Objective:
To understand the quality of life and its influencing factors of adolescent from low-income families in Nanning City.
Methods:
With the help of the community, junior and senior high school students from 1 144 low-income households and 1 067 non-minimum households in 4 districts of Nanning City were randomly selected to complete a questionnaire survey regarding quality of life and study stress source.
Results:
The quality of life and total scores of adolescents in the low-income families were significantly lower than the national norm(P<0.01), and also lower than the scores of adolescents from normal in come families. The scores of boys in low-income households were significantly higher than those of girls in terms of exercise quality, life chance, negative emotions, and other factors (P<0.05). Girls scored significantly higher in teacher-student relationships, parent-child relationships, and self-concepts than boys (P<0.05). Junior middle school students were significantly higher than high school students in terms of convenience, athletic ability, teacher-student relationship, physical feelings, work attitude, life opportunity, negative emotions, peer relationships, self-satisfaction, other and total scores.Differences were of statistical significance (P<0.05). Regression analysis showed that there are 9 factors that affect social and psychological functions; 8 factors that affect living environment; 5 factors that affect physiological and mental health; 5 factors that affect satisfaction with quality of life; and 4 factors that affect total quality of life(P<0.05).
Conclusion
The quality of life of middle school students from low-income families is low, and effective measures should be developed and implemented accordingly.

Objective:
To understand the status of suicide and self-injury among college students of Yao nationality in Guangxi and their relationship with psychological adjustment ability, and to support the prevention and intervention of suicide and self-injury behavior of Yao university students.
Methods:
From April to May 2019,a questionnaire survey was conducted among 844 Yao university students in three universities in Guangxi in demographics, psychological resilience, and forgiveness.
Results:
Among the students of the Yao ethnic group in Guangxi, 10.90% had suicidal ideation; 4.62% had suicide plan; 3.55% had suicide preparation; 2.84% had suicidal action; and 12.56% had suicidal behavior. The total scores of students with suicidal ideation in Psychological Resilience, Self-Compassion and Hearland Forgiveness Scale were significantly lower than those without suicidal ideation, which was statistically significant(t=-3.74, -5.54, -4.97,P<0.01). Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that a high score for forgiveness was negatively correlated with suicidal behavior(OR=0.28) and self-harm behavior (OR=0.32)(P<0.05).
Conclusion
The psychological resilience, forgiveness, and self-compassion of Yao college students are closely related to suicide-related psychological behaviors and self-harm behaviors. Suicide and self-harm behaviors can be reduced by improving the self-psychological adjustment ability of Yao college students.
