Sojourner expectations: Are they met and does it matter if they’re not
This research examines the association between cross-cultural travelers’ well-being and the discrepancy between expected and experienced adaptation, in a longitudinal study of intercultural exchange students (N = 1762; Mage = 17 years; 70 % female).

Whereas the accuracy hypothesis suggests that unmet expectations lead to poorer outcomes, the directional hypothesis proposes that the outcome of un…
The highs and lows of a cultural transition: A longitudinal analysis of sojourner stress and adaptation across 50 countries
The impact of living abroad is a topic that has intrigued researchers for almost a century, if not longer.

Choose your (international) contacts wisely: A multilevel analysis on the impact of intergroup contact while living abroad

The translated scales were administered …
