Exploring the roles of self-care and self-awareness in the psychological well-being of college students

Abstract

Currently, college students face a multitude of pressures, including academic demands, social relationships, and future employment prospects, which can potentially impact their psychological well-being. This study aims to explore the roles of self-care and self-awareness in the psychological well-being of college students. Through surveys and interviews, the research findings indicate that self-care and self-awareness can effectively alleviate the psychological stress experienced by college students, enhancing their adaptability and psychological resilience. The results suggest a positive correlation between high levels of self-care and self-awareness and better psychological well-being. This study underscores the importance of strengthening psychological health education in colleges to help students cultivate positive self-images, enhance self-care and self-awareness, and thereby maintaining their psychological well-being.
