The Application of PREMA Model in College Mental Health Education

Abstract

Abstract In order to make the mental health education in colleges and universities continue and let students find more of their advantages and potential, the author proposes the application of PREMA model in the mental health education in colleges and universities. The author applied and explored the positive mental health course of 399 subjects for 13 class hours, which included five modules: “positive emotions and happiness, positive cognition and self-efficacy, positive traits and positive personality, positive environment, summary and sharing”, after longitudinal tracking for a school year, the results show that about 34.81% of freshmen have different degrees of problems or confusion in their first class hours, and about 4.22% of them have mild or more psychological problems. After one academic year, the number of students with different levels of problems or confusion dropped to 2.51%, and only 1.04% of students with moderate or above psychological problems. The overall mental health level of students has been improved, and the level of positive development has been improved. The PREMA model not only provides a new perspective for examining college students’ mental health level and subjective well-being, but also points out a new direction for the teaching of college mental health education courses. The course of positive mental health education plays an important role in improving students’ positive mental quality and promoting the development of mental health education in colleges and universities.
