The process of understanding and coming to terms with changes in one’s socio-cultural environment, by making adjustments to one’s cultural identity. Acculturation is also associated with intercultural sensitivity, which allows someone to function in a bi-cultural capacity by adopting values from a second culture, while retaining one’s own cultural identity.
