Perrucci, Robert; Hu, Hong
Research in Higher Education, v36 n4 p491-508 Aug 1995
A study of satisfaction among approximately 600 international graduate students at 1 university focused on academic program, academic appointment, and nonacademic social relationships. Analysis revealed academic satisfaction was most strongly related to contact with U.S. students, language skills, and perceived discrimination. Social satisfaction was linked with these factors and marital status. Gender, grades, aspirations, and financial situation were unrelated. (Author/MSE)
