The statement that is true of reentry adaptation is:
B. One of the challenges of reentry adaptation is that people do not expect to have difficulties.
Reentry adaptation, also known as reverse culture shock, refers to the challenges individuals may face when returning to their home culture after an extended period in another culture. People often underestimate the potential difficulties they may encounter upon returning home, as they might assume that reintegration will be seamless since they are familiar with their own culture. However, the process can still be challenging due to changes in the individual and their home culture during their time abroad.
