Little is known about the relationship between social comparison orientation and mental health, especially in the psychological capital context. We proposed a theoretical model to examine the impact of ability- and opinion-based social comparison orientation on mental health using data from 304 undergraduates. We also examined the mediating effect of the four psychological capital components of hope, self-efficacy, resilience, and optimism in the relationship between social comparison orientation and mental health. Results show that an ability (vs. opinion) social comparison orientation was negatively (vs. positively) related to the psychological capital components. Further, the resilience and optimism components of psychological capital fully mediated the social comparison orientation–mental health relationship. Our findings indicate that psychological capital should be considered in the promotion of mental health, and that the two social comparison orientation types have opposite effects on psychological capital.

The mental health of college students with financial difficulties is a matter of great concern to the society. The mainly psychological characteristics are academic difficulties, interpersonal avoidance, emotional distress, imbalanced personality development and others. The main problems of mental health education for students with financial difficulties are: there is not a precise psychological education system for students with financial difficulties. The society generally attaches importance to "economic poverty alleviation" but ignores "psychological poverty alleviation". Negative psychological problems are highlighted, while positive psychological capital training is ignored. This paper proposes to improve the psychological early warning assistance system for students with financial difficulties, to carry out mental health education in a targeted manner, and to cultivate the psychological capital advantages and sound personality of students with financial difficulties.
