  ABSTRACT: This study examines the impact of sociocultural acculturation on the mental health of postgraduate students from Chinese mainland in Hong Kong SAR. Utilizing the GHQ-28 and the Acculturative Hassles Scale for Chinese Students (AHSCS), this research identifies the correlation between psychological well-being and sociocultural adaptation. Based on 245 valid responses from a questionnaire survey conducted in October 2024, the findings reveal a significant positive correlation between sociocultural adaptation and mental health. Recommendations are provided for Hong Kong SAR universities to enhance support systems aiding students’ acculturative challenges from Chinese mainland.
