This research aims to examine the relationships between empathy, prosocial behaviour, and personality factors among Saudi undergraduate students. In total, 394 Saudi undergraduates participated in the study, which employed the prosocial behaviour scale (PBC), international personality item pool (IPIP), and Toronto empathy questionnaire (TEQ). The Pearson correlation analysis was used to investigate the associations between the research variables, while process macro analysis used to examine whether empathy mediates the association between agreeableness and prosocial behaviour. The research findings indicate that personality factors are related to empathy. Saudi undergraduates who show higher degrees of empathy would also show high degrees of prosocial behaviours. In addition, personality factors were similarly associated with prosocial behaviour. The results also show that empathy mediates the relationship between prosocial behaviour and agreeableness. The results of this study expand the existing literature review on prosocial behaviour by explaining how personality factors influence prosocial behaviour through the mediation role of empathy.

Attachment theories postulate that attachment is crucial during adolescence and act as an important predictor to prosocial behavior. From attachment and prosocial value perspective, people develop the ability to empathize with others which is related to healthy functioning and positive helping behavior. This study therefore examine the relations between social attachments (i.e., parental, peer, school, and ethnic group attachments) and prosocial value (i.e., kindness) on the distinct type of prosocial behavioral tendencies (i.e., altruistic and egoistic prosocial behaviors). The study was conducted among the Orang Asli adolescents (N = 402) aged 14 years and 16 years from ten secondary schools in the states of Perak and Pahang and employed self-administered questionnaire. The results revealed that there were significant relationships between parental, peer and ethnic group attachments on altruistic and egoistic prosocial behavior tendencies. Significant relationship also was found on the relations between prosocial value and both prosocial behavior tendencies. However, there was no significant relationship for school attachment and both prosocial behavior tendencies. Findings from this study suggests that attachment to specific social group contribute to the distinct types of prosocial behavior tendencies, meanwhile, regardless of the types of prosocial behavior, it comes together with the kindness act. This study further discusses on the implication of attachment specifically among the Orang Asli in preserving their prosocial acts.

(1) Background: The present study investigated the relationships between social identity, core self-evaluation, school adaptation, and mental health problems in migrant children, and the mechanism underlying these relationships; (2) Methods: The participants were migrant middle school students in China. Data analysis was conducted using SPSS version 26. A survey comprising the social identity scale, core self-evaluation scale, school adaptation scale, and mental health scale MMHI-60 was deployed; (3) Results: Findings indicated a significant and negative association between social identity and mental health problems, and such an association was sequentially mediated by core self-evaluation and school adaptation. Furthermore, core self-evaluation and school adaptation played a chain mediation role between social identity and migrant children’s mental health problems; (4) Conclusions: It is crucial to improve social identity, core self-evaluation, and school adaptation to reduce mental health problems among this population. Therefore, the research results provide a new direction for promoting the development of mental health education for migrant workers and their children in China.

The theory of planned behavior has been widely used in several behavioral fields of research and has been proven to have good behavioral explanatory power. In order to investigate the current status and development of the theory of planned behavior, this paper sort to find out its trends in the past 10 years. This study is based on 7437 theoretical literatures on the theory of planned behavior from 2012 to 2022 collected in the core collection of the Web of Science (WOS) database and uses CiteSpace's bibliometric visualization software to study the number of articles, countries /regions, and authors of the collected data whereby to summarize the research based on the theory of planned behavior. Keyword co-occurrence, burst analysis, literature co-citation, and timeline map were used to analyze the research hotspots and frontier trends in the field of theory of planned behavior. The results show that the research literature on the theory of planned behavior increases year by year from 2012 to 2022. The country with the highest number of publications is the United States, followed by China, but a core group of authors has not yet been formed. The main research hotspots are in the areas of health promotion and environmental behavior, business and consumer behavior, and analytical studies of the theory. Future research trends are in the area of business and consumer behavior, with a focus on green consumption and pro-environmental behavior. In summary, this study provides a bibliometric review of the research literature on the theory of planned behavior over the past 10 years. The areas of business and green consumption and pro-environmental behavior serve as research trends, and interested researchers can pay further attention to relevant research in this area. Overall, the analysis demonstrates that the theory of planned behavior is essential for understanding and predicting human behavior, which enables a vast array of applications.

A good night's sleep is essential for human mental and physical health, and chronic sleep deprivation has been related to impaired neurobehavioral function. This study aims to determine the relationship between internet addiction, loneliness, and cognitive workload on sleep quality among public university students in Klang Valley. A total of 400 respondents involved from three public universities in Klang valley. A self-administered questionnaire was used as a tool for data collection. The result revealed that most of the respondents had moderate level of internet addiction, loneliness, and cognitive workload. Meanwhile, the result also showed that majority of the respondents scored low level severity of sleep quality. In addition, cognitive workload, loneliness and internet addiction were positively correlated with sleep quality issues. Multiple regression analysis showed that loneliness and cognitive workload were significant predictors of sleep quality issues among the students with cognitive workload as the strongest predictor. This study concluded that undergraduate students' cognitive workload, loneliness and internet addiction were important in influencing the undergraduate students' sleep quality issues. By understanding the impact of these psychological factors on sleep quality particularly among the undergraduate students, it helped to minimize the possibility of undergraduate students' sleep quality issues in order to promote and maintain a healthy lifestyle for them. Thus, the impact and implications of this study will be discussed.
