ABSTRACT
Drawing on the socioecological framework, this study introduced a sociocontextual model of stigma by examining multiple levels of mental health stigma and their association with help-seeking attitudes among international students using structural equation modeling. The findings indicated that campus stigma and perceived public stigma were not directly associated with help-seeking attitudes but demonstrated significant indirect associations involving stigma internalization. These results contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of mental health stigma among international students and highlight the importance of considering multilevel sociocontextual links with help-seeking.
