Article Abstract:
The Relative Acculturation Extended Model (RAEM) is used in a study on accultural strategies and attitudes of African immigrants in the south of Spain, Andalusia, to illustrate that the division of the attitude into different areas provides better information on the acculturation process undergone by immigrants. Results reveal that the general acculturation attitude of immigrants is one of integration with the host society, however, the strategies adopted and attitudes preferred differ based on the areas of acculturation considered.
