Abstract
In this survey, we discussed about a psychological effect of cross-cultural experiences during a 5 weeks summer language training seminor for college students in the U.S.A. (N=26) or U.K. (N=31). We investigated about 1) social skill, 2) image of both countries' and Japanese people, 3) English language ability and 4) knowledge and interest about the countries. They observed more skills related to initiate a contact, and less skills related to assert and joke. The results reflected a difficult skills for Japanese students. Language ability and other individual factors related to some skills positvely. American or English people's image positively changed after the tour. Image of Japanese people change better or worse. Some skills' performance affected to image change.
