Predicting Effects of Acculturation Strategies on Acculturative Stress

The objective of the present empirical piece of research work is to examine the predicting effects of acculturation strategies on acculturative stress. Following the incidental cum random sampling technique, 200 North Indian migrated students were drawn from the different college in Bangalore city of Karnataka, to serve as participants in the present research work. The correlational research design was employed. Hierarchical multiple regression models were used to examine the predicting effects of acculturation strategies on acculturative stress. The result of the study indicated that, separation and marginalization acculturation strategies were significant predictors of acculturative stress. It is concluded that there is sufficient empirical and statistical evidence of the prediction effects of acculturation strategies viz. separation and marginalization on acculturative stress.
