Research Abstract |
We outlined two questionnaire survey and one experiment in this study. The scores of patients' mental health were significantly lower than control group. In patients groups, Receiving Emotional Support showed the largest effect on mental health. In the experiment with students, the result showed that the improvement of health behavior in the providing support group were superior to the receiving group. Cooperation with a certain local city, we researched the effect of their health promotion project with taking advantage of token system. The result suggested that this token project could reduce their dropout.
