Abstract:
Objective:To explore the relationship between psychological resilience and cognitive bias towards school violence in grade 3-5 primary school students in Luzhou city, so as to provide scientific basis for prevention and control of school violence in primary school students.
Methods:Students from grade 3-5 in primary schools in Luzhou were selected through stratified cluster random sampling method and were investigated with questionnaire survey.
Results:A total of 5 976 valid questionnaires were included, with an average score of psychological resilience (40.08±8.05) and an average score of school violence cognition (62.55±6.38). Multivariate results showed that psychological resilience was an independently associated with school violence perception (OR=1.04, P<0.01). The awareness of campus violence increased with resilience score. In addition, public school (OR=0.45) was associated with low awareness of school violence; senior grades (OR=1.77), girls (OR=1.20), and a greater number of friends(OR=1.37), student cadre(OR=1.37), middle/upper score in class(OR=2.13), no game playing(OR=1.33), no off-campus wandering(OR=1.78), timely parenting (OR=1.45) was associated with high awareness of school violence(P<0.05).
Conclusion:Psychological resilience positively correlates with cognition bias towards school violence. The higher the psychological resilience, the more positive perception of campus violence. Family, school and community-based interventions to enhance the resilience of students, increasing awareness towards school violence and ultimately reducing potential adverse impacts of school violence.
