Vietnamese-Canadian University Students in Regina: Socio-Cultural and Educational Adaptation‪.‬

ABSTRACT/RESUME A questionnaire survey of the socio-cultural and educational adaptation experiences of Vietnamese-Canadian university students was conducted in a Canadian prairie city. Students' language use, acculturation, academic performance, and school experience were explored. Results indicated that these Vietnamese students were adapting reasonably well to Canadian society. Multiple ordinary least-squares regression analysis demonstrated that the following were significantly related to students' overall adaptation experience: perceived friendliness of Canadians, satisfaction with academic program, academic performance, language proficiency, ethnic self-identity, and sex.
