The interactive acculturation model (IAM) seeks to integrate within a common theoretical framework the following components of immigrants and host community relations in multicultural settings:
acculturation orientations adopted by immigrant groups in the host community;
acculturation orientations adopted by the host community towards special groups of immigrants;
interpersonal and intergroup relational outcomes that are the product of combinations of immigrant and host community acculturation orientations.
The framework of these established among a structural political/governmental environment. Ultimately, the goal of the model is to present a non-determinist, more dynamic account of immigrant and host community acculturation in multicultural settings.[1]
Essentially the model takes both sides of immigration (host and immigrant) and compares the values and desire to hold on to historical and cultural ties of the immigrant population versus the desire or degree to which the host population is willing to accommodate the immigrant influx. Examples of questions posed to the host population include:
Do you find it acceptable that immigrants maintain their cultural heritage?
Do you accept that immigrants adopt the culture of your host community?
The model derives two important pieces of data:
the level to which the immigrant population is willing maintain its historical and cultural roots against;
its desire (or lack thereof) to integrate and adopt the history and cultural traits of the host society.
The model essentially categorizes the population, based on the responses, as being in favor of integration, assimilation, or separation. When cross compared with the level of accommodation the host society is willing to provide, the model predicts whether the immigrant population will become fully assimilated, marginalized, or even isolated from the host society.[2]
