Cultural psychology students enlarge their cultural consciousness, moral relativism, and meta-cognitive cultural wit, but students with lower course grades also enhanced their approval of stereotypes that were not supported by cultural psychology research. Effects for intercultural training and the communication of cultural differences studies are discussed.
