This thesis aims to explore the culture shock process of Taiwanese returnees. The researcher employed purposive sampling, focusing on three returnees who experienced culture shock upon returning to Taiwan, to investigate their subjective experiences. Qualitative research methods were used, with data collected through in-depth interviews and analyzed using grounded theory. The results revealed a four-stage culture shock process for Taiwanese returnees: shaping of life experience, experiencing culture shock, handling culture shock, and the adjustment phases. In the shaping of life experience phase, returnees' unique experiences were shaped by living abroad in diverse cultures. The culture shock phase encompassed various challenges faced in education, career, social interactions, and living environments. The handling culture shock phase involved developing unique coping methods and experiencing physiological and psychological responses to culture shock. In the adjustment phase, returnees gradually develop new insights, internal motivations for self-improvement, and a blended identity that embraces multiculturalism. Overall, this study shows the personal, social, and cultural challenges faced by returnees, and the emotional, behavioral, and cognitive changes that occur during the process. This thesis hopes to inform future multicultural professionals and communities, aiding returnees in adjusting to life back in Taiwan.

This textbook takes a Complex Systems Theory approach to examine individual differences between learners and the potential impact of these variables on the process of acquiring a second language. The authors argue that individual variables cannot provide the complete picture, and that they must instead be understood as part of an interconnected and dynamic system of different factors in order to be useful in a language learning context. Written in an accessible style and suitable for final-year undergraduate and Masters-level students, the book includes clear definitions of key terms, discussion questions for classroom use, practical exercises and activities, and examples of real empirical studies that students and teachers can replicate in their own contexts. This textbook will be of interest to students taking TESOL and SLA courses and modules, as well as those on broader Applied Linguistics programmes.

Human migration is a global phenomenon and is on the increase. It occurs as a result of 'push' factors (asylum, natural disaster), or as a result of 'pull' factors (seeking economic or educational improvement). Whatever the cause of the relocation, the outcome requires individuals to adjust to their new surroundings and cope with the stresses involved, and as a result, there is considerable potential for disruption to mental health. This volume explores all aspects of migration, on all scales, and its effect on mental health. It covers migration in the widest sense and does not limit itself to refugee studies. It covers issues specific to the elderly and the young, as well as providing practical tips for clinicians on how to improve their own cultural competence in the work setting. The book will be of interest to all mental health professionals and those involved in establishing health and social policy.

Books on intercultural communication are rarely written with an intercultural readership in mind. In contrast, this multinational team of authors has put together an introduction to communicating across cultures that uses examples and case studies from around the world. The book further covers essential new topics, including international conflict, social networking, migration, and the effects technology and mass media play in the globalization of communication. Written to be accessible for international students too, this text situates communication theory in a truly global perspective. Each chapter brings to life the links between theory and practice and between the global and the local, introducing key theories and their practical applications. Along the way, you will be supported with first-rate learning resources, including: • theory corners with concise, boxed-out digests of key theoretical concepts • case illustrations putting the main points of each chapter into context • learning objectives, discussion questions, key terms and further reading framing each chapter and stimulating further discussion • a companion website containing resources for instructors, including multiple choice questions, presentation slides, exercises and activities, and teaching notes. This book will not merely guide you to success in your studies, but will teach you to become a more critical consumer of information and understand the influence of your own culture on how you view yourself and others.
