Juridisch Humanisme en Costumiere Acculturatie. Inhouds- en vormbepalende factoren van de Antwerpse Consuetudines compilatae (1608) en het Gelderse Land- en Stadsrecht (1620) KU Leuven
With this dissertation, the author attempts to offer an insight into the internal development of the process of recording customs in the Habsburg Netherlands, which has long remained in the shadow of its external history. He discusses the factors likely to have determined both form and content of compilations of customary law as recorded at the beginning of the seventeenth century in the Habsburg Netherlands. Basing himself on such compilations ...
Minority acculturation and peer rejection: Costs of acculturation misfit with peer group norms KU Leuven
How do minority adolescents’ personal acculturation preferences and peer norms of acculturation affect their social inclusion in school? Turkish- and Moroccan-Belgian participants (N=681 in CILS Wave 1) rated their acculturation preferences for heritage culture maintenance, mainstream culture adoption, and their experiences of peer rejection as a key indicator of social exclusion. We aggregated peer acculturation norms of maintenance and ...
Acculturation is a two-way street: Majority-minority perspectives of outgroup acculturation preferences and the mediating role of multiculturalism and threat KU Leuven
A 2 x 2 experimental design investigated the effects of perceived outgroup acculturation preferences on intergroup outcomes for both the Hispanic-minority (N = 50) and European-American-majority (N = 163) in California, USA. Participants read fabricated interviews which manipulated outgroup acculturation preferences for contact (high vs. low) and culture maintenance (high vs. low). For majority participants: Hispanics’ desire for contact ...
Bringing together acculturation theory and intergroup contact theory: Predictors of Flemings' expectations of Turks' acculturation behavior KU Leuven

We studied two kinds of antecedents: majority members’ perceptions of Turkish minorities’ acculturation behavior and their experiences of intergroup contact. The possible mediating role of outgroup affect was also investigated. 247 Flemish high school students completed a survey. Data were analyzed using path analyses. Results ...
Multiple pathways of integration: Acculturative change and associations with school adjustment in immigrant-origin adolescents KU Leuven
Tracing developmental pathways of immigrant-origin adolescents, this 3-year longitudinal study (2012-2015) examined within-person changes in cultural orientations and their consequences for school adjustment. Multivariate latent growth mixture modeling confirmed multiple pathways of integration, revealing variable acculturative changes along dual trajectories of heritage and mainstream orientations among European-origin (N = 592, Mage = 14.45, ...
Contextualizing Immigrant and Refugee Resilience: Cultural and Acculturative Perspectives KU Leuven
In 2017, 260 million people have been living as foreign-born immigrants worldwide. Together with people who moved within their own nation, every seventh person changed the place of residence and therefore is a national or international migrant (United Nations, International Migration Report 2018). In the age of “super-diversity” (Titzmann & Jugert, 2019; Vertovec, 2007) characterized by highly diversified migration flows, receiving societies ...
