Abstract Purpose: The purpose of the present study was to compare the effectiveness of mind-body exercise (ME) and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) on addiction level and psychological well-being among college students with problematic smartphone use (PSU). Methods: A 12-week randomized controlled study was carried out at a university in central China. A total of 95 PSU college students who met the inclusion criteria were randomly assigned to a ME group (ME, n = 31), CBT group (CBT, n = 30), or control group (CG, n = 34). Both ME intervention and CBT, twice per week for 90 min per session, lasting… More >

Abstract In today’s modern society, the physical fitness of college students is gradually declining. In this paper, a prediction model for college students’ physical fitness is established, in which support vector regression (SVR) and k-means clustering are combined together for the prediction of college students’ fitness. Firstly, the physical measurement data of college students are classified according to gender and class characteristics. Then, the k-means clustering method is used to classify the physical measurement data of college students. Next, the physical characteristics of college students are extracted by SVR to establish the prediction model of physical indicators, and the model for… More >

Abstract This research aims to an electronic assessment (e-assessment) of students’ replies in response to the standard answer of teacher’s question to automate the assessment by WordNet semantic similarity. For this purpose, a new methodology for Semantic Similarity through WordNet Semantic Similarity Techniques (SS-WSST) has been proposed to calculate semantic similarity among teacher’ query and student’s reply. In the pilot study-1 42 words’ pairs extracted from 8 students’ replies, which marked by semantic similarity measures and compared with manually assigned teacher’s marks. The teacher is provided with 4 bins of the mark while our designed methodology provided an exact measure of… More >

Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate the stress and coping strategy of Chinese International Students (CISs) during the epidemic, and to explore the relationship between identification with Chinese cultural beliefs and coping strategies, positive experience, negative emotion and need for psychological support. Two hundred and thirty CISs participated in the study by filling out a series of questionnaires that we designed. The series of questionnaires contained six scales: Pandemic Related Stress (PRS), Identification with Chinese Cultural Beliefs (ICCB), Stress Coping Strategy (SCS), Positive Experience (PE) and Negative Emotion (NE) and Need for Psychological Support (NPS).

Abstract Few studies have comprehensively explored the mechanism of the association between dispositional mindfulness and the process of internalization and externalization. Given that dispositional mindfulness can enhance the level of self-acceptance, the present study investigated the role of self-compassion in the effect of dispositional mindfulness on anxiety and aggressiveness among college students with left-behind experience (LBE). A total of 385 Chinese college students with LBE reported their level of dispositional mindfulness, anxiety symptoms, aggressiveness, and self-compassion. Dispositional mindfulness was negatively associated with anxiety and aggressiveness after controlling for gender, age, and whether they are the only child in family. Additionally, self-compassion… More >

Abstract Based on basic psychological needs theory of self-determination theory, this study investigates the interaction effect of proactive personality and career exploration on well-being for graduating students during school-to-work transition. Using a survey sample of 216 graduating students in China, we found that: 1) Proactive personality had a positive relationship with well-being. 2) Career decision-making self-efficacy mediated the relationship between proactive personality and well-being. 3) Career exploration negatively moderated the relationship between proactive personality and career decision-making selfefficacy. The relationship between proactive personality and career decisionmaking self-efficacy was stronger when career exploration was lower. 4) Career exploration also negatively moderated the… More >
