International students and mental health
Open accessAbstract
This brief provides an overview of literature relating to the mental health of international students from the past two decades. Research has found that both the rate and severity of mental health concerns is higher for international students compared to domestic students. Despite this, rates of detection and intervention remain low. Effective support and treatment to adequately address the specific mental health needs of international students is currently hindered by a range of structural, social, and cultural factors.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
