— RESEARCH

Did You Know? 

Our research shows that international school students face higher rates of emotional abuse, emotional neglect, and sexual abuse than individuals in single-country studies. The rate of depression/mental illness among adults in their households is more than double that seen elsewhere. 75% of international school TCKs were impacted by at least one potentially traumatic event.

Pay-wall Free Research

Our research into the international childhood experiences are freely available, including our series of white papers based on an original survey of 1,904 Third Culture Kids.
