“Causality crisis” in acculturation research a false alarm?: A commentary on Kunst (2021)
International Journal of Intercultural Relations. 2022. Vol. 86. No. 1. P. 158–162.
Grigoryev D., Berry J. W.
The invited IAIR Award Paper by Kunst (2021) published in IJIR asserts that there is a “causality crisis” in acculturation research and critically discusses the current meta-analytical evidence supporting the integration hypothesis. In this commentary, we question this claim in light of our understanding of the acculturation process and its constituent phenomena. Our proposal is to consider acculturation patterns as behavioral syndromes, in which many phenomena are inter-related and which change over the course of acculturation. We also question the claim in Kunst’s paper about meta-analytical evidence, and end with some proposals for future research on acculturation.

The integration hypothesis is the proposal that individuals who engage in both their heritage culture and in the larger society (by using the integration strategy) have better psychological adaptation than those using other strategies (by engaging with only one or neither cultural framework). This hypothesis has received substantial support over the years, but it has ...

Living together in culturally plural societies poses numerous challenges for members of ethnocultural groups and for the larger society. An important goal of these societies is to achieve positive intercultural relations among all its peoples. Successful management of these relations depends on many factors including a research-based understanding of the historical, political, economic, religious and ...

A revised version of the Multicultural Ideology Scale (rMCI) is currently being developed to measure endorsement of multiculturalism in different cultural contexts. This study, which is part of a wider cross-cultural research project, presents the first assessment of the rMCI scale in the German language. The measure aims to cover several attitudinal dimensions of multiculturalism, ...

This special issue was inspired by Grigoryev, Fiske and Batkhina’s work (2019) on ethnic stereotypes and Berry’s approach to the psychology of intercultural relations (e.g., Berry, 1998, 2005; Berry et al., in press). Since individual behaviors are shaped in particular cultural contexts, we interested in what happens when individuals who have developed in different cultural ...

As worldwide migration continues to grow, valid and reliable instruments are needed to assess the psychological processes that influence the successful management of intercultural relations in different sociopolitical contexts. In this study, we test whether the original Multicultural Ideology Scale (MCI) required a revision to remain ‘fit for purpose’ in the current culturally plural context ...

The Integration Hypothesis states that acculturating migrants who adopt the integration strategy (i.e., being doubly engaged, in both their heritage culture and in the larger national society) will have better psychological and sociocultural adaptation than those who adopt any other strategy (Assimilation, Separation, or Marginalization). This hypothesis was supported in the original evaluation of the ...

There is a lack of systematic acculturation research on the motivations underpinning the behavior of migrants, which could explain how they acculturate and adapt to their new country of residence. This paper applies the Schwartz Theory of Basic Human Values to explain the link between values and acculturation strategies among Arab immigrant and refugee groups ...

Background. Many culturally-plural societies like Canada or Russia seek ways to manage their cultural diversity in order to promote harmony among coexisting groups. The social sciences have long viewed intergroup contact as a beneficial intervention to achieve such harmony.
Objective. This paper proposes an adaptationist framework within which to explain how and why intergroup contact contributes ...

Статья представляет собой обзор ранних и недавних теоретических и эмпирических работ по экокультурной психологии. Используя свой экокультурный подход, я рассматриваю (1) происхождение сходств и различий в поведении человека в разных культурах и (2) взаимосвязь между культурой и поведением. Мой экокультурный подход постулирует, что: (1) базовые психологические процессы являются универсальными для человека как вида; (2) поведение ...

The study extends the approach of the Stereotype Content Model to ethnic stereotype content beyond intergroup relations within societies by exploring the North-South hypothesis for competence and warmth. This paper claims that the “desperate” (resource-poor and unpredictable) of lower-latitude climate regions and “hopeful” (resource-sufficient and stable) ecology higher-latitude climate regions translate into typical aggregate attributes ...

We integrated models of discrimination of immigrants by combining established approaches to prejudice and discrimination towards immigrants (proximate explanations) using assumptions of Evolutionary-Coalitional Theory (ultimate explanations). Based on this perspective, right-wing authoritarianism (RWA), social dominance orientation (SDO), and multicultural ideology (MCI) were considered as sociofunctional motives for attitudes towards immigrants. We examined relationships between individual ...

Current predictive models of collective action have devoted little attention to personal values, such as morals or ideology. The present research addresses this issue by incorporating a new axiological path in a novel predictive model of collective action, named AICAM. The axiological path is formed by two constructs: ideology and moral obligation. The model has ...

People across the world and throughout history have gone to great lengths to enhance their physical appearance. Evolutionary psychologists and ethologists have largely attempted to explain this phenomenon via mating preferences and strategies. Here, we test one of the most popular evolutionary hypotheses for beauty-enhancing behaviors, drawn from mating market and parasite stress perspectives, in ...

Статья продолжает текущую дискуссию среди специалистов, подробно рассматривая проблемную непоследовательность в концептуализации и операционализации отношения к иммигрантам в межстрановых сравнительных исследованиях. Показаны истоки обозначенных проблем, которые прежде всего связаны с теоретическим тупиком, а именно замкнутостью и тиражированием традиции теории конкурентной угрозы и излишней опорой на литературу (особенно американскую) по расовой предубеждённости (отношение к иммигрантам и отношение к афроамериканскому населению США это ...

The creation of a social climate where all ethnic groups can harmoniously coexist is a central challenge for many countries today. Should we emphasize similarities and common ground or, conversely, recognize that there are important differences between groups? The current study examined relations between diversity ideologies (assimilation, colorblindness, multiculturalism, polyculturalism) and generalized and specific intergroup ...

Одним из центральных вопросов текущей повестки для поликультурных обществ является проблема — как мы должны жить вместе. Этническое большинство, как правило, имеет статус культурно доминирующей группы и задаёт характер межкультурных отношений в стране.
