who are seeking better opportunities for higher education. This has currently contributed to an influx
of Russian students to Taiwan. However, studying in a country which presents different cultural
patterns brings many educational, social and linguistic challenges for Russian students. This study aims
to investigate Russian students’ language socialization experiences and their acculturation attitudes,
and the correlation between the language socialization and acculturation attitudes. A questionnaire was
distributed to 61 respondent. The mean scores of frequency of using Mandarin language, their
acculturation attitudes, and the correlation between language socialization and acculturation attitudes
was analyzed with the help of SPSS software. Participants have better Chinese listening abilities
following by speaking skills. The usage of Chinese language is found to be positively correlated with
Assimilation attitude. Although some factors affect the acculturation attitude in various situations, the
result indicated the strong preference for Integration mode of acculturation among participants.
