旅居及其引发的问题,以往主要属于社会学、心理学的研究范畴,但随着研究的不断深入,其展现出强烈的属于文化地理学研究范畴的特征与要素。运用结构方程模型、相关分析等方法,对美国来华旅居者的跨文化适应影响因素展开实证研究。研究结果表明:旅居时间与东道国文化认同之间的正相关性最大,旅居国数与一般生活满意度的正相关性最弱;提出的10个假设中,除了旅居国家数量对文化取向的变化没有显著影响关系外,其余9个假设都得到了证实。

Time of living with a host of cultural identity is the largest correlation, the weakest positive correlation with the number of the country in general life satisfaction ; the 10 hypothesis, only the number of sojour has no significant impact to cultural orientation, the other 9 hypotheses are confirmed.
