The third approach to cross-cultural studies of personality is the combined approach, which serves as a bridge between Western and indigenous psychology as a way of understanding both universal and cultural variations in personality (Cheung et al., 2011).

Reactive ethnicity refers to holding even more strongly onto one’s cultural heritage and resisting adoption of the receiving culture. In other words, from Berry’s (1980) perspective, discrimination encourages ethnic minority migrants and their descendants to remain separated from the mainstream receiving culture.

Immigrants often choose one of several acculturation strategies: (1) cultural maintenance (choosing to what extent cultural characteristics are important to maintain), (2) cultural participation (determining how they participate with members of the host culture, or remain among themselves), (3) integration (equivalent …

In Physics, Integration is very much needed. For example, to calculate the Centre of Mass, Centre of Gravity and Mass Moment of Inertia of a sports utility vehicle. To calculate the velocity and trajectory of an object, predict the position of planets, and understand electromagnetism.
