“…O retorno foi percebido como um processo permeado por angústias, preocupações e aflições, como se observa na literatura (Kostohryz, et al, 2014;Szkudlarek, 2010;Brown, 2009), o que afeta o bem-estar psicológico, o ajustamento social e a identidade cultural de indivíduos na volta dos processos de mobilidade. Tais evidências indicam que essa transição merece uma maior atenção.…”

RESUMOO presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar experiências interculturais de alunos e professores universitários que realizaram programas de mobilidade acadêmica internacional, focalizando os desafios vivenciados, os aspectos facilitadores e os ganhos alcançados. Foram conduzidas 30 entrevistas e o material obtido foi analisado qualitativamente com o auxílio do software Ethnograph. Resultados apontam que os maiores desafios concernem ao processo de adaptação sociocultural, sendo uma das principais dificuldades a barreira do idioma. Entre os elementos facilitadores destacam-se a relação com outros intercambistas e o apoio dos professores. A experiência de mobilidade revela-se como favorecedora da construção de um importante capital simbólico, contribuindo para o desenvolvimento de competências pessoais, interculturais, profissionais e acadêmicas. Destaca-se o papel da universidade nesse processo por meio de ações de apoio e orientação aos envolvidos.PALAVRAS-CHAVE internacionalização da educação superior; mobilidade acadêmica internacional; experiência intercultural. 774Revista Brasileira de Educação v. 22 n. 70 jul.-set. 2017

“…20 Reverse culture shock is similar to culture shock, but readaptation and readjustment is to one's home culture after traveling or living abroad. 21,22 Feelings of excitement about being back home are mixed with bewilderment and detachment from what was previously familiar. A comprehensive review of reentry literature included studies involving corporate repatriates, missionaries, Peace Corps volunteers, and students 22 ; however, studies involving physicians in general, and residents in particular, were noticeably missing from this published review.…”

A comprehensive review of reentry literature included studies involving corporate repatriates, missionaries, Peace Corps volunteers, and students 22 ; however, studies involving physicians in general, and residents in particular, were noticeably missing from this published review. Our own extensive search confirmed a dearth in the literature regarding reentry of either physicians or residents.…”

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Although nonphysician reentry transitions have been characterized in literature, little is known about the reentry physicians in general, or residents in particular. We conducted a qualitative study to explore pediatric residents' reentry, using reverse culture shock as a conceptual framework.METHODS: Eighteen pediatric residents who completed global health experiences in Africa (9 categorical residents with 1-month elective, 9 global child health residents with 12-month training) participated in interviews that included a card-sort to solicit emotional responses consistent with the conceptual framework. Data in the form of interview transcripts were coded and analyzed according to principles of grounded theory.RESULTS: All pediatric residents, despite variable time abroad, reported a range of emotional responses on reentry to residency. Global child health residents felt disconnection and frustration more intensely than categorical residents, whereas categorical residents felt invigoration more intensely than global child health residents. Although residents met with program leadership after their return, no resident described these meetings as a formal debriefing, and few described a deliberate strategy for processing emotions on reentry.CONCLUSIONS: Consistent with reverse culture shock, pediatric residents felt a range of emotions as they move toward a steady state of acculturating back into their residency program. Residency programs might consider creating safety nets to help cultivate support for residents when they reenter training. WHAT'S KNOWN ON THIS SUBJECT:Although nonphysician reentry transitions have been characterized in the literature, little is known about the reentry of residents after either shortterm (1-month elective) or long-term (12-month training) global health experiences abroad. WHAT THIS STUDY ADDS:Reverse culture shock may be a useful conceptual framework for understanding the range of emotions felt by pediatric residents when they reenter residency after global health experiences, particularly if these experiences were long term.
