Paper Summary:

This paper discusses the process by which international visitors adapt to a new host culture. The writer explains the four stages of the cultural adjustment process and examines ways that these changes can be made easier.

From the Paper:

"Many people perceive this process as "culture shock." Culture shock describes the more distinct reactions to the psychological disorientation most people experience when they move for an extended period of time into a culture that is different from their own (University of Iowa, 2003). In many ways, culture shock is the occupational hazard of overseas living through which one has to be willing to go in order to experience other countries and cultures in depth."
