Objective: This study aimed to investigate the impact of physical activity (PA) on emotional management ability (EMA) in college students and to analyze the chain mediating roles of psychological resilience (PR) and health literacy (HL) in the relationship between PA and EMA.
Methods: Demographic information was collected using a stratified, cluster, and multi-stage sampling method. Data on PA, PR, HL, and EMA among college students were collected using an online questionnaire. A total of 13,590 valid questionnaires were obtained.
Results: A significant positive correlation was found between PA and EMA in college students (r = 0.177, P < 0.01). PR and HL played significant mediating roles in the relationship between PA and EMA. The mediation effect consisted of independent mediation by PR and HL and a chain mediation effect between the two. The values of the independent mediation effects and the chain mediation effect were 0.011, 0.010, and 0.004, respectively. The chain mediation effect was lower than each of the individual mediation effects and showed a statistically significant difference compared to the mediation effect of HL (P < 0.05).
Conclusion: PA significantly enhances college students' EMA through direct effects and a chain mediation pathway involving PR and HL. Coordinated interventions, including regular exercise, PR training, and health education, are recommended to optimize college students' psychological health.

Objective: The study aims to explore how emotional distress is affected by childhood trauma through pathways involving alexithymia and psychological flexibility, and to construct a complete model established on this foundation, which will be provided as a theoretical theory for interventions in college students' mental health.
Methods: Note that 1002 college students were assessed using Childhood Trauma Questionnaire (CTQ), The Depression Anxiety Stress Scale (DASS-21), the 20-item Toronto alexithymia scale (TAS-20), and Acceptance and Action Questionnaire-2nd Edition (AAQ-II). After removing some non-compliant questionnaires, the remaining 885 were used for data analysis.

Hip osteoarthritis (OA) is an increasingly significant public health concern, contributing to substantial economic and societal burden worldwide. Emerging evidence suggests that running may promote cartilage health through optimal joint loading. However, it remains unclear how modifications to running posture, such as altering footstrike patterns or adjusting foot progression angles, affect hip contact forces (HCF).
