Symbolic Meaning of Conflict Communication in Presean Cultural Traditions

Conflict is a form of interaction involving two or more people. Conflicts often occur in life that cannot be avoided, but can be minimized. In essence, almost all individuals can be involved in a conflict based on many causal factors. Even the current phenomenon, incidents of mass violence in NTB, especially the city of Mataram. It is often triggered by issues related to ethnic, racial or religious sentiments and often arises from personal problems, resulting in fatalities and injuries. It is feared that violent spectacles and behavior that occur continuously will have a direct or indirect impact on the behavior of the younger generation by imitating culture/violence collectively and massively. This can be seen very easily and brawls between students are rampant. So, it is really necessary to instill understanding in the younger generation regarding culture that can minimize conflict. Culture as a guide to action has traditions that can be used as examples for handling conflict. One cultural tradition that can be used as a reference is the "presean" cultural tradition. In this tradition, it is clearly shown that the fighters (pepadu) carry out scenes of repelling and defeating each other using jalin (rattan) punches. But interestingly, the fighters who were injured did not feel anxious or hold grudges. This research was carried out using descriptive methods and analyzed qualitatively so that the results obtained include, Conflict communication that occurs in presean activities is studied in the form of a communication onion diagram, in the diagram depicted it is explained that communication in presean activities begins with the behavior of each player who involved in presean. This behavior takes various forms based on the motives of each individual. Furthermore, behavior will shape the player's thoughts, and thoughts will give rise to feelings. Generally, according to presean players, thoughts that are always good towards other people will produce good feelings too, so that conflict in the game can be avoided. The factors driving conflict include different characters who want freedom, miscommunication when playing, and different points of view. Meanwhile, the inhibiting factor is cultural customs.

Hungarians in the Eyes of the Romanians. “The Era of Good Feelings”

This article analyzes the positive image of the Hungarians, as it appears in several important Romanian texts prior to the 1848 revolution. The origin of this image can be detected in the works of the Transylvanian School writers. These authors use an important element of the eighteenth‑century Hungarian self‑image, which emphasized the multiethnic character of Hungary and the fact that several peoples coexisted in harmony between its borders. This representation was predicated on the idea of tolerance, inherited from the period of the Josephine reforms. The existence of this benign horizon of expectation in imagological relations between Romanians and Hungarians is highlighted by two important Romanian texts from the first half of the nineteenth century: the travel notes written by the Wallachian boyar Dinicu Golescu (1826), and those by a petty nobleman from Făgăraș, Ion Codru Drăgușanu (1835–1844, published in 1865). Travel accounts are precious sources for imagological study, because they reveal not only what travelers see on their journeys, but also the prejudices and stereotypes they set out with, the images of the Other that permeate their cultural environment. The traditions of Enlightenment philosophy shaped an “era of good feelings” for the Romanians who wrote about Hungarians on the eve of the revolution of 1848, which was noticeable at a discursive level. This view drew its sap from the most general principles of the time but was also supported by the secular practice of cohabitation between the Romanian and Hungarian communities in Transylvania.

The Representation of Character Education in the Movie Sang Prawira Based on Thomas Lickona’s Theory

The film is the favorite literary work teachers adopt to teach students character education. The Sang Prawira movie (2019) contains an educational character message and motivation to reach the dreams of society, especially the young generation. The study of character education representation based on Thomas Lickona's theory has yet to be investigated by previous studies. This study aims to investigate the character education representation based on Thomas Lickona's theory that is strongly represented in Sang Prawira's movie. This study uses the qualitative method using the theory of character education by Thomas Lickona. Based on the study, the researcher found the representation of character education, such as drug education as the moral principle, fortitude in fighting for kindness, positive attitude through hope and support, humility in admitting mistakes, wisdom through the ability to make decisions, loving to god almighty and all humans, hard work to achieve the dreams, the integrity recognition as ethical consistency, the gratitude by realizing obligation, justice in recognizing the responsibilities. In conclusion, the representation of the educational character in this film should be obtained by many Indonesian students because it becomes an example and guideline for them to implement good moral knowledge, behavior, and feeling in broader society.

Efficacy of the “Feel Good - Think Positive”, a school-based positive psychology intervention targeting optimism and hope in children

ABSTRACT This study examined the effectiveness of the ‘Feel Good – Think Positive’, a school-based, multi-component, positive psychology intervention (PPI) for elementary school children, designed to enhance optimism and hope. Participants were 361 elementary school children (8–12 years old, M = 9.91, SD = 1.26, 158 boys and 203 girls), assigned to an intervention group (n = 229) or to a control group (n = 132), who completed several measures at baseline and after the intervention’s completion. Children in the intervention group exhibited increased optimism, hope, diverse coping strategies, social skills, and self-esteem, and decreased pessimism and anxiety, compared to children in the control group who only showed a significant decrease in anxiety. Mediator analyses revealed that gender had a significant effect on anxiety, age on pessimism, emotion-focused coping, seeking social support, and likeability, and parental educational level had no effect. Results are discussed in relevance to positive psychology literature.

Exploring Women’s Psychological and Emotional Experiences in Long-Term Strength Training Adherence

ABSTRACT Background Lack of physical activity is a contributor to mental health issues. Strength training exercise has been an effective intervention that yields physical and psychological benefits. Purpose This qualitative study aimed to explore and identify the perceived factors to maintain long-term strength training programs among women, and to examine the association of these factors with psychological and emotional health. Methods Seventeen face-to-face, semi-structured interviews were conducted with women aged 35–81 (M = 54.6) over a five-month span. The interviews were audio recorded, transcribed verbatim, and manually coded. Data was analyzed using a thematic analysis. Results Most of the women had been strength training for over a decade (82.4%). A primary theme: Emotional Resilience will be highlighted in this study. Additional subthemes include I Feel Good, I Feel Better; Calm Emotions and Reduce Stress, and A Boost in Confidence. Discussion Strength training exercise plays a role to enhance women’s mental focus and emotional resilience needed to cope with adversity. Translation to Health Education Practice Health professionals and policy makers may need to consider strength training as a useful practice that can lead to improvements in self-confidence, quality of life, and physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.

“I Feel Good, I Am a Part of the Community”: Social Responsibility Values and Prosocial Behaviors during Adolescence, and Their Effects on Well-Being

Developing social responsibility values and a sense of community during adolescence is an important step that leads to prosocial behaviors toward others and feeling good about oneself and fellow community members. In line with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals, sustainability is considered in a broader perspective as aimed at the development of human society, improving individual well-being and the quality of life for individuals and communities. In this sense, from a psychology of sustainability perspective, it is important to better understand the meaning of the connections between individual development and communities and the complexity of their relationships. The present study investigates the relationship between social responsibility values and well-being during adolescence, in a sample of 1925 students aged 14 to 20 years, also examining the mediating role of the sense of community and prosocial behaviors. Our mediational analysis suggests that the relation between social responsibility values and well-being is fully mediated by the sense of community and prosocial behaviors. Moreover, the sense of community has a direct effect on prosocial behaviors. This study, thus, provides new evidence and enlarges the wider sustainability science of how values and social participation enhance well-being.

Personalized daily-weekly workout arrangement application "cardio fit"

Having mobile applications has become an indispensable part of our lives in recent years. There are many mobile applications that are already being used in the field of fitness. By using these apps, people can lead a more organized and planned lifestyle. However, many apps fail to offer personalized programs for individuals. This makes mobile applications an inefficient method for users to reach their goals. Our mobile application aims to enable users to reach their fitness level effectively and quickly with a program suitable for their body type, physical characteristics, training goals and exercise preferences. Body mass indexes are calculated based on the body measurements that users enter and their maximum oxygen capacity is determined according to their age, the user chooses their fitness goals, selects the equipment they will train with, and indicates whether they have heart rate monitors. Based on this, the appropriate program is presented to the user. This app is not suitable for users over 50 years old. Users have two goal options for the app: “Feeling Good – Breaking a Sweat” and “Achieving Fitness Level (Firming-Fat Burning).” In the “Reach Fitness Level” option, a tightening program is recommended if the user’s weight is above their ideal weight, while a fat burning program is recommended for users who are significantly above their ideal weight. The Kotlin programming language was used to develop this application, and the Firebase database was used to speed up the development process to ensure the effectiveness of fitness programs, the cardio program was provided by a fitness trainer who is an expert in the field. This app retrieves the necessary user information from the database and provides them with the most suitable fitness program. As a result, users can achieve their goals without needing a fitness trainer or going to the gym.

An Analysis of Politeness Rules in Teacher-Students Classroom Interaction

The practical application of manners or etiquette to avoid offending and to make others feel comfortable is known as politeness. Since it is a culturally determined phenomenon, what is considered to be respectful in one society may occasionally be viewed as extremely impolite or strange in another. This descriptive qualitative study seeks to investigate the rules of politeness by Lakoff (1973) in teacher-students utterances during classroom interaction. However, an English teacher and 36 students of MAN 2 Kota Kediri became the sample of this research. As the data was a speech-shaped, it was obtained through several steps such as observation and data recording then it was analyzed trough data reduction, and data display, data validation, and drawing conclusion. The findings indicated that there were three rules used by the teacher and the students in their utterances namely ‘Do Not Impose’, ‘Give Option’, and ‘Make the Hearer Feel Good’.

LUCK CHAIN LETTERS AS ONE OF THE VARIETIES OF ELECTRONIC CORRESPONDENCE

The aim of the article is to investigate and analyze luck chain letters as one of the types of electronic communication. It describes Internet communication and its main features. The article provides a definition of the term «luck chain letters» (letter of happiness, magic letter, chain letter of happiness) and examines its characteristics, methods of dissemination, and provides examples. The research focuses on letters collected from the Viber messenger. The most common types of these letters are identified, such as «pray and forward the prayer to N number of friends», «we need to gather a million votes to prevent Viber or Facebook from becoming paid», «puppies from a breeding facility need owners (or funds), otherwise they will be put down», «parents of a sick child will receive 10 cents for every letter you send», «the result of a test that you took, which stated that if you don’t forward the invitation to this test to a certain number of people, you will experience failure for several years», «аmiraculous remedy from the market that guarantees a cure for the most common ailment», «in honor of their birthday/opening, a gift from a well-known brand/company». The following manipulative tactics are identified in these letters: «If you love, then...», «Exploiting parental instinct», «Don’t be an outcast», and activating a situation of psychosis with a «lack of time» indicator. Equally important is the example of appealing to «good feelings» to foster intimacy in the communicative space between the sender and recipient. In the future, there are plans to further examine happiness letters (in messengers, social networks, email, blogs), classify them, identify common features, and highlight the most prevalent manipulative tactics. This may involve analyzing the communication strategies used in such letters and studying their impact on recipients, particularly in terms of perception, reactions, and dissemination methods. Analyzing happiness letters will contribute to a better understanding of manipulations and provide protection against harmful content that may be present in such letters.

Feasibility and metabolic effects of a 5:2 fasting intervention in women with breast cancer during radiotherapy

PurposeObesity and insulin resistance appear to worsen prognosis of breast cancer patients. We conducted a feasibility study to test a 5:2 fasting regime in breast cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. The intervention was rated as beneficial if it would be able to reduce fat mass while significantly improving insulin sensitivity.MethodsA total of 13 non-metastatic breast cancer patients were recruited and instructed to completely abstain from food on two non-consecutive days (minimum 24 h) per week during radiotherapy. Body composition was measured weekly by bioimpedance analysis. Blood parameters were assessed before and at the end of radiotherapy. The product of triglycerides and glucose was used as a proxy for insulin sensitivity. A control group on an unspecified standard diet was assigned by propensity score matching.ResultsA total of twelve patients completed the study. Three patients reported side effects during fasting which were mild (grade 1). Two patients reported feeling bad while fasting, whereas five had a generally good or very good feeling. The fasting group experienced an average decrease of approximately 200 g body mass (p < 0.0001), 200 g (p = 0.002) fat mass and 100 g muscle mass (p = 0.047) per week, resulting in absolute reductions of 2.45 ± 1.19 kg body mass, 1.5 ± 1.6 kg fat mass and 0.7 ± 0.4 kg muscle mass. There was no improvement in insulin sensitivity and other markers of metabolic health except for gamma-glutamyltransferase which decreased by -7 ± 8 U/l. There was also no indication that 5:2 fasting protected against acute skin toxicity.Conclusions5:2 fasting is safe and feasible for breast cancer patients during radiotherapy and suitable to significantly reduce fat mass, but beneficial metabolic effects could not be confirmed. To improve these results, future studies could combine 5:2 fasting with carbohydrate restriction, increased protein intake and/or exercise.Trial registrationRegistered on ClinicalTrials.gov under NCT05861362 on May 12, 2023 (retrospectively registered; https://clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/show/NCT05861362).

Searching for Black Santa: The Contested History of an American Holiday Tradition

ABSTRACT This article explores the contested history and complex politics of the Black Santa in the United States from the antebellum period to the present day. For white journalists and entertainers during the nineteenth and early twentieth century, the blackface Santa reinforced white dominance and the supposed inferiority of Black people. From the 1910s into the 1950s, Black educators and civic reformers saw the ‘Negro Santa Claus’ as a way of elevating Black self-esteem and countering racist versions of the character. For some activists and business leaders, the ‘Civil Rights Santa’ that emerged in parallel with the postwar African American freedom struggle could promote ‘good interracial feelings in the community’, and for others he belonged on the frontlines of the battle for racial equality. The Black Power Santa or ‘Soul Santa’ who came in his wake served as a symbol of Black cultural pride and economic self-determination. Finally, the modern Black Santa works to reconcile the more confrontational politics of earlier iterations with a celebration of American multiracialism and corporate responsibility. Across time and space, these different versions of the Black Santa embody competing and, at times, contradictory racial ideologies and representational politics, providing an important window into the relationship between civil rights, cultural politics, and consumer capitalism in the modern United States.

Second Language Learners’ Behavioral, Cognitive, and Emotional Attitudes Toward the Language and Their Second Language Competencies

This paper aimed to determine the respondents’ attitudes toward English language learning and how these affect the level of their second language competencies utilizing a descriptive-correlational method of research. Three hundred eight five (385) respondents from the different public and private Senior High Schools answered a researcher-made questionnaire that underwent reliability testing and validation. The findings revealed that the respondents have positive behavioral, cognitive and emotional attitudes toward English language learning and they have good second language competencies in terms of reading, writing, speaking, listening and viewing. Thus, it was also found that positive behavioral, cognitive and emotional attitudes toward English language learning resulted to good level second language competencies of the senior high school students. Good attitudes and feelings are needed to raise the efficiency of the students in language learning classes. The result made the researcher suggest that language teachers may continuously enhance the positive attitudes and perceptions of the students toward the language to further improve their macro-skills.

S12-4 Feasibility evaluation of the Move Well, Feel Good movement behaviours intervention

Abstract Purpose Improving children’s motor competence through school-based physical activity interventions may be a mechanism for promoting positive mental health through psychosocial factors. Move Well, Feel Good (MWFG) is a such an intervention that was co-designed with children, class teachers, physical education (PE) teachers, and school leaders. This presentation describes the feasibility evaluation of MWFG. Methods Five primary schools were recruited from a low socioeconomic status community in northwest England. A 10-week intervention was co-designed which aimed to enhance children’s mental health through motor competence and psychosocial development. The core delivery of the programme involved one PE lesson per week devoted to development of locomotor, object control, and stability skills. This was supplemented by optional recess and home activities, and by non-PE curricular activities. Teachers were asked to record details of each MWFG session taught, and feasibility was evaluated against pre-defined criteria using surveys, interviews (teachers), and participatory focus groups (children). Pre- and post-intervention assessments of motor competence, mental health, wellbeing, psychosocial factors, and 24-hour movement behaviours were also completed. Results The 5 schools represented 83% of the target number of schools and 108 children consented (43% of target). PE and class teachers were recruited in all schools (100% of target). Intervention dose was reflected by 76% of scheduled PE lessons being delivered. Adherence was strong with &amp;gt;85% of children attending ≥75% of lessons. Positive indicators of acceptability were provided by 86% of children, 83% of PE teachers, and 90% of class teachers. Teachers commented on the children’s positive engagement irrespective of ability, the quality of resources provided, and the challenges of competing demands for curriculum time and spaces to deliver MWFG. The data collection methods were deemed acceptable by 91% of children and 80% of class teachers, and children spoke positively about participating in the data collection. Secondary outcome data collection was completed by 87%-100% of children, with a 0%-6% attrition rate at post-intervention. Descriptive analysis revealed favourable changes in motor competence and mental health. Conclusions MWFG was deemed to be feasible to develop further into a pilot trial, with improved school and child recruitment strategies warranted.

S12-1 School-based interventions to promote physical activity amongst children and adolescents

Abstract Background Regular physical activity (PA) is associated with many benefits for physiological and mental wellbeing in children and adolescents. Despite this, many children and adolescents are failing to meet current PA guidelines. Given the age-related declines in PA as children move into adolescence, and then adulthood, the development of interventions to promote PA in this population is important. Schools have been identified as a key setting for the promotion of health-related behaviours, and young people spend a significant proportion of their waking day within the school setting. Aim This symposium will engage researchers, practitioners, health care professionals and policy makers to discuss novel school-based interventions. The objectives of this symposium are to: (1) Disseminate the findings of school-based interventions across a number of countries (France, Ireland, United Kingdom, Spain); (2) Highlight cross-cultural challenges in the development and evaluation of school-based interventions, and (3) Outline how co-design and Patient and Public Involvement (PPI) have been utilised in the development of school-based interventions. Symposia presentations 1. The effectiveness of a peer-led school-based walking intervention on adolescent girls’ physical activity: the Walking In ScHools (WISH) study. This presentation will highlight findings from the first fully powered trial to investigate the effectiveness of a peer-led brisk walking intervention in adolescent girls, including primary and secondary outcome data, and process evaluation measures. 2. School-based physical activity promotion in a cross-cultural context: interventions from France and Spain. This presentation will highlight key learnings on how best to connect cross-cultural educational contexts for the promotion of physical activity and discuss the development of a cross-cultural intervention guide. 3. Co-production of the Move Well, Feel Good movement behaviours intervention. This presentation will describe the feasibility evaluation of the Move Well, Feel Good intervention. The Move Well, Feel Good intervention was developed using a co-design approach, and aims to enhance children’s mental health through motor competence and psychosocial development. 4. Physical activity trends among Second-level Active School Flag programme 2019-2021. This presentation will evaluate the impact of the Active School Flag programme and outline changes in physical activity levels over a three-year period.

Relapse in Substance Use Disorder and Its Relation to Stigma: An Outpatient Based Cross Sectional Study

Background: One of the most crucial but discouraging features of the outcome of substance use disorder is relapse. The factors predicting this event must be understood to be considered for future interventions.Aim: This study aimed to assess factors related to relapse and stigma among patients with substance use disorder.Methods: A sample of 53 relapsed patients were recruited from the outpatient clinic of the addiction unit at Mansoura university hospital. Tools of data collection: Structured questionnaires were utilized. It included 3 parts. Part I: to assess socio-demographic characteristics. Part 2: Questionnaire about factors related to relapse among substance use disorder patients. Part 3: the perceived stigma of substance abuse scale.Results: It was found that relapse dimensions represented from the greatest to the lowest mean score as the following: unpleasant emotions, craving, good feelings, disruption of relationship, physical pain, peer pressure, and family problems, which was estimated as the following; 12.81±3.52, 5.94±3.15, 4.36±2.38, 10.21±5.45, 14.23±4.19, 11.00±4.00, 4.21±1.47, 10.13±3.06. A statistically significant positive correlation between stigma score and (craving, loss of control, peer pressure, pleased emotions, non-pleased emotions, physical pain, and disturbed relationship) domains of relapse scale.Conclusion: It was concluded that perceived stigma of patients with substance use disorder was one of the risk factors predicting relapse in these patients, also there was a significant positive correlation between all dimensions of relapse and some socio-demographic and clinical characteristics such as single marital status, unemployment, in debt economic status, and previous admission.Recommendation: Developing future preventive programs for protection against factors related to relapse including stigma.

FTP4.4 Feel Good Factor: Simple initiatives to improve team morale and mental wellbeing in the surgical workplace

Abstract Aims Healthcare professionals are vulnerable to stress and burnout. NICE guidelines on mental wellbeing in the workplace first recommend organisational-level approaches followed by individual approaches. Since December 2019, we have implemented monthly Feel Good Factor meetings to promote a culture of appreciation and improve moral in our surgical department. Previously, we found these meetings had a great impact on trainees feeling acknowledged and included, with no time taken off work due to mental health reasons for 20 months. However, participation in these meetings plateaued. Therefore we implemented a Feel Good Factor nomination box to improve involvement. Methods Everyone in the surgical department is encouraged to nominate colleagues who they have enjoyed working with. Previously, nominations were sent via messages or email. Since December 2022, we have implemented a physical box with nomination slips that are placed in every communal area of the surgical department. The surgical team is reminded once a month about the upcoming Feel Good Factor Meeting. Results Prior to the implementation of the Feel Good Factor box, the average number of nominations was 17.15 per month. Since the implementation, the average number of nominations has been 42 per month, an increase to over 240%. Conclusion Mental wellbeing should be a priority in the workplace. Our Feel Good Factor initiative has shown much success over 3 years. The simple implementation of a nomination box has greatly increased the level participation throughout the department. We believe this can be implemented in other departments to encourage a positive work environment.

Co-Creation of a School-Based Motor Competence and Mental Health Intervention: Move Well, Feel Good.

Low motor competence (MC) and inhibited psychosocial development are associated with mental health difficulties. Improving children's MC through school-based physical activity interventions emphasising psychosocial development may therefore be a mechanism for promoting positive mental health. This study describes and provides reflective insights into the co-creation of 'Move Well Feel Good', a primary school physical activity intervention to improve children's MC and mental health. Class teachers, school leaders, physical activity specialists, and children (aged 8-9 years) participated in a series of co-creation workshops. Stakeholders' knowledge and experiences were integrated with existing research evidence using creative methods (e.g., post-it note tasks, worksheets, and drawings) to facilitate discussion. The co-creation process culminated in stakeholder consensus voting for one of three proposed intervention ideas. Children cited physical and mental health benefits, enjoyment with friends, and high perceived competence as motives for being physically active. Opportunities to develop MC across the different segments of the school day were identified by adult stakeholders, who perceived children's lack of resilience, an overloaded curriculum, and poor parental support for physical activity as barriers to intervention implementation. The chosen intervention idea received six out of a possible twelve votes. Co-creation projects are specific to the contexts in which they are implemented. This study reinforces the complex nature of school-based intervention development and highlights the value of engaging with stakeholders in co-creation processes.

Engaging in the good with technology: a framework for examining positive technology use.

The focus on the negative side of technology has become a prominent factor in the understanding of the interactions between humans and technology. However, there is a positive side to technology use that has been less investigated in scientific research. Well-being researchers have determined that it is not just the absence of negative emotions or experiences, but rather the presence and frequency of positive ones that matter most. Therefore, despite the scarcity of research on the positive side of technology, the present conceptual paper focuses on how technology may be used for the good to produce psychological benefits (e.g., greater happiness, lower loneliness, higher peer endorsement). Based on existing literature, we posit at least three directions for good interactions with technology: (1) "seeing good" by focusing on positive visual cues through technology use; (2) "feeling good" by focusing on good feelings that arise from technology use; and (3) "doing good" by focusing on positive actions that can be enacted via technology use. Based on the synthesis of these three components, we propose a framework for technology laden engagement in the good, dubbed as, the Engagement in the Good with Technology (EGT) Framework. Through this framework, we explain how these three distinct aspects of seeing, feeling, and doing good can co-occur and be interrelated, and in turn potentially lead to upward spirals of positive outcomes.

Mediating role of work stressors between auditor knowledge-sharing activities and job satisfaction in Indonesian small audit firms

Audit businesses encourage their auditors to conduct remote audits during the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, auditors from small audit firms exchange their skills, viewpoints, and experiences through internet forums. The purpose of this study is to investigate how auditors’ knowledge-sharing activities through a social media community based on the reciprocity standard can prevent stress caused by work stressors, which affect their job satisfaction. The relationship between knowledge-sharing activities, work stressors, and job satisfaction was examined using the partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) method. This survey includes 151 auditors from 27 Indonesian small audit firms. The findings revealed that active involvement in knowledge sharing activities through social media groups boosts auditor motivation by raising good feelings when confronted with work conflict (β = 0.334, p &amp;amp;lt; 0.001) and lowering negative emotions when confronted with work ambiguity (β = –0.407, p &amp;amp;lt; 0.001) and work overload (β = –0.372, p &amp;amp;lt; 0.001). However, only minimizing the negative feelings of work ambiguity (β = –0.331, p &amp;amp;lt; 0.001) and work overload (β = –0.277, p &amp;amp;lt; 0.001) can improve job satisfaction. Furthermore, work ambiguity (β = 0.135, p &amp;amp;lt; 0.001) and overload (β = 0.103, p &amp;amp;lt; 0.01) totally mediate the association between knowledge–sharing activities and auditor job satisfaction. Auditors set the norm for social media reciprocity by sharing their knowledge and expertise with others. As a result, the auditor can reduce negative emotions when facing hindrance stressors, thereby increasing job satisfaction.
