Fuzzy Decision-Making and Delayed Introspection:A Qualitative Study on the Dropout Behavior of Rural Adolescents
In the process of the Chinese path to modernization,efforts must be made to promote the common prosperity of all people.The key lies in the countryside,and the hope lies in the revitalization of the countryside.But the problem of hollowing out of rural talents and the problem of"educational poverty"caused by rural youth who have dropped out of school and then gone out to work are more prominent.From the perspectives of psychology and educational sociology,the prospect theory and regret theory are introduced,and phenomenological research methods are used to investigate the decision-making mechanism of rural youth's dropout and the introspection mechanism after going out to work.It is found that there are four stages of decision-making and introspection:first,fuzzy decision-making based on the prospect judgment in the uncertain environment;second,profit and loss assessment based on confirmatory collision between ideals and reality;third,delayed introspection caused by regret aversion based on result comparison;and fourth,manifested as active construction of educational views and inter-generational realization of introspective growth.It is suggested to carry out precise prevention and control,strengthen the precise governance of rural"educational poverty",leverage the advantages of vocational education accessibility,and strive to achieve"everyone can succeed".Through"exogenous and endogenous growth",the human resources foundation of rural revitalization can be consolidated.
