In addition, they answered a survey about their global perspectives. Students who reported greater confidence in their ability to communicate in English also tended to hold perspectives that have been linked to the concept of global citizenship, such as a tendency to resist stereotyping, or to be nonchauvinistic. The results showed that confidence in using communicative English increased with length of enrollment in the college. However, the predictive link between English communication skills and global perspectives was found to be independent of length of enrollment in the college.}, pages = {81--96}, title = {英語力に相関する地球的規模での理解力--日本の教養重視型大学在籍学生を例として}, volume = {11}, year = {2005} }
