Chinese undergraduates' cognition of regret

Regret means that he (or she) causes a feeling of remorse after having done wrong things. The researchers have found regret makes more pains than the wrong thing itself. The study explores Chinese undergraduates’ cognition of regret by questionnaire (N=360), in which shows that their regret consists in irrational management of study time, the low-level skill study, unsuccessful love affair and disharmonic personnel relation. Regret behaviors are close correlation with being at loss about their development of future. The result suggests mentality education and the guidance of undergraduates’ career are very important and necessary in the higher education.
