Gaming Addiction: Investigation of Motivation to Play PUBG Game

American Psychiatric Association (APA) states that gaming addiction is an irresistible and compulsive drive by a person to be involved in a video game. We are going to find out what is the motive of a PUBG player to play for the game. This involves two hypotheses of the study. One is about whether religiosity level has any relationship with gaming addiction or not. The other is about motivation to play PUBG games. A survey technique was employed to collect the data. The Pearson correlation is -0.192. This value signifies a negative correlation between religion level and gaming addiction. A negative correlation suggests that as one variable (in this case, religion level) increases, the other variable (gaming addiction) tends to decrease, and vice versa. The magnitude of -0.192 indicates that the association is not extremely strong, but it is statistically significant. A strong association was observed between a high cultivation effect and a high motivation level.

Leisure Motivation and Sensation Seeking in Paintball

Within the scope of the research in which the sensation seeking behaviors and leisure motivation of individuals participating in paintball activities were determined, it was aimed to shed light on the relationship between the relevant measurement tools. In this context, Sensation Seeking Scale (SSS) and Leisure Motivation Scale (LMS) scales were utilized in addition to the personal information form. The data obtained from a total of 154 paintball activity participants were analyzed using descriptive statistics followed by independent sample t-test, one-way analysis of variance ANOVA and Pearson correlation tests. Post hoc tests were used for within-group comparisons. The findings show that the participants have high levels of sensation seeking and leisure motivation. On the other hand, it was determined that the sensation seeking and leisure motivation levels of the participants differed with the answers they gave to the questions about gender, age, education level, number of participation in paintball activity, frequency of playing paintball and how many years they have been interested in paintball. At the same time, a low level positive relationship was found between the total scores of the leisure motivation scale and the sensation seeking scale. As a result, it was concluded that participation in activities such as paintball, where the excitement element is at the forefront, has a direct relationship with leisure motivation, and from this point of view, by increasing motivation in leisure, various parameters such as sensation-seeking desire will increase in parallel with this.

ПРІОРИТЕТНІ МОДЕЛІ РОЗВИТКУ ВИЩОЇ ОСВІТИ В СУЧАСНОМУ КИТАЇ

The article emphasizes the importance of applying innovative models of higher education development, which should include: planning, when the strategy is developed by experts or research scientists based on the analysis of the state of education functioning; experience, when the strategy is developed by trial and error with the involvement of the maximum number of pedagogical workers; the relationship between education and economic development. This model should include internal, external, scientific, creative, economic and ideological needs. The model is considered as formed by the means of sign systems, mental analogues (logical) constructs that schematically reflect the educational practice as a whole or its individual fragments. The article analyses the transformation of the development of the modern model of higher education in China in historical retrospect. The First Stage: 1978-1984. During this period, the reform of the country's economic and political system began. The Second Stage: 1985-1992. In 1984-1985, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China successively adopted decisions on the reform of the economic system and the reform of the scientific and technological system. The Third Stage: 1993-1998. In early 1992, Comrade Deng Xiaoping inspected Southern China, after which his keynote speeches, which became the report at the "14th National Congress of the Communist Party of China", were published. The fourth stage: from 1999 to the present. In June 1999, the Party Central Committee and the State Council held the third national conference on higher education "Reforms and Openings". The article states that a multi-component model of the quality of university education should include a large number of factors: the presence of outstanding scientists and scientists who have a significant number of studies and monographs related to the current problems of modern education; the possibility of students achieving certain (creative, non-standard, logical) goals as a result of studying at the university; quality of the diploma and successful employment.

Practical strategies to manage obesity in type 2 diabetes.

The rising phenomenon of obesity, a major risk factor for the development and progression of type 2 diabetes, is a complex and multifaceted issue that requires a comprehensive and coordinated approach to be prevented and managed. Although novel pharmacological measures to combat obesity have achieved unprecedented efficacy, a healthy lifestyle remains essential for the long-term success of any therapeutic intervention. However, this requires a high level of intrinsic motivation and continued behavioural changes in the face of multiple metabolic, psychological and environmental factors promoting weight gain, particularly in the context of type 2 diabetes. This review is intended to provide practical recommendations in the context of a holistic, person-centred approach to weight management, including evidence-based and expert recommendations addressing supportive communication, shared decision-making, as well as nutritional and pharmacological therapeutic approaches to achieve sustained weight loss.

Uptake of COVID-19 vaccine among high-risk urban populations in Southern Thailand using the COM-B model.

The COVID-19 pandemic has imposed unprecedented suffering on social and individual levels worldwide. Vaccines against COVID-19 have been prioritized as a crucial strategy for ending the pandemic as well as minimizing its consequences. This study aimed to determine the uptake of COVID-19 vaccine among high-risk urban populations in Southern Thailand using the Capability, Opportunity, Motivation, and Behavior (COM-B) model. We conducted a web-based cross-sectional study in the Hat Yai district, Songkhla province in Southern Thailand, in September and October 2021. The questionnaire was composed of sections on sociodemographic characteristics, COVID-19 vaccination status, and COM-B constructs. We employed a multivariable logistic regression analysis to determine factors associated with the uptake of the COVID-19 vaccine. We set statistical significance at p < 0.05. In this study, females constituted 54.7% of the total participants (n = 358), and nearly half of the participants (45.8%) were in the younger age group (18-29). Of all the participants, 59.5% (95%CI: 54.2%-64.6%) received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine. Factors associated with the uptake of COVID-19 vaccine and their adjusted OR (95% CI) were being married: 3.59 (2.06-6.24), having a graduate degree: 2.34 (1.38-3.96), gainfully employed: 3.30 (1.91-5.67), having a high level of opportunity: 2.90 (1.48-5.66), and having a high level of motivation: 2.87 (1.17-17.08). The uptake of COVID-19 vaccines was moderate in this population. Moreover, the results showed that the COM-B model is useful in predicting COVID-19 vaccine uptake. The findings of this study could be used to aid future public health interventions in any event of outbreaks similar to COVID-19 disease in Thailand and beyond.

The Interactive Effect of Incentive Salience and Prosocial Motivation on Prosocial Behavior

Charities often use incentives to increase prosocial action. However, charities sometimes downplay these incentives in their messaging (pilot study), possibly to avoid demotivating donors. We challenge this strategy, examining whether increasing the salience of incentives for prosocial action can in fact motivate charitable behavior. Three controlled experiments (N = 2,203 adults) and a field study with an alumni-donation campaign (N = 22,468 adults) found that more (vs. less) salient incentives are more effective at increasing prosocial behavior when prosocial motivation is low (vs. high). This is because more (vs. less) salient incentives increase relative consideration of self-interest (vs. other-regarding) benefits, which is a stronger driver of behavior at low (vs. high) levels of prosocial motivation. By identifying that prosocial motivation moderates the effect of incentive salience on charitable behavior, and by detailing the underlying mechanism, we advance theory and practice on incentive salience, motivation, and charitable giving.

Students’ Motivation and Academic Engagement in Alternative Learning System

Examining the factors that might have led students to continue the ALS program in spite of the difficulties they encountered is worth noting. This study sought to determine the level of motivation of ALS students in terms of intrinsic and extrinsic, the extent of academic engagement of ALS students in terms of timeliness of submission and quality of the output, and the significant relationship between the level of motivation and academic engagement. This was conducted among the one hundred fifteen (115) respondents from the ten (10) ALS Community Learning Centers (CLC) in West II District, Gingoog City, for the School Year 2022-2023. A researcher-made questionnaire, which was pilot-tested to establish internal consistency and reliability, was used. The study utilized statistical measures such as the mean, standard deviation, and Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient (r) to determine the significant relationship between academic engagement and motivation level. Because it directly benefits them and they inspire others to be ambitious and competitive, the study discovered that the respondents had very high levels of both intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. The respondents' high levels of academic engagement were also shown by the results, indicating a significant correlation between academic engagement and motivation. It is concluded that the students have strong internal fulfillment and willingness to engage in learning activities driven by external goals. Continuous guidance and inspiration from the learning facilitator are recommended.
