Discuss the concept of acculturation

What will be an ideal response?


The term acculturation has been used to refer to both changes at the group level and changes in the psychology of the individual (Berry, 1997). At the group level, changes may occur in the social structure of the group or in the group’s economic and value base. At the individual level, changes take place in identity, values, and behavior (Sam, 2006).
