Biculturalism: Some Reflections and Speculations.
Paulston, Christina Bratt
TESOL Quarterly, v12 n4 p369-80 Dec 1978
This paper explores the process and characteristics of becoming bicultural. The basic argument is that becoming bicultural is an eclectic process, which results in an idiosyncratic mixture of the two cultures with one basic "cultural competence," but with two sets of "socio-cultural performance."
