The interplay of intrinsic need satisfaction and Facebook specific motives in explaining addictive behavior on Facebook
2014
We conducted an online survey with 581 SNS users.We developed a scale measuring SNS addiction.SNS specific motives mediate the effect of intrinsic needs on SNS addiction.People try to compensate thwarted intrinsic needs with gratifications from SNS use.Gratifications sought from SNS use can cause addictive SNS usage patterns. The present paper aims at exploring the new phenomenon of social network site (SNS) addiction and at identifying predictors of problematic SNS use. For this purpose, a scale measuring addictive behavior specifically with regard to SNS use was developed. The effects of intrinsic need satisfaction in the offline context and of SNS-specific motives on SNS addiction were t…
Kestävä kehitys -aiheisen projektityön vaikutus 8.-luokkalaisten ympäristöasenteisiin ja käyttäytymiseen
2017
Ihmisen ja luonnon hyvinvoinnin kannalta on tärkeää, että ihmiset oppivat elämään kestävän kehityksen periaatteiden mukaisesti. Nuorten asenteet ympäristöä kohtaan ovat myönteisiä, mutta asenteet eivät heijastu suoraan käyttäytymiseen. Ympäristökasvatuksen tavoitteena on mahdollistaa jokaiselle ihmiselle kestävään elämään tarvittavien tietojen, taitojen ja asenteiden omaksuminen. Kestävään elämäntapaan kuuluu yksilötason toiminta, kuten kulutustottumukset, sekä yhteiskunnallinen osallistuminen ja vaikuttaminen. Kestävän elämäntavan opetuksen tulisi sisältää oman lähiympäristön asioihin vaikuttamisen harjoittelemista omassa oppilaitoksessa sekä yhteistyössä muiden yhteiskunnan toimijoiden ka…
Measuring something that cannot be grasped – Reflections about Methodology in Elicitation of Spoken Competence
2014
The focus of this article is on reflections about methodology and the methodical choices in empirical research into the role of consciousness in the acquisition of spoken competence in German as second or third foreign language. Seeing language as a complex, dynamic system, I want to show how learning fluctuates. I would like to demonstrate that there is a continuous fluctuation between nonlinearity and stability which depends on particular driving forces. These forces have to be captured by methods whose aim is to increase the certainty of data. These reflections were proved by a case that wants to demonstrate how a multi-methodical approach works in this direction.
The inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of the Actual Aquatic Skills Test (AAST) for assessing young children’s motor competence in the water
2021
As children’s actual aquatic skills are important for the prevention of drowning as well as their engagement in lifelong aquatic physical activity, researchers and practitioners should be able to assess this vital concept accurately and reliably. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the inter-rater and intra-rater reliability of the Actual Aquatic Skills Test (AAST), consisting of 17 different test items for the assessment of young children’s motor competence in the water. Six raters received a training and evaluation session on scoring the AAST, after which five of them assessed four test videos (of various children (n = 38) performing the test items) twice, with one to t…
UPBRINGING AND LEARNING UNITY AS A SOURCE FOR DEVELOPING TEACHERS' EMOTIONAL RESPONSIVENESS
2020
In the second half of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, the scientific research in Europe started focusing more on the problems of upbringing. Pedagogical science was no exception, and also started raising questions regarding upbringing including both the teaching/learning and the upbringing/self-education processes in pedagogical activities and in the education system as a whole. The united way in which the teaching/learning, upbringing/self-education work is conducted at educational institutions reflects the professionalism of the teacher. The study reveals the necessity and importance of upbringing and unity in teaching work for the pedagogical processes of the 21st…

La teoría de la autodeterminación : un marco motivacional para el aprendizaje basado en proyectos
2019
Resumen basado en el de la publicación Título, resumen, palabras clave en español e ingles Se describe cómo la mejora de la motivación escolar requiere de un marco teórico que permita establecer estrategias sencillas para guiar a los docentes en su práctica educativa. La teoría de la autodeterminación, con un corpus científico extenso, ha ayudado a entender mejor los elementos que inciden sobre la motivación en la práctica. Según este marco teórico, las formas autónomas de motivación requieren del desarrollo de tres necesidades psicológicas básicas: autonomía, competencia y relación con los demás. En el medio escolar, estas necesidades se ven favorecidas a través de contextos que fomentan l…

Predicting human performance in interactive tasks by using dynamic models
2017
The selection of an appropriate sequence of activities is an essential task to keep student motivation and foster engagement. Usually, decisions in this respect are made by taking into account the difficulty of the activities, in relation to the student's level of competence. In this paper, we present a dynamic model that aims to predict the average performance of a group of students at solving a given series of maths problems. The system takes into account both student- and task-related features. This model was built and validated by using the data gathered in an experimental session that involved 64 participants solving a sequence of 26 arithmetic problems. The data collected from the fir…
