Oct 26, 2021 · The much more limited acculturation research on majority groups has primarily considered majority-group members’ resistance to changes in their culture and their expectations and preferences concerning how people who self-identify as immigrants or minority-group members should acculturate (Bourhis et al., 1997; Zárate et al., 2012). Research rarely considers the acculturative changes ...

Sep 1, 2021 · Although initial research in this area focused on minority members’ own acculturation orientations and adaptation (e.g., Berry, 1997), there is now a growing interest on investigating the majority society’s preferences for how minority members acculturate into the majority society (e.g., Arends-Tóth & Van de Vijver, 2003; Hillekens, Baysu ...

May 13, 2022 · Meanwhile, we do not know much about majority-group members’ acculturation preferences regarding their own culture (Kunst et al., 2021)—that is, members of the culturally dominant group within a specific geographical region due to status, demographic strength, and/or institutional support (Berry et al., 1977; Brown & Zagefka, 2011; Giles et al., 1977).

Sep 16, 2024 · At first glance, the idea that majority-group members acculturate towards the culture of immigrants and minority groups may seem counterintuitive. After all, they belong to the dominant culture in society and experience less pressure and practical incentives to change their culture.
To date, we do not know the extent to which minority-group members expect majority-group members to adopt the culture of minority groups and/or to maintain their mainstream culture. Knowledge is also lacking about how these expectations relate to minority-group members’ own acculturation orientations and symbolic and realistic threat perceptions.
