Abstract Objective To investigate the status of loneliness, anxiety and coping style in military university freshmen, and to explore relationship between loneliness, anxiety and coping style, so as to provide the data for mental health education in military university freshmen.Methods A cross sectional study was carried out including 674 freshmen in a military university selected by a cluster sampling method. Questionnaires including general information and UCLA loneliness scale (UCLALS), self-rating anxiety scale (SAS) and coping style questionnaire (CSQ) were used to investigate.Results The scores of UCLALS and SAS for freshmen are 32.8±9.40 and 36.5±8.74 respectively. Scores of dimensions (problem solving, feel guilt, seeking for help, fantasy, retreat, rationalization) of coping styles were 0.85, 0.67, 0.73, 0.37, 0.41 and 0.34 respectively. The scores of UCLALS, SAS and CSQ in freshmen were correlation with many factors such as: different entrance sources, whether being a student cadre or not, whether from the one-child family or not, with different self-assessment of personality. Scores of SAS and UCLALS were positively correlated with the dimensionalities of self-accusation, fantasy, shrinking and rationalization(P＜0.01), the correlation coefficients of SAS score with the dimensionalities were 0.311, 0.367, 0.309, and 0.249 respectively, and those of UCLALS were 0.328, 0.397, 0.404, and 0.339 respectively. Scores of SAS and UCLALS were negatively correlated with the dimensionalities of problems solving, seeking help(P＜0.01), the correlation coefficients of SAS score were -0.391 and -0.302, and those of UCLALS were -0.433, and -0.413.Conclusion Although the scores of SAS and UCLALS of freshmen in military university are better than those of general population, many factors are associated with freshmen's scores of UCLALS, SAS and CSQ, more attentions should be paid to mental health status of military freshmen.
