English term or phrase: Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI)

The Intercultural Development Inventory (IDI), developed by M.R. Hammer and M.J. Bennett in 1998, is an assessment tool addressing the fundamental attitude of people towards cultural differences. The theoretical basis of the IDI is the Developmental Model of Intercultural Sensibility (Milton J. Bennett, 1986, 1993). It postulates six developmental stages in the perception and approach to intercultural differences. These stages are influenced by experiences, and the contemplation of those experiences. The more complex the construed worldview in relation to cultural dissimilarities, the more sensitive the person is in perception of and approach to these differences.

intercultural development inventory (idi) آداة قياس التنمية البينثقافية

Explanation:
http://www.wataonline.net/site/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?t... is a good discussion on translating the term "intercultural" into Arabic. Since the IDI measures cultural comeptence, the development referes to culture, not the other way round (I hope I am clear, it sounds clumsy) - so على وزن التنمية الثقافية and that is why it is not بين الثقافات المختلفة but البينثقافية. The IDI itself is a tool, not a list, so the term بيان and قائمة do not apply - literal translations don't always work. Have a look here: http://www.mdbgroupinc.com/idi_background.htm, where it says clearly that it is "an assessment tool"

intercultural development inventory (idi) قائمة تقييم النمو الثقافي المتبادل

Explanation:
when the word "inter" comes as a prefix it means mutually "متبادل" and I prefer using the word "قائمة" instead of "وسيلة" because it's like a table which contains grades to assess people's attitude towards the differences between cultures
