TL;DR: Van de Vijver and Leung as discussed by the authors discussed the design of acculturation studies and procedures to assess acculturability in cross-cultural psychology, and pointed out that a careful choice of methodological aspects of a study, such as study and instrument design, can go a long way to enhancing the quality of the acculture studies, and that quality of inferences based on the studies can be bolstered by using adequate, up-to-date methods.

TL;DR: A systematic review of publically available acculturation measures is presented in this article, based on three criteria: scale descriptors (name of the scale, authors, year, target group, age group, subscales, and number of items), psychometric properties (reliabilities) and conceptual and theoretical structure (acculturation conditions, orientation, attitudes, behaviors, conceptual model and life domains).

TL;DR: This article evaluated the measurement invariance of the Brief Multidimensional Students' Life Satisfaction Scales (BMSLSS) across cultural contexts and found insufficient evidence for scalar invariance in both the adolescents' and the emerging adults' samples.
