Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

When analyzing stages of acculturation or cross-cultural adaptation, we look at how individuals experience transitions.
Option a: frustration. This stage would involve rising irritation or obstacles as cultural differences create tension, but it does not inherently describe developing a positive view of both cultures or forming a bicultural identity.
Option b: adjustment. While adjustment implies adapting to a new environment, it is a broader term that can occur before or after. It does not specifically capture the emergence of a bicultural identity or the positive appraisal of both cultures.
Option c: Honeymoon. The Honeymoon phase is typically the initial excitement and fascination with the new culture, often accompanied by idealization, not yet a balanced or positive evaluation of both home and host cultures.
Option d: adaptation. In the adaptation stage, individuals increasingly integrate aspects of both cultures, develop a bicultural identity, and view home and host cultures more positively. This reflects a mature balance and cross-cultural competence, aligning with the description given in the question.
