This study explored how did the ethnic Chinese immigrant consumers shape their outdoor lifestyle through experiencing consumer acculturation. For immigrant consumers, along with the geographic movement, comes the problem of adapting to the consumer environment in a new country. Through the dynamic adaptation process, the values and consumer behavior of immigrant consumers evolve progressively and the skills and knowledge relevant to engagement in the consumption in a new culture are acquired. Consumer researchers have termed this adaptation process “consumer acculturation”. As the increasing importance of immigrant consumers in the market of immigrant society, to understand the acculturation experience is a key concern both for marketers and consumer researchers. Being sojourning in New Zealand, the researcher has the opportunity and privilege of personal contact with New Zealand culture and firsthand observation with immigrant consumers. The observed phenomenon that the change of outdoor lifestyle of the ethnic Chinese immigrant consumers, coming from countries where outdoor lifestyle is not typical, can be explained as the result of consumer acculturation. Consumer acculturation theory can facilitate the change of behavior of immigrant consumers. However, there is lack of literature addressing influence paths of Consumer Acculturation to outdoor lifestyle behavior. Hence, the motivations of the current are driven by research gap and observation. The purpose of this research is to investigate the influence paths of consumer acculturation through exploring the shaping process of ethnic Chinese immigrant consumers’ outdoor lifestyle. Complementary Methodologies were employed; qualitative method facilitated the exploring and depicting the shaping process of outdoor lifestyle; whereas, quantitative method facilitated the empirical study. Enriched qualitative data facilitated the delineation of shaping process of ethnic Chinese Consumer’s outdoor lifestyle. The process profiled the dynamic process and its interactive relation with consumer acculturation. Ten hypotheses (five influence paths) were proposed and an empirical model was constructed. 402 samples were collected from the four biggest cities of New Zealand covering both North Island and South Island. The ten hypotheses were all supported by the empirical data. Current study concluded five influence paths, which means the acculturation helps to bring about the outdoor lifestyle behavior by increasing activity consumption values of hedonic benefit, social benefit, and self-efficacy benefit, and increasing immigrant consumer’s perceived behavior control and his adventurousness. The findings of the current study contribute to fulfilling the theoretical gap of consumer acculturation in explaining the influence paths of outdoor lifestyle behaviors, and provide empirical verification of consumption value theory in the context of consumer acculturation. The enriched content of the shaping process and perceived consumption value of outdoor activity of ethnic Chinese immigrant consumers provide insightful understanding for marketing practitioners

In recent years, the rationale for many overseas Chinese youths to migrate back to Taiwan consists of a multitude of reasons, experiences and motives. As discussed in other literature, the decision to return is the sum of many considerations and multi-faceted assessment that come together to make a final choice. A study of the prior literature demonstrates many common motivations, including career choice, environmental preferences, interpersonal relationships, and personal aspirations. To the aspect of career choice, young returnees often make the decision in relation to their current stage in their life-span, which is more focused on career stability or the career-of-life searching. Therefore, they potentially consider turning back to Taiwan if what their field of study has little room for development and prospering in immigrate country while Taiwan could offer a greater space for development. To the aspect of interpersonal relationship, the individual could be more inclined to return to Taiwan if there exists certain relationship-based connections, such as family or friends being in Taiwan, or family needs and expectation from them. As to the motive of environmental preferences stimulates overseas Chinese youths to return is for those who like the abundant and diverse or some certain lifestyle in Taiwan, speak Chinese or enjoy various foods with reasonable price, for example. And to the reason of personal aspiration can explain more of those who left Taiwan with their older age might share stronger belonging to Taiwan, and those who made their life-goal to benifit Taiwan, or who wants to study in Taiwan or expand their life experience. These reasons impel the overseas Chinese youths to return. Additionally, they could be more inclined to return to Taiwan if they could benefit from having dual-language and multicultural background. This study is focused on a detailed analysis of a single case, and uses in-depth interviews, life stories and narrations depicts the miraculous change of heart for one to proactively decide to return to Taiwan. It will analyze different levels of understanding, thoughts and opinions throughout the individual's many stages in life, along with the impact of each on his decision making process. This research establishes a depiction of how this individual's decision making process and transition fits into the larger scope of other studies' observations, and points out the linkage between each consideration and its affect on the final decision. This study will show that every consideration is important; the process can be broken into turning points of capitulation, protest, compulsion, and enthusiasm, culminating in the dissipation of the individual's original reasons for resistance, and return to Taiwan. While the person's decision making process may not be the same as those of other overseas Chinese youths, the decision making process and its related motivations can be taken as a detailed example to further similar research.

Since Chinese teaching emerges and flourishes globally, Chinese teaching in each country has been positively promoted consciously. Aware of shortage of Chinese teaching research in New Zealand, the author aims to make a survey of the current Chinese teaching condition in Auckland region in New Zealand. Regarding the design of the research framework, with literature data and online resource collecting as the first priority, the author described the educational systems in New Zealand, such as “the National Curriculum Guideline” announced by the Ministry of Education, Te Kete Ipurangi (TKI)-- the online learning website of the Ministry of Education in New Zealand, New Zealand Qualifications authority (NZQA), and the ALLiS Programme targeting at learning the second Asian language. Then, focusing on collecting, seeking for, and organizing online data of schools at each level, the author designed the interview questionnaire through semi-structure interviews in interview survey method. Ultimately, the author went to Auckland region personally to interview the local experienced Chinese teachers for a month, and organizationally synthesized the interviewing results, expecting to further understand the Chinese teaching condition in Auckland region currently. The research subject in this paper are the mainstream schools in Auckland region in New Zealand, and the overseas Chinese schools and the private Chinese teaching units. During the author making interviews in Auckland, she visited a total of 10 schools, including one mainstream university, three mainstream high schools, two mainstream elementary schools, and four overseas Chinese schools. The interviewed units include University of Auckland, Takapuna Grammar School, Epsom Girls Grammar School, Elim Christian College, Kristin School, Willow Park School, Feng-xing Digital Learning Center, Hoy Light Chinese School, Chi Yuan Education Center, and Chinese Tutor Class. In addition, under the premise of school unit’s and teachers’ permission, the author observed the teacher’s teaching class process, while discussed on the Chinese teaching materials generally exerteds in Auckland region. Finally, suggestions involving teaching material usage by the local Chinese teachers are organized and proposed. According to the research results, the heterogeneity of Chinese teaching in Auckland region in New Zealand is high, and the curriculum is rich as well as diversified. Although schools at each level and the Chinese teachers comply with the standard of “the National Curriculum Guideline” announced by the Ministry of Education in New Zealand, both the Ministry of Education and the schools at each level allow the teachers to teach autonomously. Regardless of selecting Chinese teaching materials, Chinese curriculum design, or teaching methods, the teachers can fully utilize the personal teaching characteristics and professionalism. Currently, the difficulty of teaching Chinese in Auckland region mainly lies in a huge increase in Chinese immigrants that makes a changes in Chinese teaching ecology as well as the teaching environment. The New Zealand government and Chinese teachers in Auckland region have to adjust the individual teaching approaches and curriculum design in reaction to different student backgrounds and school systems, which is a big challenge for the teachers and the issue the New Zealand government must tackle in regard of the second language policy. Due to difficulties in collecting literature, a lot of data was the first-hand information sought for by the author personally, which characterizes this paper as a pioneering research. The author truly expects that this study can offer a systematic description of the current Chinese teaching condition in Auckland. Meanwhile, the author hopes that this study can further help those who intend to devote themselves to Chinese teaching in New Zealand subsequently by providing the reference as prior knowledge before teaching.

Full textThis study compared the characteristics, self-reported practices and experiential skills of mental health practitioners (MHPs) in New Zealand and Singapore with the aim of benefiting both nations in managing the mentally ill. A mixed-research design was used consisting of a mail questionnaire survey and a structured interview. For each country, mail questionnaires were sent to 300 MHPs, namely, counsellors, psychiatrists, psychologists, psychotherapists, and social workers, while structured interviews were held with 12 MHPs. Potential participants were drawn from available electronic or printed publications on counselling and psychotherapy services in both countries. Those drawn from individual listings of MHPs were systematically sampled, whereas those drawn from organisational listings of MHPs were sampled by way of estimation. Despite the relatively low response rates of 20% to 27% from the participants of the mail questionnaire, the major findings were supported and augmented by those from the structured interviews in the combined analysis of results. Results were categorised into personal, professional and practice characteristics of MHPs. Personal characteristics included demographic characteristics. Professional characteristics included training characteristics, primary job affiliation and use of Western therapy models and interventions. Practice characteristics were sub-divided into five categories: practice setting; diagnostic system and assessment procedures; client and caseload; gender/ethnic match; and experiential skills. Similarities in personal and demographic characteristics between MHPs of both New Zealand and Singapore were found with respect to gender, ethnicity, and language ability. Differences in these characteristics were found with respect to age range and religious affiliation. Similarities in professional characteristics between MHPs of both countries were found with respect to country of therapy training, qualification in therapy, number of years of supervised training received, and use of Western therapy models and interventions. Differences in these characteristics were found with respect to primary job affiliation, availability of clinical psychology programmes, years of experience in therapy, and registration of practice. Similarities in practice characteristics between MHPs of both countries were found with respect to relevance of therapy models, focus of practice, diagnostic system and use of assessment procedures, clients seen, clients' presenting problems, and gender/ethnic match. Differences in these characteristics were found with respect to preferences of therapy models, and average number of sessions per client. Similarities in experiential skills between MHPs of both countries were found with respect to handling of self-disclosure, religious or spiritual issues, and traditional healers. Implications for Chinese clients and cognitive behaviour therapy were discussed, as well as limitations of the study.
