Abstract

The present study developed a new instrument, the qualimetric model of cross-cultural communicative competence based on the model of the cross-cultural language personality. Based on a review of the literature devoted to the language personality’s communicative competence development a 35-item version of the cross-cultural communicative competence evaluation was composed and contained two groups: a group of communicative language competencies factors and a group of communicative language activities & strategies. To justify how the factors in the whole model of cross-cultural communicative competence are distributed, the factors assessment was calculated with the conformance index value. Finally, the students’ cross-cultural communicative competence development was assessed to demonstrate the performance of the proposed method. The results showed that the level of students’ crosscultural communicative competence was significantly correlated with students’ language 
proficiency. Implications and limitations of the study are discussed as well.
