Abstract

Cultural adaptation is the process and result of cultural exchange and interactions. The phase division, theoretical schools of thought, and developmental trends of culturally adaptive research are important scientific issues. Based on the perspective of philosophical schools, this article conducts a literature review to study the cultural adaptability and the differences of cross-cultural people. This paper concludes that the research paradigm of cultural adaptation can be summarized by logical positivism, humanism, and structuralism. The school of logical positivism focuses on quantitative analysis and model building of the causality of culturally adaptive change. Cultural adaptability related to the humanist school aims to describe micro-characteristics of the psychology and behavior of cross-cultural people. The structuralism school focuses on the surface structures, development processes, and deep structures of cultural adaptation. Overall, this research provides a valuable reference for understanding the changes, differences, mechanisms, and applications of cultural adaptation.
