Abstract

the psychological problems of left-behind children in China have developed into a socially concerned issue. This essay starts by presenting the historical formation of the left-behind children in rural areas, and then analyzes the social factors that contribute to these psychological issues through a comparative analysis of the questionnaire survey results on the mental health of left-behind children and the mental health of national youth. These factors are classified into external and internal factors for in-depth discussion. Last but not the least, intervention suggestions are put forward towards this situation.
