What is enculturation?

1.Within ones own culture (learning from parents, peers within one's own culture, adults and Institutions within one's own culture).

2.Other cultures other than yours (learn new cultures, while keeping own values - your heritage - e.g. Learning a new language).

3.When cultures or groups of people influence one another (blend in, become similar and loss own distinctiveness - e.g. Black Americans).

4.Adults and Institutions from other cultures.

Enculturation is the process through which individuals learn and adopt the beliefs, values, norms, and behaviors of their own culture. It involves being socialized within one's own cultural group by learning from parents, peers, adults, and institutions within that culture.

It also involves learning about and interacting with cultures that are different from one's own, while still maintaining one's own cultural identity and values. This can include learning new languages, customs, and traditions.

In some cases, enculturation can result in the blending of cultures, where different groups influence each other and become similar in beliefs and behaviors. This can lead to a loss of distinctiveness of the original cultures involved.

Enculturation can also involve interactions with adults and institutions from other cultures, leading to a greater understanding and appreciation of cultural diversity.
