Acculturation
Testing Berry's Model of Acculturation (Schwartz and Zamboanga, 2008)
-
Method: Latent Class Analysis (statistical analysis) that creates categories without any pre-existing assumptions about which categories
Results: Mixed support for Berry's strategies- 6 categories not 4. Assimilation and integration could be divided further. Separation, assimilation and integration emerged but separation and assimilation mixed so they overlap.
Limitations: university population (socioeconomic backgrounds), Hispanic populations with limited English proficiency were not represented, focused on surface culture- language assimilation

Berry et al 2006
Aim: to investigate how well immigrant youth adapt to their new cultures and whether this is related to acculturation strategies and profiles
Results and Conclusion: The immigration profiles matched up with the acculturation strategies. Integration turned out to be the most successful acculturation strategy as it led to more positive psychological and sociocultural adaption. Separation also led to positive psychological adaption. This indicates that cultural maintenance is an important part of acculturation.
Procedure: Structured questionnaires on acculturation attitudes, cultural identity, psychological and sociocultural adaption
