Psychological Healing: a Theoretical Exploration of the Effects of Horticultural Therapy on College Students’ Subjective Well-Being

The purpose of this study was to examine how horticultural therapy affects the subjective well-being of college students. Through theoretical analysis and literature review, the study focused on the role of horticultural therapy in mental health promotion, emotion regulation, self-efficacy enhancement, and creativity and cognitive function enhancement. It was found that horticultural therapy can significantly improve the mental health of university students, especially in stress management and emotional stability. Participation in horticultural activities helped to increase students’ life satisfaction, reduce negative emotions, and enhance their self-efficacy and sense of achievement. In addition, horticultural activities have been found to promote creative thinking and cognitive development. Nonetheless, there are challenges to implementing horticultural therapy, including resource and space constraints, and inconsistent participation. This study proposes that integrating horticultural therapy in a university setting requires a combination of resource allocation, curriculum design, and interdisciplinary collaboration. In summary, horticultural therapy demonstrates the potential to be an effective tool for enhancing the subjective well-being of university students, but its successful implementation requires further strategic planning and research.

Homosexuality, as a sexual orientation, encompasses individuals who experience love and sexual desire exclusively towards individuals of the same sex. Those who identify with this sexual orientation are referred to as homosexuals. Recognizing that various sexual orientations are equally valid, it is important to understand that homosexuality is a complex phenomenon. This paper aims to shed light on the current state of homosexuality in China. It holds universal significance not only for promoting cultural diversity, protecting human rights, strengthening the legal framework, and advancing society, but also for the well-being and livelihood of this vulnerable group.

Beyond the ballot: Factors shaping political participation among university students in Bangkok

This study explores the determinants of political participation among Thai youth, focusing on the roles of political interest, knowledge, and efficacy. Employing stratified random sampling, data were collected from 191 university students in Bangkok. Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) via Smart PLS was utilized to test hypotheses regarding the direct and mediating effects of political interest and knowledge on participation, highlighting the mediating role of political efficacy. The findings indicate that political efficacy significantly enhances participation, while political interest boosts knowledge significantly but does not directly influence efficacy. Furthermore, political knowledge positively affects efficacy but not participation directly. Notably, the indirect effects of political interest on participation through efficacy alone are insignificant, but the pathways from interest to participation through both knowledge and efficacy, and from knowledge to participation through efficacy, are significant. These results elucidate the complex interactions between political interest, knowledge, and efficacy in shaping the political engagement of Thai youth.

Analysis and Countermeasures of the Potential Default Risk of Rural Oriented Normal University Students in Yancheng

To achieve rural revitalization, priority should be given to developing rural education. For rural areas, education not only carries the function of spreading knowledge and shaping civilized village customs, but also provides talent support for rural construction, and plays an irreplaceable basic role in rural revitalization. The policy of rural oriented normal university students in Jiangsu Province aims to train rural teachers who can “go down”, “stay” and “teach well”, but the construction of rural teachers in Yancheng is still facing the problems of shortage of quantity and quality to be improved. This paper analyzes the demand and trend of rural teachers from the current situation of rural normal students in Yancheng, and understands the default of rural normal students in Yancheng, and explores the potential causes of default and the attribution of rural teachers. On this basis, the paper puts forward the countermeasures to construct the training and development mechanism of rural oriented normal university students in Yancheng, which integrates training, management and service, in order to promote the construction and development of rural teachers in Yancheng and accelerate the realization of high-quality development of rural education in Yancheng.
