Structural assimilation refers to the integration of individuals or groups into the social structures of the dominant society, such as schools and workplaces. It often comes before intermarriage and close friendships, which are more characteristic of cultural assimilation. Biological assimilation is not a term commonly used in the assimilation literature, and psychological assimilation refers to changes in individuals' attitudes and beliefs, rather than their social integration.
