摘要
International students have been found to underutilize counseling centers despite experiencing unique stressors such as homesickness and racism. In this study, the authors examined 183 international students' help-seeking intentions utilizing the Theory of Planned Behavior. Results revealed that help-seeking attitudes (beta = 0.29, p < .01) and subjective norms (beta = 0.18, p < .05) were statistically significant predictors of help-seeking intentions above and beyond the effects of demographic variables. Implications for counselors and future research are discussed.
