Abstract
Objective: The objective of this study is to explore the intergenerational transmission of cultural values within bicultural families, focusing on how these families preserve their cultural heritage, adapt to their host society, and navigate the associated challenges. Methods: This qualitative research employed semi-structured interviews with 21 participants from diverse bicultural backgrounds. Participants were selected using purposive sampling to ensure a variety of cultural perspectives. Data collection continued until theoretical saturation was reached. The interviews were transcribed and analyzed using NVivo software, following a thematic approach to identify patterns and themes related to cultural value transmission. Results: The analysis revealed three main themes: preservation of cultural practices, adaptation and integration, and challenges and negotiations. Cultural preservation was achieved through traditional ceremonies, language use, cuisine, arts and crafts, and dress. Adaptation involved blending cultures, educational influences, social interactions, and media use. Challenges included generational conflicts, identity issues, discrimination, acculturation stress, balancing preservation with change, and economic factors. These findings align with existing literature on biculturalism and cultural transmission. Conclusion: The study highlights the complex dynamics of cultural value transmission in bicultural families, emphasizing the importance of supportive societal structures and policies. The findings suggest that family therapists, educators, and policymakers should consider these dynamics to effectively support bicultural families in maintaining their cultural heritage while adapting to their host society. Future research should expand on these findings by exploring additional variables and employing longitudinal designs.

Full frame distilled prediction
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
