The aim of this study were to investigate and compare the cultural intelligence of undergraduate students in different academic disciplines at a university in Thailand, and to develop a causal cultural intelligence model of the undergraduate students. The sample was 840 3rd- and 4th-year undergraduate students. All of the faculties were grouped according to academic branches—health science, science and technology, and human and social science. The instrument was a questionnaire composed of demography data and a 5-point rating scale for questions about individual attributes. The ANOVA and MANOVA were used to compare the mean of the cultural intelligence among the 3 academic branches. Multiple group analysis for the structural equation model was used to examine the causal model. The findings showed that the means for none of the variables separated by academic branch was different and all of the variables were at a middle level. A causal cultural intelligence model was invariant across the three groups Download full text:Check if you have access through your login credentials or your institution Username Password
