| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research conducts continuous and multiple, quantitative and qualitative surveys for Japanese international students to clarify the process of adaptation / maladaptation to different cultures occurring within the one-year study abroad period. Japanese university students living in the seven different countries (eleven different regions) participated in the surveys.
The effect of the students’ personal characteristics and the social characteristics of the host cultures on the cultural adaptation was examined. This research is conducted using triangulation (mixed research) by combining analysis using text-mining techniques and analysis of quantitative data using questionnaires. Through this research, the advantages and disadvantages using new data collection methods and triangulation (mixed research) are clarified.
