Abstract
This paper is a synthesis of the author’s doctoral work on the impact of culture of origin on the three facets of expatriates' adjustment (work, interaction and general) and their antecedents (Waxin, 2000, 2003; Waxin Chandon, 2003, Waxin et Panaccio, 2005) The research model integrates organizational, individual and contextual variables and introduces culture of origin as a direct and a moderator variable. We Used self-administered questionnaire data from French, German, Korean and Scandinavian expatriated managers in India, and multiple regressions with moderator variable. The results establish that culture of origin has a direct effect on the three facets of expatriate adjustment and a moderator effect on their antecedents.
