Because human beings have the capacity to abstract and be self-conscious, this learning can occur at both a behavioral and an abstract internal level. Closely linked to acculturation is adaptation, which is used in this article to refer to individual psychological well-being and how individuals manage socioculturally. 3, 267-285 (2006).

[..] Although some of the minimally endorsed internal causes of culture shock deserve such a rating (for example, the outdated and unsubstantiated notion that culture shock is due to emotional instability), other low rated causes warrant greater attention from potential sojourners, including those involving stress management, social support, identity confusion, and prejudice.
