Racial aggression against Asians and the implementation of state-wide stay-at-home orders during the COVID-19 pandemic may have negatively impacted mental health in Asian international graduate students in the United States, yet these relationships are unknown. Therefore, this study was conducted to investigate these relationships. Data were collected from 177 participants from four universities. Methods: On-line survey was used to assess perceived racial discrimination related to the COVID-19, daily racial discrimination during the pandemic, home boundness and loneliness, and depression and anxiety. Daily racial discrimination was associated with an increased risk for depression. Home boundness was related to fewer depression symptoms ( = -0.728) and fewer anxiety symptoms ( = -0.558). Higher symptoms of loneliness ( = 0.377) were related to more depression symptoms. More loneliness ( = 0.257) was related to more anxiety symptoms. The findings can help university stakeholders to create a guideline for the development and implementation of resource programs for Asian international graduates.

Educational programs for health-care providers increasingly implement culturally sensitive care. Clear methods for educating students in cultural awareness are still lacking. Research indicates that simply increasing knowledge on ethnicity, culture, or migration does not improve culturally sensitive behavior and can foster stereotypes.
