Abstract
Abstract Debido al creciente intercambio de estudiantes extranjeros alrededor del globo, el tema de la adaptacion cultural ha cobrado importancia (e.g., Garcia Martinez y Saura Sanchez, 2008; Kagan y Cohen, 1990; McPherson y Szul; 2008; Nunez, 2009; Tompson y Tompson, 1996). Pero ?Como es que los alumnos de paises tan distintos en el aspecto cultural logran adaptarse a una cultura nueva como lo es la mexicana? El proposito de este estudio fue analizar las percepciones de estudiantes extranjeros sobre su proceso de adaptacion en una universidad en Mexico. A traves de un analisis cualitativo, por medio de entrevistas a 20 participantes (latinos, europeos, asiaticos, estadounidenses y canadienses), se encontro que los factores que permiten una adaptacion favorable a la cultura mexicana son: el idioma, tener familiares y amigos mexicanos; el caracter de la gente mexicana, tener amistad con gente del pais anfitrion y participar en actividades extracurriculares. Los factores que no permiten una optima adaptacion cultural son: carga de trabajo academico, anoranza y la inseguridad. Finalmente, los problemas de adaptacion se resuelven en dos categorias: desarrollando una sensibilidad cultural (i.e., aprender de la cultura e integrar los valores y creencias de otra cultura) y teniendo contactos nacionales (i.e., tener amigos mexicanos que ayuden a que la estadia sea mas placentera). Abstract Due to the increasing exchange of foreign students from around the globe, the issue of cultural adaptation has become important (eg, Sanchez Garcia Martinez and Saura, 2008, Kagan and Cohen, 1990, McPherson and Szul, 2008, Nunez, 2009; Tompson and Tompson , 1996). But how is that students from countries as diverse in the cultural aspect fail to adapt to a new culture as is the Mexican? The purpose of this study was to analyze students' perceptions of their adjustment process at a university in Northern Mexico. From a qualitative analysis from in-depth interviews of 20 participants (Latin Americans, European, Asian, American and Canadian), we found that the factors for favorable adaptation to the Mexican culture are: Knowing the language, having Mexican relatives and friends; the way Mexican people are (their nature), making friends with people of the host country, and participating in extracurricular activities. The factors that prevent an optimal cultural adaptation are: academic workload, longing and insecurity. Finally, adjustment problems are solved in two categories: developing a cultural sensitivity (i.e, learning the culture and integrate its values and beliefs) and having national contacts (i.e, have Mexican friends that help making the stay pleasant).

Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
