“…In 1970, Berry first distinguished various modes of acculturation and proposed a bidimensional model of acculturation, which has dominated the acculturation studies until recently. Thereafter, several other scholars developed multidimensional models (Gracia & Lega, 1979;Padilla, 1980;Ryder, Alden, & Paulhus, 2000;Sanchez & Fernandez, 1993;Szapocznik, Kurtines, & Fernandez, 1980;Zak, 1973).…”

Chinese students are the biggest ethnic group of international students in the United States. This study aims to develop a reliable and valid scale to accurately measure their acculturative stress. A 72-item pool was sent online to Chinese students and a five-factor scale of 32 items was generated by exploratory factor analysis. The five factors included language insufficiency, social isolation, perceived discrimination, academic pressure, and guilt toward family. The Acculturative Stress Scale for Chinese Students demonstrated high reliability and initial validity by predicting depression and life satisfaction. It was the first Chinese scale of acculturative stress developed and validated among a Chinese student sample in the United States. In the future, the scale can be used as a diagnostic tool by mental health professionals and a self-assessment tool by Chinese students.

“…Szapocznik and his colleagues proposed that, to survive in a new culture, individuals should learn the necessary behaviors before acquiring a new value system Szapocznik, Kurtines, & Fernandez, 1980). In support, a study on familialism revealed that Latino participants were less likely to acculturate in attitudinal familialism (e.g., feelings of loyalty, solidarity, and reciprocity) than in behavioral familialism (e.g., visiting patterns; Sabogal, Marin, Otero-Sabogal, VanOss Marin, & PerezStable, 1987).…”

Abstract:The authors conducted a 22-year (1988-2009) content analysis of quantitative empirical research that included acculturation and/or enculturation as a study variable(s). A total of 138 studies in 134 articles were systematically evaluated from 5 major American Psychological Association and American Counseling Association journals in counseling and counseling psychology, including Journal of Counseling Psychology, The Counseling Psychologist, Journal of Counseling and Development, Journal of NOT THE PUBLISHED VERSION; this is the author's final, peer-reviewed manuscript. The published version may be accessed by following the link in the citation at the bottom of the page. Psychology, Vol. 58, No. 1 (January 2011): pg. 83-96. DOI.

Journal of Counseling 2Multicultural Counseling and Development, and Cultural Diversity and Ethnic Minority Psychology. To guide the analysis, the authors conceptualized acculturation/enculturation as a "bilinear" (i.e., developing cultural orientations to both majority and ethnic cultures) and "multidimensional" (i.e., across multiple areas such as behaviors, values, identity, and knowledge) cultural socialization process that occurs in interaction with "social contexts" (e.g., home, school, work, West Coast, Midwest). Findings include the patterns and trends of acculturation/enculturation research in (a) conceptualization and use of acculturation/enculturation variable(s), (b) research designs (e.g., sample characteristics, instruments, data collection, and analysis methods), (c) content areas, and (d) changes in total publications and trends over time. Additionally, meta-analyses were conducted on the relationship of acculturation/enculturation and a few key variables of mental health, adjustment, and well-being. Major findings and directions for future research are discussed.Since the 1980s, interests in acculturation research have increased in the counseling and counseling psychology field, reflecting the emergence of multicultural movement in the field and the influx of immigrants to the United States after the enactment of the Immigration Reform Act in 1965. Starting in the 1980s, Berry and his colleagues developed a landmark acculturation theory that many counseling and counseling psychology researchers have used as a framework to conceptualize and study acculturation experiences (see Berry, 1980Berry, , 1994Berry, , 1995Berry, , 1997 Berry & Sam, 1996). For example, the terminology used in Berry's typology of acculturation strategies (i.e., assimilation, separation, integration, and marginalization) has become a common language in the acculturation literature (for a critical review of the typology, see Rudmin, 2003;Schwartz, Unger,...

“…The definition of acculturation used in this study is directly related to the specific instrument used to measure it when the data was collected, namely the Bicultural Involvement Questionnaire [BIQ] (Szapocznik, Kurtines, & Fernandez, 1980) involves several dimensions, and even in the best of circumstances can result in various degrees of stress. Acculturative stress or acculturative strain and not acculturation per se, are the variables believed by some researchers to affect substance abuse (Recio Adrados, 1993;Barnes, in Cabrera Strait, 1999;Gil & Vega, 1995).…”

Hispanic Adolescents With Severe Substance Abuse Issues: Parental Involvement, Acculturation-Related Factors and Attachment

The sample for this study consisted of 94 adolescent-mother pairs. The adolescent sample was 65% male, and 35% female, with a mean age of 15 years. More than half of the adolescents were born in the United States (60%) and had resided in the U.S. for an average of 12 years; 80% of the caregivers (primarily mothers) were foreign-born and lived in the U.S. for an average of 21 years.Correlation and hierarchical regression were used to answer the research questions. The findings indicate that the hypothesized model and corresponding anticipated effect of the relationship between parental school and peer involvement on vii adolescents' frequency of alcohol, marijuana and cocaine use was not supported by the data. Parental "acculturation-related" variables did not explain any of the variance in adolescent substance use frequency in this sample. Mediation and moderation models were not supported either. However, some interesting relationships were found:
