The quantitative data from the study show that the participants' IC level was neither high nor low. Their level of IC was affected by age, study abroad experience, frequency of using Spanish, and positive intercultural experiences, but not by gender, college year, or number of foreign languages spoken. The findings have implications for intercultural educators and teachers of foreign languages.13 p.application/pdfeng(c) Chen, Tzu-Yiu, 2023Educació interculturalAdquisició d'una segona llenguaMulticultural educationSecond language acquisitioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/article7588952025-06-17info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
