Individual personality, previous cross - cultural experiences, and language proficiency all affect a person's ability to interact socially in the new culture. The basic cause of culture shock is the abrupt loss of all that is familiar, leading to a sense of isolation. When an individual enters a strange culture, all or most of these familiar cues are re moved. He or she is like a fish out of water.
