The psychological situation of high school students during adolescence is not promising, and the most obvious manifestation is the lack of subjective well-being (SWB). This network analysis presents a model of the interaction and correlation between different items of SWB, identifying the most central items for high school students.
Through offline and online surveys, 4,378 questionnaires were sent out and finally 4,282 Chinese high school students were available. The response rate was 97.807%. The study used the eLASSO method to estimate the network structure and centrality measures. This algorithm used the EBIC to select the best neighbor factor for each node.
The average age for high school students was 16.320 years old and the average SWB score was 76.680. The distribution of SWB between male and female students was significant different (P < 0.001). S8 (Have you been anxious, worried, or upset) was the node with the highest strength and expected influence. The network structure and centrality remained stable after discarding 75% of the sample at random. Except for S15 (How concerned or worried about your health have you been), all nodes were positively correlated with each other (P < 0.01). The network structure of SWB was similar for female and male students (network strength: 8.482 for male participants; 8.323 for female participants; P = 0.159), as well as for rural and urban students (network strength: 8.500 for rural students; 8.315 for urban students; P = 0.140).
Targeting S8 (Have you been anxious, worried, or upset) as a potential intervention target may increase high school students' SWB effectively.
高中生在青春期的心理状况不容乐观，最明显的表现是主观幸福感（SWB）缺乏。本网络分析呈现了 SWB 不同项目之间相互作用和相关性的模型，确定了对高中生最重要的核心项目。
通过线下和线上调查，共发放 4378 份问卷，最终获得 4282 名中国高中生，回收率为 97.807%。该研究使用 eLASSO 方法来估计网络结构和中心性度量。该算法使用 EBIC 为每个节点选择最佳邻居因素。
高中生的平均年龄为 16.320 岁，平均 SWB 得分为 76.680。男女生 SWB 分布差异显著（P<0.001）。S8（你是否感到焦虑、担忧或不安）是强度和预期影响最高的节点。在随机丢弃 75%的样本后，网络结构和中心性仍然稳定。除了 S15（你对你的健康有多少关注或担忧），所有节点之间都呈正相关（P<0.01）。SWB 的网络结构对男女学生相似（网络强度：男学生为 8.482；女学生为 8.323；P=0.159），对农村和城市学生也相似（网络强度：农村学生为 8.500；城市学生为 8.315；P=0.140）。
将 S8（你是否感到焦虑、担忧或不安）作为潜在的干预目标，可能会有效提高高中生的 SWB。
