The study had descriptive and correlational research objectives and was designed as a cross-sectional survey research. FASE Stress Scale, Asian American Ethnic Identity Questionnaire, and Suinn-Lew Asian Self-Identity Acculturation Scale were the three self-report instruments employed in this study. Two-hundred and forty six Asian sojourners and immigrants composed the sample population from five Asian cultural groups: Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Vietnamese and Philippino. Pearson correlation and 2x2 two-way analysis of variance were performed on the data. Results indicate that acculturation behavior is the single best predictor of acculturative stress. There seems to be no significant correlation between one's world view orientation and acculturative stress. In addition, the findings indicate the need for future research to develop an instrument which can accurately measure and better account for the complicated and emic nature of acculturation and world view orientation.</p> 1989 English text The Ohio State University / OhioLINK http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1250275675 http://rave.ohiolink.edu/etdc/view?acc_num=osu1250275675 unrestricted This thesis or dissertation is protected by copyright: all rights reserved.
