摘要从人类学和移民研究中汲取灵感，我们对跨国运动员职业轨迹的研究增加了越来越多关于体育相关移民中文化转型的心理学作品。它是基于发送和接收的情况下，包括半结构化的采访20名现任和前任西非裔男子足球运动员谁已经转移到斯堪的纳维亚俱乐部的多站点实地考察。这些运动员在国外遇到了各种特殊的挑战，他们不断地从事跨界活动，以谈判和克服这些挑战。他们正在进行的跨文化活动引发了一场讨论，即跨国运动员在其职业生涯中的经历是否可以最好地概念化为文化适应和文化适应过程。这样做，我们进一步讨论的后果之间的分析区分“家文化”和“新文化”的文化转型模式所建议的。
Abstract Taking inspiration from anthropology and migration studies our study on transnational athletes’ career trajectories adds to a growing body of psychological works on cultural transitions in sports-related migration. It is based on multi-sited fieldwork in sending and receiving contexts including semi-structured interviews with 20 current and former male footballers of West African origin who have moved to Scandinavian clubs. Having met various and particular challenges abroad, these athletes have continuously engaged in border-crossing practices to negotiate and overcome these. Their ongoing transcultural activities open a discussion whether transnational athletes’ experiences over their careers can be best conceptualized as acculturation and cultural adaptation processes. Doing so, we further discuss the consequences of an analytical distinction between a ‘home culture’ and a ‘new culture’ as suggested by the cultural transition model.
