Objective: To test the validity and reliability of the Chinese version of the Peer Mental Health Stig- matization Scale-Revised (PMHSS-R) in middle school students. Methods: A total of 1 099 middle school students were selected and randomly divided into Sample 1 (n=549) and Sample 2 (n=550) for exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis, respectively. The total sample (n=1099) was used to measure internal consisten- cy, and 87 of them were retested two weeks later. A total of 259 middle school students (Sample 3) was selected for the criterion validity test with the Depression Stigma Scale (DSS) and the Attitudes toward Seeking Professional Psychological Help Scale-Short Form (ATSPPH-SF). Results: Exploratory factor analysis identified 2 common fac- tors, namely stigma awareness and stigma agreement, with a cumulative variance contribution rate of 66. 86%. The confirmatory factor analysis showed that the two-factor structure model fit was adequate (x²/df = 3. 70, CFI = 0. 97, TLI = 0. 96, SRMR = 0.03, RMSEA = 0.07). The PMHSS-R Chinese version scores were positively correlated with the DDS scores (ICC = 0. 58, P<0.01) and negatively correlated with the ATSPPH-SF scores (ICC = 0. 40, P <0.01). The Cronbach a coefficients of the total scores and the two-factor scores were 0. 90, 0.92, 0. 85, respectively. The test-retest reliability coefficients (ICC) were 0.84, 0.76, 0. 78, respectively. Conclusion: The Chinese version of the Peer Mental Health Stigmatization Scale-Revised (PMHSS-R) demonstrates good validity and reliability in assessing mental health stigma among middle school students.

Emotions play an important role in fostering positive parenting and healthy child development. This qualitative study explored the affective experiences of racially diverse US fathers with low income across the prenatal, postnatal, and early childhood periods. Semi‐structured interviews were conducted with 24 fathers. Interview questions asked about fathers' early parenting experiences that elicit parenting emotions of different valence. Results from thematic analysis demonstrated activation of multiple emotions depending on different proximal and distal experiences. Specific to proximal experiences, fathers reported feeling both excited and anxious about pregnancy and joyful and disappointed at childbirth. Related to distal experiences, fathers reported feeling encouraged by their social support networks that further aid their parenting, but feeling marginalized given systematic barriers (e.g., societal bias, high incarceration rates of Black fathers). Most importantly, fathers' parenting emotions, especially negative ones, led to them resolving to stay involved in their children's lives, gaining a sense of responsibility, and changing behaviors to do right by their children. Fathers resorted to various coping strategies to regulate their negative emotions. Overall, fathers with low income are emotionally resilient. Infant and early childhood health professionals should support fathers' mental health to promote father‐child engagement and thus, ultimately, young children's mental health and wellbeing.

Objective To understand the current situation of the mental health of medical students in a university, to explore in depth the influencing factors of the mental health of medical students, and to provide clues and reference bases for the mental health counseling and education of medical students. Methods A web-based questionnaire survey was conducted on 1 767 medical students enrolled in a university school in Xinjiang using a general condition questionnaire and an emotional self-assessment scale, and combined with one-way and logistic regression analyses to explore the mental health status of medical students and their influencing factors. Results The incidence rates of stress, anxiety and depression were 17.0% (300/1 767), 37.6% (665/1 767) and 29.4% (520/1767) respectively. Univariate analysis found statistically significant differences between different grades, ethnicity, family economic status, physical activity, appetite status, sleep status, and getting along with classmates or friends (P<0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that family economic status, physical exercise, sleep status, and getting along with classmates or friends were the main influencing factors for the occurrence of psychological problems among students in a medical school in Xin- jiang (P<0.05). The partial correlation results found a positive correlation (P<0.05) between the two of stress, anxiety and depression, with the largest correlation coefficient (0.57) between the stress and anxiety scores. Conclusion Medical students in a university in Xinjiang are experiencing different degrees of psycho- logical problems of stress, anxiety and depression. It is important to strengthen the psychological monitoring of poor medical students, pay close attention to students with poor sleep quality, and guide them to have a regular work and rest schedule and to maintain a moderate level of exercise.

Background Currently, there has been a gradual increase in the incidence of mental diseases, becoming a problem that has attracted great concern of the general public. Zhuhai is a core city of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, and the local government have attached great importance to the mental health of residents. The systematic study on the mental health has focused largely on pregnant women and medical workers, yet few are on the adult residents. Objective To investigate the prevalence and its influencing factors of anxiety and depression among adult residents in Zhuhai, so as to provide references for formulating targeted psychological intervention strategies. Methods From September 1 to December 1, 2021, a cohort of 5 600 permanent residents aged 18 years and above in Zhuhai were selected through multistage sampling. All participants were subjected to complete Patients' Health Questionnaire Depression Scale-9 item (PHQ-9), Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale-7 item (GAD-7) and National Mental Health Literacy Questionnaire based on Wenjuanxing software. Then Logistic regression was employed to identify the factors associated with anxiety and depression among the residents. Results Among the 5 600 residents, depressive symptoms were detected in 842 (15. 04%) residents and anxiety symptoms in 579 (10. 34%) residents. Logistic regression analysis yielded that female gender (OR=1. 488), living in Doumen district (OR=1. 942), junior college/undergraduate level (OR=3. 602), postgraduate and above (OR=5. 904), irregular meal pattern (OR=3. 320), comorbid chronic diseases (OR=3. 244), disqualification of self- assessment (OR=3. 414)and disqualification of mental health skill (OR=2. 131) were risk factors for depression symptoms, whereas age ≥25 years old (of all age groups OR<1), monthly per capita income >20 000 yuan (OR=0. 438)and exercising ≥3 times a week (OR=0. 431) were protective factors for depression symptoms. Age of 25~34 years old (OR=2. 051), living in Jinwan district (OR=1. 729) or Doumen district (OR=1. 901), junior college/undergraduate level (OR=2. 955), postgraduate and above (OR=6. 662), irregular meal pattern (OR=2. 741), comorbid chronic diseases (OR=3. 535), disqualification of self-assessment (OR=3. 325) and disqualification of mental health skill (OR=1. 838) were risk factors for anxiety symptoms, while monthly per capita income of 6 001~9 000 yuan (OR=0. 665) and exercising ≥3 times a week (OR=0. 572) were protective factors for anxiety symptoms. Conclusion The mental health status of adult residents in Zhuhai is affected by various factors, including gender, age, region of residence, education level, meal pattern, exercise frequency and chronic diseases.

Objective To understand the emotional perception and general mental health status of medical students, and explore related influencing factors to promote mental health education for medical students. Methods An on-site questionnaire survey was conducted on 1 037 medical students at Kunming Medical University to describe their overall psychological status. Factors influencing the positive/negative emotions and general mental health of medical students were analyzed through multiple linear regression and logistic regression analysis. Results The average score of positive emotions among medical students on campus was 26.31 ± 6.76), while the average score of negative emotions was 21.50 ± 6.76) . The detection of mental health problems was relatively low 8.58%). Whether only child, academic performance, and self-reported health status P < 0.05) had an impact on positive emotional scores; Gender, self-reported health status, and sleep time had an impact on negative emotional scores P < 0.05) . The prevalence of mental health problems among medical students was influenced by whether they were single child or self-reported health status P < 0.05) . Conclusions Good academic performance can enhance positive emotions, and students with shorter sleep duration and poorer physical health are more likely to perceive negative emotions and experience mental health problems. Universities should pay attention to the psychological status of medical students and take corresponding measures to ensure their physical and mental health to promote medical education.

Objective To examine the joint effects of parent-child relationship and environmental sensitivity (ES) on adolescent mental health from the perspective of sensitivity X family conflict interaction. Methods In 2023, we investigated 7,010 adolescents from six junior high schools in Shaanxi Province, China. Self-reported questionnaires were used to assess parent-child relationship, ES, and adolescent mental health. ES was assessed by Highly Sensitive Child Scale (HSC) ; Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire (SDQ), and Happiness index were used to measure depression, externalizing problems, and subjective well-being. Results ① Girls' ES scores were significantly higher than boys' (t=-7.504, P<0.01) . ② When predicting depression and externalizing problems, the main effects of parent-child relationship and ES in adolescents were significant (b=-0.263, 0.237, 0.332, P<0.001; b=0.201, 0.220, P<0.001), and the interaction between family conflicts and ES was significant (b=-0.072, P<0.05; b=0.092, P<0.05) . (3) Widaman's confirmatory and competitive approach results showed the significant interaction of sensitivity X family conflict with depression and externalizing problems, which were consistent with the differential susceptibility and diathesis-stress framework, respectively (BIC=2 170.98, 2 162.6) . Conclusion Adolescents with high environmental sensitivity suffer more from high family conflict and benefit more from low family conflicts. These sensitive adolescents can be described as having developmentally susceptibility rather than vulnerability. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Communimetric screening tools help clinicians identify and communicate their patient's areas of need and the corresponding level of action. However, few tools exist to identify mental health (MH) and developmental needs in young children. We aimed to implement and evaluate a new communimetric MH and developmental screening tool for children under 6 (HEADS‐ED Under 6) in a community MH agency in Ontario, Canada. Using a prospective cohort design, we explored how intake workers used the HEADS‐ED Under 6 screening tool from November 2019 to March 2021. 94.5% of children (n = 535/566) were screened with the HEADS‐ED at intake. Total HEADS‐ED scores and domains were used to inform the intensity of recommended services. Three clinical domains (Eating & sleeping, Development, speech/language/motor, and Emotions & behaviors) also independently predicted a priority recommendation. The tool showed good concordance with the InterRAI Early Years for children under 4 years old. The HEADS‐ED Under 6 was a brief, easy, and valid screening tool, and can be used to identify important MH and developmental domains early, rate level of action/impairment, communicate severity of needs, and help determine intensity of service required.

The research group conducted a survey on the current problems of mental health services for the rural residents in Beijing, such as the unbalanced development between urban and rural areas, the shortage of talents and so on, and then it pointed out the current situation and existing problem of mental health services for the rural residents in Beijing. Through the analysis of 926 effective questionnaires, the following situations are found. The overall level of mental health of peasantry is good. 70. 52% of the residents are satisfied with their mental health status. Although 64. 47% of the residents have a need for mental health services, only 24. 8% of whom are willing to seek psychological help when facing psychological problems, which shows the willingness to help is low. In addition, 17. 17% rural communities have provided a wide variety of mental health services, with which the residents are very pleased. Based on the above, the writer proposed that the mental health of peasantry should be paid close attention to, and their needs for mental health services should be well met. The psychological cultivation of high-quality peasantry should be strengthened so that these high-quality farmers will participate in the rural psychological services as an endogenous force. In this way, both the quality and the coverage of rural residents’ mental health services can be improved greatly. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective To understand the mental health status of middle school students in Qianjiang district, analyze the relevant factors affecting their mental health and provide scientific basis for the intervention of middle school students' psychological problems. Methods A total of 1 450 middle school students from two middle schools in Qianjiang district were selected by stratified sampling. The mental health status was assessed by the Chinese Middle School Students' Mental Health Inventory (MMHI-60), and the related factors were analyzed. A total of 1 249 valid questionnaires were collected. Results The detection rate of psychological problems among middle school students in Qianjiang District was 43.55%, mild degree was 34.67%, moderate degree was 7.85%, and severe degree was 1.04%. Among them, learning pressure, anxiety and emotional instability ranked the top three. Boys were better than girls in eight factors of obsessive-compulsive symptoms, paranoia, hostility, depression, anxiety, learning pressure, maladjustment and emotional in stability, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The scores of obsessive-compulsive symptoms, paranoia, interpersonal relationship, depression, anxiety, learning pressure, maladjustment, emotional instability and psychological imbalance of junior high school students were significantly lower than those of senior high school students (P<0.05). The average scores of paranoia, hostility, interpersonal relationship, depression, anxiety, learning pressure, maladjustment, emotional instability and psychological imbalance of middle school students in ordinary classes were significantly higher than those in key classes, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The score of emotional instability factor of middle school students from complete families was significantly lower than that of incomplete families, and the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). logistic regression analysis showed that gender (OR=1.52.95%CI:1. 211-1.908,P<0.001) and grade(OR=2.29,95%CI:1.574-3.319,P<0.001) were independent risk factors for psychological problems of middle school students, and class type (OR=0.72.95% CI:0.566-0.914, P=0.007) was a protective factor for psychological problems of middle school students. Conclusion Middle school students in Qianjiang district have different degrees of psychological problems, and the problem of learning pressure is the most prominent. Gender and grade are independent risk factors affecting the mental health of middle school students, while class type is a protective factor for psychological problems. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective To verify the mental health status and methods to regulate emotion as well as identify the associated factors among Northwest University students during the lockdown period of the COVID-19 outbreak in Xi'an. Methods A questionnaire survey using the random sampling was conducted among the college students in Xi'an, using Self-Control Scale(SCS), Perceived Social Support Scale(PSSS), the Depression-Anxiety-Stress Scale Lite(DASS-21), and Self-Rating Scale of Sleep(SRSS). Results A total of 512 valid questionnaires for college students were collected. The statistical results showed that during the lockdown period after the COVID-19 epidemic outbreak in Xi'an, there were gender and discipline differences in self-control and understanding of social support among college students. That is, compared with boys, girls were more likely to receive social support(P=0.031), friend support(P=0.008), and other support(P=0.029). Compared to liberal arts majors, college students majoring in science and engineering were more likely to engage in self-control, especially in healthy habits(P=0.001), moderate entertainment(P=0.002), and impulse control(P=0.001). However, there was no significant difference in the influence of students' age or whether they came from rural or urban areas on their self-control and understanding of social support abilities. The statistical results also found that the age of college students was significantly correlated with their level of stress and sleep status. Their self-control ability and ability to comprehend social support also had correlation with their mental health status and sleep status during the lockdown period of the epidemic. Conclusion College students were prone to have negative emotions and sleep disorders during the lockdown period of sudden epidemic, which were more common in senior grades, male college students, and liberal arts majors. Active self-control and seeking social support can effectively moderate negative emotions and sleep disturbances. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To explore the relationship between mental health social and exclusion among college students, as well as the relationship between self-forgiveness and mindfulness. Methods: A total of 2 072 college students (1131 males and 941 females) were selected and assessed with the General Health Questionnaire (GHQ20), College Student Social Exclusion Scale (SEQU), College Students Self-forgiveness Questionnaire (CSSQ), and Philadelphia Mindfulness Scale (PHLMS). Moderated mediation test was performed by using macro program PROCESS model 59 in SPSS program. Results: Self-forgiveness played a mediating role between mental health and social exclusion (β = 0.10). Mindfulness regulated the mediating effects of self-forgiveness between mental health and social exclusion through the front and back pathways, as well as the direct effects of social exclusion on mental health (β=0.01, 0.01, 0.01). Conclusion: College students' mental health maybe related to social exclusion and self-forgiveness plays a mediating role between them. Mindfulness regulates the relationship between mental health and social exclusion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To explore the prevalence of sleep problems among residents in the city of Ruian during the outbreak of novel coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19), and to investigate whether the presence of sleep prob lems was related to the infection of COVID-19. Methods: Totally 4 810 community residents (1 116 residents tested positive for COVID-19 and 3 694 residents tested negative for COVID-19) were chosen by stratified convenience sampling. All participants were assessed with the Sleep Self-Rating Scale (SRSS, total score 23 SRSS screen-pos itive), Generalized Anxiety Scale (GAD-7, total score 5 GAD-7 screen-positive) and 9-item Patient Health Ques tionnaire (PHQ-9, total score 5 PHQ-9 screen-positive). Results: The screen-positive rates of SRSS, GAD-7 and PHQ-9 were 30.5%, 33.7% and 27. 2%, respectively. Logistic regression analysis showed that the infection of CO VID-19 was significantly associated with the SRSS screen-positive (OR = 1. 73, 95% CI: 1.48-2.03), after con trolling for the confounding variables of gender, age group, GAD-7 screen-positive and PHQ-9 screen positive. Conclusion: The prevalence of sleep problems was higher in the residents tested positive for COVID-19 than in those tested negative for COVID-19. The occurrence of sleep problems may be directly associated with the infection of COVID-19. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To explore the characteristics and associations of symptoms among freshmen in high vocational education with varied levels of mental health state. Methods: A sample of 3 601 freshman students from a vocational college in Zhejiang province was chosen to evaluate their mental health state by the University Personality Inventory(UPI). Based on network analysis method (NAM), the core symptoms associated with various levels of mental health state were analyzed by using the Ising model, cross-network comparisons were conducted by using the Network Comparison Test (NCT). Results: Among students who might have severe psychological problems, the strongest association was found between low self-esteem symptoms, with the core symptoms primarily concerning emotions and interpersonal issues (egde = 1. 36). Among students who might have mental block, the strongest association was between social avoidance symptoms, with the core symptoms mainly linked to low self-esteem (egde = 1.89). NCT revealed that there were no significant differences in general strength (P>0.05) among vocational college freshmen at different mental health state. However, there were significant differences in network structures (P <0.001). Conclusion: In varying levels of mental health, symptoms among higher vocational college freshmen are primarily characterized by interpersonal emotional issues with low self-esteem, and interpersonal avoidance issues with low self-esteem. The students who may have severe psychological problems would have closer network connections. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To investigate the relationship between growth mindset and mental health in middle school students, and to explore the intervention effects of growth mindset intervention in different grades and at different times after intervention. Methods: Totally 612 middle school students from a certain high school in Xi'an were selected to evaluate their growth mindset and mental health status using the Mental Health Diagnostic Test (MHT) and Implicit Personality Theory Questionnaire (IPT-Q). They were divided into a growth mindset intervention group (n = 306) and a conventional mental health class group (n = 306) using a simple random sampling method. The growth mindset intervention group received an additional 45 minutes of growth mindset class on top of the conventional mental health class. Three factor analysis of variance was used to compare the MHT scores of participants in different grades, groups, and time conditions. Results: There was a negative correlation between IPT-Q scores and MHT scores in middle school students ( r = 0.1, P < 0.05 ) At 4 weeks after intervention, the MHT scores were lower in the growth mindset intervention group than in the conventional mental health class group [(30.8 ±5.0) vs. (35.9 ±16.6), At 4 months after intervention, there was no statistically significant P < 0.00111 difference in MHT scores between the two groups (P > 0.05) Conclusion: It suggests that growth mindset intervention could improve the mental health status of middle school students in the short term.

Objective To understand the mental health status and influencing factors of workers in electronic enterprises in a city. Methods From January to July 2023, a purposive sampling method was adopted to select workers from 9 electronic enterprises in a city as the study subjects. The China Occupational Stress Measurement Core Scale, the Chinese version of the Patient Health Questionnaire-9 (PHQ-9), and the Chinese version of the Generalized Anxiety Disorder Scale (GAD-7) were used to evaluate occupational stress, depressive symptoms, and anxiety symptoms, respectively. A binary logistic regression model was used to analyze the influencing factors. Results A total of 468 valid questionnaires were collected, with an effective recovery rate of 97.50% . The detection rates of occupational stress, depressive symptoms, and anxiety symptoms among these workers were 34.62%, 73.50%, and 34.83%, respectively. The regression analysis results showed that the occupational stress risk of workers in management positions was 3.399 times (P < 0.01) higher than that of workers in production positions. The risk of occupational stress for workers with an employment time of 2 -4 years was 6.601 times higher than that of workers with an employment time longer than 10 years (P < 0.05), and the risk of occupational stress in the 5-10 year group was 4.016 times higher than that of workers with an employment time longer than 10 years (P < 0.05). The risk of depressive symptoms of workers in medium-sized enterprises was 1.816 times (P < 0.01) higher than that of workers in small and micro -enterprises. The risk of anxiety symptoms of workers in medium - sized enterprises was 1.961 times (P < 0.01) higher than that of workers in small and micro-enterprises, and the risk of anxiety symptoms of workers in management positions was 2.289 times (P < 0.01) higher than that of workers in production positions. Conclusions The workers in electronic enterprises in the city had a relatively high level of occupational stress, and health problems such as depressive symptoms and anxiety symptoms were prominent. It is recommended that enterprises ensure the weekly working hours within 48 hours, appropriately increase the salary and benefits, reasonably arrange job positions according to individual characteristics, and adopt appropriate health intervention measures to reduce the risk of mental health problems among employees.

Objective To explore the effect of sublingual immunotherapy on clinical efficacy and mental health of children with allergic rhinitis (AR). Methods A total of 53 children diagnosed as AR admitted to the Department of Otolaryngology, Huai'an Hospital Affiliated to Xuzhou Medical University from June to December 2019 were selected as the observation group, and 53 healthy children with matching age, sex and education level were recruited as the control group. Rhinoconjunctivitis quality-of-life questionnaire (RQLQ), child behavioral checklist (CBCL) and sleep quality were compared between the two groups before treatment and 4 months, 1 year, 2 years and 3 years after treatment respectively. Results After treatment the scores of RQLQ, CBCL and sleep quality scores all decreased compared with those in the pre-operative in the observation group. The scores of RQLQ, CBCL and sleep quality between the two groups were all significantly different before treatment, and 4 months, 1 year and 2 years after treatment (P <0.05). There was no significant difference 3 years after the treatment between them (P <0.05). Conclusion Sublingual immunotherapy can effectively relieve the clinical symptoms of pediatric AR and promote their mental health development with less adverse reactions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective: To investigate the relationship among mental health, maternal negative emotion and mother-child attachment in preschoolers. Methods: A total of 591 mothers of preschoolers from 8 kindergartens were selected. The Preschoolers Mental Health Scale (PMHS) was used to evaluate mental health of the preschoolers, the Self-rating Depression Scale (SDS) and Self-rating Anxiety Scale (SAS) were used to evaluate maternal negative emotions, and Maternal Object Relationship Scale-Short Form (MORS) was used to evaluate mother-child attachment. Results: The scores of SDS and SAS were positively correlated with the total scoresand scores of each dimension of PMHS (r=0.69-0.93, Ps <0.001). The maternal SDS and SAS scores were positively associated with total PMHS scores (β=0.38, 0. 52). The products of maternal SAS scores and MORS scores were negatively associated with the total PMHS scores (β= 0.12). Conclusion: Preschoolers mental health is closely related to a maternal negative emotion and mother-child attachment. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objectives: This study investigated the effect of the COVID-19 pandemic on the lives and mental health of health-care professionals and their families at different stages of the crisis. Methods: We interviewed 16 health-care professionals and 12 relatives of health-care professionals. Thematic analysis was performed for data analysis. Results: We identified five main themes for the health-care professionals: “effect of the pandemic on work life,” “effect of the pandemic on personal life,” “psychological effect during the pandemic,” “psychological changes during the pandemic,” and “expected support and assistance.” Furthermore, we identified four main themes for the relatives of health-care professionals: “effect of the pandemic on family life,” “psychological effect during the pandemic,” “psychological changes during the pandemic,” and “support and assistance received by family members.” Conclusions: The findings revealed the substantial effects of the pandemic on the professional and personal lives of the health-care professionals, influencing their concerns and causing various psychological changes at different stages. The health-care professionals expressed the need for modifications in epidemic prevention policies and support measures. Furthermore, in terms of the relatives of health-care professionals, the pandemic has altered family dynamics and affected their psychological states and concerns. During the pandemic, they received relevant assistance and support. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective To investigate the mental health status and its influencing factors among elderly hypertensive patients from Rural Areas of Chuxiong and Honghe Prefecture in Yunnan. Methods Multi-stage random sampling method was adopted to select elderly hypertensive patients from rural Yi ethnic areas in Yunnan. Questionnaires were used to collect their basic information and mental health status. Multivariate logistic regression was performed to explore the influencing factors of mental health among the elderly hypertensives. Results 21.82% (209/958) of elderly people with hypertension have poor mental health status in Chuxiong and Honghe Prefecture, Yunnan. Age of 80-89 years (OR = 2.395, P<0.05) and over 90 years (OR = 3.293, P<0.05), as well as physical disability (OR = 2.037, P<0.05), were risk factors for poor mental health. Compared with those who rated their economic situation as very difficult, rating as somewhat difficult (OR = 0.490, P<0.05), moderate (OR = 0.632, P<0.05) and relatively affluent (OR = 0.344, P<0.05), having a spouse (OR =0.655, P<0.05), received full concern from the offspring (OR = 0.411, P<0.05) and maintain good relationships with offspring (OR = 0.339, P<0.05) were protective factors. Conclusions The mental health status of elderly people with hypertension is relatively poor in rural areas of Chuxiong and Honghe Prefecture in Yunnan Province. Special attention should be paid to the mental health of older and physically disabled elderly hypertensives. Economic and mental support from children was crucially important in improving the mental health of elderly hypertensive patients in rural areas of Chuxiong and Honghe Prefecture in Yunnan Province.

Objective To explore the relationship and internal path between activities of daily living (ADL), sleep quality and mental health of community elderly people in Shanghai. Methods A questionnaire survey was conducted among community residents aged 60 years and older seeing doctors in community health care center of five streets in Shanghai during Sept to Dec, 2021 using convenience sampling. Activities of Daily Living (ADL), Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and 10-item Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) were adopted in the survey. Single factor analysis, correlation analysis and multiple linear regression were used to analyze the data. The effect relationship between the variables was tested using Bootstrap’s mediated effects test. Results A total of 1 864 participants were included in the study. The average score was 15.53±4.47 for ADL, 5.60±3.71 for PSQI and 15.50±6.28 for K10. The rate of ADL impairment, poor sleep quality, poor and very poor mental health of the elderly were 23.6%, 27.3%, 11.9% and 4.9%, respectively. ADL and sleep quality were all positively correlated with mental health(r=0.321, P<0.001; r=0.466, P<0.001) ; ADL was positively correlated with sleep quality (r=0.294, P<0.001). Multiple linear results of factors influencing mental health showed that ADL (β = 0.457,95%CI: 0.341-0.573), sleep quality (β =0.667,95% CI: 0.598-0.737) and mental health were positively correlated (P<0.001). Sleep quality partially mediated the relationship between ADL and mental health (95%CI: 0.078-0.124) with an effect size of 33.0%. Conclusion Sleep quality is a mediator between ADL and mental health among community elderly people. Improving ADL and sleep quality may improve mental health in the population.

This essay, based on a 2022 plenary presentation at the International Society for the Study of Overseas Chinese conference, details the state of anti-Asian American racism from 2020 through 2022. First, it describes the nature and extent of the discrimination. While the media presented the issue as one of hate crimes, the vast majority of hate incidents involved verbal harassment and shunning/avoidance. Second, it reviews the sources of the surge in racism. Political rhetoric and social media re-ignited Yellow Peril fears, leading to the scapegoating of Asians in the US for COVID-19. Third, it considers the traumatizing impact of this spate of racism. In particular, Asian Americans have suffered severe economic distress, have borne the disproportionate brunt of exclusionary public policies, and have been traumatized by the violence of the past three years. The essay concludes with how the Asian American community has resisted with the largest panethnic movement in its history. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective To explore the impact of the three-level assistance model based on the narrative nursing theory on the mental health status of medical staff. Methods 140 medical staff working in a third class hospital in Xiangyang City were selected as the research object. The three-level assistance model based on narrative nursing theory was used to intervene them from September 2021 to July 2022. The symptom self-assessment scales before and after the intervention were compared. Results Before the intervention, the total score of SCL90 (156.37±32.56) points and the scores of various symptom factors of medical staff were higher; After the intervention, the total score of SCL-90 (133.35±43.48) points and the scores of various symptom factors were lower than those before the intervention and the difference was statistically significant (P < 0.05). Conclusion The threelevel assistance model based on narrative nursing theory can reduce the total score of SCL-90 and the scores of various symptom factors, improve the mental health status and mental health level.

This study adopts EQ ⁃5D ⁃3L, Pittsburgh sleep quality index, GHQ ⁃12, and Morse fall scale （MFS）to investigate older adults in M County and to explore the interaction mechanism between sleep quality and quality of life of the older adults in rural areas. The mediating and moderating effects were tested by the Bootstrap method. The results found that mental health partially mediated between sleep quality and quality of life among older adults (effect size -0.197, 95% confidence interval -0.331 to -0.072), with the mediating effect accounting for 43.8% of the total effect. The mediating effect was affected by the risk of falls(R = -0.020, P < 0.01), with a more significant effect observed in older adults with a higher risk of falls. Therefore, fall risk in rural older adults moderates the mediating role of mental health on the association between sleep quality and quality of life. Reducing fall risks may improve the quality of life among older adults with poor sleep and mental health. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective To analyze the effects of watching short videos on the mental health of the middle-aged and elderly in China, to provide scientific basis for improving the mental health of the middle-aged and elderly. Methods Based on the data of China family panel studies (CFPS) in 2020, the linear regression model and propensity score matching method were used to explore the average effect of watching short videos on the mental health of the middle-aged and elderly. Results Watching short videos could significantly improve the mental health level of middle-aged people ( beta = - 0.217 . P < 0.05 ). Watching short videos had a more significant effect on women, rural areas, and middle-aged and elderly people with an education level of junior high school or below (women: beta = - 0.323 P<0.05; rural areas: beta = - 0.309 P<0.05; junior high school: beta=-0.387. P < 0.01; middle-aged people: beta = - 0.27 P<0.05). The nearest neighbor matching, radius matching, and kernel matching all passed statistical tests. Conclusion Watching short videos has to some extent improved the mental health of middle-aged and elderly people, and it is necessary to further increase the internet penetration rate of the elderly population and expand the coverage of smartphone usage training. Attention should be paid to the mental health of women, rural registered residence, middle-aged and elderly people with low education and income levels as well as physical diseases.
