Research on the Integration Path of Ideological and Political Education, College Students’ Psychology, and Innovation and Entrepreneurship Education under the Guidance of Cultural Confidence in Universities
Main Article Content
Abstract
The independent operation of ideological and political education, mental health education, and innovation and entrepreneurship education in universities leads to fragmented educational goals and weak collaborative effects. To address this problem, this study constructs a three-dimensional integrated theoretical framework guided by cultural confidence and designs an operational path of “curriculum integration-practical linkage-faculty collaboration.” The framework integrates value guidance, psychological development, and practical innovation into a unified education system. A quasi-experimental design, action research, and mixed-methods evaluation are used for empirical testing. The results show that students in the experimental group achieved significantly greater improvement in cultural confidence than those in the control group, with an effect size of 41.7%. Their psychological resilience and innovation efficacy also improved substantially, and innovation performance in practical projects was significantly higher. The findings demonstrate that the proposed integrated path can effectively address educational fragmentation and promote coordinated development of value identity, psychological quality, and innovation competence in higher education.
