A Research On The Cultivation Of Mental Health Quality Of College Minority Students

Aimed to touch upon the cultivation of mental health quality of college ethnic minority students, this research applies CCSMHS mainly compiled by Richang Zhen to investigate 2007 college minority students selected randomly from 9 universities in Southwest China. The method employed is stratified-cluster sampling which mainly focuses on the different national cultural effects on the formation of these students' values and unique psychological states. Here follows the conclusions:(1) Scores of college minority students are evidently higher than the mean level of the whole country on branch measuring scales like somatization, anxiety, depression, inferiority, sexual abnormality, obsession, and psychosis tendency, and evidently lower only on crankiness and social attack with distinct specific features of each nationality. That is to say, college minority students are having a comparatively low mental health quality.(2) Scores of male college minority students are evidently higher than the female's on branch measuring scales like social attack and obsession, and evidently lower on anxiety and impulsion.(3) Those whose parents are just middle-school educated or totally illiterate have a lower mental health quality than those whose father and mother are at least high-school educated or get equivalent education like secondary education.(4) sophomores have lower quality than students from any other grade in college, and seniors get the highest evaluation;(5) Only on sexual abnormality, students majoring science and engineering gain evidently higher marks than those majoring in arts, no apparent differences on other measuring scales for these two types of students.(6) Students who are the only child of their family have much higher mental health quality than those who are not; The first female child of a family made up with children goes the lowest evaluation and correspondingly the last one gets the highest.(7) The poorer a student's family is, the lower he gets mental health quality, and vice versa.
