ABSTRACT

Against the dual backdrop of the "Healthy China 2030" plan, which emphasizes both "promoting mental health" and "advancing the inheritance and development of outstanding Chinese traditional culture," this article focuses on vocational undergraduate students, a critical group in the cultivation of application-oriented talents. This study aims to systematically elucidate, from a theoretical perspective, the multi-dimensional impact and intrinsic mechanisms of traditional cultural identity as a positive cultural and psychological resource on their mental health. By analyzing how the philosophy of life, moral codes, aesthetic values, and social etiquette in traditional culture are internalized into an individual's cognitive schema, emotional patterns, and behavioral norms, this article argues for the positive value of traditional cultural identity in alleviating psychological stress, enhancing psychological resilience, increasing the sense of meaning in life, and regulating social behavior. It also provides a theoretical basis and pathway inspiration for integrating outstanding Chinese traditional culture into vocational undergraduate education to improve the quality and effectiveness of mental health education.
