Dear Asian International Student! 

• Have you ever wondered how much stress, social support, and attitude about performance affect your daily mood during your course of study in the United States?
• How have your personality played out in your adjustment in the United States?
• Would you be willing to tell me your thoughts about these questions?

The Division of Counseling Psychology at the University at Albany conducts a study that explores Asian international students' adjustment process and mental health. This project has been approved by the University at Albany Institutional Review Board (IRB# 11-117). I would like to invite you to participate in a confidential survey.The only requirements for participation are that you are an Asian international student, not from an English speaking country, and you are at least 18 years old.
 
By sharing your experiences, you will be contributing valuable information that will lead to a better understanding of Asian international students' experiences in the United States!!
 
Participation in this study is voluntary and completely anonymous, and should take between 25 and 30 minutes to complete. At the end of the study, you will be given a chance to enter a drawing to win an iPad3!
 
If you would like to participate in the study, please click on the link https://www.psychdata.com/s.asp?SID=142410 and start the survey.
 
If you would like more information, please contact me at jk179943@albany.edu or/and Dr. Alex Pieterse at apieterse@albany.edu. If you know other Asian international students who may be interested in participating, please feel free to forward this email and share this information.


Thank you for your time and attention.
 
Respectfully,
Jungeun
