ABSTRACT

By reviewing the research on rural left-behind children at home and abroad in the past 10 years, the research progress in the field of psychosocial competence construction of rural left-behind children is summarized. It was found that in the research of psychosocial competence of rural left-behind children, the main psychological competence problems faced by rural left-behind children were summarized into four points: self-perception competence, social adaptation competence, interpersonal communication competence and emotion management competence. In the survey of self-perception competence, it showed that most rural left-behind children have poor self-perception; secondly, children are greatly affected by environment factors, and many children's low sense of family warmth and existence generally caused children's self-perception to deviate; in terms of social adaptation, children are a vulnerable group and the negative impact of bad social discourse and culture on children is very high. It was found that appropriate physical activity and group physical activity will strengthen children's adaptability and improve mental health problems. This research analyzed most of the psychosocial problems of children, as well as possible improvement strategies, and conducted a multifaceted research on the psychological problems of children, involving factors such as family, school and external environment. In recent years, China has made significant improvements to the problem of rural left-behind children, with policies to help children in remote areas and increased control by local government departments, resulting in many improvements to the phenomenon of rural left-behind children.
