Koo, Katie K.; Nyunt, Gudrun
Journal of College Student Development, v63 n4 p414-431 Jul-Aug 2022
Drawing on interviews with seven participants, this qualitative study presents unique experiences related to participants' mental well-being as Asian international students pursuing doctoral degrees while raising children. Their experiences include struggles with depression and mood swings, ongoing battles to manage both academic progress and mothering, constant conflict with their spouses, feelings of guilt, thoughts of dropping out, and concerns about their children. Implications for student affairs practice are discussed.
