Abstract

Psychological poverty refers to a series of negative changes in personality characteristics and mental health caused by economic poverty and other reasons, such as mental confusion and psychological confusion. In order to explore the current situation and influencing factors of farmers' psychological poverty, this study adopts the method of field investigation, and goes deep into the poverty-stricken rural areas of China, Wulian Town, Sichuan Province, for investigation. Through questionnaire design, field research, case interviews and data processing, it is concluded that peasants' conservative and dependent psychology is more serious, and there exist certain anxiety and inferiority psychology. It is also verified that the older the age is, the stronger the psychological poverty is, and the four factors, namely, cultural level, income, education level of children, and satisfaction degree of village committee governance, are negatively related to psychological poverty. Based on this result, this paper also puts forward corresponding countermeasures and suggestions to solve the problem of farmers' psychological poverty.
