Resumo
This study explores how advice from friends predicts Chinese international students' college adjustment. First-year international Chinese ( N = 95) undergraduates reported on their English language ability (ELA), advice seeking and evaluation with domestic and international friends, and psychosocial adjustment. Chinese students with lower self-reported ELA sought advice from their closest domestic friend less often, perceived advice from that friend as lower in quality, and were less psychosocially adjusted. Advice processes partially mediated the association between ELA and psychosocial adjustment.
