Low self-control is theorized to be a key correlate of delinquency. Using a nonadjudicated sample (N = 1057) from Hong Kong and Macau, the influence of self-control on self-reported violent and nonviolent delinquencies was investigated using Grasmick’s self-control scale. The influences of demographics and self-control on delinquency were also examined. Findings indicate that these adolescents are more likely to engage in overall delinquency, particularly violence, if they are older and if they are less educated. Age is the only demographic predictor of nonviolent delinquency. Risk-seeking behaviors and self-centeredness have significant influences on both violent and nonviolent delinquencies, while low frustration tolerance and preference for cognitive activities are only associated with an increased level of violent misconduct. These findings highlight the overall significant influence of self-control on adolescent delinquency in Chinese adolescents. Suggestions are offered to enhance adolescents’ self-control as a way to reduce their tendency to involvement in delinquent activities.

Study purpose. Self-control is a crucial factor in influencing college athletes' training commitment. In this study, burnout serves as a mediating variable for the influence of self-control on training commitment. Given the importance of training commitment in the training process, appropriate interventions are needed for college athletes to develop self-control and overcome burnout. This study aims to predict the influence of self-control on training commitment with burnout as a mediating variable. Materials and methods. A quantitative approach was chosen for this study, and questionnaires were completed by 123 college athletess university in Surabaya. Participants filled out a questionnaire containing the Brief Self-control Scale (BSCS), the Athlete Burnout Questionnaire (ABQ), and the Athlete Commitment Instrument (ACI). Data analysis was conducted using the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM-PLS) technique. Based on the results of the mediation test, it was found that p = 0.009, which means that burnout has a mediating effect on the influence of self-control on training commitment. Results. This means that college athletes with high self-control will have high training commitment with a tendency toward low burnout levels. College athletes with good self-control will maintain training commitment and manage any burnout they experience. The results of this study can contribute to the relevant parties by examining the interventions used to conduct exercises to minimize burnout. Conclusions. Additionally, these new findings recommend further research to explore the type of intervention appropriate for the intensity and volume of exercise. It is concluded that burnout is able to mediate the influence of self-control on training commitment.

This research aims to examine the influence of financial knowledge, self-control, and financial anxiety on financial attitude. In contrast to previous research which often positions financial attitude as an independent variable, in this research financial attitude is the dependent variable. The urgency of this research is to find out what aspects influence financial attitudes during the Covid-19 pandemic. We used survey methods via questionnaires in collecting and structural equation methods in data analysis. Respondents in this research were 623 active students from 18 universities. This research found that pro-growth mental accounting and financial self-efficacy simultaneously influence financial behavior, but no influence was found on self-control on financial anxiety.

The study of the experience of job loss by specialists of preretirement age in connection with their financial anxiety as a personal factor, as well as with self-assessment of the financial situation and subjective financial well-being is presented in the article. Approaches to the study of financial anxiety as a reactive state and financial anxiety as a personal property are analyzed. It is noted that specialists of preretirement age are subject to noticeable discrimination by employers and experience problems with employment and education. The results of a study of unemployed people of pre-retirement age (N=153) using the “Scale of Personal Financial Anxiety” methods, the Job Loss Situation Perception Questionnaire, the “Social Axioms”, “Value Orientations”, questionnaires for self-assessment of the financial situation and subjective financial wellbeing are presented. Four empirical types of the unemployed are identified, and the features of their perception of the situation of job loss, selfassessment of financial well-being and satisfaction with it are described. Significant differences were found in the level of financial anxiety, self-assessment of financial well-being and satisfaction with it among representatives of different types. It is noted that financial anxiety, being a personality trait, is apparently a significant factor in the perception of a situation of lack of work and determines the general emotional state of the individual, cognitive elaboration of the prevailing life circumstances, as well as behavior strategies in this situation. The possible social consequences of the emotional problems of the unemployed are shown, and the prospects for further research are outlined.

Open access publication In Russian (Abstract and References in English) The article presents the results of a study of clinical and psychological factors of mental and emotional states among women (N=127) with the extracorporal fertilization (IVF) treatment. There are analyzed data from clinical interviews (type of infertility (female, male), cause of infertility, the planning time of pregnancy, number of attempts and the kind of IVF experiences of relationships in the parent family and with husband, self-relationship and health) and socio-demographic indicators (nature of work, type of marriage and number of marriages, the availability and scheduling of children). There are analyzed the relationship of these indicators with personal and situational anxiety. In the group among women with a female infertility a personal and situational anxiety were higher. Personal anxiety is higher among women with negative mental states (apathy, depression, emotional fatigue, high anxiety, and sleep disturbance, obsessive thoughts about pregnancy, fears, panic attacks), than among women with somatic problems (physical fatigue, lack of sexual desire, hormonal imbalance, endocrine disorders, vascular dystonia, cystitis, eye problems, problems with the musculoskeletal system). There is a need in further research to clarify causal relationships between personal characteristics and negative mental states, and other risk factors, such as problems in the relationship. Personal anxiety is higher among women who indicated relationship problems with their husbands. More severe anxiety among women with children (their own, husband’s) can indicate the complexity of personal experiences and the system of motives of pregnancy that requires a differentiated approach in the psychological support to this category of women with the treatment on the IVF program. The obtained data testify that the characteristics and dynamics of the mental states among women in the program of IVF treatment can be associated with the causes of infertility; negative experience of relationships in the parent family, especially the authoritarian and emotionally cold relationship with the mother; the personal qualities among women, the nature of the dominant reproductive motives, which in turn are connected with the peculiarities of the social situation (marriage, children); the time of pregnancy planning, which may be due to the type (female, male) reproductive health problems and the number of IVF attempts. The identification of the relationships and interdependency of these factors, the nature of their impact on the treatment process, the course and outcome of pregnancy in cases of external reproductive technologies need further study in longitudinal and comparative studies on larger samples of respondents. The obtained data allow: to carry out early diagnostics of social and psychological factors that impede the process of infertility treatment methods of assisted reproduction; to carry out psychological prevention of the formation of negative mental states and targeted psychological assistance in medical treatment with the IVF program.

The purpose of this paper is to establish the possible influence of personal and reactive anxiety on personality characteristics, cognitive abilities and performance of basketball actions of basketball players. An empirical study is conducted with basketball players (which are also students at University of Economics – Varna - UEV) in 2016, playing basketball at the Sports Club at the UEV. To establish the level of effectiveness of the students’ game actions, their performances in 9 meetings (10 units of observation) are recorded. ANOVA is used to determine differences in basketball performance measures for individuals with relatively high levels of anxiety and for individuals with relatively low levels of anxiety. One of the indicators is “personal anxiety” (Q6). Another indicator is available. It is “reactive anxiety” (Q7). PSPP is used to analyze the dataset. The ANOVA test shows that there is a statistically significant difference (p<0.05) in Q21 “Countering a shelter with successful” for the examined two groups of basketball players. The practical significance of the results refers to the effectiveness of the educational and sports process of university students. The novelty of the paper refers to the analysis of personal characteristics of basketball players (such as anxiety) on their performance in action.

This article discusses the impact of psychological traits and personal maturity on family stability. The family, being the most significant institution in society, is where a person’s identity is formed and developed. The influence of the family on the development of personal identity is immense, especially in the context of communication dynamics and parenting styles, which shape individual behavior, emotional health, and psychological well-being. These, in turn, are crucial factors for forming a stable and strong family. Family stability is greatly influenced by the social environment, economic factors, and the cultural characteristics of society. A key role in building harmonious and stable family relationships is played by personal maturity, which is a lifelong, ongoing process of self-development. One component of personal maturity is considered to be a person's ability to form and live within a family. Many psychologists argue that family stability, as a problem, depends on the ability to overcome cohabitation challenges, and in this context, the issue of individual maturity is often overlooked. There arises a need to determine how personal maturity and family relationships are interconnected and what patterns they follow. A study was conducted on the psychological maturity and personal traits of individuals who have been married for a long time and those who are divorced. This research made it possible to identify key components of personal maturity that affect family stability. The article also addresses the development of criteria for personal maturity across various scientific and psychological approaches. It presents several theoretical perspectives on family and personal maturity and offers a comparative analysis of contemporary approaches. The study reveals that married individuals demonstrate a higher level of goal orientation, characterized by a stable, conscious, and consistent pursuit of desired outcomes. Goal orientation encompasses the ability to set objectives, plan their achievement, and overcome both internal and external obstacles. This trait is closely linked to the perception of life’s meaning and reflects an individual’s psychological maturity. Additionally, the research identifies lower levels of self-awareness among divorced participants. Since self-awareness—formed through reflection on one’s behavior and experiences—is a key indicator of personal maturity, its development may play a crucial role in maintaining family stability. Overall, the findings suggest that traits associated with personal maturity significantly influence the sustainability of marital relationships and can be further developed. These results open avenues for future research into the psychological factors that contribute to the preservation or dissolution of family bonds. The observed trends resulting from the study may indicate the presence of certain personal characteristics that can influence the stability of marital relationships.The research will contribute to the formation of approaches aimed at developing personal factors that support family stability.

Background Nursing students' pressure caused by academic burden and other reasons will induce students' mobile phone addiction. mobile phone addiction tendency impairs students' daily psychosocial functioning and can lead to depression, anxiety, loneliness, inattention and other adverse mental and physical health problems. Individuals with different levels of self-control and psychological capital respond differently to stress, so it is important to understand the factors that influence mobile phone addiction tendency in nursing students in the context of stress. This study explores the relationship between stress perception, self-control, psychological capital, and cell phone addiction in nursing undergraduates, and therefore to provide new ideas for designing strategies to improve mobile phone addiction tendency in nursing undergraduates. Methods From September 2022 to November 2022, a stratified random sampling method was used to select 616 nursing undergraduates from a university in Shaanxi Province as the investigation objects. Subjective stress, self-control ability, mobile phone addiction tendency and psychological capital level of nursing undergraduates were evaluated by pressure perception scale, self-control scale, mobile phone addiction tendency and positive psychological capital questionnaire. The mediating effect was tested by percentile Bootstrap method with deviation correction, and the moderating effect was tested by PROCESS program. Results (1) 592 valid questionnaires were collected in this study, and 176 (29.72%) of the 592 nursing undergraduates had mobile phone addiction; (2) Self-control played a mediating role between stress perception and mobile phone addiction tendency, with an effect value of 0.362, accounting for 58.86% of the total effect; (3) With the increase of psychological capital level, the influence of self-control on mobile phone addiction tendency was increased (β= -0.007, t = -3.402, P < 0.001). Conclusions Self-control played a partial mediating role in the positive relationship between stress perception and mobile phone addiction tendency among nursing undergraduates. Psychological capital can regulate the relationship between self-control and Mobile phone addiction tendency.

The rapid development of science and technology and the swift improvement of people's material living standards enabled smartphones to be indispensable of people's daily lives. The purpose of this paper was to examine the influence of self-control in adolescents' participation in physical activity on cell phone dependence. The Physical Activity Rating Scale (PARS-3), the Self-Control Scale, and the Cell Phone Dependence Scale were used to measure the influence of self-control in adolescents' participation in physical activity on cell phone dependence among 649 adolescents. The results show: (1) There were significant differences (p < 0.01) in the physical activity levels of adolescents under different gender, birthplace, and education background. (2) Each dimensional variable of physical activity was negatively correlated with the cell phone dependence variable, and positively correlated with each variable of self-control, and the self-control variables were negatively correlated with cell phone dependence. (3) Self-control was partially mediating the effects of physical activity on cell phone dependence, with the mediating effect accounting for 39.68%. Adolescents' participation in physical exercise activities will improve self-control and ultimately reduce cell phone dependence. Curbing the negative and malignant events of cell phone addiction among adolescents, timely investigation of mobile phone and Internet addiction, pathological formation mechanisms and intervention measures are important measures to reshape the healthy lifestyle of adolescents and have great practical significance for the prosperity and development of families, society, nation and country.
