Abstract

This study examined the means of and correlations between perceptions of willingness to communicate, communication competence, communication apprehension, and introversion of college students in the United States and Micronesia. Comparisons indicated significant differences between orientation of students in the two cultures. Micronesian students perceived themselves as more introverted and apprehensive but less competent and willing to communicate than American students. Additional findings indicate that significant sex differences exist between male and female students in Micronesia. Results are interpreted as having both cultural and language bases.
