Stress, health and coping among international students at the University of Malta

Abstract

This study explores the perceived health and wellbeing of international students at the University of Malta. More specifically it examines the personal and academic concerns and challenges of international students, their perceived stress, health and coping, and whether these vary by gender, language and country of origin, and how they compare with the health of Maltese university students (as reported in Cefai & Camilleri, 2009).
