Abstract

The purpose of this study is to analyze the effect of acculturative stress on social competence and to verify the moderating effect of cultural & leisure activities on the effect of acculturative stress on social competence. For this purpose, the first data from the second period of the Youth Policy Institute’s MAPS (Multicultural Adolescents Panel Study) was used, and 1,834 adolescents with migration background were analyzed. The main results of this study are as follows. First, acculturative stress was found to have a negative effect on the social competence of adolescents with migration background. Second, cultural leisure activities were found to have a moderating effect on the relationship between acculturative stress and social competence of adolescents with migration background. In other words, cultural & leisure activities were found to buffer the negative effects of cultural stress on social competence. Based on the results of this study, this study suggests a policy and practical plan to activate cultural & leisure activities that reduce cultural stress and improve social competence of adolescents with migration background.
