IDI reports are visually oriented with extensive use of graphics. They present a deep analysis
of how an individual or a group tends to think and feel
about diversity and cultural difference in only a few pages.
The IDI reports include an explanation of the Intercultural Development Continuum (IDC). With IDI version 3, individual and group reports are customized to the Organization or Education application. Examples are included based upon the individual or group Developmental Orientation and trailing and leading developmental issues. The wording of the examples is customized for each of the Organization and Education reports. This further enhances IDI's relevance to the individual or group.
A sample report is available to view. We recommend reading the background information on this page before
opening the report. If you are not already familiar
with the Intercultural Development Continuum
(IDC) stages we also suggest reading our summary
of the IDC.
The sample IDI report is for an individual who perceives that they have a fairly deep multicultural or ethnorelative experience and understanding of cultural
difference. From an actual developmental perspective,
the person still tends to:
- Observe cultural difference
mostly in terms of visible differences (e.g. dress, food, traditions, holidays, cultural institutions).
- Not see the deeper
differences based in differing core beliefs and values (e.g. high-context versus low-context communication style or relative importance of individual versus group or of task completion versus harmonious relationships).
- Focus mostly on peoples' commonality.
The sample
report illustrates the type of information presented.
Each person's IDI report will be unique. The relationship
between the various data shown in the report varies with
the person's developmental orientation. This is why IDI reports
must be interpreted by a certified IDI administrator
who is trained to interpret the details of
the report.
