Answer to Question 1

Openness includes traits such as open-mindedness, tolerance for ambiguity, and extrovertedness, all of which facilitate intercultural communication and help the individual adjust to the cross-cultural experience. Resilience is an attribute that helps one achieve cultural adaptation in a cross-cultural context. It includes traits such as having an internal locus of control, persistence, a tolerance for ambiguity, and resourcefulness.

Answer to Question 2

Research has identified seven characteristics that facilitate intercultural communication effectiveness: respect, interaction posture, orientation to knowledge, empathy, interaction management, tolerance for ambiguity, and other-oriented role behavior.
