The Relationship among Intercultural Communication Apprehension, Ethnocentrism, Uncertainty Reduction, and Communication Satisfaction during Initial Intercultural Interaction: An Extension of Anxiety and Uncertainty Management (AUM) Theory
Abstract
This paper presents the results of an examination of the relationship among intercultural communication apprehension, ethnocentrism, uncertainty reduction, and communication satisfaction during initial intercultural interaction. Poised within the theoretical assumptions of Anxiety and Uncertainty Management (AUM) Theory hypotheses are forwarded predicting that intercultural communication apprehension and ethnocentrism would negatively affect uncertainty reduction and communication satisfaction during initial intercultural encounters. In the first phase of the study, participants (N = 107) completed measures of intercultural communication apprehension and ethnocentrism. Replicating procedures of earlier uncertainty reduction research, participants in intercultural dyads (i.e., experimental group) and intracultural dyads (i.e., control group) were instructed to become acquainted. After a specified period of time, the dyads were separated and participants completed measures of uncertainty reduction and communication satisfaction. Correlational and regression analyses indicate that, for the experimental group, measures of intercultural communication apprehension and ethnocentrism were significantly and negatively correlated with measures of uncertainty reduction and communication satisfaction. For the control group, measures of intercultural communication apprehension and ethnocentrism were not correlated with measures of uncertainty reduction or communication satisfaction. Results are discussed within the parameters of AUM.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
