520 $a Folk customs, and in particular the festivals and celebrations, of the members of the Chinese Association of Newfoundland and Labrador are described and analyzed to determine what effect folklore and folklife have on the acculturation process and vice versa.
520 $a The methodology involved participant observation in organized celebrations of the community and the attendance at more informal settings such as Mandarin classes in the Chinese Language School, and forty-one interviews of the first generation. The research results are analyzed in the context of the folklore of ethnicity and ethnic folklore.
520 $a The results support the assertion that folk customs and acculturation do impact upon each other. This is visible in the retention of non-verbal elements such as food practices, rather than the retention of the Chinese language. A significant group through which acculturation occurs is the children. Children act as a catalyst for both maintaining Chinese traditional observances and adopting Newfoundland festivals. Other significant factors influencing acculturation include migration patterns, physical environment, technological changes, and the traditions and folk customs of the host society.
520 $a This research basically supports earlier research findings on the maintenance of immigrant folklore as compared with the transition to ethnic folklore amongst minorities in North America. Despite a diversity of mother country origins, the immigrant generation of Chinese Newfoundlanders were in the "transitional" stage.
