Rajul came to America from India three years ago because her husband was offered a job in rural Idaho. One year after they arrived, Rajul's husband died in an accident, leaving her penniless. She can't speak English well and therefore can't interact with others in the community; consequently, she spends much of her time alone. There are no Indians in the area, and she hasn't enough money to return to India or move to a city. According to the box "Culture and Human Behavior: The Stress of Adapting to a New Culture," Rajul is an example of which pattern of acculturation?
