Abstract
Acculturation, as we have seen, is a multidimensional process, impacting Asian American individuals, their families, and their communities. Researchers continue to develop methods to better study acculturation in Asian Americans, including developing refined ways of measurement, refining outcomes, and investigating implications for Asian American health. In addition, newer concepts such as enculturation and the parent–child acculturation gap, as well as new interventions, enable researchers to develop a more nuanced view of how acculturation affects Asian American immigrants and their families.
