Research on the application of digital music in mental health education in colleges and universities

The interdisciplinary study of mental health education and digital music in colleges and universities is an indispensable part of China’s education discipline system. To solve the current problems of mental health education in colleges and universities, this paper analyzes the promotion role of digital music and the development of mental health in colleges and universities. The hierarchical analysis method is used to build a mental health assessment index system in colleges and universities. Using the VPMCD method, based on the intrinsic relationship between different index characteristics, a digital music-based psychological health assessment model for colleges and universities is established to assess the psychological health problems of college students. According to the psychological assessment results, the listening psychological intervention method is used to psychologically intervene with students. And by calculating the main melody of digital music materials, the type of music intervention materials used was determined. Experimental results: The listening psychological intervention method successfully led to the slow recovery of students with severe and moderate mental health problems and the complete recovery of students with mild psychological problems. 11 students (9.2% of the total) were completely cured of their psychological problems among the freshmen students in college A. The number of students who reduced their psychological problems was 86, accounting for 81.1% of the total. 26 students, accounting for 32.3% of the total, were completely cured of their psychological problems in their sophomore year at College A. The number of students who reduced their psychological problems was 56, accounting for 51.3% of the total. It proves that: digital music plays a supplementary role in college mental health education and proposes a new way of implementation for college mental health education. It promotes the diversified development of mental health education in colleges and universities as well as the cultivation of positive psychological qualities of college students and guides them to grow up positively and healthily.
