The network values include three factors and the network values questionnaire has good reliability and validity;2. The university students'values exist diverse phenomena, but the traditional values still take dominant status.3. The university students'value diversity has significantly difference in the gender, whether only child, grade variables, but urban or rural effect only in individual dimensionality of the traditional values and the network values has statistical significant.4. Mental health has significant positive correlation with the traditional values and the modern values, while significant negative correlation with the network values. Different cultural values influence the mental health.5. The discrepancy of conflict between the traditional and modern values markedly related to individual dimensionality of the mental health. The conflict between the traditional and network values influence the mental health, meanwhile, the conflict between the modern and network values influence the mental health6.
