Attitudinal Assimilation

Attitudinal assimilation refers to the process by which individuals from different cultural backgrounds adopt the beliefs, values, and social norms of the dominant culture. This can occur gradually over time as immigrants or minority groups integrate into a society, leading to changes in their perspectives on issues like family, education, and work. While they may still maintain some aspects of their original culture, attitudinal assimilation often results in a closer alignment with the values of the dominant culture, potentially affecting their identity and social interactions.
