Abstract

In order to understand the overall social mentality of contemporary college students, and explore the internal structure of mentality and the mutual interaction mechanism, this paper analyzes more than 6000 survey data of 19 universities in 18 cities across the country based on the structural equation model with intermediary effects. The conclusions show that: (1) The overall social mentality of contemporary college students is positive. Most of them advocate positive values and have positive social perceptions, but they are emotionally contradictory. They are full of hope for the future and are full of Anxiety with an uncertain future; (2) Values and social cognition can directly or indirectly affect the participation behavior, discriminatory behavior and conflict handling methods of college students through the effect of emotions; (3) Values have a greater impact on behavior than social cognition obvious.
