According to Whitehead（2010）, physical literacy is defined by motivation, especially by competence-based and interest-based motivation. This point of view is consistent with vast amount of research evidence on children and adolescents＇ physical activity behavior. In the article I attempt to interpret and operationalize physical literacy from a perspective that children＇s motivation in physical education is both an innate mental disposition and an acquired/learned attribute. Particularly I rely on the conceptual learning theory and motivation regulation mechanisms of the self-determination theory to argue that in physical education, children should experience tasks that inspire them to embody competence and interest along with self-regulation strategies necessary for developing and sustaining the motivation to move.展开更多

文摘This study investigates the psychological and cultural motivations that underpin charitable giving in Sri Lanka,with particular attention to whether such behaviour can be considered genuinely altruistic.While charitable acts are commonly perceived as selfless,this research highlights the complex and often contradictory nature of the motivations involved.Using a qualitative approach,semi-structured interviews were conducted with individuals who regularly engage in charitable activities.Thematic analysis revealed three overarching categories of motivation.The first,obliged motives stem from social expectations and religious duty.The second,independent motives reflect personal values and intrinsic satisfaction.The third,ambivalent motives are a novel category that captures the simultaneous interplay between self-serving and other-oriented intentions.The emergence of ambivalent motives is especially significant,as it challenges binary distinctions between altruism and egoism,suggesting that charitable giving frequently serves psychological,social,and existential needs alongside prosocial goals.The findings support established psychological frameworks such as Self-Determination Theory and the Theory of Planned Behavior,while also highlighting the unique cultural dynamics of Sri Lankan society,particularly the influence of Buddhist ethics and collectivist values.These cultural factors shape both the meaning and practice of giving,embedding it within broader narratives of moral obligation,social harmony,and spiritual merit.Ultimately,the study concludes that while charitable giving in Sri Lanka may outwardly appear altruistic,it is often driven by a complex mixture of internal and external motives,suggesting that authenticity in giving is rarely absolute but rather contextually and psychologically mediated.
文摘Objective:To explore the effect of comprehensive nursing based on protection motivation theory in elderly patients with hypertension.Methods:The study period was from August 2023 to May 2025.During this period,40 elderly patients with hypertension who visited the hospital were selected and divided into an observation group(comprehensive nursing based on protection motivation theory,n=20)and a control group(routine nursing,n=20)based on a random number table method.Nursing indicators were compared between the two groups.Results:After nursing,the diastolic blood pressure(80.12±2.31 mmHg)and systolic blood pressure(136.05±3.47 mmHg)in the observation group were significantly different from those in the control group(P<0.05).The scores of health behaviors(nutrition,exercise,health responsibility,and psychological comfort)in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).After nursing,the scores of compliance and negative emotional indicators in the observation group were better than those in the control group(P<0.05).The scores of psychological function(66.31±5.84),physical function(66.57±6.28),material function(61.85±6.21),and social function(69.51±7.25)in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).Conclusion:During the treatment of elderly patients with hypertension,the application of a comprehensive nursing program based on protection motivation theory is beneficial for regulating blood pressure levels,significantly improving health behaviors and quality of life,alleviating negative emotions,and improving treatment compliance to some extent.This approach is feasible for promotion.
文摘Anxiety,motivation,and strategy have long been seen as critical in second language acquisition.This study presents a systematic review of the literature on these variables in terms of their relationship with one another,their effects on learning outcomes,and how they are affected by technology-assisted tools in the teaching of Chinese as a second language.This study includes 24 articles for the review study based on the criteria and process of the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis Protocol(PRISMA-P)and the clustering techniques of VOSviewer.It is found that 1)anxiety,motivation,and strategy were interrelated,that is,motivation was negatively associated with anxiety but positively related to strategy,while strategy could positively predict anxiety;2)anxiety could both positively and negatively affect learning outcomes,while motivation and strategy could both positively and insignificantly influence learning outcomes;3)the technology-assisted tools used in the classroom could both positively and negatively affect the levels of these variables and learning outcomes in the L2 Chinese context.The need to explore more complicated relationships between language-specific individual variables themselves and other possible factors that affect these variables,such as cultural ones,are also discussed for future research.

文摘Despite great achievement has been made in autonomous driving technologies,autonomous vehicles(AVs)still exhibit limitations in intelligence and lack social coordination,which is primarily attributed to their reliance on single-agent technologies,neglecting inter-AV interactions.Current research on multi-agent autonomous driving(MAAD)predominantly focuses on either distributed individual learning or centralized cooperative learning,ignoring the mixed-motive nature of MAAD systems,where each agent is not only self-interested in reaching its own destination but also needs to coordinate with other traffic participants to enhance efficiency and safety.Inspired by the mixed motivation of human driving behavior and their learning process,we propose a novel mixed motivation driven social multi-agent reinforcement learning method for autonomous driving.In our method,a multi-agent reinforcement learning(MARL)algorithm,called Social Learning Policy Optimization(SoLPO),which takes advantage of both the individual and social learning paradigms,is proposed to empower agents to rapidly acquire self-interested policies and effectively learn socially coordinated behavior.Based on the proposed SoLPO,we further develop a mixed-motive MARL method for autonomous driving combined with a social reward integration module that can model the mixed-motive nature of MAAD systems by integrating individual and neighbor rewards into a social learning objective for improved learning speed and effectiveness.Experiments conducted on the MetaDrive simulator show that our proposed method outperforms existing state-of-the-art MARL approaches in metrics including the success rate,safety,and efficiency.More-over,the AVs trained by our method form coordinated social norms and exhibit human-like driving behavior,demonstrating a high degree of social coordination.
文摘This study aimed to explore the mediating roles of self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation on the relationship between teacher autonomy and teacher job satisfaction.Data were from the Teaching and Learning International Survey(TALIS 2018),with a sample of 3131 junior high school teachers(female=2337;male=794)from Shanghai,China.The mediating effect was analyzed using structural equation modeling.The results showed that teacher autonomy was positively associated with teacher job satisfaction,self-efficacy,and intrinsic motivation.Both self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation were associated with teacher job satisfaction.Self-efficacy was associated with teacher intrinsic motivation.Self-efficacy and intrinsic motivation not only served as independent mediators between teacher autonomy and teacher job satisfaction but also played a chain mediating role.Moreover,the separate mediating effect of self-efficacy was the most significant.Findings are consistent with the job demands-resources model by which diminished teacher autonomy ould explain lower teacher job satisfaction.
文摘Second language(L2)motivation has been a topic which receives intensive attention.However,the peer effect on L2 motivation is insufficiently researched,although it is considered a crucial factor which may significantly mediate learners’L2 motivation.Hence,the current study adopted Dörnyei’s L2 Motivational Self System(L2MSS)as a theoretical framework and investigated in which specific aspects peers might affect the learners’L2 motivation and whether such effect was long-lasting.The research was designed as a small-scale qualitative study which was located in a language-focused experimental class project in China.Ten participants were recruited and individual interviews were conducted.The results demonstrated that,first,peers could remarkably influence the L2 motivation possessed by the students in the experimental class since they tended to create a clearer ideal L2 self and a more powerful ought-to L2 self.Second,although they had both positive and negative views towards the curriculum,a motivated peer climate could alleviate the pressure caused by the curriculum and reinforce positive attitudes.Third,such peer effect was not long-lasting.Based on the research results,pedagogical implications were proposed in terms of establishing a positive peer group and adjusting the emphasis of the curriculum.
文摘BACKGROUND The coexistence of rheumatological and immunological diseases with nephropathy presents considerable clinical challenges.These challenges often result in heightened anxiety and depression,which detrimentally affect patient outcomes.Motivational psychological nursing,which incorporates motivational interview and cognitive-behavioral therapy,may offer a promising approach to address these psychological concerns.AIM To evaluate the effectiveness of motivational psychological nursing in the reduction of anxiety and depression and improvement of the quality of life of patients with rheumatological and immunological diseases complicated by nephropathy.METHODS We conducted a retrospective cohort study involving 206 patients with rheumatological and immunological diseases complicated by nephropathy and who were treated between January 2021 and January 2025.The inclusion criteria were as follows:Aged 18-75 years,met the diagnostic criteria for rheumatological and immunological diseases with a renal biopsy classification above type II,hospitalized in our facility,received consistent basic nursing care,and had complete clinical data available.Participants allotted to the observation group(n=102)receiving motivational psychological nursing,and those in the control group(n=104)received standard care.Psychological status was assessed using Self-Rating Anxiety Scale(SAS),Beck Anxiety Inventory,Hamilton Anxiety Rating Scale,Self-Rating Depression Scale(SDS),Patient Health Questionnaire-9,and other standardized measures.Intervention lasted throughout hospitalization,with follow-up assessments conducted before discharge.RESULTS Pre-intervention,anxiety,and depression scores were similar across groups.Postintervention,the observation group showed significant reductions in anxiety(SAS:44.53±6.72 vs 46.79±6.94;P=0.018)and depression(SDS:45.20±5.07 vs 46.97±5.25;P=0.014)compared with the control group.General self-efficacy(P=0.044),healthrelated quality of life(P=0.044),and World Health Organization Quality of Life(P=0.040)scores also revealed significant improvement.CONCLUSION Motivational psychological nursing considerably reduces anxiety and depression in patients with rheumatological and immunological diseases complicated by nephropathy,which enhances the overall quality of life.

文摘[Objectives]To explore the effects of motivational interviewing intervention based on the transtheoretical model(TTM)on psychological resilience and self-management in patients undergoing finger reimplantation after amputation.[Methods]The patients with finger replantation due to fractures admitted from October 2024 to June 2025 were divided into either the control group or the observation group according to the random number table method,with 40 cases in each group.The control group received conventional perioperative care,while the observation group underwent motivational interviewing based on TTM framework on the basis of the control group.The psychological resilience and self-management levels of the two patient groups were then compared following their respective care interventions.[Results]The psychological resilience and self-management scores of the patients were significantly higher than those of the control group after the intervention,with the difference being statistically significant(P<0.05).[Conclusions]Motivational interviewing based on the TTM can effectively improve the psychological resilience and self-management in patients undergoing severed finger reimplantation,while effectively reducing the occurrence of vascular crisis.
文摘BACKGROUND Enhancing postoperative recovery is a critical goal in clinical practice and the application of innovative nursing models can significantly contribute to this objective.AIM To investigate the effects of motivational and early warning nursing interventions on wound healing and sociopsychological adaptability in patients undergoing hepatobiliary surgery.METHODS A total of 160 patients who underwent surgical treatment in the hepatobiliary department of our hospital from January 2022 to June 2024 were selected and randomly divided into a control group and an observation group,with 80 patients in each group.The control group received routine nursing care,while the observation group received a combination of motivational and early warning nursing interventions.The wound healing status(class A,B,and C wound healing and healing time),social psychological adaptability,complications,postoperative recovery,and quality of life were compared between the two groups.RESULTS The wound healing rate in the observation group was higher than that in the control group,while the wound healing time was shorter(P<0.05).The social adaptability scores in the observation group were higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).The incidence of complications was lower in the observation group than in the control group(P<0.05).Postoperative recovery and quality of life were better in the observation group than in the control group(P<0.05).CONCLUSION Motivational and early warning nursing interventions are beneficial for promoting wound healing in patients undergoing hepatobiliary surgery,reducing the incidence of complications and improving socio-psychological adaptability and postoperative quality of life.These interventions should be promoted in clinical nursing practice.
文摘Physical literacy is a concept that is expected to encompass the mind and body in an integrated way to explain, promote, and help sustain human beings＇ fundamental function： movement. According to Whitehead（2010）, physical literacy is defined by motivation, especially by competence-based and interest-based motivation. This point of view is consistent with vast amount of research evidence on children and adolescents＇ physical activity behavior. In the article I attempt to interpret and operationalize physical literacy from a perspective that children＇s motivation in physical education is both an innate mental disposition and an acquired/learned attribute. Particularly I rely on the conceptual learning theory and motivation regulation mechanisms of the self-determination theory to argue that in physical education, children should experience tasks that inspire them to embody competence and interest along with self-regulation strategies necessary for developing and sustaining the motivation to move.
