贫困与留守儿童心理健康关系研究--以江西省修水县分析为例

Research on the Relationship between Poverty and Mental Health of Left-behind Children--An Analytical Study Based on Xiushui County in Jiangxi Province

贫困对儿童心理健康的影响研究尚存学术争议,学界对留守儿童群体的相关实证研究较为缺乏。文章基于社会因果论的理论分析框架,通过分析江西省修水县625名留守儿童的问卷调查数据,验证贫困对留守儿童心理健康的影响。结果表明:留守儿童的贫困程度较高,多维剥夺现象严重;贫困对留守儿童的消极心理健康和积极心理健康均有显著性影响,但影响程度有差异;留守儿童的心理健康存在显著年级差异,高年级留守儿童的心理健康水平相对较差。文章的研究发现为提升贫困留守儿童心理健康水平提供了重要依据。

Researches on the impact of poverty on children＇s mental health remain academic controversial. Empirical researches aimed at left-behind children groups are still lacking. Based on the research analysis framework of social causation theory,this study analyzes the impact of poverty on the mental health of the left-behind children through the survey data of 625 left-behind children in Xiushui of Jiangxi Province. Results show that： The poverty level of the left-behind children was relatively high,with severe muti-dimensional deprivation; Poverty had a significant effect on both negative mental health and positive mental health of left-behind children,but there were differences in the degrees of influence; There was a remarkable grade difference in the mental health of the left-behind children,and the mental health level of high grade children was relatively poor. This study provides an important basis for improving the mental health of the left-behind children in poverty.
