The purpose of this study was to analyze the level of psychological well-being among Indonesian diaspora students in China and to identify the roles of betweenness, closeness, and strength among well-being dimensions through a network analysis approach. The study methodology employed a quantitative approach using a cross-sectional survey design. Data were collected through questionnaires measuring five dimensions of psychological well-being and analyzed using descriptive statistics and network analysis. The findings revealed that the positive psychological well-being of Indonesian diaspora students was categorized as very high, as indicated by strong learning enthusiasm and adaptability in cross-cultural environments. The dimensions of motivation and engagement occupied central positions as the main connectors within the well-being network, while satisfaction and happiness contributed to maintaining psychological well-being stability, whereas other dimensions demonstrated more limited or transitional contributions. The implications of this study highlight the importance of strengthening motivation, engagement, and social support in fostering sustainable well-being among diaspora students. Therefore, diaspora student communities and educational institutions abroad should develop programs that encourage active student engagement.
