Analysis on Influence Factors of Mental Health of Rural Impoverished Students in Non-governmental Undergraduate University Taking Non-governmental Colleges and Universities in the Northwest as an Example

Rural college students in private undergraduate universities accounts for a relatively high proportion among poor students. Taking a university in the west as an example, such proportion reaches 70% of poor students and 18.75% of the total students in the school. From wide view, the mental health status of Chinese college students is not optimistic, especially that of poor students is more concerned. Moreover in private undergraduate universities serving as a key part of higher education, the mental health status of poor students tends to be more serious especially in private undergraduate universities with relatively high tuition fees. To make this research, poor students in a private undergraduate college in Northwest China as the sample was taken as the sample and investigated by using the symptom checklist (SCL-90) questionnaire. Data of the investigation result is analyzed in this paper in quantitative and qualitative analysis methods. Compared with the data of the youth norm provided by Jin Hua and et al, it is found that the overall mental health status of poor students in private undergraduate colleges is far from reaching the average level of youth in the nationwide, their difference in obsession, anxious, horrible and mental disease factors is extremely obvious and thus need to be paid more attention; they still have sense of inferiority although there is no obvious difference in somatization performance and interpersonal relation factors and no obvious difference in the sense of inferiority closely related to interpersonal relation with other groups; meanwhile, there are researches proofed that the sense of shame is in positive relation with each factor of SCL-90. As indicated in this sampling data, the scores of such rural poor students in private undergraduate universities as on each factor of SCL-90 are relatively high and the difference between the eight factors (except interpersonal relation and somatization performance) and youth norm is obvious. As can be seen, such group of students has relatively high sense of shame. This paper analyzes the causes among which the internalization of the conflict between the rapid increase of tuition fee in private college undergraduate colleges in recent years and the low income level of family of rural poor students, the rapid success sense of the society, the lack of psychological care from their family and the weak basic education on mental health in primary and secondary schools *Fund project: 1.
