“…Previous studies have reported much higher stress levels among international students than domestic students. Many predictors of acculturative stress have been identified, such as English language proficiency, age of arrival, generational status, length of stay, educational level, socio-economic status (SES), marital status, ethnic identity, and involuntary vs. voluntary immigration status (Constantine, Okazaki, & Utsey, 2004;Kuo & Roysircar, 2004).
