Abstract

ABSTRACT Students’ development of intercultural competence during stays abroad has been subject to numerous studies due to the vital importance of intercultural interaction in the globalised world. In the present cross-sectional study, we provide and test a theoretical frame connecting self-efficacy theory of learning and intercultural learning, examining the remembered parenting style of N = 203 German students as a moderating variable to contribute to the understanding of intercultural competence as the result of a learning process. We predicted and found that self-efficacy mediates the relationship between length of stay abroad and intercultural competence, depending on the perception of an emotional warm parenting style. Contrary to our assumptions, the parenting styles control, and punishment do not moderate the relationship between length of stay abroad and self-efficacy. The current study thus contributes to the understanding of intercultural learning as a result of accomplishing intercultural challenges and learning, with implications for further research and practice.

父母教养方式在留洋、自我效能和跨文化能力关系中的作用

摘要：在全球化的世界中，跨文化交际具有极其重要的意义，因此，学生在留学期间的跨文化能力发展受到了众多研究的关注。在本横断面研究中，我们提供并测试了一个连接学习自我效能理论和跨文化学习的理论框架，考察了N = 203名德国学生作为一个调节变量，有助于理解学习过程中的跨文化能力。我们预测并发现，自我效能感在国外停留时间和跨文化能力之间起中介作用，这取决于对情感温暖育儿风格的感知。与我们的假设相反，父母教养方式的控制和惩罚并不能缓和出国时间与自我效能之间的关系。因此，本研究有助于理解跨文化学习是完成跨文化挑战和学习的结果，并对进一步的研究和实践具有启示意义。
