Abstract
The current study investigated the effect of region of origin on mental health concerns of 38 Latin/South American and 29 Middle East/Asian international college students. A 2 x 8 mixed-design ANOVA revealed that Middle East/Asian students scored significantly higher than Latin/South American students on depression, hostility, and social anxiety subscales.
