Using the BEVI to assess individual experience to enhance international programming.
From the abstract: "This case study (n=11) documents the implementation of intercultural learning activities throughout a semester long course and a 9-day trip to Vietnam. Researchers anticipated positive development in critical thinking, openness, and environmental concern measured by the Beliefs, Events, and Values Inventory. Overall the average group scores did not increase; however, in a more detailed analysis interesting patterns emerged within the data in regard to unintended learning outcomes, impact of individual differences in identity, and preparedness for learning."
