Factors Of Self-determination Research Articles

История групповых культурных прав и их защиты: теоретические коллизии международного права

The issues of the international legal protection system have become particularly acute in recent years, since the existing practice has shown a lack of effectiveness and revealed cardinal shortcomings in the ability of the international community to prevent human rights violations leading to military conflicts and social explosions. The article shows by historical examples that the liberal-individualistic approach to the definition of human rights has led to the fragmentation of international legal acts, the absence of generally recognized criteria for the systematization of human rights, including those of a collective nature. It is proposed to create a system of international legal protection based on the development of the concept of cultural group rights, including a set of non-individual factors of self-determination of the individual and his participation in collective human existence.

국제개발협력 분야 경과적 일자리 근로자에 대한 사회적 지지가 직무소진에 미치는 영향 분석

The purpose of this study is to examine the influence on job burnout of KOICA Program Coordinators, one
 of transitional jobs generated by South Korea's Official Development Assistance(ODA) program. Transitional
 jobs, one of the direct job creation projects, are expected to have stepping-stone effects, facilitating the
 transition to better jobs with more work experience and capacity. However, there have been less interest and
 analysis on work condition and positive organizational behavior of transitional workers, especially in the field of
 international development cooperation, in spite of their contribution toward aid effectiveness and their potential
 as key human resources in the future. In this respect, this study analyzed the influence of perceived support
 from Coordinators' supervisor and organization on their job burnout, and how subfactors of
 self-determination--autonomy, competence, and relatedness-- moderate these effects. Specifically, the analysis
 used 86 valid responses from a survey conducted on Coordinators who worked for more than one year
 between 2011 and 2020, and a OLS Regression was performed. The findings indicate that percieved support
 from superiors has a direct and significant effect on alleviating job burnout, and all self-determination
 subfactors also have positive moderating effects that amplified this alleviation. These insights deepen the
 understanding of the work environment and burnout among workers in transitional positions, underscoring the
 significance of perceived supervisor support and self-determination factors in managing their job burnout. This
 study extends the research domain of organizational behavior toward transitional jobs in international
 development cooperation and offers implications for the necessary to establish organizational management
 strategy promoting their positive work experiences.

К вопросу о профессиональном самоопределении студентов (на примере исследования в КНИТУ)

Professional self-determination is accompanied by such concepts as formation, development, identification, self-realization in the profession. The article presents a brief review of the theoretical and methodological basis of the conceptual apparatus of professional self-determination from the point of view of sociology and peda-gogy. The results of the study of first-year students of the Institute of Innovation Management of Kazan National Research University and Kazan Technological College are described. The subject of the study is the profes-sional self-determination of students of institutions of higher and secondary vocational education. According to the results of the author’s research, the student's path, the needs and expectations of students, channels and sources of information, groups of reference persons who can influence the student’s professional self-determination are determined. Conditions for professional self-realization of students in the chosen profession are formed as a result of the study, the correlation of self-determination factors among university and college students is carried out.

Y세대와 Z세대 후원자의 출판 크라우드펀딩 참여동기 연구

This study aimed to explore the motivations behind participation in publishing crowdfunding, specifically targeting Generation Y and Generation Z who supported the “Celtic Mythology Illustrated Project”. Thus, this study conducted Focus Group Interviews with three individuals from each generation, randomly sampled between May 1st and May 31st, 2023, to collect data. This data was then analyzed using Van Kaam's phenomenological analysis method. The results revealed that Generation Y recognize publishing crowdfunding as embodying both support and investment characteristics, agreeing on its necessity. Among the factors of self-determination, autonomy, and relatedness were found to be linked to their intrinsic motivation and intention to participate. Additionally, economic motives and the desire for social recognition appeared as their extrinsic motivations.
 In contrast, Generation Z perceives publishing crowdfunding as a concept characterized by support and communication, concurring with its necessity. Moreover, for Generation Z, all three sub-factors of self-determination—competence, autonomy, and relatedness—were observed in their intrinsic motivations, whereas only economic motives were identified as extrinsic motivations. This study confirmed differences in the motivations of Generation Y and Generation Z for participating in publishing crowdfunding. It also suggests that creators in the publishing field can enhance crowdfunding participation by strengthening supporters' self-determination from these generations, thereby increasing their intrinsic motivation.

Motivational Factors for Undergraduate Students During COVID-19 Remote Learning

Pedagogical practices use support of empirical research conducted on students learning in-person, but traditional methods of teaching might not work in times of rapid changes. Globally, courses have switched to online/remote learning and the transition has created challenges to student achievement. The unexpected public safety hazards shifted research focus on the impact of remote learning during COVID-19. Previous interventions including positive reinforcement, negative punishment, perceived control, optimism, and factors of self-determination as single constructs have been used to increase student motivation and engagement. The literature reviewed provides an overview of the impact of previous motivation interventions and the theories used to examine students’ motivation. Future implications to design courses incorporating these key five focuses are ideal for student achievement in remote learning.

Determinants of the Intention to Adopt Digital-Only Banks in Malaysia: The Extension of Environmental Concern

Digital-only banks have not achieved adoption expectations despite being one of the latest innovations in fintech. Several digital-only banks in the United States and Japan have gone bankrupt, and others continue to operate at a loss. Therefore, it is imperative to conduct this study in Malaysia to understand customers’ behavior, particularly regarding the adoption of digital-only banks. With climate change, environmental-friendly behavior, which has been ignored in digital-only bank literature, is becoming increasingly pertinent. This study addresses the lack of an integrated model that investigates the effect of external factors (i.e., critical mass, number of services, and environmental concerns), customer self-determination factors (i.e., trust), and mental perceptions of technology adoption (i.e., convenience, economic efficiency, functional and security risks, as well as perceived value) on the intention to adopt digital-only banks. Data were collected through an online survey targeting Klang Valley residents in the prime age range of 25–54 years old using stratified random sampling. The data was analyzed using structural equation modeling by performing confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and SEM path analysis in AMOS.v26 software. The results show that convenience, economic efficiency, number of services, trust, perceived value, and environmental concern all have positive significant relationships with the intention to adopt digital-only banks. Further, environmental concern is the strongest indicator of behavioral intention. In contrast, functional and security risks have a negative but non-significant relationship with the intention to adopt digital-only banks. Finally, critical mass has a positive but non-significant effect on the behavioral intention. This study is among the first to examine the influence of environmental concern on behavioral intentions in a digital-only banking context. It also contributes to an expanding body of research investigating environmental sustainability by presenting empirical results in the context of digital-only banks.

Front-line employee self-determination in value Co-Creation: Generational profiles

Hospitality value co-creation studies have generally focused on the customer. However, service-dominant logic postulates that all actors must benefit from successful value co-creation. In this study, the employee self-determination factors of autonomy, competence, and relatedness were examined across generations to understand hospitality co-creation perceptions and attitudes. Employee self-determination (strong, weak) was manipulated in online experiments (N = 360) to examine value co-creation outcomes: well-being, perceptions of competitive service advantage, and job satisfaction. Multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) by generational profiles revealed that Baby Boomers sought relatedness and improved their autonomy in the strong condition, Generation X employees valued autonomy or commitment to resources over competence, and Millennials in the strong condition developed their autonomy and relatedness or worked as a team collective. All generations improved their co-creation outcomes under strong self-determination conditions. Implications for theory and practice are discussed.

Self-Determination Factors and Their Impact Through the Relative Autonomy Index on Skills-Based Learning

Through this study, we aim to identify the relationships between self-determination factors and skills-based learning, as well as the impact of these relationships on increasing the quality of skills-based learning in lower secondary education. The methodology of this paper is the use of quantitative methods of descriptive and inferential statistics in order to study the principle of self-determination through statistical estimation of the RAI (Relative Autonomy Index) coefficient. The data for the conduct of the empirical study were made possible by the questionnaires of the academic self-regulation type. The study includes two samples of students divided by the learning difficulty level. The novelty of this study is precisely the inclusion of the students with learning difficulties and the comparison of their outcomes with those of progressive students. There are many studies on the latter, some of which have guided the idea of this study. The Relative Autonomy Index was built by assessing the motivation sublevels dependent on their position in the self-determination process. Consequently, the data were collected by the standard academic self-regulation questionnaire, for the students with learning difficulties (45 students) and progressive students (45 students). The content of the questions is mainly about the reasons that make students do their works at school. The study of the RAI variable was conducted by treating the data according to their classification in terms of students' level of learning difficulties. To conclude on the relation of controlled motivation to relative autonomous motivation, the results of cross-quartile and descriptive distribution of RAI variable were studied. According to the selected sample, the analysis of this empirical study does not give us a good picture of the implementation of the skills-based curriculum, a process, which should enable each student to master the key skills for lifelong learning.

Исследование личностных особенностей самоопределения подростков с интеллектуальными нарушениями

The article analyzes the personal characteristics of adolescents with intellectual disabilities mainly related to issues of self-determination. The research is devoted to the analysis of psychological factors of personal and professional self-determination of adolescents with intellectual disabilities, namely, motivation for success, perception of time and selfawareness of the image of the future. To study these personal factors of self-determination of adolescents with intellectual disabilities, we have adapted and tested the methods for studying the time perspective and attitudes towards the further education of adolescents with normo-typical development, which were developed by O.V. Kuznetsova. It is revealed that the decisive factors in the process of personal and professional self-determination is motivational, temporary competence, selfawareness of the image of the future. It is noted that the severity of the identified deficiencies in personal development depends on the structure of the defect in the contingent of the subjects. Thus, adolescents with combined defects are uncritical about their own activities, are unable to realize their past life experience and apply the acquired skills in the present, their motivation is impaired and reduced. An independent choice of profession and life path for this group of subjects is impossible. But the personal and professional self-determination of adolescents without a burdened medical history, having only a mild degree of mental retardation in the structure of the defect, is formed at a sufficient level. The self-awareness of such children is able to produce an image of the future, built on personal life experience, they are aware of their capabilities and are able to choose a profession on their own or with a small, recommendatory help from vocational guidance specialists.

MICE종사원의 자기결정성이 워라벨과 심리적 웰빙에 미치는 영향

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of MICE employees’ self-determination on work-life balance and psychological well-being. Based on the literature review, three central components of self-determination were chosen: autonomy, competence, and relatedness. Work-life balance was classified into work-family, work-leisure, and work-growth balance. A total of 220 samples were collected from MICEs, and multiple regression was used for hypotheses tests. As a result, first, the self-determinism of MICEs showed partial effects on Work-life balance. In particular, autonomy had significant effects on both work-family and leisure balance. Only the competence factor showed a significant effect on work-growth balance. Second, work-family and work-leisure balance and all factors of self-determination significantly affected psychological well-being. Based on findings, theoretical and empirical implications are discussed.

Knowledge sharing behaviors in social media

PurposeUsers on Social Media (SM) platforms make many decisions related to content sharing, such as whether to create or reuse content, whether to label for easy access by an interest group or not, and whether to disseminate to targeted individuals or broadcast to general audiences. In this study, we investigated if these content-related strategies on SM, called social media knowledge sharing behaviors, are determined by user characteristics. MethodologyUsing concepts from Self-Motivation Theory and the Affordance Theory, we examined if the knowledge sharing behaviors are influenced or correlated with user characteristics, such as the intensity of engagement on SM, a strong preference attitude for a SM platform, and multiple functional intentions for using SM. Based on this survey study of one hundred and twenty-three subjects, we developed hierarchical regression analyses to test if the SM user's knowledge decisions (Creation, Framing and Targeting) are corelated with the user's online usage intensity, their SM online platform preferences, and their functional intentions (Intensity, Preferences and Functionality). We complemented the regression models with a more comprehensive path analysis for an integrative hypothesis testing. FindingsThe main findings show that knowledge creation and knowledge targeting behaviors were correlated with multiple functional intentions (or needs) of users, meaning that users who utilized SM in order to fulfill many needs create and broadcast knowledge more than users that utilized SM in order to fulfill fewer needs. OriginalityThe study investigates the relationship between detailed knowledge sharing behaviors afforded by the social media tools and different user self-determination factors, such as intensity, preference and needs. This study further describes the attributes of social media sharing as a bundle of content sharing strategies of creation, sharing and targeting, which are used differently based on different user characteristics and motivations.

Factors of Self-Determination to Return after the Long-Term Evacuation Caused by a Nuclear Power Plant Accident

Aim of the Study: This study aimed to clarify the factors that were relevant to an individual’s self-determination to return amidst anxiety after a long-term evacuation due to the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident. Method: Semi-structured interviews on whether to return were conducted with nine participants aged 60 - 80 years (eight males and one female) residing in areas where evacuation orders were canceled. The data obtained were analyzed qualitatively and inductively. Result: All participants were returning to their homes. Factors relevant to self-determination to return were represented by five categories: a desire to return 1) emerging from life-experience as a long-term evacuee, 2) retained after obtaining information about the original place of residence, 3) acquired from a long-term life as a refugee, 4) retained with the acceptance of the potential risks of returning, and finally 5) people’s apprehension over talking about the importance of the future of the younger generation. Discussion: These categories were based on the participants’ desire to return and they continued to maintain these thoughts by gathering information and preparing for their return after the long-term evacuation caused by the nuclear accident. It was suggested that the risk perception and the norm in that age group could be among the factors that promoted the choice in maintaining the desire to return.

성인소비자의 자기결정성요인이 윤리적 소비행동에 미치는 영향 : 자기결정성요인에 따른 유형분류 및 윤리적 소비행동분석

본 연구는 성인소비자를 대상으로 하여 자기결정성요인이 윤리적 소비행동에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고, 자기결 정성요인으로 소비자유형을 분류한 후 유형별 윤리적 소비행동을 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 전국적인 온라인 설문조사를 실시하여, 총 500부의 설문지를 자료로 하여 t-test, 일원분산분석, 상관관계분석, 위계적 회귀분석, 군집분석 등을 실시하였다. 주요 연구결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 자기결정성요인은 유능성이 가장 높고 자율성이 가장 낮았다. 학력이 높고 가계소득이 높으며 직업이 있 는 경우 유능성과 관계성이 높았고, 자율성은 직업이 있는 경우 높았다. 둘째, 윤리적 소비행동에서 절제와 간소 가 가장 높았으며 공동체운동은 상대적으로 가장 낮았다. 여자와 무직자의 경우 상거래 윤리수준이 높으며, 기혼 과 직업이 있는 사람이 공동체운동을 더 많이 하고, 적극적 구매와 로컬소비는 직업이 있는 사람에게서 더 높았 다. 한편 연령이 높을수록 공정무역을 제외한 모든 윤리적 소비를 많이 하고, 학력이 높을수록 적극적 구매와 불 매운동, 공정무역소비, 공동체운동을 많이 하였다. 셋째, 상거래 윤리를 제외한 모든 윤리적 소비에 유능성은 정 적인 영향을 미치었다. 관계성은 상거래 윤리, 절제와 간소를 제외한 5가지 윤리적 소비에 정적인 영향을 주었 다. 자율성은 상거래 윤리와 절제와 간소에서는 정적인 영향을 미쳤으나 공동체 운동에서는 부적인 영향을 미치 었다. 넷째, 유능성과 자율성, 관계성이 높은 ‘자기결정성우수집단’은 공동체 운동을 제외한 모든 윤리적 소비행동 에서 가장 높은 수준을 보여, 유능성과 자율성, 관계성의 자기결정성요인은 윤리적 소비행동의 긍정적인 동기를 제공해 주는 것을 확인하였다. 다섯째, 유능성과 관계성은 높으나 자율성이 낮은 ‘자율성부족집단’은 공동체 운동 의 수준이 가장 높으나 반대로 상거래 윤리 수준은 가장 낮았다. 이는 공동체 운동에 유능성과 관계성은 정적 영 향을 주나 자율성은 부적 영향을 주고 있음을, 그리고 상거래 윤리에는 유능성과 관계성이 영향을 미치지 않고 오직 자율성만이 정적 영향을 미치고 있음을 확인하였다.

Does Identification Influence Continuous E-Commerce Consumption? The Mediating Role of Intrinsic Motivations

The motivation behind online consumption behavior is different from that of online social behavior, and research is lacking regarding the impact of identification on e-commerce consumption. The current research examines the influence of identification, which is perceived anonymity, and intrinsic motivation on the continuous purchasing behaviors on retailing e-commerce websites based on self-determination theory. The mediating role of intrinsic motivation was also empirically tested from a sample of 661 frequent consumers using the partial least squares approach. The findings were: (1) Identification negatively influences perceived anonymity, and its low, but significantly positive, influence on continuous e-commerce consumption were totally mediated by perceived competence, perceived autonomy, and perceived relatedness. (2) Perceived anonymity positively influences self-determination factors, which has partly mediating impact between perceived anonymity and continuous consumption. (3) The authenticity and concealment of identity are based on different mechanisms, but both of them are conducive to promoting continuous purchases. On retailing e-commerce websites, customers’ identity management should consider both identification in the background and anonymity perception in the service, and the contributions of the service to promote consumers’ perceived competence and perceived autonomy are important in continuous consumption.

An Investigation of Self-determination Factors among Postgraduate Students

The influx of adult students furthering their studies in universities as postgraduate learners have created more issues on learning and learners. Learning has taken many forms- full-time, part-time, online, distance learning and many more. Learners can be fresh school leavers or even working adult adults. Learners can be pursuing certificates, diploma, bachelor degree or even postgraduate studies. There are also studies conducted to understand self-determination factors of these learners. This qualitative explores the pushing factors that influence students to embark on postgraduate studies. This study also looks into factors that retain as well as demotivate the students in the study programme. A purposive sample of nineteen students narrated their first-semester learning experience in log entries. Data from the entries were analysed and coded to reveal pushing, retaining as well as demotivating factors among postgraduate adult learners. Results of the findings have an interesting implication on demotivational factors of adult, postgraduate learners.

Effects of Outplacement Program's Self-determination Factors on Self-efficacy, Psychological Well-being and Learning Performance

Effects of Outplacement Program's Self-determination Factors on Self-efficacy, Psychological Well-being and Learning Performance

ФАКТОРИ САМОДЕТЕРМІНАЦІЇ ТА ПСИХОЛОГІЧНОГО БЛАГОПОЛУЧЧЯ ОСОБИСТОСТІ

The article analyzes the phenomena of an individual’s self-determination and psychological well-being, their interrelations, factors and components. These are the factors of psychological well-being that form a motivational focus on self-realization, personal autonomy, self-expression, self-acceptance, actualization of own nature, creative potential disclosure, positive relation- ships with others, belief in own effectiveness, etc., which form the individual’s self-determination capabilities. The self-determination structure includes the following components: goals, values, meanings, and awareness of own life journey, perspective of the future; motivation for self-development and self-realization; personal self-efficiency, self-attitude and autonomy; understanding of own powers and confidence in own capabilities; conscious control and realistic assessment of own achievements and prospects, involvement into the social life. Based on the performed correlation and regression analysis, we have established that self-determination of people’s behaviour is influenced by understanding of their life goals and meanings, the inner locus of control, personal autonomy and the ability to self-determination of their positions and regulation of their own lives. The main factors of self-determination, successful self-realization and personal psychological well-being are: understanding of own purposes, meanings, perspective of own future; existence of motivation for self-development and self-realisation, understanding of own powers and confidence in own capabilities, personal autonomy, and the ability to control consciously and to assess own achievements and prospects. The article substantiates that self-determination of personal development is the psychological foundation and prerequisite for personal self-realization. Successful self-realisation and personal psychological well-being is determined by existence of a personal desire for self-development and personal power revealing, evaluation of own personal powers as sufficient to successful achievement and holistic perception of life’s journey, including existence of realistic life goals. These factors stipulate goal-setting motivation and determine integration of the past, present and future in a personal psychological life space. It is substantiated that self-determination of personality development is a psychological basis for its self-realization and psychological well-being.
