Dispositional and psychosocial variables as longitudinal predictors of acculturative stress
Open accessAbstract
As societies become more multicultural, citizens need to develop self‐regulatory mechanisms in order to successfully cope with the increasing levels of psychosocial stress related to acculturation. In this study, a longitudinal theoretical model was tested in order to evaluate the role of implicit theories of cultural intelligence, causal attributions, perceived social support, and cultural identity as predictors of acculturative stress. The research was carried out in S pain across three consecutive years with a multicultural sample of 292 students (natives and immigrants). The results confirm the proposed theoretical model using multi‐group structural equation modelling to test the equivalence of the longitudinal causal structure in immigrants and natives. Moreover, mediation analyses confirmed the mediating effect of cultural identity between the implicit theories of cultural intelligence and acculturative stress, as well as the mediating effect of perceived social support between causal attributions and acculturative stress. The model indicates the relevance of promoting psychosocial interventions with native and immigrant adolescents in intercultural contexts. In those interventions, it will be relevant to promote incremental implicit theories of cultural intelligence and internal causal attributions, as well as to highlight a more intercultural identity and to encourage greater social support networks.

In a study with adolescents from twenty countries participating in exchanges, the more traditional family values were present, the lower the well-being of the youth.
“Em uma pesquisa realizada com adolescentes de vinte países diferentes que estavam participando de intercâmbios, observou-se que quanto mais presentes os valores familiares tradicionais associados, menor era o bem-estar dos jovens (Cuadrado & Tabernero, 2014).”

It is important to promote monitoring/intervention with young expatriates to work on socialization, intercultural differences, cultural identity, self-efficacy, and self-control in culturally diverse environments.
“Diante dessas afirmações, evidencia-se a importância de promover um acompanhamento junto a estes jovens para trabalhar questões como a socialização, diferenças intercultural, identidade cultural, auto eficácia e autocontrole em ambientes culturalmente diversos ao seu ambiente de origem (Cuadrado & Tabernero, 2014).”

The greater the identification with the origin culture, the greater the subject's risk of suffering stress, resisting adaptation and acceptance of the new cultural reality.
“Quanto maior a identificação com a cultura de origem, maior pode ser o risco do sujeito para sofrer estresse, resistindo de certa forma à adaptação e aceitação da nova realidade cultural (Cuadrado & Tabernero, 2014).”

Cultural identity can be a risk factor for anxiety, depression, and stress when the subject migrates to a culturally diverse new environment.
“Pesquisas mostram que a identidade cultural pode ser um fator de risco para ansiedade, depressão e estresse quando o sujeito migra para um novo ambiente culturalmente diverso (Cuadrado & Tabernero, 2014;Schwartz, Unger, Zamboanga & Szapocznik, 2010).”

Young expatriates are still undergoing identity construction within an intercultural context, which contributes to easy and fluid acquisition of new cultural practices, values, and identifications.
“Além disso, estes jovens expatriados ainda estão passando pelo processo de construção da identidade dentro de um contexto intercultural o que contribuiria para uma fácil e fluida aquisição de novas práticas culturais, valores e identificações (Cheung, Chudek & Heine, 2011;Schwartz, Unger, Zamboanga & Szapocznik, 2010;Cuadrado & Tabernero, 2014).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
