We find that opposing effects of patience (positive) and…

In most theories regarding these transformations, the implicit assumption is that immigrants undergo a transition to the culture of the mainstream population according to a modernization perspective.

There is evidence that this shift is one experienced not just in inner-city schools most commonly associated with minority ethnic…
