Abstract

Adopting a social psychological approach, across three studies (N = 927) in two western immigrant-receiving societies (UK and Canada), we examined the role of honour in acculturation variables (i.e., immigrants' heritage and mainstream cultural orientation and well-being), controlling for some of the commonly studied predictors of immigrant adaptation. We assessed honour as concern (Studies 1 and 2) and as a desired attribute for men and women (Study 3) and studied well-being in terms of acculturative stress (Study 1) and subjective evaluation of one's life (Studies 1 and 3). We examined our questions among groups of immigrants originating from honour (Studies 1 and 2) and dignity cultural groups (Study 1) and from first- and second-generation immigrants (Study 3). Overall, despite some significant associations at the bivariate level between honour and acculturation outcomes, findings provided mixed support for the claim that honour (measured as concerns and cultural codes) plays a significant role in immigrant acculturation above and beyond commonly studied predictors of immigrant adaptation.

荣誉、文化适应和福祉：来自英国和加拿大的证据

我们采用社会心理学方法，通过在两个西方移民接收社会（英国和加拿大）进行的三项研究（N = 927），考察了荣誉在文化适应变量（即移民的遗产和主流文化取向以及幸福感）中的作用，并控制了一些通常研究的移民适应预测因素。我们将荣誉作为关注点（研究 1 和 2）以及男性和女性的理想属性（研究 3）进行评估，并从文化适应压力（研究 1）和对个人生活的主观评价（研究 1 和 3）的角度对幸福感进行研究。我们对来自荣誉（研究 1 和 2）和尊严文化群体（研究 1）以及第一代和第二代移民（研究 3）的移民群体进行了调查。总体而言，尽管荣誉感与文化适应结果之间在二元水平上存在一些重要关联，但研究结果并不支持以下说法，即荣誉感（以关注点和文化准则衡量）在移民文化适应过程中发挥了重要作用，其作用超出了通常研究的移民适应预测因素。

期刊介绍： The British Journal of Social Psychology publishes work from scholars based in all parts of the world, and manuscripts that present data on a wide range of populations inside and outside the UK. It publishes original papers in all areas of social psychology including: • social cognition • attitudes • group processes • social influence • intergroup relations • self and identity • nonverbal communication • social psychological aspects of personality, affect and emotion • language and discourse Submissions addressing these topics from a variety of approaches and methods, both quantitative and qualitative are welcomed. We publish papers of the following kinds: • empirical papers that address theoretical issues; • theoretical papers, including analyses of existing social psychological theories and presentations of theoretical innovations, extensions, or integrations; • review papers that provide an evaluation of work within a given area of social psychology and that present proposals for further research in that area; • methodological papers concerning issues that are particularly relevant to a wide range of social psychologists; • an invited agenda article as the first article in the first part of every volume. The editorial team aims to handle papers as efficiently as possible. In 2016, papers were triaged within less than a week, and the average turnaround time from receipt of the manuscript to first decision sent back to the authors was 47 days.
