Abstract
The roles of mattering, adaptation, social support and loneliness were examined among 186 international students in Canada amidst COVID-19. Mattering was positively associated with social support, and adaptation, life satisfaction and psychological well-being and negatively associated with loneliness. Social support, adaptation, and loneliness mediated effects of mattering and psychological well-being.
