Abstract

A substantial percentage of international students are placed on academic probation each year. This study explored the challenges and resilience characteristics of Chinese international students placed on academic probation in their first year of college. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with nine probationary Chinese international students, and the data were analyzed using a thematic analysis approach. The results indicated that challenges with daily routine, reduced adult supervision, inadequate academic preparation, and limited participation in the application process were the main factors that contributed to their academic probation. Proactivity, independence, and flexible thinking were important resilience characteristics that may have helped students cope positively with stresses relating to academic probation. Targeted institutional support could be strengthened. Implications, limitations, and suggestions for future research are also discussed.

中国留学一年级学生在实习中的挑战与韧性

每年有相当大比例的国际学生被安排进行学术试用。本研究探讨了中国留学生在大学一年级接受学业见习的挑战和应变能力特征。对9名中国留学生进行了半结构化访谈，并采用主题分析法对数据进行了分析。结果表明，日常生活的挑战、成人监督的减少、学术准备不足以及对申请过程的参与有限是导致他们学业缓刑的主要因素。主动性、独立性和灵活思维是重要的韧性特征，可能有助于学生积极应对与学业试用有关的压力。可以加强有针对性的机构支助。还讨论了对未来研究的启示、局限性和建议。
