In this study examining the influence of multicultural personality, assertiveness, social support, and academic self-efficacy on Asian international students’ (ISs) socio-cultural adjustment in the U.S., 330 Asian ISs completed a web-survey. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis revealed that both Multicultural Personality and Assertiveness were associated with Socio-cultural Adaptation, which was mediated by Academic Self-efficacy. Although Multicultural Personality was associated with Social Support, bootstrapping results indicated that there was no indirect effect from Social Support to Socio-cultural Adaptation, therefore mediation paths between Multicultural Personality to Social Support and Social Support to Socio-cultural Adaptation were not supported. Implications are discussed.
