ABSTRACT

This study investigates the relationships between acculturation strategies, cultural intelligence (CQ), and adaptation outcomes among migrants from North-east India residing in Gujarat. The research aims to understand how these variables correlate, contributing to the broader literature on within-nation migration and intercultural adjustment. A sample of 300 participants was surveyed to assess the interplay between acculturation strategies (integration, assimilation, separation, marginalization) and their adaptation outcomes, focusing on both psychological and sociocultural dimensions. The findings indicate significant positive and negative associations, highlighting the critical role of CQ in enhancing adaptation.
