Acculturation is not the abandonment of one’s individual culture fully, but instead, it refers to adopting aspects of a different culture into the individual’s personal identity. The levels of acculturation for Hispanic consumers is often broken down into four categories, and each category of consumer has a slightly unique behavior. By Camille Ashe - Florida State University
