Nowadays, labour migration is an inevitable trend all over the world. For Ho Chi Minh City, the migrant workforce is an important driver to help solve its shortage of human resources and enhance its economic growth. This research adapted the measurement of sociocultural adaptation in the Vietnamese context to gain a more thorough understanding of how young intellectuals adapt themselves to a new life in Ho Chi Minh City. This paper used partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-Sem) procedure to explore five components of the sociocultural adaptation construct of young intellectuals and confirm the causal relationship between their adaptation and satisfaction. Then, some recommendations were also made to help increase young intellectuals’ ability in sociocultural adaptation.
