A group of sixty Taiwanese students who were preparing themselves to go abroad for further studies and a group of sixty Taiwanese students who had finished their studies and returned home-country were received in-depth interviews and the Twenty-Sentence-Test in the present Study.
No significant differences were revealed in the Twenty-Sentence-Test between the two groups. The ways they decribed themselves mostly were classified into personal identity and social identity categories.
Impressive cross-cultural experiences were identified by students going abroad. They also viewed themselves changed and became more self-assertive and confident, was more open-minded, established new life attitudes, and were more accepting of others. The psychological readjustment was reported after students going back to home-country. |
