Your proposal is interesting but I would not be willing to supervise it without some changes. Would you be willing to study acculturation of international students using social psychology theories of acculturation or the ABC model of cross-cultural interaction rather than stereotypes? In my opinion, this would give you a very suitable theoretical basis, a good understanding of the needs of international students and some very useful information for educators. These theories are described in some of the chapters available in the e-book called Online Readings in Psychology and Culture provided by the International Association for Cross-Cultural Psychology. Here is the link to the e-book http://scholarworks.gvsu.edu/orpc/contents.html

There are several chapters in the section called Sub-unit 8.1 Acculturation and Adapting to other Cultures.  I especially recommend that you read the chapter by Yuko Nippoda regarding Japanese students acculturation to the UK education system. It appears to describe some of the issues you discuss in your proposal. You will find a brief description of the ABC model of cross-cultural interaction in Stephen Bochner’s chapter. Also, you will find some guidance about theories and different types of questionnaires in the chapter about Assessment of Acculturation))

Please, if you need more information don’t hesitate to contact me.

Thanks
