Even though college students may be faced with developmental life tasks that might lead them to cognitive and emotional growth, little is known about how college students' life experiences are related to their cultural values. Understanding college students' life across culture requires both exploratory and confirmatory approaches to examine (1) how the college students' life experiences differ, and (2) what are the sociocultural factors that might be related to the culturally configured life experiences. Participants in the study included 324 college students from Korea and 287 students from the U.S. The present study investigated how Korean and the U.S. college students' life experiences are patterned differently using exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses, multiple regression analyses, and group-level comparisons. The implications and the directions for future research are discussed.
