Updated research is required on the geographies of the cultural issues that shape international students’ experiences. The growing number of students traveling to different countries implies a need to cater to cultures and values from different parts of the world. Apart from cultural and geographical aspects, there is scarce knowledge about similarities between students’ experiences abroad that takes into account their countries of origin (and, to some extent, their cultures) within those mobility flows. Using a probabilistic topic model on 59,662 international student reports from 167 countries on their mobility experiences, we examine links between the students’ experiences and their countries of origin. The results show that the geographical features of the reports are connected not only to cultural issues, but also to other factors that might affect their international experience.

国际学生在高等教育中的地理和文化体验

需要对影响国际学生体验的文化问题的地理区域进行最新研究。越来越多的学生前往不同国家旅行意味着需要迎合来自世界不同地区的文化和价值观。除了文化和地理方面，关于学生在国外经历的相似性的知识很少，这些知识考虑到他们的原籍国（以及在某种程度上，他们的文化）在这些流动流动中。我们对来自 167 个国家/地区的 59,662 份国际学生的流动经历报告使用概率主题模型，研究了学生经历与其原籍国之间的联系。结果表明，报告的地理特征不仅与文化问题有关，
