Anxiety among Asian international college students in the US: a systematic literature review

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: The current systematic literature review explores the factors contributing to anxiety among Asian international college students in the United States. METHODS: A search of multiple electronic databases yielded seven relevant peer-reviewed articles published since 2018. RESULTS: Findings indicated that academic stressors, lack of social support, and cultural barriers significantly contributed to anxiety among Asian international students. Additionally, demographic factors such as gender, age, and English proficiency may also influence anxiety levels. DISCUSSION: Mindfulness-based interventions, peer support groups, and culturally sensitive counseling may reduce anxiety among Asian international students. Further research is needed to understand more thoroughly the complex interactions between these factors and anxiety in this population.
