About Acculturation and Adaptation index Revisited
The construction and psychometric properties of the Acculturation Index have been described previously by Ward and Kennedy (1994). The instrument assesses two fundamental dimensions of acculturation: relationship to the culture of origin and relationship to the culture of contact. The Acculturation Index (see Appendix) contains 21 cognitive and behavioral items (e.g., language, food, recreational activities, in-group and out-group perceptions). Respondents are asked to consider two questions about their lifestyles in Nepal with reference to these items: “Are your experiences and behaviors similar to those of people from your country of origin (conationals)?” and “Are your experiences and behaviors similar to those of Nepalese (host nationals)?” Respondents rate the similarity for both host national and co-nationals on a 7-point scale whose endpoints are labelled not at all (1) and extremely (7). This approach results in two independent “similarity” scores for a range of behaviors and cognitions (range = 0-126). We have termed these similarity scores co-national identification and host national identification.
