Abstract

In the light of the interaction problems of host families and the lack of research about host families, this study aims to use an ecological systems theory framework to explore the opinions of what constitutes an ideal host family in order to better understand the student’s perception of an ideal host family. The study findings offer implications for the better interaction between students and host families in the future.
