Abstract

This study aims to explore the character and character and ethical education dimension in the educational methods of pro-social behavior for college students based on psychological intervention, to deepen our understanding of the role of psychological intervention in character and character and ethical education and its promotion of pro-social behavior among college students, and to construct and validate the corresponding educational method dimensions. The study systematically reviews relevant theories and research from both domestic and international sources, and combines empirical research (including questionnaires, experiments, and observations) to collect data on the character and moral concepts and behaviors of college students before and after they receive psychological intervention. Through qualitative analysis, the study provides an in-depth examination of these data. The findings indicate that the pro-social behavior of college students is characterized by voluntariness, diversity, and sustainability, which are crucial for their personal development (such as the cultivation of social responsibility and civic awareness, and the enhancement of teamwork skills) and social progress. Empirical and qualitative analyses confirm that psychological intervention significantly promotes pro-social behavior among college students and enhances the effectiveness of character and character and ethical education. Based on these findings, this study constructs and validates a method for educating college students' pro-social behavior from the perspective of character and character and ethical education, based on psychological intervention, proving its feasibility, effectiveness, and sustainability.
