“…Counseling psychologists have long embraced aspects of the contextual perspective, particularly in describing how bicultural individuals adapt their behavior to fit different ethnic cultures (e.g., LaFromboise, Coleman, & Gerton, 1993) and in recognizing that ecological contexts (S. C. Wang, Plano Clark, & Scheel, 2016) and day-to-day interpersonal interactions influence people of color's lives (Neville & Mobley, 2001). Nonetheless, as discussed previously, counseling psychology research on ethnic culture tends to reflect the individual differences paradigm (e.g., use of trait-like Likert-type measures of ethnic culture), which does not adequately address the contextual nature of ethnic culture.…”

In this article, we argue that counseling psychology research on ethnic culture can be enhanced by drawing upon advancements in conceptual and methodological approaches from other fields. Accordingly, we present the dynamic paradigm of culture to provide counseling psychologists with a useful conceptualization of ethnic culture that serves as the impetus for developing novel research agendas. Grounded in interdisciplinary scholarship from social psychology, developmental psychology, political science, and sociology, this paradigm's core concept is ethnic culture's malleable nature; that is, ethnic culture varies across social contexts, across time, and in its meaning across individuals. These three dimensions of ethnic culture are elaborated within three perspectives: (a) the contextual perspective focuses on the situational and domain-specific nature of cultural influences, (b) the temporal perspective characterizes ethnic culture and individuals' cultural orientation as continually evolving through time, and (c) the constructionist perspective emphasizes the fragmented, subjective, antiessentialist, and performative nature of ethnic culture.

This article reports a multiple case study to explore the lived academic acculturation experiences of four Chinese international students with limited oral English capacity and how they describe the relationship between low oral English proficiency and academic acculturation. Self-Determination Theory was utilized as the theoretical framework to inform data collection and analysis. Findings indicated all four Chinese students experienced significant psychological stress during their academic acculturation as a direct result of their limited spoken English capacity, which negatively impacted their sense of competence, autonomy and particularly relatedness. Emotional pain, involuntary isolation, helplessness, and regret emerged as the salient themes from the cross-case analysis. Implications for various stakeholders are discussed.
