El Impacto de la Personalidad Multicultural en la Tolerancia al Diversidad en Estudiantes de una Universidad Portuguesa
Contenido principal del artículo
Resumen
En este artículo se analiza la relación entre la personalidad multicultural y la tolerancia a la diversidad basada en un grupo de 245 estudiantes universitarios portugueses. El análisis de correlación permitió observar la relación entre las diversas dimensiones de la personalidad multicultural (la empatía cultural, la apertura mental, iniciación social y flexibilidad), de acuerdo con la construcción y el instrumento de medición. Se observo que existe una fuerte asociación entre la personalidad multicultural y la tolerancia para los miembros de las diferentes comunidades culturales. Simultáneamente, el factor de la “apertura mental” resultó ser un predictor positivo de la tolerancia en contextos interculturales. Además, se discuten las implicaciones prácticas de estos resultados.
