 | This is the sandbox page where you will draft your initial Wikipedia contribution.
If you're starting a new article, you can develop it here until it's ready to go live. If you're working on improvements to an existing article, copy only one section at a time of the article to this sandbox to work on, and be sure to use an edit summary linking to the article you copied from. Do not copy over the entire article. You can find additional instructions here. Remember to save your work regularly using the "Publish page" button. (It just means 'save'; it will still be in the sandbox.) You can add bold formatting to your additions to differentiate them from existing content. |
Article Draft
Lead
Intercultural communication focuses on the recognition and respect of those with cultural differences. The goal is mutual adaptation between two or more distinct cultures which leads to biculturalism/multiculturalism rather than complete assimilation. It promotes the development if cultural sensitivity and allows for empathic understand across different cultures. [1]
Theories
Cultural Fusion Theory:
Cultural Fusion theory explains how immigrants can acculturate into the dominate culture they move to. They maintain important aspects of their culture while adopting aspects of the dominant culture. This creates a intercultural identity within an individual, their native identity as well as their new host culture identity.[2]
Intercultural Adaptation:
Cultural adaptation in the process in which individuals are able to maintain stability and reestablish with their environment while in unfamiliar cultural environments.[3] Intercultural adaptation is a new two process, this is between the host culture as well as the individuals outside/home culture.[4] This is based on whether the host culture is willing to adapt, adopt cultural sensitivity, and/or adopt some aspects of the incoming individuals culture. Intercultural adaptation is a two-way process.
Acculturation
Acculturation can be defined at the process of an individual or individuals exchange or adopt certain culture values and practices that the dominate culture of their location posses.[5] Acculturation differs from assimilation because the people who are adopting new culture habits are still processing some of their original own culture habits. Young Yun Kim has identified three personality traits that could affect someone's cultural adaptation. These personality traits include openness, strength, and positive.[3] With these personality traits, individuals will be more successful in acculturating than individuals who do not possess these traits. Kim proposes an alternative to acculturation is complete assimilation.[2]
