Bennett (1993) authored the “developmental model of intercultural sensitivity,” a seminal work on intercultural development. At the highest levels of development, Bennett theorizes that individuals have the capacity to shift cognitively and behaviorally to another culture's frames of reference, what Hammer (2008) refers to as “intercultural competence.” This concept of intercultural competence has received considerable attention in the literature, valuable works being those by Bennett (2015), Deardorff (2009), Moodian (2008), and Savicki (2008).
