“…The increased risk of violence has been reported in several longitudinal studies (Capaldi and Stoolmiller, 1999; Kofler et al , 2011; Fazel et al , 2015; Yu et al , 2017) including using sibling and twin designs (Fazel et al , 2015). In addition, other designs, including cross-sectional and prevalence studies in selected samples, are consistent with this link (Arseneault et al , 2000; Coid et al , 2006; Fairchild et al , 2008; Ferguson et al , 2009; Piko and Pinczés, 2014). However, inconsistent findings have been reported, as several studies found no clear associations between depression and violent outcomes (Chen et al , 2012; van Dorn et al , 2012; Marsh et al , 2016).…”

“…Self-efficacy is defined by Bandura (1977, 1986) as the degree of one’s feelings about one’s ability to accomplish goals. Some studies have shown that self-efficacy is related to aggressive behavior (Pompili et al, 2007; Piko and Pinczés, 2014; Allen et al, 2018). Few studies have been explicitly conducted to assess the association of self-efficacy with aggressive behavior (Wu et al, 2015; Brubacher et al, 2016).…”

Aggressive behavior has been one of the core issues in sports psychology, whereas boxers’ aggressive behavior has received limited attention. Although some literature reported that self-efficacy is related to aggressive behavior, the mechanism whereby self-efficacy affects aggressive behavior remains unclear. The present study investigated the relationship between self-efficacy and aggressive behavior, as well as the effect of self-control as a mediating factor. This study uses the Self-efficacy Scale for Athletes, the Self-control Questionnaire for Athletes, and the Buss-Perry Aggression Questionnaire. This relationship is explored through self-reported measures from N = 414 Chinese professional boxers, n = 243 were male and n = 171 were female, the average age was M = 17.72 years (SD = 3.147), the participants, the average number of years of exercise was M = 3.89 years (SD = 2.734); Results showed that male boxers reported greater aggression than female boxers; It was found that the self-efficacy and self-control improved as age of the participants increased; The higher the level of competition, the higher levels of self-efficacy and self-control; Self-efficacy was negatively related with aggressive behavior and positively correlated with self-control. Self-control was also negatively correlated with aggressive behavior among boxers. Self-control had a full mediating effect on the relationship between self-efficacy and aggressive behavior.

“…Perceived stress, depressive symptoms, and impulsivity are among the many psychological disturbances often experienced by college students. The literature shows that such disturbances negatively affect college students’ overall health and academic performance [ 29 , 33 ]. In addition, psychological disturbances negatively influence health literacy and help-seeking behaviors of college students [ 45 ].…”

“…Impulsivity, defined as “a predisposition toward rapid, unplanned reactions to internal or external stimuli without regard to the negative consequences of these reactions to the impulsive individual or to others” [ 28 ], is considered a key determinant of an individual’s behaviors and reaction to distress. In general, impulsivity affects nearly all aspects of daily life [ 29 ]. Many research studies have been conducted to better understand the relationship between impulsivity and unhealthy behaviors.…”

Background The literature regarding the effect of health literacy on college students’ psychological health and quality of life is scarce. The purpose of conducting this cross-sectional study was to examine the effect of health literacy on certain psychological disturbances (perceived stress, depressive symptoms, and impulsivity) and quality of life of college students. Methods A cross-sectional quantitative design was utilized in this study. A total of 310 four-year college students participated in this study. The students completed a demographics questionnaire as well as already established and validated measures of health literacy, perceived stress, depressive symptoms, impulsivity, and quality of life. Structural equation modeling was performed to analyze the data to explore the effect of health literacy on the psychological disturbances and quality of life. Results The results showed that health literacy has a negative effect on three psychological disturbances commonly experienced by college students; perceived stress, depressive symptoms, and impulsivity. In addition, the effect of health literacy on the quality of life was positive. Conclusion The proposed conceptual model was supported. College students’ counseling staff could use the findings to better address students’ needs pertinent to psychological health and quality of life. Future research is warranted to develop a more comprehensive model that explains the role of health literacy in determining college students’ psychological health and quality of life.
