Abstract

The purpose of this study was to confirm the relationship between individual background factors, self-respect, empathy, and intercultural sensitivity of the college students who listen to the courses related to China. Therefore, the researchers surveyed N University students who took public elective courses related to China in the first semester of 2023. 115 valid questionnaires were collected. SPSS 25 was used to analyze the data and process the data. The results showed that intercultural sensitivity varies according to individual background variables (sex, expatriate experience). Therefore, it is effective to increase the intercultural sensitivity of college students by increasing their opportunities for multicultural contact. In addition, there is a correlation between intercultural sensitivity and self-respect and empathy. In particular, intercultural sensitivity was more influenced by self-respect than empathy. In other words, it can improve the self-respect and intercultural sensitivity of college students at the same time to achieve the same effect with half an effort. The sample size of this study is relatively small, so the results of this study have great limitations. It needs to be further confirmed through a wide range of studies.
