Acculturation Questionnaire for Children and Adolescents Test

ethnopsychologymigrantssociocultural adaptation

This brief self-report measure supports an initial appraisal of cultural adaptation in youth following migration or exposure to a new cultural context. The Acculturation Questionnaire for Children and Adolescents is designed to help clarify how comfortably a child or adolescent is adjusting and how cultural change may be affecting everyday attitudes and behaviors.

Developed by John W. Berry and Jean S. Phinney, the instrument consists of 8 items and typically requires about 2 minutes to complete. The Acculturation Questionnaire for Children and Adolescents can be used in school, clinical, or community settings to inform follow-up assessment and guide supportive interventions when acculturative stress or adjustment concerns are present.
