Anita Goltnik Urnaut ; Faculty for Commercial and Business Science Celje, Celje, Slovenia

Sažetak

Intercultural intelligence is the capability to function effectively in culturally diverse settings and consists
of different dimensions (metacognitive, cognitive, motivational and behavioural) which are correlated to
effectiveness in global environment (cultural judgment and decision making, cultural adaptation and
task performance in culturally diverse settings). The purpose of the article was to check the relationship
between knowledge and experiences of intercultural communication and the score of cultural
intelligence. The sample consists of 107 students from Faculty for commercial and business science
Celje; they answered the questionnaire of education on Intercultural communication and the Cultural
intelligence scale (Ang, Dyne and Koh, 2006). The results show that the number of intercultural
knowledge sources, number of foreign languages knowledge, frequency of communication with persons
from other cultures in private and business time and frequency of international travels correlate
significanly with the score of Cultural intelligence scale and its dimensions.
