“…This aligns with research findings indicating that as people mature into adulthood, their self-awareness evolves in tandem with their comprehension of their present circumstances and their recognition of their inner capabilities to fulfill their roles in line with their self-concept. One such role that can be assumed is that of a parent who safeguards their children from sexual violence (London et al, 2023).…”

Background: The victims, primarily female children, have suffered sexual abuse, often perpetrated by individuals known to them, such as neighbors or acquaintances. In interviews with concerned parents regarding ongoing cases of sexual abuse, they expressed fears about their children falling victim to such incidents.. The research aim was to assess the effectiveness of support group interventions in enhancing self-awareness and parental coping strategies as preventive measures against child sexual abuse. Methods: The study's main objective is to evaluate the impact of Support Groups in improving Self-Awareness and Parental Coping Strategies. It employed a quasi-experimental design using a non-equivalent group pre-test and post-test methodology, with one group as the control and the other as the experimental group. The study included 70 respondents in the intervention group and an equal number in the control group, selected through purposive sampling. Research instruments comprised the Revised Ways of Coping Scale questionnaire for coping strategies and a self-awareness questionnaire. Non-parametric data analysis was conducted using SPSS, specifically the Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test. Results: Results of the normality test indicated that both the intervention and control groups had p-values of less than 0.05 for coping strategies (0.002 for the intervention group and 0.003 for the control group) and self-awareness (0.000 for both groups), suggesting non-normal data distribution. Consequently, non-parametric statistical analysis was applied with SPSS, and a significance level was set at p < 0.05. The Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test results for the intervention group were 0.000 (coping strategies) and 0.000 (self-awareness), signifying a significant difference in average pretest and posttest scores within the intervention group. Conversely, the control group's Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test results were 0.953 (coping strategies) and 0.317 (self-awareness), indicating no significant difference in average pretest and posttest scores within the control group. Conclusion: Based on the research findings and discussion, it can be deduced that support group interventions positively impact the enhancement of parental coping strategies and self-awareness in the endeavor to prevent child sexual abuse.

“…Furthermore, focusing on the development of students' psychological quality can be a key strategy. Educators can inspire students to discover and nurture their intrinsic qualities, enhancing their self-awareness (London et al, 2023) and resilience (Yeager and Dweck, 2012). Additionally, promoting task-focused thinking and encouraging a positive response to academic and life challenges through teaching and learning strategies can contribute to reducing the occurrence of psychological problems (Blount et al, 1991;Williams et al, 2017).…”

IntroductionThe parent–child attachment has a significant impact on adolescents’ mental health. However, the influence of psychological quality and coping styles on this connection remains unknown. This study examined the relationship between parent–child attachment and adolescent mental health, by exploring the mediating role of psychological quality and the moderating role of coping styles.MethodsA total of 633 young adolescents participated in this study after signing informed consent. They anonymously completed questionnaires including the Parent and Peer Attachment Scale (Parent Attachment Section), the Coping Styles Inventory for Middle School Students, the Brief Version of the Psychological Quality Inventory for Middle School Students, and the Chinese Middle School Students’Psychological Quality Inventory. After controlling for gender, grade, left-behind category, only-child status, and family structure.ResultsThe moderated mediation model yielded the following findings: (a) parent–child attachment significantly and positively predicted adolescents’mental health; (b) psychological quality partially mediated the relationship between parent–child attachment and adolescents’ mental health; (c) the association between psychological quality and mental health was moderated by task-focused coping.DiscussionThis moderation effect was more substantial for students with low task-focused coping behaviors, which aligns with the “exclusionary hypothesis” model. Therefore, our results indicate that parent–child attachment indirectly impacts mental health, influenced by internal and external factors. These findings carry significant implications for safeguarding and promoting adolescents’ mental well-being.

“…In existing studies, some scholars have emphasized the driving effect of outcome consciousness on individual norms, and citizens will take participation behavior only when the practice of participatory governance reaches the expected goals or results (Nordlund and Garvill, 2002). In general, outcome awareness is generally the perception of potential, future negative outcomes (London et al, 2023). Therefore, it may weaken the positive effect of macro-institutional guarantee on citizens' participation in grassroots social governance.…”

Institution is a crucial tool for governing a country. Taking good institution as the cornerstone and promoting the extensive participation of citizens is the important guarantee to realize the modernization of Chinese style grassroots social governance. This article employs the "institution-behavior" analytical framework and utilizes the CSS2017-CSS2019 mixed-sectional data to comparatively analyze the impact and mechanisms of institutional guarantee on citizens' institutional participation, consultative participation and feedback participation in grassroots social governance. The study findings reveal that institutional guarantee promote citizen's institutional participation and consultative participation in grassroots social governance, while inhibiting citizen's feedback participatory behavior. Individual norms, as a form of obligation, exhibit varying degrees of mediating effects or masking effects in the relationship between institutional guarantee and citizen participation in grassroots social governance. Behavioral control plays a negative regulating role in institutional guarantee and citizens' feedback participation. In other words, behavioral control suppresses the negative impact of institutional guarantee on citizens' feedback participation in grassroots social governance. Outcome consciousness has a negative regulating effect between the institutional guarantee and the citizens' institutional participation. In other words, outcome consciousness negatively moderates the positive influence of the institutional guarantee on the citizens' institutional participation in the grassroots social governance.
