摘要

隨著經濟的全球化發展，國與國之間的競爭日益白熱化，國家為了提升人民的國際水準與素養，每個國家皆盡全力在推動教育國際化的改革，尤其是高等教育國際化更是備受重視。以國家經濟發展來說，透過人才的流動與研發的能力，藉由這兩者，國家能進一步提升知識的能量；除此之外，教育屬於外交政策的一環，教育的跨國合作也是外交政策的一項投資，對國際體制間的安全與和平等關係有很大的貢獻。「教育國際化」已成為近年來世界各國都積極推動的目標。
本研究以外國學生為研究對象，瞭解文化智商與文化衝擊之關係，並以跨文化適應為中介變項。本研究採用問卷調查，共發放問卷457份，有效問卷為349份，有效回收率為85.77％。本研究採用迴歸方法與皮爾森(Pearson)相關分析分析資料，研究結果顯示：(1) 外國學生本身之文化智商高低會影響其受到文化衝擊的程度，並且呈現負相關(2)外國學生本身文化智商愈高，其跨文化適應能力愈高(3) 跨文化適應能力愈高受到的文化衝擊愈低(4)跨文化適應在文化智商與文化衝擊之間具有中介效果。
最後根據研究發現， 本研究進一步探討實證結果在教育單位及實務上之意涵、研究限制與未來研究方向，期望能夠提供相關單位參考。
