    The aim of the present study was to investigate the relationship between self-esteem and college students’ prosocial behavior, and the mechanism of empathy and moral disengagement in the relationship. A total of 677 college students were investigated by Self-esteem Scale (SES), Adolescent Prosocial Tendency Scale (PTM), Interpersonal Response Index (IRI-C) and Moral Disengagement Questionnaire. The results showed that: (1) self-esteem positively predicted prosocial behavior of college students; (2) Empathy played a mediating role in self-esteem and prosocial behavior; (3) Moral disengagement had significant moderating effect on self-esteem and prosocial behavior of college students.Specifically, self-esteem had a greater impact on prosocial behavior in groups with high levels of moral disengagement.(4)Moral disengagement had no significant moderating effect on the influence of empathy on prosocial behavior.

    This research used the primary school students’ academic emotions questionnaire, primary school students’ literacy test question bank and evaluation scale to test 318 primary school students with a time span of half a year. The cross-lagged method used to analyze the two data to explore the relationship between the amount of literacy and academic emotions of primary school students. The results indicated that (1) the amount of literacy of primary school students was positively related to positive academic emotions, and the amount of literacy of primary school students was negatively related to some negative academic emotions. (2) The results of the cross-lagged regression analysis showed that positive low arousal emotion in academic mood had a significant positive predictive effect on primary school students' literacy, and conversely, literacy could also positively predict positive low arousal emotion. The above results indicated that primary school students holding calm and relaxed positive emotions can help increase the amount of literacy.

    In view of high prevalence of self-injury and suicidal ideation among secondary school students today, the current study aims to explore the pattern of self-injury and suicidal ideation and related factors through the individual-centered approach. A total of 843 secondary school students were investigated with self-injury, suicidal ideation and potential predictors. We applied latent profile analysis and logistic regression. The results revealed that(1)there were two subgroups of secondary school students: low self-injury/low suicidal ideation subgroup and high self-injury/high suicidal ideation subgroup, accounting for 89.3% and 10.7%, respectively;(2)Poor sleep quality, experiential avoidance, and negative emotions were risk factors for latent classes of self-injury and suicidal ideation among secondary school students. This study bridged the research gap in self-injury and suicidal ideation among secondary school students, clarified the two patterns of self-injury and suicidal ideation as well as related factors, and provided empirical support for the future intervention.

    In order to explore the relationship between resilience and interpersonal adaptability and the mediating role of emotion regulation between them, a questionnaire survey was conducted among 826 college students, using the resilience scale, the emotion regulation scale and the interpersonal adaptability scale. The results indicated that: (1) Compared with students from urban area, those from rural area scored significantly lower on interpersonal adaptability. (2) The fresh students scored significantly lower on interpersonal adaptability than the sophomore and junior students, the senior students scored significantly higher than those in other grades. (3) There was a significantly positive correlation between resilience and interpersonal adaptability, a significantly positive correlation between resilience and cognitive reappraisal, a significantly positive correlation between cognitive reappraisal and interpersonal adaptability. (4) Cognitive reappraisal played a partial mediating role in the relationship between resilience and interpersonal adaptability. In future studies, college students’ cognitive reappraisal could be trained to promote interpersonal adaptability, and then facilitate their mental health.

    To investigate the influence of partner phubbing on family functioning, and the mediating role of marital relationship as well as perceived stress, a total of 959 married adults were investigated by the partner phubbing scale, Chinese perceived stress scale, marital relationship questionnaire, family adaptability and cohesion evaluation scales. The results showed that family functioning negatively correlated with partner phubbing and perceived stress, and positively correlated with marital relationship. There was a significant positive correlation between partner phubbing and perceived stress, and a significant negative correlation between partner phubbing and marital relationship. After controlling for the gender and age, the testing of serial mediation model indicated that perceived stress and marital relationship separately played a mediating role between partner phubbing and family functioning; perceived stress-marital relationship played a chain mediating role between partner phubbing and family functioning. The indirect effect size are respectively 31.58%, 19.60%, 16.55%. The results revealed the mechanism of partner phubbing on family functioning and provide guidance for the construction of family functioning.

    How do people select when faced with a warm but not that competent advisor and a competent but not that warm advisor? Two experiments examined the self-other decision-making differences in advisor selection. Experiment 1 compared the difference between selecting for oneself and for others. Experiment 2 further compared the difference between selecting for oneself and advice for other’s selection. The results showed that participants were more likely to select the warm advisor for themselves, but select the competent advisor for others. However, the option participants advised for others were not different from the option participants chose for themselves. These results suggest that people rely primarily on the advisor’s warmth when selecting for themselves, but rely primarily on the advisor’s competence when selecting for other. However, selecting for other and advising for others are different process.

    Team trust includes not only the interpersonal trust between team members at the individual level, but also the common trust that team members take the team as a whole. At the team level, the factors that affect this kind of collectively shared trust include the characteristics and processes of the team, the communication and conflict of the team, as well as the characteristics of the team leader. Meanwhile, team trust directly or indirectly affects team effectiveness through certain mediating and moderating effects. Future research can further focus on new measurement of team trust, cross level reference and integration, and trust in new team types.
