Facilitators might consider where their participants fall on the Intercultural Development Continuum (IDC™) and how that might affect their responses. For example, people in minimization or denial more often assume universality when it is not there, and people in polarization tend to attribute motivations at the personal level without understanding the cultural dimension.
