Acculturation strategies derive from combining two cultural orientations

Evidence

According to Berry’s (1998, 2001) acculturation model, integrated individuals are those who not only want to maintain their identity with their home culture, but also want to take on some characteristics of the new culture. Assimilated individuals do not want to keep their identity from their home culture but would rather take on all of the characteristics of the new culture. Separated individuals want to maintain their identity with their home culture and separate themselves from the new culture. Marginalized individuals have neither the desire to maintain their old culture nor any desire to take on the characteristics of the new culture. — Roderick M. Kramer, Geoffrey J.
