The narratives of the informants were analyzed on the basis of the framework of the AUC-GS learning model. The aspects of cross-cultural "awareness, understanding, and coping" were studied. The informants were examined with regard to whether they noticed the existence of cultural differences, understood the occurring mechanisms of cross-cultural problems, and successfully coped with those problems. The informants were divided into six categories. Some informants exhibited considerable awareness regarding cultural differences, understood problems between cultures, and thus, coped well. The educational challenges faced by Japanese host students are discussed in this study.

Cultural Support by Japanese Host Students : In Search of the Supportive Roles for International Students' Cross-Cultural Adaptation Reviewed

Okunishi Yuri, Tanaka Tomoko

Multicultural Relations 5 1 - 16 2008

Language：Japanese Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal) Publisher：Japan Society for Multicultural Relations

This research examines empirically the social support, especially cultural support for international students given by Japanese host students. 50 pairs of Japanese and international students answered a questionnaire, using quantitative scoring about the social support needs and perceived support of international students. The descriptive data regarding cultural support was also obtained and analyzed qualitatively. The results show that cultural support was relatively ranked high among other social support. Although there was no substantial discrepancy between social support needs and perceived support among the recognitions of the hosts and guests, Japanese students tend to put more emphasis on the understanding of international students' culture rather than explaining their culture to the guests. The future challenges for Japanese hosts are proposed.

Willingness to Communicate in Japanese as a Third Language among International Students in Japan Reviewed

Simic Mira, Tanaka Tomoko, Yashima Tomoko

Multicultural Relations 4 101 - 122 2007

Language：English Publishing type：Research paper (scientific journal) Publisher：Japan Society for Multicultural Relations

The present study examined the relationship between willingness to communicate (WTC) in English as second language (L2) and Japanese as third language (L3), and explored how some Japanese context-specific variables relate to WTC. The participants were 103 international students in Japan. Statistical analysis confirmed the hypothesis of a mutual negative relation between WTC in English and WTC in Japanese. That means that students who are more willing to communicate in English tend to be less willing to communicate in Japanese, and vice versa. An analysis of Japanese context variables and WTC discovered significant correlations. However, structural equation modeling (SEM) revealed a significant regression weight not from Japanese contexts to WTC as we hypothesized, but in the opposite direction. Japanese context variables seem to be not the antecedents but consequences of WTC. The implications of those findings are further discussed.
