Abstract

This paper presents an in‐depth analysis and research on the identification of psychological crisis signals of college students using the optimized Dufferin equation. The early warning index system of college students’ psychological crisis was established and tested on 300 junior college students, and the early warning system of college students’ psychological crisis was established by using structural equation model, focusing on the mediating effect of coping mode between stress source and stress response and the mediating effect of stress source between social support and stress response. At the same time, the characteristics of psychological crises among college students of different genders and grades were compared and analyzed. To address the shortcomings of the classical Dufferin equation with limited noise immunity, the use of a higher‐order double‐coupled Dufferin system was further improved. A detection model based on the higher‐order double‐coupled system was established, and its feasibility was verified by the psychological crisis signal. The geometric features of the phase trajectory are adopted as the basis for judging the system state, which greatly reduces the computational effort. Based on defining the conceptual connotation of college students’ psychological crisis behavior system, the vulnerability of college students’ psychological crisis behavior system is interpreted from the perspective of system self‐organization theory, and the vulnerability of college students’ psychological crisis behavior is mainly expressed in latent and manifest states, and its vulnerability transformation is a self‐organization process. A questionnaire survey was conducted for ordinary college students to examine the performance of college students’ vulnerability state of the subject who endured college students’ psychological crisis behavior, and it was concluded that most college students appear to be normal and healthy on the surface, but college students’ vulnerability is in an uncertain state of intermediate transition.
