Application of positive psychology in college mental health education

Abstract

Colleges and universities are another scenery on the way of students’ life. When students enter the university campus, they
will encounter people and things they have never seen in life. Because they do not have the experience of dealing with such things, many
students will suffer setbacks, and affect the mental health of students. This paper, mainly from the perspective of positive psychology,
proposes to do a good job in various mental health education for college students, aiming to transform from serving a small number of
students with mental problems to serving more students around the concept of positive psychology, and eff ectively improve the level of
students’ psychological literacy. Teachers should pay attention to students’ mental health education, so that mental health education courses
can benefi t more students and the positive psychology concept can be spread on campus.
