A sample of 720 college students from 10 different universities at the Guangzhou Higher Education Mega Center are investigated using the Social Support Scale, the Prosocial Behavior Scale, and the Interpersonal Trust Scale. Data are analyzed using SPSS20.0 and Amos7.0. Results show that the subjective support and support utilization of college students directly influences prosocial behavior, and indirectly affects prosocial behavior through the influence of emotional trust and quality trust. Additionally, interpersonal trust plays an intermediary role in the influence of social support on pro-social behavior.

The Relationship

This study examined the relationship between emotional intelligence (EI) and prosocial behavior (PSB) and constructed a model for their interaction by examining the mediating effect of social support (SS) and the moderating effect of self-esteem (SE) in this relationship. A total of 742 college students aged from 18 to 20 in Northeast China (Mage =19.42 ± 0.53 years) completed a survey measuring the Emotional Intelligence Scale, Prosocial Tendencies Measurement Scale—Chinese Version, Perceived Social Support Scale, and Self-Esteem Scale. The results showed that: (1) EI positively predicted PSB; (2) SS partially mediated the relationship between EI and PSB; and (3) SE moderated the direct effect of EI on PSB and the relationship between SS and PSB. That is, when the SE of college students was higher, the effect of SS in promoting PSB was enhanced. Therefore, our results suggested that under the influence of both internal and external factors, there is an indirect effect of EI on PSB. This finding may potentially provide a theoretical basis for designing college students' mental health courses and cultivating PSB in college.

The Relationship

I explored the relationship between forgiveness and subjective well-being (SWB), and the mediating effect of social support in this relationship. Participants were 443 college students from Henan, China, who completed the Heartland Forgiveness Scale, Perceived Social Support Scale, and Subjective Well-Being Scale. The results show that both interpersonal forgiveness and self-forgiveness were significantly correlated with SWB. Moreover, social support partially mediated the effects of both self-forgiveness and interpersonal forgiveness on SWB. These findings extend prior research and elucidate how forgiveness can influence SWB in college students.

In order to explore the influencing factors of college students' love view, this study used love questionnaire, adult attachment scale and interpersonal trust scale to investigate 790 college students. It was found that the adult attachment is dependent love view and interpersonal trust. There is a linear correlation between them; for girls, interpersonal trust and love are also linearly related, but not for boys; for girls, interpersonal trust depends on the closeness dimension, anxiety dimension and love concept of adult attachment .There is an intermediary role between them; for boys, interpersonal trust does not have an intermediary role. In summary, there is a gender difference in the mediating effect of interpersonal trust, that is, gender has a moderating effect. The results of this study provide a certain theoretical support for better exploring the influencing factors and mechanisms of the concept of love from the perspective of growth factors.

Penelitian ini menggunakan desain kuantitatif korelasional. Sampel yang digunakan berjumlah 195 dari 421 siswa dengan teknik pengambilan sampel cluster sampling. Alat pengumpul data yang digunakan adalah PASS (Procrastination Assesment Scale of Students), TMBS (Time Management Behavior Scale, dan CASSS (Child and Adolescent Social Support Scale). Koefisien skala tersebut adalah 0,266-0,660; 0,273-0,767; dan 0,277-0,726 dengan nilai alpha 0,781; 0,876; dan 0,933. Adapun teknik analisis data menggunakan analisis regresi berganda. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan yang signifikan antara manajemen waktu dengan prokrastinasi akademik (R= 0,420, F(4,190) = 10,192, p = <0,01). Kemudian antara dukungan sosial dengan prokrastinasi akademik juga terdapat hubungan yang signifikan (R = 0,062, F(4,186) = 3,346, p = <0,05). Begitu pula antara manajemen waktu dan dukungan sosial secara bersama-sama juga memiliki hubungan yang signifikan dengan prokrastinasi akademik (R = 0,482, F(8,186) = 7,021, p = <0,01). Disarankan agar guru BK dapat memberikan layanan yang dapat menurunkan prokrastinasi akademik. Saran untuk penelitian lanjutan, bisa melihat seberapa besar pengaruh penetapan tujuan dan prioritas, mekanisme perencanaan dan penjadwalan, dan persepsi kontrol atas waktu terhadap prokrastinasi akademik dalam studi eksperimen. This research aims to identify the relationship between the time management and the social support to the academic procrastination of grade XI students in partially as well as communally. This research used a correlational quantitative design. The samples of this research were taken using cluster sampling which consisted of 195 selected students from 421 students.  Data were collected using the instrument of Procrastination Assessment Scale of Students (PASS), Time Management Behavior Scale (TMBS), and Child and Adolescent Social Support Scale (CASSS). The coefficients of those scales are 0.266-0.660, 0.273-0.767, and 0.277-0.726 with the alpha value of 0.781, 0.876, and 0.933. Furthermore, the data of this research were analyzed using multiple regression analysis. According to the result analysis, it showed that there is a significant relationship between the time management and the academic procrastination—where R = 0.420, F(4.190) = 10.192, and p =<0.01—and the significant relationship also occur between the social support and the academic procrastination—where R = 0.062, F(4.186) = 3.346, and p =<0.05.

BACKGROUND Physical inactivity is a risk factor for chronic noncommunicable diseases. Insufficient physical activity has become an important public health problem worldwide. As mobile apps have rapidly developed, physical activity apps have the potential to improve the level of physical activity among populations. OBJECTIVE This study aimed to evaluate the effect of physical activity apps on levels of physical activity among college students. METHODS A Web-based questionnaire was used to survey college students in Beijing from December 27, 2017, to January 5, 2018. According to a previous survey, 43% of college students using physical activity apps and 36% of those who never used such apps achieved the physical activity recommendations. In this study, the sample size was calculated to be 500. The questionnaire consisted of 5 parts: the use of physical activity apps, sports habits, social support, self-efficacy, and social demographic information. Structural equation modeling was used to test the relationships between the use of physical activity apps, self-efficacy, social support, and level of physical activity. RESULTS Of the 1245 participants, 384 college students (30.8%) used physical activity apps (in the past month). Of these 384 students, 191 (49.7%) gained new friends via the app. College students who were using physical activity apps had a higher level of physical activity and higher scores for social support and self-efficacy (<italic>P</italic>&lt;.001) than those who did not use such apps. The use of physical activity apps significantly affected the mediating effect of physical activity level through social support (beta=.126; <italic>P</italic>&lt;.001) and self-efficacy (beta=.294; <italic>P</italic>&lt;.001). Gender played an important role in app use, self-efficacy, and physical activity in the mediation model: male users spent more time on physical activity and had higher self-efficacy scores (<italic>P</italic>&lt;.001). CONCLUSIONS This study focused on college students in Beijing and found that the use of physical activity apps is associated with higher physical activity levels among these students. This effect is mainly through the mediation effect of social support and self-efficacy, rather than the direct effect of physical activity apps. The use of physical activity apps is associated with a higher social support level and higher self-efficacy score. Furthermore, a high social support level and high self-efficacy score are associated with higher physical activity levels.

AbstractThe purpose of this study was to determine the strength of the relationship between a retrospective evaluation of the experienced social support given by grandparents and the material status of the family with the quality of life of the grown-up grandchildren in families of different structures. The formulated expectations have been verified with the Social Support Scale (SSS), Student’s Life Satisfaction Scale (SLSS) and an individual personal survey. The obtained results show that in families of single mothers, the emotional and informative support offered by grandparents was a significant factor improving the quality of the life of the grandchildren. In a complete family, however, the significant forms of support from grandparents were esteem support and its other forms, except for informative support. Moreover, the material wealth of the original family was shown to be an important predictor of the evaluation of the quality of life of the grandchildren; it was judged more negatively by adolescent children of single mothers.
