Resumo: This article focused on studying the impact of multicultural personality on tolerance towards diversity among a sample of 245 Portuguese university students. With the use of correlation analysis, the findings revealed that all multicultural personality dimensions (cultural empathy, open-mindedness, emotional stability, social initiation, and flexibility) were highly associated with tolerance of diversity, demonstrating close relationship between multicultural personality and tolerance to representatives of different cultural background. At the same time, only open-mindedness was investigated to be positive predictor of tolerance in intercultural context. Practical implications of the research are also discussed.

El análisis de correlación permitió observar la relación entre las diversas dimensiones de la personalidad multicultural (la empatía cultural, la apertura mental, iniciación social y flexibilidad), de acuerdo con la construcción y el instrumento de medición. Se observo que existe una fuerte asociación entre la personalidad multicultural y la tolerancia para los miembros de las diferentes comunidades culturales. Simultáneamente, el factor de la “apertura mental” resultó ser un predictor positivo de la tolerancia en contextos interculturales. Además, se discuten las implicaciones prácticas de estos resultados.O presente artigo examina a relação entre a personalidade multicultural e a tolerância à diversidade, junto de um grupo de 245 alunos universitários portugueses. As análises de correlação permitiram observar a relação entre as várias dimensões da personalidade multicultural (empatia cultural, abertura de espírito, iniciação social e flexibilidade) conforme definição do constructo e do instrumento de medida e a existência de uma forte associação entre a personalidade multicultural e a tolerância a membros de diferentes comunidades culturais. Simultaneamente, o fator ‘abertura de espírito’ revelou-se como um preditor positivo de tolerância em contextos interculturais. São ainda discutidas no estudo implicações práticas dos resultados encontrados.Editora Mackenzie2016-10-07info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttp://editorarevistas.mackenzie.br/index.php/ptp/article/view/855110.15348/1980-6906/psicologia.v18n2p57-74The Journal Of Psychology: Theory and Practice ; Vol. 18 No. 2 (2016); 57-74Revista Psicología: Teoría y Práctica; Vol. 18 Núm. 2 (2016); 57-74Revista Psicologia: Teoria e Prática; v. 18 n. 2 (2016); 57-741980-69061516-3687reponame:Psicologia (Universidade Presbiteriana Mackenzie.
