Assessment of acculturation attitudes usually has focused on the importance two dimensions: first, immigrants' maintenance cultural heritage and, second, adoption majority culture. Because is a reciprocal interaction, we extended bidimensional scale to four dimensions assess mutual acculturation. Given social context for and schools as crucial immigrant pupils' acculturation, extension was validated within school. We hypothesised that are held not only towards pupils but also native schools'...

Acculturation attitudes commonly focus on minority and majority toward acculturation. However, because acculturation is a mutual process, not only are members of or migrant groups expected to experience acculturation, but the also are. In this study, I assessed 375 students (Mage = 12.67 years, SD 0.69, range 11–15, 46% female) in Swiss secondary schools (a) migration background students’ heritage culture maintenance (b) dominant adoption, (c) acquisition cultural knowledge, (d) schools’...
