The healthy and happy human living revolves around establishing and maintaining stable relationships with each other. The life experiences pose whether these meaningful relationships are considered important for the well-being of individuals and communities. People constantly strive for cordial interactions with others, on one side, to avoid psycho-physiological damages such as loneliness and disapproval from others and on the other side, to shape their life meaningfully and grow purposefully. Empathy has been considered a vital component of one’s social cognition that contributes to one’s ability to understand and respond adaptively to others’ emotions that promotes prosocial behaviour in interpersonal relationships and communications. Empathy enhances cognitive abilities and emotional stability thus promoting well being in interpersonal relationships (Preston & de Wall, 2002). The human qualities, for instance, attraction, love, kinship, friendship, jealousy, betrayal, forgiveness, communication, conflict and aggression are either positively or negatively connected to human relationship domain and vital for the wellbeing at all levels. And, for upholding wellbeing and interpersonal relationships, the predominant and promising dynamic seems to be the psychological component of empathy. The present presentation pungently brings out the conceptual details on the concept of empathy along with its imperative role in enhancing interpersonal affinity or relationships in enhancing wellbeing in general. This paper is presented to establish that empathy enhances the interpersonal relationship and well-being across the life span.
人类健康快乐的生活围绕着建立和保持稳定的人际关系。生活经验表明，这些有意义的关系是否对个人和社区的福祉很重要。人们不断地努力与他人进行亲切的互动，一方面是为了避免心理上的伤害，如孤独和他人的不赞成，另一方面是为了有意义地塑造自己的生活，有目的地成长。移情被认为是社会认知的重要组成部分，它有助于一个人理解和适应他人情绪的能力，从而促进人际关系和沟通中的亲社会行为。同理心可以增强认知能力和情绪稳定性，从而促进人际关系的健康发展(Preston & de Wall, 2002)。人类的品质，例如吸引力、爱、亲情、友谊、嫉妒、背叛、宽恕、沟通、冲突和侵略，都与人类关系领域有积极或消极的联系，对各个层面的幸福都至关重要。而且，为了维护幸福和人际关系，主要的和有前途的动力似乎是移情的心理组成部分。本报告尖锐地提出了移情概念的概念细节，以及它在增强人际亲和力或关系方面的重要作用。本研究旨在证明共情能在人的一生中提升人际关系与幸福感。

Wellbeing is a multidimensional practical concept that captures a mix of people’s life circumstances. Categorically wellbeing may be divided into three divisions: physical, mental and social wellbeing. As a construct, it may also be perceived as objective wellbeing (relates to material attributes like the amount of wealth, provision of education and health care and social infrastructure) and subjective wellbeing (how people think and feel about their quality of life). In both, the dimension Environment, more specifically the natural environment plays an important key role- both negative and positive. Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), [1] postulates the ecosystem approach as a means of understanding the roles played by land, water and living resources of the environment (ecological resources) in the life of people as well as integrated management of cultural and biological diversity of the land and the people. Ecosystems are defined as the functional units that are in continual dynamic and complex interaction among plants, animals, water bodies, forest, climate and all other non-living issues in the environment. Ecosystem services are the benefits that people are supposed to or actually obtain from the ecosystem. These inter-phase interactional dynamics is the guiding principle of Ecopsychiatry - where environmental issues influence positively or negatively on the mental health of the people (individual) and the community (collective). Or in other words the impact of environmental specificity (of normal or abnormal state) on the mental health and wellbeing (as also physical and spiritual) of the community or individual. The following inter-connected Eco-psychiatric issues that negatively impacted human wellbeing (both physical and mental) are discussed:Anthropogenic factors and its impact on population density, land distribution, agricultural production, food insecurity and poverty.Attempts to enhance the crop production in a climatic uncertainty and saline field by pesticide over/incorrect -use - resultant in a high incidence of mortality and morbidity (accidental and deliberate self-harm/suicide) of human and pesticide contamination of the environment.Nutritional deficiency, animal health and livestock: salinization of water impacted the availability of freshwater fish species, and thus depriving the poor of their protein food source and adversely impacting the income and family integrity.Risk factors in human-animal conflicts (tiger/ crocodile/snake attacks) and resultant mortality and morbidity: forest exploration for livelihood measures (fishing, timber-honey-crab-collection) leading to death, family disruption, poverty and overuse of eco-resources.Sea-level change and its impact on environment and wellbeing: the health of human, animals, mangrove vegetation, repeated storm and flood, inundation of salt water in agricultural field (high salinity), flood and destruction of life and property is a recurrent event.Land erosion and destru
幸福是一个多维度的实用概念，它捕捉了人们生活环境的混合。幸福可以分为三部分:身体健康、精神健康和社会健康。作为一种结构，它也可以被视为客观幸福(与财富数量、教育、医疗保健和社会基础设施等物质属性有关)和主观幸福(人们如何思考和感受自己的生活质量)。在这两个维度中，环境，更具体地说，自然环境起着重要的关键作用——无论是消极的还是积极的。《生物多样性公约》(Convention on Biological Diversity, CBD)[1]将生态系统方法作为理解土地、水和环境生物资源(生态资源)在人类生活中的作用，以及对土地和人的文化和生物多样性进行综合管理的一种手段。生态系统被定义为植物、动物、水体、森林、气候和环境中所有其他非生物问题之间持续动态和复杂相互作用的功能单元。生态系统服务是指人们应该或实际上从生态系统中获得的利益。这些阶段间相互作用的动态是生态精神病学的指导原则——环境问题对人们(个人)和社区(集体)的心理健康产生积极或消极的影响。或者换句话说，环境特异性(正常或异常状态)对社区或个人的心理健康和福祉(以及身体和精神)的影响。本文讨论了以下相互关联的负面影响人类身心健康的生态精神病学问题:人为因素及其对人口密度、土地分布、农业生产、粮食不安全和贫困的影响。试图在气候不确定和盐碱地通过过度/不正确使用农药来提高作物产量-导致人类和农药污染环境的高死亡率和发病率(意外和故意自残/自杀)。营养缺乏、动物健康和牲畜:水的盐碱化影响了淡水鱼种类的供应，从而剥夺了穷人的蛋白质食物来源，并对收入和家庭完整性产生不利影响。人兽冲突(老虎/鳄鱼/蛇袭击)及其造成的死亡率和发病率的危险因素:为生计措施(捕鱼、木材-蜂蜜-螃蟹采集)而进行森林勘探，导致死亡、家庭破裂、贫困和过度使用生态资源。海平面变化及其对环境和福祉的影响:人类、动物、红树林植被的健康、反复出现的风暴和洪水、农田盐水泛滥(高盐度)、洪水以及对生命和财产的破坏是经常发生的事件。土地侵蚀和岛屿破坏以及人口的内外移徙和流离失所。气候变化及其对农业、粮食生产、生态资源和健康的影响以及病媒和水媒疾病的出现。与飓风有关的灾害及其对环境和人口健康的公众/动物(老虎)健康影响。

The North-East of India has been a hotly debated territory of India with voices coming up from different states such as Nagaland, Manipur and Assam demanding separate nations for themselves. These separatist agitations have got further confounded with a constant influx of Muslim immigrants from Bangladesh which began to impinge on the local cultural identities and demographics. This resulted in a prolonged militancy coupled with agitations yielding space for the Pakistani/Sri Lanka/Bangladesh based militants to infiltrate into India through porous borders of the North East and engage some disgruntled ultra outfits in the North East to wage a battle against India. In fact, Naga agitation for separate country bears a lot of similarity with the LTTE’s struggle for separate Eelam in Sri Lanka. Both have a lot of diaspora support and web-based campaign movements (Maya Ranganathan, 2010: 127-149). All these developments have complicated the prospects of the economic and industrial growth in this region. This resulted in the staggering illiteracy and unemployment for over a decade. Towards addressing the problems of the region, the government of India has taken a political decision to establish as many as seven central universities under its direct funding to ensure that the region gets the best education which might contribute further for enhanced employment opportunities in the region. Also, various department under Assam Government such as the Tourism Department, Health Department, Education Department, Social welfare Department etc has been provided with e-governance facilities for the users. The study assumes significance from the point of view that how far the e-services of various departments leads to the sustainable growth of the state and what is the role of media, government and educational institutes to improve the sustainable growth of the states through e-services.

Nowadays in India we see many incidents of mob lynching taking place and that too on another level. Gathering together and turning it into mob lynching is kind of abnormal behaviour. The other aspect of mob lynching is antisocial behaviour. Such behaviour of person/people is seen due to the influence of the Group's ideas, thoughts. The reason is that the way group thinks about a particular issue same is perceived by each individual/ civilian of the group without proper knowledge and thus without awareness or unconsciously they like to perform and turned out to be a terrifying, vulnerable behaviour. It does mean that the influence of Groups ideas leads to abnormal behaviour and also incidents like khairlalji, Massacre in Dhule are responsible for creating terror, insecurity, suspicious, doubtful environment which is disturbing not only the mental health but also the social health of people such incidents create castism and smashes social integrity this creates a threat to mankind.In the present research study, the total sample of 120 college students of Jalgaon city is selected using simple random sampling technique. The tools used for the research for measuring Mob lynching behaviour a self-made Mob lynching behaviour test is used. A 2x2 factorial design is used.

The impact of social media in the twenty-first century is huge and extensive. Its role is simply impossible to ignore especially with reference to the young people or adolescents. According to the Merriam Webster Dictionary, bullying is an aggressive behaviour that seeks to control, harm or threaten others. Cyber-bullying refers to bullying or harassment that takes place in the virtual world such as social networking sites, emails etc., using digital devices like computer, cell-phone and so on. With the onset of technology and the rise of social media, children and adolescents are bringing their bullies home with them. There is no safe zone anymore as this form of bullying can happen at any time, anyplace and any situation.The present study was undertaken to find out the association between cyber-bullying and mental health issues of adolescents. In order to achieve this objective, the investigators used a descriptive survey method of research. The population for the study has been defined as the eleventh and twelfth-grade students. The sample comprised of 100 students (50 male and 50 female students), which was selected with the help of incidental sampling technique. Questionnaires were used for data collection. Pearson’s Product Moment Correlation was used to find out the relationship (if any) between the variables and Students’ t-test was used to find the gender difference (if any) on the variables mentioned.The study reveals that the majority of the student population have been victims or have witnessed cyberbullying and have been involved in bullying others. There is a strong association between cyberbullying and degrading mental health of adolescents. The findings and the implications of the study have been discussed in the paper.

India, consisting of 16 percent of world population subsists only on 2.4 percent land resources. Agriculture is the only source of livelihood to the two third of the population which gives employment to 57 percent of the workforce. Agriculture in India is often regarded as gambling with monsoons, because of its almost exclusive dependency on precipitation from monsoons. The failure of monsoons leading to a series of droughts, lack of better prices, exploitation by middlemen, and Gene Modified (GM) seed companies who are selling expensive cotton seeds and fertilizers, all of which have led to a series of suicides committed by farmers across India. Farmers' suicides are a complex phenomenon. Since the 1990s farmer suicides in India have made headlines. The journalist Palagummi Sainath highlighted that 17,500 farmers were suicides between 2002 to 2006. The government figures show 14,000 farmers took their own lives in 2011. The total number of farmers’ suicides crossed 3 lakh mark till in 2014. That most suicides occurred in the states of Andhra Pradesh, Maharashtra, Karnataka, Kerala and Punjab. This study seeks to investigate news items on farmers’ suicides in the Indian newspapers. A quantitative content analysis was adopted in this research. This study used two English dailies i.e. The Hindu and The New Indian Express and two Telugu dailies i.e. Eenadu and Andhrajyothi were taken for analysis. It is not a random sample. In this, a purposive sample method was adopted. The selection time period was one year i.e. from January 1, 2015, to December 31, 2015. Keeping in view ten subject categories have been mainly identified for this research.
