چکیده
Research on the determinants of expatriate stress, adjustment, and performance have been evaluated extensively, however, a comprehensive research model is yet to be developed. This study integrates the antecedents and mediators of expatriate adjustments and performance. Ten research hypotheses were developed and then tested using a meta-analysis with a total of previous 341 studies during 1988-2013 were included. The results can provide an important reference for human resource managers and academic scholars.
