The Mediating Effect of Academic Procrastination on the Relationship Between Rural Middle School Students' Grit and Academic Achievement DU Shuailing, ZHU Yanli Psychology: Techniques and Application. 2020, 8 (1):  9-16.  DOI: 10.16842/j.cnki.issn2095-5588.2020.01.002 Abstract ( 423 )   PDF（pc） (597KB) ( 792 )   Save Aiming to investigate the relationship between the rural middle studentsgrit and academic achievement and the mediating effect of their academic procrastination, as well as the internal psychological mechanism, we surveyed 337 rural middle school students by the Short Grit Scale, the Middle School Students' Academic Procrastination Questionnaire and the Academic Achievement Questionnaire. The investigation indicated the following results: (1) The questionnaire scores of the rural middle studentsgrit, academic procrastination and academic achievement questionnaire showed significant difference in terms of demographic variables such as the grade of students and the education level of their parents, as the grit score of high-grade students was lower, the procrastination score was higher and the academic achievement was lower. The students whose parents had taken higher education had higher score on grit, lower on academic procrastination and higher on academic achievement. The grit score was also affected by family income as the students with higher family income showed significantly higher grit. There was also significant gender difference on the rural middle studentsacademic procrastination and academic achievement. The academic achievement score of male students lower than that of the female students, and the academic procrastination higher. (2) The rural middle studentsgrit was significantly negatively correlated with their academic procrastination and was significantly positively correlated with their academic achievement. (3) The academic procrastination plays a fully mediating role in the relationship between the rural middle school studentsgrit and academic achievement. The results suggest that the middle school students' grit has a positively predictive effect on their academic achievement, and the full influence can be achieved by reducing their academic procrastination.

College Students' Self-Esteem and Intimate Relationship:The Mediating Role of Relationship Beliefs YANG Menghan, LU Runhao Psychology: Techniques and Application. 2020, 8 (1):  25-32.  DOI: 10.16842/j.cnki.issn2095-5588.2020.01.004 Abstract ( 560 )   PDF（pc） (647KB) ( 909 )   Save This research aimed to examine the relationship between the college students' self-esteem and intimate relationship with the mediating role of relationship beliefs. 463 college students were surveyed with selfesteem scale, implicit theories of relationships scale and the relationship assessment scale. Results showed that selfesteem and growth belief were positively correlated with the quality of intimate relationship; college students' self-esteem could positively predict their intimate relationship; growth belief played mediating role between college students' self-esteem and intimate relationship but destiny belief did not. Hence, the college students' self-esteem can influence the intimate relationship directly or through the growth belief. The results of this study were valuable for the establishment, maintenance and development of intimate relationships among college students. Related Articles | Metrics

Inhibitory Effect of Apologetic Vehicle Signal on Driver's Anger MENG Hao, MA Jinfei, FENG Yu Psychology: Techniques and Application. 2020, 8 (1):  33-40.  DOI: 10.16842/j.cnki.issn2095-5588.2020.01.005 Abstract ( 294 )   PDF（pc） (560KB) ( 276 )   Save This study aimed to explore the effect of apologetic vehicle signal on drivers' anger. 618 drivers were tested with the situation questionnaire. This study adopted a single-factor inter-group design, in which the independent variables were divided into two levels: the vehicle signal group and the non-vehicle signal group. And the dependent variables were the anger score and the responsibility inference score of each situation. The results show that the scores of drivers responsibility inference and the anger are significantly reduced in the situation of apologetic vehicle signal. Regression analysis shows that the more drivers responsibility inference to aggressive drivers, the more anger they would have. This shows that drivers who use apologetic vehicle signal can obviously reduce other drivershostile responsibility referring to them and decrease their anger. The apologetic vehicle signal has a significant effect on the drivers' anger, and they restrain drivers' score of anger. Related Articles | Metrics

A Method of Q-matrix Estimation Based on Item Fit Statistic RMSEA YANG Yakun, ZHU Shihao, LIU Xinling Psychology: Techniques and Application. 2020, 8 (1):  51-59.  DOI: 10.16842/j.cnki.issn2095-5588.2020.01.007 Abstract ( 345 )   PDF（pc） (821KB) ( 491 )   Save Usually, cognitive diagnostic assessment (CDA) is based on a test and the corresponding cognitive diagnostic model to construct a diagnostic analysis. Many approaches need a Q-matrix which reflects how attributes are measured in each item when applying the cognitive diagnosis model into an assessment. Q-matrix plays an important role in CDA. Qmatrix can be defined by experts in related fields, and also can be estimated according to students' response data. Based on the existing Qmatrix refinement methods, a Q-matrix estimation method using an item fitting statistics RMSEA is proposed. The effectiveness and efficiency of the method are verified by a simulation study. And a real data analysis is also included. The results show that: (1) the CSE algorithm based on RMSEA can effectively estimate the attribute vectors of new items, and it takes less time; (2) the success recovery rate of Q-matrix estimation is greatly affected by the number of attributes and the number of basic items, especially when the number of attributes is large, it requires more basic items to estimate the attribute vectors of new items; (3) The sample size has little effect on the performance of CSE approach and a big sample size is not necessary to implement the Qmatrix modification method. Even if the number of subjects is 400, as long as the number of basic items is enough, it can have a high recovery ratio; (4) The application of this method to the analysis of empirical data can optimize the existing analysis results to a certain extent and improve the fitting of model-data.
