Frank Baum writing as Edith Van Dyne . The novel depicts a story of racial tension on the California ranch owned by the progressive minded Arthur Weldon and Louise Merrick Weldon, who have entrusted their baby, Jane, nicknamed Toodlums, to a Mexican people Mexican governess named Inez. Louise s uncle, John Merrick , is not pleased with her choice and brings Mildred Travers, a white nurse from New York to serve as governess. Out of appreciation to Uncle John, the Weldons accept her as nominal head governess with Inez as an assistant, finding her of great value. Inez does not see it that way and becomes very possessive, as well as protective, of baby Jane. The ranch was built by a Spanish lord and contains secret passages within some of the walls. Inez and some other Mexicans insist that the house is haunted, but the Weldons are convinced that the sounds are only of rats. Mildred, in fact, has a connection to the house, as her father was a friend of the former owner, who was delighted to show her the entrances to these passages that no one else has seen.

  1. Cross-cultural capital

    Wikify date April 2010 citations date March 2011 In management and organizational studies disciplines, cross cultural capital CCC is the aggregate set of knowledge, skills, abilities and psychological dispositions that gives individuals competitive advantage in interacting, working, and managing in culturally diverse environments. It is considered a facet of human capital . Cross cultural capital is conceived as a broad construct and it is composed of both dispositional or, more trait like and experience based elements more statelike , including personality dispositions e.g., openness to experience , values and beliefs e.g.,pro diversity beliefs , cognitive style cognitive flexibility and acquired specific skills e.g., mastery of several languages as well as of relevant experiences e.g., traveling, living and working in different countries growing up in a multicultural environment . Some scholars include cultural intelligence CQ as one of the state like components of cross cultural capital. This corresponds to Ang and Van Dyne s 2008 nomological network of cultural intelligence model, where cultural intelligence is conceptualized as a more of state like construct that mediates distal factors, which are typified as trait like e.g., personality traits and intermediate constructs such as communication apprehension and anxiety, which, in turn, are postulated to affect a host of individual and interpersonal outcomes that can be broadly classified into performance and cultural adaptation.
