Abstract

Abstract:

Considering the continuous increase of international students, the main goal of this study was to examine how international students’ proactive behaviors, particularly information­seeking behaviors, would impact key emotional outcomes including communication satisfaction with instructors and school–life satisfaction. For this investigation, we developed and tested a systematic model composed of those key factors. Results from structural equation modeling (SEM) supported most of the proposed hypotheses, It was particularly notable that the inquiry of information as a proactive form of communication was positively related to international students’ communication satisfaction with instructors, which ultimately predicts school satisfaction.
