The results were as following: (1) The envy of primary school children was the highest in the family context.(2) In the school context, the envy of the boys in grade 4 and 5 was higher than that of the girls, and the envy of grade 5 boys was higher than that of grade 4 boys, but the envy of grade 3 girls was the highest. In the family context, there was no significant change with increasing grade in the envy of the boys, but the envy of grade 4 girls was the lowest, and the envy of grade 4 boys was higher than that of the girls. In other context, the envy of the boys was higher than that of the girls, but the envy of grade 4 children was lower than that of grade 3 children.(3) The envy of primary school children had a positive effect on their task persistence.

Personoriented Approach in Applied Psychology:Theory, Methods, and Challenges Psychology: Techniques and Application. 2016, 4 (12):  744-762.  DOI: 10.16842/j.cnki.issn2095-5588.2016.12.006 Abstract ( 413 )   PDF（pc） (779KB) ( 1540 )   Save Derived from a holisticinteractionistic system view, the personoriented approach, which diverges from the variableoriented approach, focuses on the individuals but not the variables and aims to identify the homogeneous subgroups. The holisticinteractionistic view comprises holism and interactionism. The former involves the assumptions on nonreducibility, nonseparability, and selforganization, whereas the latter refers to the reciprocal causal relationship between different components within and among systems. The typical statistical analytic techniques in the personoriented approach comprise clustering method, configural frequency analysis, ISOA, LICUR, latent class analysis, and mixture growth modeling, and so on. Although this approach initially emerged in the field of developmental psychology, these years it has increasingly gained popularity in several subdivisions of applied psychology, such as organizational behavior and community psychology. Future personoriented studies should standardize the usage of terminology, promote the prediction formation, and combine the personoriented with variableoriented approaches.

It brings revolutionary progress for psychological research. This paper combs the virtual reality technology applied in phobia, anxiety, eating disorders and posttraumatic stress, analyzes three advantages by comparison with traditional psychology, and finally points out that the application of virtual reality technology in clinical psychology is still at the laboratory stage and needs to be improved in technology, the treatment schedule and the treatment scope.
