ABSTRACT
This study was examined closely on intercultural communicative competence, self-esteem, and cultural competence of nursing students. The subjects consisted of 158 students. The data were collected at September 2016 and analyzed using descriptive statistics, Pearson correla-tion coefficients, and stepwise multiple regression. The mean scores of intercultural communicative competence, self-esteem, and cultural competence were above the average. Significant correlations were found between intercultural communicative competence and cultural competence, self-esteem and cultural competence. Cultural competence was a predictor of intercultural communicative competence and self-esteem. These findings indicate that perceived intercultural communicative competence and self-esteem may be necessary to improve cultural competence among nursing students.
