| dc.description.abstract | Character strengths are positive traits in an individual’s thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. Exploring the character strengths of university students can further reveal the key to enhancing their psychological well-being and happiness. This study investigated the influence of nature relatedness on character strengths among university students, focusing on three chinese universities and one malaysian university. First, the chinese version of nature relatedness scale was revised using data from 692 chinese university students. The revision process involved translation and back-translation, evaluation of item comprehensibility (n=64 for the first evaluation and n=40 for the second), item analysis (sample 1, n=346), exploratory factor analysis (sample 1, n=346), confirmatory factor analysis (sample 2, n=346), validity and reliability analysis (sample 2, n=346). Second, both the chinese and english versions of the nature relatedness scale, five facet mindfulness questionnaire-short form, and three-dimensional inventory of character strengths were administered to assess nature relatedness, trait mindfulness, and character strengths among 386 chinese and 247 malaysian students, with demographic differences analyzed. Third, the influence of nature relatedness on character strengths was examined. Finally, the mediating effect of trait mindfulness on this relationship was analyzed. | |
