1Faculty of Medicine and Psychology, Sapienza University of Rome, 00185 Roma, Italy.
Abstract:
This paper explores the influence of personality and individual factors on the acculturation process, providing a comprehensive overview of key concepts and theoretical frameworks. It organizes these factors into distinct categories, including personality traits, emotional, motivational, and cognitive aspects, identity, and self-concept. By examining how each of these dimensions contributes to the way individuals navigate cultural adaptation, this paper sheds light on the complex and multifaceted nature of acculturation. The insights presented emphasize the importance of understanding individual differences in predicting acculturation outcomes and highlight the role of personal factors in shaping the adaptation process.
