RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo investigate the characteristics of autonomic nervous response of armymen with different mentalqualityuse the enhanced emotion regulationstrategies during fear emotion processes.Methods Mental Quality Questionnaire of Armymen was used to select participants from 818 armymen,screening out 30 armymen with low mental quality,30 armymen with moderate and 30 armymen with high.With elicitation of fear emotion,the participants adopted enhance emotion regulation strategies (cognition emphasis and emotion catharsis),and their blood volume pulse( BVP),skin conductance( SC ),normalized high frequency spectral component(HFnorm),standard deviation of all normal intervals(SDNN) and the recovery time of BVP and SC were recorded.Results ( 1 ) The different mental quality of army men activity in the autonomic physiological changes were not significant differences in resting state.(2) When using the cognition emphasis,the SC of different mental quality of armymen were reduced,and low mental quality of armymen( ( -0.67 ± 1.05 )μ.Ω),moderate mental quality of armymen ( ( - 0.49 ± 0.75 ) μΩ) had larger SC than high mental quality of armymen ( ( - 2.16 ± 2.18 ) μΩ ) ;high mental quality of armymen( ( - 2.17 ± 8.96) nU ) had lower HFnorm than the control( ( 6.96 ± 7.08 ) nU ).When using emotion catharsis,high mental quality of armymen ( ( 1.95 ± 6.58 ) nU ) had lower HFnorm than the control( (6.96 ±7.08)nU).(3)When using the cognition emphasis,low mental quality of armymen ((65.50 ±43.43 )s) had longer recovery time of BVP than high mental quality of armymen( (26.50 ± 25.72)s).When using emotion catharsis,low mental quality of armymen( (71.50 ± 48.36)mm Hg)had longer recovery time of BVP than high mental quality of armymen ( ( 21.00 ± 35.50 ) mm Hg) ; low mental quality of armymen ( ( 103.50 ± 38.01 ) s)had longer SC than moderate( (63.50 ±48.59)s) and high mental quality of armymen( (61.50 ±33.09) s).Conclusion The ability to regulate sympathetic in low mental quality group is weaker than the high mental quality group,although sympathetic can be suppressed when enhanced emotion regulation are adopted.
RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo explore activity characteristics of diverse autonomic nervous system of armymen with different mental quality levels during dread emotion processes.MethodsMental Quality Questionnaire of Armymen was used to select participants.The activities of the diverse autonomic nervous system of armymen withdifferent mental quality levels during dread emotion processes were discussed by physiological - psychological experiments.Results ( 1 ) Under neutral condition blood volume pulse (BPV) is greater in low mental quality group( ( -0.87 ±0.64)mm Hg) than in high( -0.28 ±0.24)mm Hg).(2) During dread emotion processes the normalized low frequency spectral component(LF) and skin conductance (SC) are greater in low mental quality group ( (6.54 ± 2.96) nU),(0.78 ± 0.11 ) umho) than in moderate ( ( 1.32 ± 1.25 ) nU,( (0.22 ± 0.15 ) umho) and high ((3.51 ±2.28 )nU,((0.30 ±0.12) umho).(3) During dread emotion processes the recovery time of HR and the average recovery time of skin conductance( SC ),skin temperature( ST),blood volume pulse(BVP) and HR are greater in low mental quality ( 61.58 ± 35.66 ) s,( 36.78 ± 18.58 ) s ) than in high ( ( 22.36 ± 6.87 ) s,(56.87 ± 23.98 ) s).(4) In emotional arousal,and low mental quality (0.88 ± 2.54 ) in neutral conditions change their arousal'was significantly greater than the middle (0.57 ± 2.88) and high psychological quality group (0.15 ± 1.87) ; Low mental quality group (2.17 ±2.39) under the conditions of pleasure in the dread was significantlygreater than the middle ( 1.87 ± 1.45 ) and high psychological quality group ( 1.24 ± 1.66).ConclusionThe findings indicate that armymen with low mental quality is more likely to show corresponding physiological arousal and alert status in face of the neutral or weak emotional stimuli.When facing dread emotional stimuli,they would show stronger physiological arousal mainly basing on the excitement of sympathetic nerve system,and such statuswould last much longer to bring about more fierce pain experience.
RESUMEN
Objective To analyze the structure of Armymen' s Mental Quality Scale. Methods Army-men's Mental Quality Scale was administrated to 1426 Chinese armymen in five areas of China,and quantitative methods,such as exploratory factor analysis ( EFA), confirmatory factor analysis ( CFA) was adopted . Results (1) Exploratory factor analysis showed that the 15 factors of armymen' s mental quality can explain 58.328% of total variance. (2)Fit indexes of 15-factor structure model were all consistent with model fitting condition. (3) One factor two and five factor one model of mental quality fitted well. The structure of armymen' s mental quality include 5 dimensions (concretely 15 factors):aptitude,loyalty,bravery,self-confidence and willpower respectively. The aptitude was comprised of judgment, decision-making and response; the loyalty consists of patriotism, dedication and responsibility; the bravery was constituted of determination,steadiness and constancy;the self-confidence consists of imperturbation,independence and team spirit;the willpower consists of adaptability,adjustment and endurance. Conclusion The structure model is reasonable and Armymen' s Mental Quality Scale has good structural validity.
RESUMEN
@#Objective To investigate the relationship between social support,coping style and general well-bing in armymen.Methods 280 armymen were tested by General Well-Being Schedule(GWB),coping style questionnaire and social support scale.Results There was a significant difference between the common soldiers and the other armymen(P<0.05);all the factor scores of GWB were related highly with all the factors of coping style and social support(P<0.05～0.01).Conclusion Coping style and social support in armymen are related to the general well-being.
