ObjectiveTo investigate the prevalence rate of mobile phone dependence， and to analyze the mediating role of emotional intelligence between parenting rearing behavior and mobile phone dependence among college students， so as to provide references for relieving the mobile phone dependence among college students. MethodsStratified cluster sampling method was applied to enroll 1 200 students from three colleges in He'nan province， and the selected individuals were assessed using Parental Bonding Instrument （PBI）， Mobile Phone Addiction Index （MPAI） and Emotional Intelligence Scale （EIS）. Then the relationship between parenting rearing behavior and mobile phone dependence was discussed， and the mediating effect of emotional intelligence was explored using AMOS path analysis. ResultsOf the students who completed the survey， 597 out of 1 090 （54.77%） suffered from mobile phone dependence. The scores of care and encouragement of behavioral freedom in PBI were negatively correlated with the total score and each dimension score of MPAI （r=-0.316~-0.197， P<0.01）， the denial of psychological autonomy score in PBI was positively correlated with the total score and each dimension score of MPAI （r=0.206~0.258， P<0.05 or 0.01）. EIS score was negatively correlated with total score and each dimension score of MPAI （r=-0.317~-0.219， P<0.01）. The indirect effect sizes of maternal care， encouragement of behavioral freedom and denial of psychological autonomy on mobile phone dependence through emotional intelligence were 47.98%， 47.00% and 42.93%， respectively. The indirect effect sizes of paternal care， encouragement of behavioral freedom and denial of psychological autonomy on mobile phone dependence through emotional intelligence were 47.99%， 48.71% and 44.70%， respectively.

A case-control study of the risk factors for neurosis / 中国心理卫生杂志

Objective: To screen out suspected risk factors associated with neurosis, such as personality dis-order, life events, parental rearing behavior, and to explore degree of their associations. Methods: A case-control study was carried out among 100 cases with neurosis and 200 controls without mental disorder, matched by gender and age (+3 years) . The Life Events Scale (LES), Parental Rearing Style Questionnaire (EMBU), Personali-ty Diagnostic Questionnaire (PDQ-4) were self-reported by the subjects. Results: Single factor analysis showed that there were statistical differences (P <0.05) between case and control groups in negative life event (22.5 vs. 2.5), paternal rejection [(40.4±14.1) vs.(35.4±7.9)], paternal overprotection [(29.1±7.5)vs.(28.2±5.6)], maternal rejection rearing behavior [(40.4±13.7)vs.(36.8±8.5)], and overall personality disorder [(29.8±14.1)vs.(17.1±13.0)] . Using non-conditional logistic regression analysis, the potential protective factor was positive events (OR=0.92, 95% CI:0.87-0.98), and the potential risk factors included negative live events (OR=1.06, 95% CI:1.04～1.08) and overall personality disorder (OR=4.84, 95% CI: 2.24～10.49) . Conclusion: Positive life event may be a protective factor for neurosis, while negative life e-vent and personality disorder may be risk factors.

Thigmotactic responses in an open-field

The goal of the present study was to investigate the role of thigmotaxis (the tendency to remain close to vertical surfaces) in rat exploratory behavior in an open-field. Thigmotaxis was investigated in a parametric way, using 24 experimentally adult naive male Wistar rats (210-230 g). Exploratory behavior was studied in an open-field (N = 12) in 5-min sessions and behavior was analyzed in terms of where it occurred: in areas surrounded by two, one, or no walls. Another group of rats (N = 12) was studied in an open-field with blocks placed near two of the corners so as to make these corner areas surrounded by three walls. The floor of the open-fields was divided into 20-cm squares in order to locate the exact place of occurrence of each behavior. The following behaviors were recorded: entries into the squares, rearings, and groomings. In both types of open-field the rats chose to remain longer in the squares surrounded by the largest possible number of walls. In one of the open-fields, the mean time (seconds) spent in squares surrounded by two walls was longer than the time spent in squares surrounded by one or no walls (37.2, 7.7, and 1.8 s, respectively). In the other open-field, the mean time spent in squares surrounded by three walls was longer than the time spent in squares surrounded by two, one or no walls (41.7, 20.4, 7.0, and 2.6 s, respectively). Other measures presented a similar profile. These results indicate that rats are sensitive to the number of walls in an environment and prefer to remain close to them.

Rearing Behavior and Rearing Stress of Fathers with Children of Preschool and School Age / 간호학회지

PURPOSE: This study was conducted to compare the paternal rearing behavior and rearing stress level between fathers with a preschooler and fathers with school children so that it can be utilized as a basic source for developing parental rearing education programs. METHODS: A descriptive comparative method was conducted to identify the paternal rearing behavior and paternal rearing stress. Respondents were 361 fathers who had either preschoolers (n=189) or children of elementary age (n=172). RESULTS: Comparing the two group's means, the rearing activity score and rearing stress there were significant differences. In the school children's group's father, 'outdoor activity' and 'guidance on discipline activity' were significantly higher than the other group. In the preschool children's fathers group, 'play interaction activity' was statistically significant higher than the other, and the child-part mean score of paternal rearing stress was significantly higher than the other group. The correlation between paternal rearing behavior and paternal rearing stress, indicates that more paternal rearing behavior means less paternal rearing stress. CONCLUSION: These results of this study will help design more effective rearing programs for fathers that have either preschool children or school children by providing the basic data for paternal rearing behaviors and paternal rearing stress.
