What characterizes current acculturation theories?
What will be an ideal response?
Current acculturation processes including hybrid, alternation, or bicultural models.
People who immigrate need to redefine their cultural identities, but outcomes vary
according to multiple factors, including pressures to not acculturate that may come
from members of one’s own family, level of education, and exposure to discrimination
in the host society. Also, immigrants can acculturate in one dimension (speak English)
but not another (retain patriarchal gender role socialization). Unlike prior generations,
biculturalism is currently considered a positive outcome for the first and second
generation.
