Answer to Question 1

1
Explanation: 1. Assuming an Americanized name rather than being called by a given ethnic name is an example of acculturation, which includes assimilating characteristics of the dominant culture such as a name, rather than being identified as a member of a non-dominant culture.
2. Engaging in activities with the members of the family's preferred social group is a component of heritage consistency.
3. Speaking the family native language relates to heritage consistency.
4. Living away from the family of origin does not necessarily represent a change in culture.

Answer to Question 2

3
Explanation: 1. Acculturation is involuntary, where a non-dominant member of a culture adapts to the new culture in order to survive.
2. Ethnicity refers to belonging to a particular ethnic group of origin.
3. Socialization is the process of being raised in a culture and acquiring characteristics of that group. Education is a form of socialization.
4. Heritage consistency addresses the degree to which one's lifestyle reflects a respective tribal culture.
