Class of 2017 Abstract<br>Objectives: The purpose of the study was to identify the types of motivation that promote sustained physical activity among adolescents between the ages of 11-17 who are diagnosed with type 1 diabetes (T1D) to prevent diabetes related complications.
Methods: Questionnaires were distributed and collected among the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation’s (JDRF) listserv, Facebook page, and events in Phoenix and Tucson, Arizona on motivations for managing diabetes and exercise and confidence in diabetes management and performing physical activity. Demographic data was collected on age, gender, and race/ethnicity. Physical activity, levels of activity intensity, weight, height, health- related risk behaviors, chronic health conditions, and use of preventative services were also included in this study. Results: 11 adolescents completed questionnaires, categorized by participants who exercise less than 60 minutes daily (Group below recommended exercise level, GBRE) and participants who exercise more or equal to 60 minutes daily (Group meeting recommended exercise level, GMRE). GBRE’s average mean age was 15.75 and GMRE’s average mean age was 13.92. GMRE was associated with higher intensity physical activity (42.85% versus 0%). GBRE had a relative autonomy index (RAI) of 1.67 on the Treatment Self-regulation Questionnaire (TSRQ) compared to GMRE with a RAI of 3.81 (Mann-Whitney U 19, p-value 0.412). GBRE scored 73.75 on the Diabetes Self-efficacy Scale (DSES) and GMRE scored 78.71 (Mann-Whitney U 7, p-value 0.23).
Conclusions: Adolescents who exercised ≥ 60 minutes daily were observed to be self-motivated in managing their diabetes, especially maintaining exercise recommendations to decrease diabetes related complications.

Educational Psychology<br>Ph.D.<br>Along many dimensions, homeschooling is increasing, diversifying, and spreading globally. Yet little is known about the motivational climates and teaching strategies parents have adopted to promote academic achievement and motivation within their homes. Working within a self-determination theory (SDT) framework, this study used cluster analysis to examine the naturally-occurring types of learning environments created by 457 homeschool parents. Measures of support for autonomy, mastery goal orientation, and conditional regard were adapted for a homeschool context and used as constituting variables. Follow-up measures of need satisfaction, efficacy, student academic engagement, teaching practices and demographics were used to identify significant differences among groups. A five cluster solution best fit the data: a high need support group, low need support group and three groups of mixed need support. In general, the high need and mixed need support groups were associated with higher student engagement, need satisfaction, efficacy for homeschooling and frequent use of teaching strategies that promote autonomous motivation and support for student competence. The low need support group was significantly associated with lower need satisfaction and teaching strategies associated with control. Higher levels of academic engagement were reported for those students homeschooled longer and at higher grade levels. Male teaching parents (n = 29) reported significantly less need satisfaction and were significantly associated with the low need support group. Taken together, the findings extend self-determination theory to an important, emerging learning context. Results were consistent with findings in SDT research across other domains; thus, lending support to the universality of SDT's main tenets.<br>Temple University--Theses

Full textAbstract:
The purpose of the present thesis was to examine the differential and longitudinal relations between academic motivation types, achievement, and persistence in high school and junior college samples. Academic motivation was defined as a multidimensional construct consisting of intrinsic, extrinsic and amotivated types, according to Self-Determination Theory. Study 1 consisted of a meta-analysis supporting the positive relations of intrinsic motivation and identified regulation and the negative relations of amotivation to school achievement and persistence. It also showed weak and inconsistent effects of introjected and external regulation on school outcomes, and revealed several moderators. Building on these findings, Study 2 used a prospective design, controlling for baseline achievement and high school dropout intentions, to show that intrinsic motivation was the only type of motivation to significantly predict an increase in achievement and a decrease in intentions to drop out over one year. Study 3 aimed to replicate these results using a prospective design and extend them to a sample of students experiencing the transition from high school to junior college (Cegep) and studying science. It showed that intrinsic motivation was significantly positively associated with increases in school achievement and persistence in university over several years, whereas introjected regulation was related to lower levels of achievement and persistence in university. The three studies suggest that intrinsic motivation is the most beneficial form of motivation for students' achievement and persistence and that preventing the development of introjected regulation and amotivation could contribute to prevent school dropout, specifically during the transition from high school to junior college.<br>La présente thèse vise à examiner les relations différentielles et longitudinales entre les types de motivation, la réussite et la persévérance scolaires auprès des jeunes du secondaire et du collégial. La motivation scolaire fut définie en tant que construit multidimensionnel, comportant les types intrinsèque, contrôlés et amotivés. L'Étude 1 consiste en une méta-analyse démontrant les relations positives entre la motivation intrinsèque, la régulation identifiée et la réussite et la persévérance scolaires, ainsi que la relation négative entre l'amotivation et ces mêmes variables résultantes. De plus, cette étude atteste l'effet faible et variable des motivations par régulation introjectée et externe. En se basant sur ces résultats, l'Étude 2 illustre, à l'aide d'un devis longitudinal et de variables contrôles au temps 1, que la motivation intrinsèque est la seule à prédire une hausse du rendement scolaire et une baisse des intentions de décrochage sur un an. L'Étude 3, ayant pour objectif de reproduire ces résultats auprès d'un échantillon d'étudiants en période de transition du secondaire au collégial, démontra que la motivation intrinsèque était associée significativement à une augmentation du rendement et de la persévérance en sciences à l'université. D'autre part, cette étude démontre que la régulation introjectée est liée à une baisse de réussite et de persévérance en sciences au niveau universitaire. Ces trois études démontrent que la motivation intrinsèque serait la forme de motivation la plus bénéfique pour le rendement et la persévérance des jeunes. Elles évoquent également que la prévention du décrochage scolaire devrait cibler le développement de la motivation par régulation introjectée et l'amotivation, surtout durant les périodes de transitions scolaires.

Full textAbstract:
Detta arbete baseras på en kvalitativ intervjustudie med tre musiklärare som arbetar i en kulturskola. Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur dessa lärare ser på olika lektionsformers betydelse för elevers motivation. Den teoretiska utgångspunkten för arbetet utgörs av ett sociokulturellt perspektiv. I intervjuerna ombads lärarna att besvara ett antal öppet ställda frågor, utifrån vilka de beskriver sin syn på ämnet. Resultatet visar att musiklärarna uppfattar en tradition bland kommunala musik- och kulturskolor där individuella 20-minuterslektioner är den vanligast förekommande lektionsformen, dock anser de att olika typer av gruppundervisning blir allt vanligare. Anledningen till att individuella lektioner fortfarande utgör normen anses ha att göra med att det är bekvämare jämfört med grupp- och ensembleundervisning som innebär större arbetsbörda för läraren, men som enligt informanterna i regel gagnar elevernas motivation i större utsträckning. Informanterna var överens om att det bästa kursupplägget ur såväl kunskapsmässig som motivationsmässig aspekt vore att eleverna får både individuella lektioner och lektioner i grupp, då dessa anses komplettera varandra på ett gynnsamt sätt. De tre var överens om att när det kommer till unga nybörjare är dock någon form av gruppundervisning att föredra. I unga åldrar har inte det inre belöningssystemet utvecklats och därför behövs en högre grad av direkt belöning, vilket underlättas i sociala sammanhang, menar informanterna. Uppsatsen avslutas med en diskussion där resultatet diskuteras i förhållande till tidigare forskning.<br>This study is based on qualitative interviews with three teachers in a Swedish municipal school of music. The purpose of the study is to examine these teachers’ views on various types of lessons and the impact they have in terms of motivating students. The theoretical basis of this work is the social cultural perspective. In the interviews the teachers were asked to answer a couple of open questions, from which they described their views. The teachers’ experiences show a traditional and most common way of education on musical instruments in Sweden that is, 20 minute individual lessons. The practises of teaching in groups are however considered to have increased in popularity over past years. The reason why individual lessons still are norm is because of the larger workload for the teachers regarding group lessons. Nevertheless, group lessons are considered to motivate students to a greater extent than individual lessons. The three teachers agreed upon that the best alternative is to give students opportunity to receive both individual and group lessons, since these complement each other in a favourable manner. When it comes to young beginners, some form of group activity is though preferable. This is because young students do not have the internal reward system developed and therefore requires a higher degree of direct confirmation, which is supposed to be more facilitated by group settings than by individual lessons. The study ends with a chapter where results to previous research are discussed.

Full textAbstract:
At a time when policy-makers in Hong Kong are pushing for educational reforms, there seems to be an increasing interest for both the Government and parents to use success stories of our western counterparts as a point of reference in guiding reforms. The general purpose of this study was to examine the subtle interplay of factors (e.g. classroom structures, culturally-derived values, teachers' perceptions of 'what counts’ in education, students' perceptions of their learning, government policy and resources allocation etc) that might contribute to students' motivation orientations. Two primary classrooms, one from each education system (a local school and an international school in Hong Kong), were analysed. Subjects for this study were 80 students who completed a questionnaire and 20 students and 5 teachers who were interviewed individually by the researcher. They were chosen from two Key stage 2 classes in each of the two targeted schools. One specific focus of this investigation was to examine whether there were any significant differences in students' motivational orientations in the two classes of students (who came from two types of schools) studied. A second specific focus was to examine whether there were any differences in the classroom structures and practices between the two classes of students and, if so, to find out to what extent did they account for the differences in students' motivation orientation. The third specific focus was to examine the extent to which culturally derived values served to affect teachers’ interpretation of their professional values and definitions of good educational practices, which in turn defined how they structured their classroom. The last focus was to examine the extent to which culturally derived values served to affect students’ perceptions of the classroom instruction, and their definition of 'how learning should happen' in the classroom. Findings from this study could shed light on whether policy makers are heading for the right direction in education reforms.

Résumé: INTRODUCTION : Il y a un besoin urgent pour des interventions en activité physique qui peuvent efficacement faire augmenter les niveaux d'activité physique chez les jeunes. A date, les interventions se concentrent sur le niveau d'activité physique en général, et non sur des types d'activités physiques. Toutefois, la participation aux activités physiques n'est pas nécessairement stable pendant la jeunesse, et les préférences ont tendance à varier avec l'âge. Une meilleure compréhension de ce qui motive les jeunes à participer aux différents types d'activités physiques pourrait nous aider à orienter la conception d'interventions plus efficaces. L'objectif général de cette étude était d'explorer les liens entre les différents motifs associés avec la pratique de divers types d'activités physiques chez les jeunes selon la théorie de l'autodétermination. De façon plus spécifique, nous voulions 1) Identifier les motifs associés avec la participation à des activités physiques organisées, non organisées, en groupe et individuelles et 2) Identifier les motifs associés avec l'atteinte des recommandations en activité physique. MÉTHODES : Étude transversale basée sur les données de l'étude MATCH Mesurer les AcTivités physiques des jeunes afin de Comprendre leurs Habitudes). Huit cent deux élèves de la 5' et 6' année de 17 écoles du Nouveau-Brunswick ont rempli un questionnaire sur leur participation à différents types d'activités physiques, leurs motifs de la pratique de l'activité physique et l'atteinte des recommandations en activité physique. Les liens entre les motifs et la participation aux différents types d'activités physiques ainsi que l'atteinte des recommandations en activité physique ont été évaluées avec des modèles de régressions logistiques multi niveaux. RÉSULTATS : Les motifs de la pratique de l'activité physique distinguant les participants des non-participants variaient selon les types d'activités physiques pratiquées. Les cotes de pratiquer une activité physique organisée étaient plus élevées chez les jeunes motivés par le plaisir, alors que les cotes étaient moins élevées chez ceux motivés par l'aspect social. Le motif de compétence a été associée à des cotes plus élevées d'atteindre les recommandations en activité physique ainsi que de participer aux activités physiques en groupe. CONCLUSION : Cibler les motifs intrinsèques d'activité physique tels que la compétence et le plaisir pourrait être associé à une plus grande participation aux activités physiques organisées et en groupe ainsi qu'à l'atteinte des recommandations en activité physique. ||Abstract: "BACKGROUND: There is a critical need for physical activity programs, but most interventions are not effective in increasing physical activity levels in youth. Existing interventions focus on general physical activity levels, and not on specific types of physical activities. However, physical activity practices are not necessarily stable among youth and preferences tend to vary over time. Understanding what physical activity goals motivate youth to engage in different types of physical activities could inform the design of more specific, and potentially more effective, interventions. The overall objective of this study was to explore the relationship between different physical activity goals and types of physical activities practiced by youth according to the Self-Determination theory. Specifically, we wished to 1) Identify physical activity goals associated with participation in physical activities that are organized, non-organized, group-based and individual, and 2) Identify physical activity goals that are associated with achieving current physical activity recommendations. METHODS: We conducted a cross-sectional analysis based on data from the MATCH study ( Measuring the physical Activities of Teenagers to Comprehend their Habits ). Eight hundred and two grade 5 and 6 students from 17 schools in New-Brunswick completed a questionnaire regarding their participation in different types of physical activity, their physical activity goals and attainment of physical activity guidelines. Relationships between goals and participation in different types of physical activities as well as attainment of physical activity recommendations were assessed using multilevel logistic regression models. RESULTS: Goals distinguishing participants from non-participants varied within each type of physical activity. Odds of practicing organized physical activity were higher among students motivated by enjoyment goals and lower among those motivated by social goals. Higher competence goals were associated with greater odds of participating in group-based physical activity and achievement of physical activity recommendations. CONCLUSION: Targeting intrinsic physical activity goals such as enjoyment and competence in interventions for youth may increase participation in organized and group-based physical activities, as well as help improve the likelihood of meeting physical activity guidelines.

Die Integration von verschiedenen Aufgabentypen zur Wissensvermittlung und -abfrage wird bei der Gestaltung von digitalen Lernanwendungen häufig empfohlen. Vielfältige Aufgabentypen können zu einer erhöhten Motivation im Lernprozess führen. Bislang gibt es jedoch wenig Erkenntnisse darüber, ob einige Aufgabentypen mehr motivieren als andere. Aus diesem Grund wird in der vorliegenden Studie untersucht, inwiefern Ja/Nein-Fragen, Multiple Choice-Aufgaben, Markierungs-, Reihenfolge-, Zuordnungs-, Freitextaufgaben, Kreuzworträtsel und Lückentexte motivieren. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass Kreuzworträtsel und Markierungs- sowie Zuordnungsaufgaben am meisten Motivation hervorrufen, während Lückentexte und Freitextaufgaben am wenigsten motivierend wirken. Bei der Gestaltung zukünftiger digitaler Lernanwendungen sollte dies berücksichtigt werden.

Jung, Euiyong. "An Examination of Motivation Types and Their Influence on English Proficiency for Current High School Students in South Korean." BYU ScholarsArchive, 2020. https://scholarsarchive.byu.edu/etd/8745.
Full textAbstract:
Despite huge investments in national English language policies, few South Koreans develop communicable English proficiency. Yet, English language proficiency for all secondary and college students continues to be the goal of these policies (Moodie & Nam, 2015; Ahn, 2015). One of the fundamental reasons for the lack of communicable English proficiency was based on the social phenomenon, called 'hakbuljueui', or academic elitism, in Korea (Kim. T.-Y., 2006) whereby students seem to be instrumentally motivated to learn English only to pass the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT), and gain admission to elite Universities (Kim, T.-Y., 2006; Kim, K., 2016). The current study examines whether current South Korean high school are still motivated only by instrumental motivation (the desire to gain entrance into an elite university) or if other motivation also guides their goals of learning English. In addition, the current study sought to understand the relationship between participant's motivation and their English proficiency. The current study examines whether current South Korean high school are still motivated only by instrumental motivation (the desire to gain entrance into an elite university) or if other motivation also guides their goals of learning English. To accomplish these goals, 42 current high school students in South Korea were asked to complete a motivation survey and rate their ability to speak, read, write, and understand English. Motivation was defined and divided into six orientations: instrumental, knowledge, travel, friendship, sociocultural, and integrative. In addition, 27 of the 42 students also participated in simulated Oral Proficiency Interviews (OPIs). The data revealed that while previous research demonstrated that Korean students show the evidence of instrumental motivation to learn English, the participants in the current study were motivated by both instrumental and other types of motivation. However, their motivation orientation did not predict their self-rated proficiency levels nor their scores on the OPI. The results suggest that students' motivation is expending, and the implication of this study suggests bottom-up policy development that can magnify the various motivations to study English among South Korean students.

We have chosen to focus this paper on the importance of game-components in the MMORPG-game World of Warcraft, in order to discover which of them who are the most important and create the biggest motivation to play the game for the players of World of Warcraft. We made this investigation because we wanted to find out more about the specific reasons about what people think is especially great with World of Warcraft and makes them want to play it for hour after hour. By doing this we wanted to find out what it is that is so appreciated with this game. But this is a big area and it has therefore been difficult to find a way to satisfy and make those who have answered on our survey to feel that the game-component they enjoy most has been a part of our questions. To solve this problem we did a survey that included 200 persons and two interviews. When both the survey and the interviews had been completed, the result was being compared against each other and together to see if there was any difference between them or if they had any similarity to the attraction and motivation. This comparison was done with two theories and one model there was made for game designing. After going through the result we managed to find out that there isn’t a big difference between what attracts and what motivates a player. Our methods showed that most of the players in World of Warcraft play the game to maintain their social network that they have built up for some time. This reason was both the strongest attraction and the most important motivation to play the game. The konwledge we gained from our studie could be used by the game-creators to see which components that is of certain interest of the player. By this the creators (in this case Blizzard) could focus on making these components even better and making the player appreciate the game more.

Full textAbstract:
Stress is the main contributing risk factor in the development of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular diseases and diabetes as well as mental illnesses such as depression, anxiety, and somatic symptoms. In particular, job stress may undermine the productivity, morale, relationships, and well-being of employees. Mounting research demonstrate that leisure can contribute to one’s health and well-being by enhancing a stress coping mechanism. The primary purpose of this study is to investigate stress coping and health-promoting behaviors in conjunction with leisure by comparing three types of leisure (active, passive, and social). In addition, the associations between types of leisure motivation and types of leisure, personal attributes influencing types of leisure, and personal attributes moderating the impact of types of leisure motivation on active leisure, were examined. A cross-sectional study was conducted by distributing electronic surveys containing five instruments (Types of Leisure, Leisure Motivation, Coping Self-Efficacy, Perceived Stress, and Health-Promoting Behaviors) along with a demographic questionnaire to 3739 Southern Illinois University (SIU) full-time employees. Self-Determination Theory (SDT) was used to provide the theoretical framework for this study. Perceived stress, coping self-efficacy, and health-promoting behaviors in conjunction with types of leisure were examined. SDT, which mainly posits human psychological well-being induced by fostering intrinsic motivation as opposed to extrinsic motivation, derived research questions with respect to the relationships between types of leisure, types of leisure motivation, and health-promoting behaviors. In addition, the influences of types of leisure motivation on alleviation of perceived stress were examined by comparing the types of leisure (active, passive, and social). For the demographic variables, the influences of personal attributes such as age and BMI on types of leisure were examined. Lastly, whether perceived health status moderates the effect of the type of leisure motivation on active leisure was investigated. Demographic data showed that out of 605 (N = 605) who participated in the survey, 448 participants completed all the survey questions. Statistical analyses which employ descriptive, Pearson correlation, simple/simultaneous regression, and multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA) were performed to investigate the research questions. The analyses revealed that all three types of leisure (active, passive, and social) were positively correlated with each other, coping self-efficacy, health-promoting behaviors and negatively correlated with perceived stress. Also, coping self-efficacy significantly predicted health-promoting behaviors as well as perceived stress. With respect to the associations between types of leisure motivation and types of leisure, intrinsic leisure motivation toward stimulation had the strongest significant association with active leisure. Intrinsic leisure motivation toward knowledge had the strongest significant association with passive leisure. Extrinsic leisure motivation identified had the strongest significant association with social leisure. With regard to types of leisure motivation influencing perceived stress, intrinsic leisure motivation toward external regulation was the strongest significant predictor for elevated levels of perceived stress even after taking into account intrinsic leisure motivation toward stimulation and extrinsic leisure motivation identified. In addition, extrinsic leisure motivation identified significantly predicted lowered levels of perceived stress. With regard to the association between types of leisure motivation and health-promoting behaviors, extrinsic leisure motivation identified had the strongest significant association with health-promoting behaviors. For the demographic variables in conjunction with types of leisure, females exhibited a significantly higher score on social leisure than males and education levels influenced active leisure, indicating that employees with a master's degree had a significantly higher score on active leisure than those with bachelor's degree or some college/high school diploma. Perceived health status significantly predicted active leisure, indicating that university employees with higher levels of perceived health status were more likely to participate in active leisure than those with lower levels of perceived health status. Lastly, the interaction between perceived health status and intrinsic leisure motivation toward stimulation was significant, indicating that the impact of intrinsic leisure motivation toward stimulation on active leisure differed depending on perceived health status. In other words, the impact of intrinsic leisure motivation toward stimulation was significantly greater in university employees with low perceived health status as compared to those with high perceived health status. This study seems to be meaningful in suggesting that leisure can be a contributing factor for health possibly through reducing perceived stress and enhancing health behaviors. Also, meaningful engagement in leisure may play a role as an effective stress coping strategy, which may lead to long term health-promoting behaviors by fostering intrinsic motivation. Personal attributes such as age, BMI, education level, and perceived health status may impact participating in active leisure. Furthermore, perceived health status may moderate the impact of intrinsic leisure motivation toward stimulation on active leisure. Further research comparing types of leisure impacting stress and health behaviors with more well-refined types of leisure scale is warranted.

Full textAbstract:
Background: Research into the benefits of exercise for individuals with Bipolar Disorder (BD) is limited and no current guidelines exist around recommending exercise during a hypomanic/manic state. The Behavioural Activation System (BAS) dysregulation theory is a popular model that attempts to explain the link between approach motivation (AM) and the difficulties that individuals with BD experience. It may offer an explanation for the ‘upward spiral’ reported by individuals with a diagnosis of BD in response to certain types and intensities of exercise. This study looked to investigate the impact of different intensities of exercise on the maintenance of AM levels. The presence of hypomanic traits and how these interacted between AM and exercise was also of interest. Method: Participants filled out an online pre-screening questionnaire identifying hypomanic traits. 61 then completed a computer task designed to induce higher levels of AM before taking part in one of three 15 minute activities (sedentary, moderate exercise or vigorous exercise). Various measures linked to hypomanic symptoms were taken during testing. Results The main findings indicated that vigorous exercise significantly increased individuals AM levels in comparison to moderate or no exercise. This relationship was not however found to be moderated by the presence of hypomanic traits. Conclusions: Vigorous exercise seems to have a greater impact on AM levels regardless of an individual’s levels of hypomanic traits. This has implications in terms of the type of exercise should engage in when experiencing hypomania. Any recommendations however within this study should be taken in light of the limitations identified. Further research replicating these results with a larger sample or using a BD population are recommended.

Full textAbstract:
Research on entrepreneurial motivation of university scientists is often determined by quantitative methods without taking into account context-related influences. According to different studies, entrepreneurial scientists found a spin-off company due to motives like independency, market opportunity, money or risk of unemployment (short-term contracts). To give a comprehensive explanation, it is important to use a qualitative research view that considers academic rank, norms and values of university scientists. The author spoke with 35 natural scientists and asked professors and research fellows for their entrepreneurial motivation. The results of this study are used to develop a typology of entrepreneurial and non-entrepreneurial scientists within German universities. This paper presents the key findings of the study (Sass 2011).

Vi har i vår forskningsöversikt inte hittat någon beskrivning på hur ledarskap kan anpassas tillmedarbetares olika personlighetstyper. Vårt syfte med studien var således att ta reda på hurolika typer av ledarskap kan anpassas till anställdas olika personlighetstyper för att uppnåstörsta möjlighet till utveckling av deras motivation. Vilket är en bidragande faktor till ettföretags utveckling och bör därför ligga i ledarens intresse. Med hjälp av två olikapersonlighetsklassificeringsmodeller, teorier om ledarskap och motivation samt empiri hämtatfrån ledare i arbetslivet har vi studerat vad för typ av ledarskap som fungerar för modellernasolika personlighetstyper. Med hjälp av kvalitativ forskningsstrategi har vi använt oss avtvärsnittsdesign samt en öppen och sex semistrukturerade intervjuer för att uppnå studienssyfte.Genom vår studie kan vi på ett tydligt sätt visa på att de personligheter vi utgått ifrån kräverolika typ av ledarskap, motiveras av olika faktorer och att situationen kan ha stor inverkan pånär ett visst ledarskap passar. Resultatet av vår studie har utformats till två tabeller utifrån depersonlighetsklassificeringsmodeller vi använt oss av. Tabellerna presenterar vilkenledarskapsteori som passar till vilken personlighetstyp. Studien resulterade även i ettkonstaterande att ledare bör använda sig av relationsinriktat ledarskap i grunden ochkomplettera det med uppgiftsinriktat ledarskap, för att finna de anställdas motivation och ledadem på ett framgångsrikt sätt.<br>In the research of this study we found a gap regarding information on how to adapt leadershipto employees of various personalities. Our purpose was now to fill that research gap. In ourstudy on personality-adapted leadership, we found that all kinds of personalities have variouspreferences to be led. Using two different personality classification models, theories ofleadership and motivation as well as empirical evidence drawn from Business leaders, wehave studied which kind of leadership that works best for models of different personalitytypes. With the help of a cross-section design, qualitative methods together with semistructuredinterviews we were able to combine the theories we used with the empiricalevidence. Accordingly, our purpose is to acknowledge how leadership can be adapted todifferent personalities to achieve the greatest opportunity for the development of theirmotivation. This is a contributing factor to the development of a company and shouldtherefore be in the leader’s interest.As a conclusion our study shows how different personalities demand certain kinds ofleadership, that they get motivated by a wide range of factors and that various situations canhave a big effect where a certain leadership is most suitable. The result of our study has led totwo tables based on the personality classification models, which show which leadershiptheory fits the different kinds of personality types. The study also shows that leaders shouldadapt a relationship-oriented leadership and complement it with a task-oriented one in order tofind their employees motivation and be able to lead them in a successful way.

Full textAbstract:
Att besöka olika typer av evenemang har blivit ett alltmer vanligt sätt att förgylla vardagen. Ofta är det ett fåtal personer som ligger bakom planeringen av ett evenemang, men för att lyckas genomföra det på ett framgångsrikt sätt krävs det mer personal, och detta ofta i form av volontärer. Då dessa ställer upp utan finansiell ersättning, är det lätt hänt att det råder en brist på motivation. Avhopp av volontärer är vanligt förekommande och kan ge evenemanget ödesdigra konsekvenser, så det ligger i arrangörens intresse att försöka få dem att stanna och detta genom att hålla dem motiverade. I denna studie har det undersökts vad som skiljer olika personlighetstyper åt när det kommer till motivation. Genom att låta ett antal studenter genomföra ett personlighetstest baserat på modellen The Big Five och sedan genomföra intervjuer med 14 av dem, har det bildats enklarare uppfattning kring hur olika individer motiveras på bästa sätt. Efter att intervjuerna analyserats med hjälp av två personlighetsklassificeringsmodeller samt två motivationsteorier, har vissa skillnader funnits. Studien har fått fram både väntade samband mellan vilken personlighetstyp respondenten klassificerats som och vad denna anser sig motiveras av, men även somliga mer oväntade resultat.<br>It has become more and more common to visit different kinds of events as a way to glorify the everyday life. Usually, it is only a few people working with planning an event, but to get a successful result more staff is required, and in many cases these are consisting by volunteers. Since these people are helping without any monetary compensation, it can be hard to keep the volunteers motivated, which can be a devastating consequence for the event. Therefore, it is very much in the interest of the arrangers to keep the motivation high throughout the whole event. In this study it has been examined what differs the different personality types when it comes to motivation. By letting a number of students fill out a personality test which was based on The Big Five model and then letting 14 of them go through an interview, a clearer picture has been formed about how different individuals are getting motivated the best way. When the interviews had been analyzed through two different personality models and two motivation theories, some differences have been found. This study has found some relationships between which personality the respondent has been classified as and what they consider themselves to be motivated by. Some findings have been expected while others have been more surprising.

Syftet med detta examensarbete är att finna bakomliggande orsaker och faktorer som påverkar pojkar och deras läsning. Varför presterar pojkar sämre än jämngamla flickor på lästester i alla de länder där tester görs? Detta är något som otaliga undersökningar pekar på både i Sverige och internationellt. Ett barns framgång i läsning är en viktig del av dess utbildning. Har barnet problem på detta område så får det problem i alla ämnen. Huvudfrågan för detta examensarbete är således: varför presterar pojkar sämre än flickor i läsning? De delmoment som påverkar läsningen belyses ur flera vinklar i hopp om att lyfta fram en så övergripande bild som möjligt av detta fenomen. Detta är en litteraturstudie med fokus på forskning genomförd mellan 2007-2013. Undersökningen visar att den nivå ett barn når i sin läsning är resultatet av en ytterst komplicerad kombination av faktorer där hemförhållanden och motivation tycks väga tyngst. Samtidigt visar studien även att andra faktorer som ofta lyfts fram som mer eller mindre avgörande bygger på motsägelsefulla fakta.

The purpose of this paper was to review research within the field of digital games and language learning to explore whether gaming can facilitate communicative competence and foster motivation for language learning. To answer my questions I conducted a research synthesis, compiling a variety of research over the last decade to answer my questions as effectively as possible. Results showed that digital games do in fact facilitate language development and induce motivation. Research also showed that different games provide different opportunities and activities, resulting in some games fostering language competence more than others. For instance, World of Warcraft provided social situations where conversations were erratic, spontaneous, contextual and driven by small events in the game, while The Sims focused more on strategic and creative activities. Additionally, research suggested that digital games motivated learners to develop their L2 language in hope of achieving more goals together within a variety games and game types.

I takt med bemanningsbranschens framfart har kundföretag gått från att hyra in konsulter från bemanningsföretag för att endast täcka upp vid tillfälliga behov av personal, till att även hyra in konsulter under längre perioder. Med utgångspunkt i denna utveckling har författarna undersökt om det faktum att konsulter hyrs ut över perioder som varierar i längd, påverkar hur konsultchefer uppfattar och utformar arbetet kring sina konsulters motivation. Det teoretiska ramverket utgår från tidigare erkända teorier som behandlar motivation. Teorierna har analyserats och relevanta faktorer för motivation från dessa har kategoriserats under fyra teman: trygghet, gemenskap, uppskattning och självförverkligande. Dessa teman har legat till grund för studiens analys där variationen i den insamlade datan urskilts. Data har samlats in via semistrukturerade intervjuer med konsultchefer. Samtliga respondenter är anställda på ett av Sveriges största bemanningsföretag som bland annat hyr ut konsulter inom IT, teknik och ekonomi. Resultatet visar skillnader i hur konsultchefer uppfattar motivationsbehovet hos konsulter beroende på uppdragets tidslängd samt att arbetet kring motivation även anpassas utifrån detta behov. Brist på tid och resurser leder till att konsulter som är uthyrda på ett uppdrag längre än sex månader prioriteras. Konsultcheferna begränsas således i sitt arbete med att motivera konsulter som är uthyrda på ett uppdrag kortare än sex månader.

As a result, we found a lack of correlation between types of envy and the motivation to achieve / avoid failure, as well as competition. It is noted that the types of envy almost do not differ in the manifestation of aggressiveness and hostility. The hypothesis that envious people tend to experience a motivational conflict as a typical trait has not been confirmed, as well as the assumption that envious people are prone to risk for the sake of what is desired. We revealed the features of aggressive and conflict behavior on the way to the successful result of envious and unenvious students.<br>Зависть является негативным, разрушительным явлением для личности и ее отношений в коллективе.

Было отмечено, что виды зависти практически не различаются в проявлении агрессивности и враждебности. Гипотеза о том, что для завистников свойственно переживание мотивационного конфликта в качестве типичной черты, не подтвердилась, как и предположение о том, что завистники склонны к рискованным поступкам ради желаемого. Были выявлены особенности агрессивного и конфликтного поведения на пути к успешному результату завистливых и независтливых студентов.

Full textAbstract:
The purposes of this study were to (1) examine the effects of criterion-referenced (i.e., Programmed Practice Sheet or PPS) and norm-referenced (i.e., standardized) skill assessments on the situational motivation of junior high school physical education students (N = 507), (2) determine if student task and ego dispositions could be affected by the type of skill assessment administered, and (3) determine if having choices of skill level affects student situational motivation and perception of autonomy support. Student situational motivation, task and ego disposition, and sense of autonomy were assessed using the Situational Motivation Scale (SIMS), Perception of Success Questionnaire (POSQ), and the Self-Regulation Questionnaire-Autonomy (SRQ-A). Results revealed significant differences between the criterion-referenced/choice Group 4 and the norm-referenced/no choice Group 1 as follows: Group 4 (a) had a greater sense of identified regulation, (b) had a lesser sense of external control, and (c) was less amotivated than Group 1. Significant gender by group interactions were found, thus indicating that girls were more affected by test type than boys. Girls in Group 4 (a) felt a lesser sense of external regulation, (b) had a greater sense of identified regulation, and (c) were more intrinsically motivated than girls in Group 1. Also, girls in Group 4 (a) felt a greater sense of identified regulation and (b) were more intrinsically motivated than girls in the norm-referenced/choice Group 2. These findings provide some evidence that using criterion-referenced skill assessments, like the PPS, and offering choices of skill level may enhance student situational motivation during skill assessment. No significant differences were found in student task and ego disposition and perception of autonomy support.

Full textAbstract:
Självreglerat lärande är en metakognitiv process som visat sig främja idrottares prestation och utveckling. En förutsättning för denna process är att idrottare känner motivation till att utvecklas inom sin idrott. Hur självreglerat lärande och motivation korrelerar samt eventuella skillnader mellan lagidrottare och individuella idrottare avseende självreglerat lärande och motivation är dock relativt outforskade områden. Således var syftet med föreliggande studie att undersöka detta närmare. I studien användes ett teoretiskt ramverk baserat på Self-Regulated Learning (SRL) samt Self Determination Theory (SDT) för att undersöka dessa områden hos 102 tävlingsaktiva idrottare mellan 18-30 år (M = 23,71, SD = 3,77) i deras träningsvardag. Data samlades in genom två elektroniska självskattningsformulär: The Behavioral Regulation in Sport Questionnare (BRSQ-24) och Self-Regulated Learning-TT (SRL-TT). Variansanalyser genomfördes för att undersöka eventuella skillnader avseende SRL och motivationsform mellan respektive grupp. Korrelationsanalyser genomfördes för att undersöka sambanden mellan SRL och motivationsform. Resultaten visade att individuella idrottare skattade en signifikant högre användning av samtliga SRL-strategier än lagidrottare, medan grupperna inte skiljde sig signifikant gällande motivationsform. Vidare var sambandet mellan autonom motivation och samtliga SRL-faser signifikant positivt för hela urvalet. Resultaten kan förklaras av att det inom individuella idrotter är mer naturligt att använda självreglerat lärande samt att idrottares motivationsform och i vilken utsträckning de använder sig av SRL-strategier korrelerar. Framtida forskning kan med fördel undersöka på vilket sätt idrottares motivationsform och SRL påverkar varandra.

System of performance evaluation is an essential part of performance management and a major source of organizational control. Discussion about motivational/demotivational power of the formal and informal systems of performance evaluation for different personality types of employees opens a new page in the studies of human resource management. The following research question reflects the core of this thesis “To what extent the informal system of performance evaluation exists beside the formal system of performance evaluation and how do they operate as work motivators/demotivators for civil servants of different psychological types?”. The formal and informal systems of performance evaluation in the Office of the Prime Minister of Lithuania (OPML) are analysed using the theoretical research framework based on three different perspectives: sociology of law, human resource management and psychology. An ethnographic research, supplemented by the psychometric instrument HEXACO PI-R, is conducted to unfold the informal system of performance evaluation and to investigate its motivational/demotivation impact on two different personality types of OPML advisers (ORGANIZED and FLEXIBLE). The formal system is found to be a motivator for the ORGANIZED civil servants and demotivator for the FLEXIBLE advisers, while the informal system served as demotivator for all of the advisers who admitted its existence.

Full textAbstract:
<p><strong>Bakgrund:</strong> Förändringar i vår livsstil har lett till att diabetes typ 2 har blivit en global epidemi. Att försöka förändra beteendet och motivera patienter med diabetes typ 2 till egenvård är en central del av diabetesvården. <strong>Syfte: </strong>Beskriva olika tillvägagångssätt för sjuksköterskan att motivera patienter med diabetes typ 2 till livsstilsförändringar. <strong>Metod:</strong> En litteraturstudie baserad på 13 artiklar har gjorts. Artiklarna hittades via databaserna CINAHL och PubMed samt via manuell sökning varpå de analyserades och kvalitetsgranskades. <strong>Resultat:</strong> Patienter med diabetes typ 2 kan motiveras till livsstilförändringar genom individuell utbildning, gruppbaserad utbildning samt genom användning av motiverande samtal (MI). Vid individuell utbildning är det viktigt med ett personligt anpassat samtal. MI gjorde att patienterna förändrade sitt beteende men däremot påvisades ingen effekt på HbA1c, det långsiktiga blodsockret. Vid gruppbaserad utbildning höjdes motivationen genom stödet från gruppmedlemmarna vilket resulterade i goda livsstilsval. <strong>Slutsats:</strong> Gruppbaserad utbildning bör användas av sjuksköterskan som motivation för patienter med diabetes typ 2 till livsstilförändringar. Även individuell utbildning kan användas om fokus ligger på personligt anpassat samtal, men däremot behövs mer forskning på MI.</p><br><p><strong>Background: </strong>Changes in our lifestyle have resulted in a global epidemic of the type 2 diabetes. Essential issues for the diabetes care are to try to change the behaviour as well as motivate patients with type 2 diabetes. <strong>Aim: </strong>To describe different approaches for nurses to motivate patients with type 2 diabetes to lifestyle changes. <strong>Method: </strong>A literature review based on 13 articles, found through the database CINAHL and PubMed and through manual search, has been analyzed and quality assessed. <strong>Results: </strong>Patients with type 2 diabetes can be motivated to lifestyle changes through individual education, group education as well as through motivational interviewing (MI). In the individual education it’s important to have a personal adapted conversation. MI resulted in changes in the patients’ behaviour, but no effects have been shown on HbA1c, which is the long-term blood glucose level. Results show that the motivation increased in the group education, due to the support from other group members, and which resulted in good choices of lifestyle. <strong>Conclusion: </strong>Group education should be adopted by nurses as a method to work with motivation of patients with type 2 diabetes in order to lifestyle changes. Individual education can as well be used if the focus lies on personal adapted conversations, but however, more research is needed on the method MI.</p>

Full textAbstract:
Un sentiment de solitude survient chez un individu lorsque ses relations interpersonnelles sont insatisfaisantes, que ce soit sur le plan quantitatif ou qualitatif. Considérant que la communication interpersonnelle, qui permet la création et le maintien des relations interpersonnelles, a grandement cours par l’entremise de technologies de communication via Internet, bon nombre de recherches se sont penchées sur les liens potentiels entre les usages de ces technologies et le sentiment de solitude. Les résultats de ces travaux sont toutefois très disparates. Ainsi, la présente recherche explore cette problématique en se concentrant spécifiquement sur un dispositif de communication en particulier : le site de réseaux sociaux Facebook. Les usages de celui-ci sont conceptualisés selon un ensemble cohérent d’approches et de notions théoriques, soit les usages et gratifications, les affordances des technologies ainsi que certaines notions empruntées à la sociologie des usages (contextes de pratiques, entrelacement des usages). En ce qui concerne le sentiment de solitude, l’approche multidimensionnelle des besoins sociaux est mobilisée. Au niveau méthodologique, une méthode mixte utilisant le sondage par questionnaire comme outil de collecte de données a été préconisée. Les résultats démontrent un entrelacement des usages des différentes fonctionnalités de Facebook, ainsi que des corrélations entre certaines utilisations spécifiques de Facebook et le sentiment de solitude, tant sociale qu’émotionnelle. Ces résultats viennent s’ajouter à ceux d’autres publications récentes, qui démontrent qu’il y a effectivement des relations complexes entre les usages de Facebook et le sentiment de solitude.

Full textAbstract:
Bakgrund: Diabetes typ 2 ökar kraftigt världen över, där förändrade levnadsvanor är en bidragande faktor till utvecklingen. Motivation krävs för att kunna genomgå livsstilsförändringar och därmed behandla diabetes typ 2 och dess komplikationer. Syfte: Att undersöka vuxna patienters motivation till livsstilsförändring vid diabetes typ 2. Metod: Litteraturstudie baserat på elva vetenskapliga artiklar med kvalitativ ansats. I datainsamlingen användes databaserna PubMed och CINAHL. Valda artiklar analyserades med hjälp av statens beredning för medicinsk och social utvärderings (SBU) utarbetade granskningsmall samt Fribergs modell vid resultatanalysen. Resultat: Vuxna patienters motivation till livsstilsförändring vid diabetes typ 2 delades in i två huvudkategorier; faktorer som leder till ökad motivation respektive faktorer som leder till bristande motivation. Utifrån studiens resultat i relation till syftet kunde en stor variation i motivation noteras. Stöd från omgivningen och ökad kunskap om sin sjukdom var några faktorer som ökade motivationen. Den inre motivationen sågs också vara viktig för att genomföra livsstilsförändring. Rädsla för komplikationer och motivation relaterat till vården var andra faktorer som noterades. Faktorer som ledde till bristande motivation var förnekelse och ignorering av tillståndet, besvikelse över att inte belönas med det önskade resultatet, bristande stöd från omgivningen samt yttre faktorer. Slutsats: Alla patienter är unika individer där motivationen till att genomföra livsstilsförändring varierar. Både faktorer som leder till ökad motivation och faktorer som leder till bristande motivation förekommer. Kombinationen av dessa faktorer bidrar till denna variation. Stöd från familj, vänner och vårdpersonal ses ha en betydande roll gällande patientens motivation. Genom denna kunskap kan diabetes typ 2 behandlas och dess komplikationer förebyggas och därmed kan omfattningen av detta folkhälsoproblem minska.

Full textAbstract:
Introduktion: Sveriges befolkning är idag otillräckligt fysiskt aktiva enligt rekommendationerna som finns på minst 150 minuters fysisk aktivitet varje vecka. Detta trots att det finns många kända hälsofördelar med att vara fysiskt aktiv. Brist på motivation är en faktor som påvisats vara bidragande till att personer rör på sig för lite. Syftet med studien var därför att jämföra skillnader i typ av motivation och fysisk aktivitetsnivå och om det finns skillnader beroende på kön och ålder. Metod: Data samlades in via en onlineundersökning, där 251 deltagare mellan 18-64 år svarade på Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire-2 (BREQ-2) och The Godin-Shephard Leisure-Time Exercise Questionnaire (GLTEQ). Resultat: ANOVA visade signifikanta skillnader mellan motivationstyper och aktivitetsnivå, där personer som klassades som högaktiva hade mest motivation till fysisk aktivitet. Kvinnor hade mer introjicerad reglering och män mer identifierad reglering. Personer 18-24 år visade signifikant mer yttre reglering. Konklusion: Utifrån resultaten är det svårt att fastställa vilken motivationstyp som är mest bidragande till att personer är fysisk aktiva, däremot finns det indikationer på att all typ av motivation krävs för att vara fysiskt aktiv. Framtida forskning skulle kunna göra mer omfattande undersökningar på en bredare population för att få en mer fördjupad förståelse.<br>Introduction: The Swedish population does not meet the recommendations for 150 minutes physical activity per week, even though the health benefits from being physically active is well known. Lack of motivation is a variable that contributes to this problem and results in insufficiently physical activity. This study aimed to explore differences in types of motivation and physical activity level, and also see if there is any differences between gender and age. Methods: Participants (n = 251) between 18-64 years of age completed an online survey, based on Behavioral Regulation in Exercise Questionnaire-2 (BREQ-2) and The Godin-Shephard Leisure-Time Exercise Questionnaire (GLTEQ). Results: ANOVA showed significant differences between type of motivation and activity level. The high-active group had more motivation to physical activity than less active groups. Women had more introjected regulation than men, while men had more identified regulation than women. People between 18-24 showed significant more extrinsic regulation. Conclusion: Based on the findings, it is difficult to define which motivation type that main contributes to physical activity, but there are indications that all types of motivation is important for being physically active. Future research could do a more extended investigation on a wider population to get a deeper insight.

Full textAbstract:
Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur gymnasieelever uppfattar hur stor betydelse olika motiverande krafter har för deras egen vilja att ta eget ansvar för sina studier. Undersökningen som gjordes var kvantitativ med kvalitativa inslag. Undersökningsmetoden som användes var en enkät där frågorna var fasta men med inslag där respondenten fick möjlighet att lämna en motivering. Urvalsgruppen var en gymnasieskola där tre klasser och totalt femtiosju stycken gymnasieelever undersöktes. En operationell definition gjordes där de motiverande krafterna som fanns i skolan fick en konkret innebörd. Resultaten visade att eleverna helst av allt vill lära sig genom att diskutera och vara kommunikativt aktiva och om eleven fick chans att fördjupa sig i något ämne som de själva tyckte var intressant så ville de gärna arbeta med detta på egen hand eftersom det då blev roligt. Initiativet måste dock komma från läraren annars tyckte eleverna att tiden inte räcker till. En stor del av gymnasieeleverna såg inte heller möjligheterna med att ta eget ansvar och de eleverna tyckte bara att studierna blev jobbiga och tråkiga. De eleverna var inte in någon mån beredda att ta eget ansvar. En stor motiverande kraft i skolan var kompisar och vänner vilket studien visade var den största motiverande kraften till att vara i skolan överhuvudtaget för eleven.

Full textAbstract:
SAMMANFATTNING Bakgrund Diabetes är en världsexpanderande sjukdom där diabetes typ 2 svarar för majoriteten av personer med diabetes i världen, vilken i huvudsak är resultatet av en global ökning av kroppsvikt och fysisk inaktivitet. Fysisk aktivitet är en viktig del i behandlingen av diabetes typ 2. Trots medvetenhet om fysisk aktivitets betydelse bland personer med diabetes är det vanligt att riktlinjer avseende detta inte uppnås. Syfte Syftet var att undersöka vilka metoder som studerats för att främja fysisk aktivitet för personer med diabetes typ 2 samt att utvärdera effekten av dessa. Metod En litteraturöversikt med systematisk ansats baserad på 16 experimentella studier från databaserna Cinahl och Pubmed. Resultat I resultatet framkom sex kategorier av motivationsmetoder; gruppinterventioner, motivation med utgångspunkt från Transtheoretical model (TTM), motiverande samtal, tekniska hjälpmedel, belöning samt mål. Studiens resultat visade att stöd av andra individer både i grupp och enskilt med övergångsperiod till eget initiativ hade effekt. Användning av tekniska hjälpmedel som webbaserade träningsprogram visade också effektivitet. En långsiktig effekt gick ej att fastslå. Slutsats Det finns flera metoder som motiverar personer med diabetes typ 2 att öka nivån av fysisk aktivitet. Svårigheten ligger i att fastställa vilka metoder som är effektiva i längden. Det behövs mer forskning kring vilka metoder som är effektiva i ett längre perspektiv.<br>ABSTRACT Background The prevalence of diabetes is increasing all over the world and type 2 diabetes mellitus is the most common one. The main reason for this expansion are increasing body weight and the lack of exercise. Exercise is a main part in treatment of type 2 diabetes mellitus. Despite awareness of the importance of physical activity among diabetic patients, the desired amount is not achieved. Aim This study examined which methods that have been studied with the aim to promote physical activity for people with type 2 diabetes mellitus and to evaluate the effect of these. Method A literature review with a systematic approach based on 16 scientific original articles from the database Cinahl and Pubmed. Results The interventions aiming to increase physical activity are presented in six categories; group interventions, motivation based on Transtheoretical model (TTM), motivational support discussion, technical aids, rewards and goals. There is some evidence that the support from other individuals in a group or individually, with an adapting period to self-management, is most effective in maintaining a lifestyle change. Use of technical aids like web-based interventions also seem effective, whether they are effective on a long term is still unknown. Conclusion The results shows that there are several methods to motivate people with type 2 diabetes to increase their levels of exercise. The difficulty lies in determining the long term effect of the methods, and thereby the methods that leads to continued training after the end of the intervention, which calls for further research in this area.

Full textAbstract:
Motivational Interviewing (MI) has been shown to be effective in facilitating change in health-related behaviour in adults. The objective of this study was to examine the efficacy of MI for adolescents aged 14-17 years with type 1 diabetes. The study was divided into two parts. Study I was a randomised controlled trial (RCT) analysed by intention to treat. Sixty six adolescents with type 1 diabetes, attending diabetes clinics in South Wales, were randomly assigned to the MI intervention group (n=38) and to the control group (n=28) who received support counselling based on education and self management skills. All participants received individual sessions over 12 months. The main outcome measures were serum glycosylated haemoglobin (HbAic) concentrations and psychosocial measures which included quality of life and well- being. These were assessed at baseline, 12 months (end of intervention) and at 24 months (one year post intervention). Sixty patients completed data at 12 months. At 12 months the mean HbA C in the MI group was significantly lower than in the control group (p=0.04), after adjusting for baseline values. At 24 months follow up, this difference in HbAic had increased (p=0.003). There were differences in psychosocial variables at 12 months, with the MI group indicating more positive well-being, enhanced quality of life and differences in their personal models of illness (all p<0.001). Some of these differences were maintained at 24 months. Study II explored the relationships between quality of life and HbAic retrospectively based on a priori hypotheses. Better quality of life (satisfaction and impact) predicted reductions in HbAic at 24 months explaining 0.9% of the variance in HbAic. Conclusions: Motivational Interviewing appeared to be an effective method of facilitating adolescents with type 1 diabetes to reduce their HbAic, along with enhancements in some aspects of psychosocial functioning.

Full textAbstract:
This study is about pupils’ perception and interest in the chemistry topic and their understanding of the content of the lessons. This is made by studying pupils’ understanding and motivation based on two lessons in chemistry, a theoretical lesson and a practical lesson. The pupils’ get more curious about the subject of chemistry and environment when working with NTA-box. Eight pupils divided into two groups with four in each, have been interviewed in this study. The pupils in the first group have read a factual text in the science book about red cabbage juice and answered some questions about it. The second group have examined the chemical properties of some substances with the help of red-cabbage juice. The results from the pupil’s answers has shown that motivation of second group was higher, because most pupils thought that laboratory work is fun and they have learned a lot from the studies. However, the pupils who have read the book have been able to understand the text and explain their answers in a clear way.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立臺北科技大學<br>經營管理系碩士班<br>105<br>Along with the internet began to fast development, social media has become the channel for exchange information and emotion, the enterprise also use the platform to promote brands, while consumer’s different engage behavior is the key to success of business marketing. So, this study conduct an experiment to explore the relationship between goal types and social customer engagement experience (SCEE). In addition, this study brings autonomous motivation types (intrinsic/extrinsic motivation) and attachment types (anxious/avoidance attachment) as moderator to obtain a comprehensive research. The research results provides evidence that different goal types will generate different SCEE. And the result also shows that there are the indirect effects for two moderators between goal types and SCEE. According to the result, this study suggests that brand enterprises should offer differents of acivities and post messages so that could promote the consumer’s engagement behaviors on fanpages and bring more marketing benefits.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>臺北巿立體育學院<br>休閒運動管理學系碩士班<br>100<br>Purpose: To investigate the functional fitness and participation motivation among elderly engaging different exercise types. Method: This study conducted a survey of 100 healthy elderly, 40 males and 60 females, with an average age of 73.19. Participants were divided into two groups based on their exercise types which included group exercise and self-motivated exercise type. Participants were asked to fill out motivation questionnaires and evaluated functional fitness assessment, including upper and lower body muscle endurance, cardiorespiratory fitness, upper and lower body flexibility, balance, agility and waist. Descriptive statistics and independent sample t-test were then used to analyze the data. Results: (1) there was no significant difference in fitness between group and self-motivated exercise types, and (2) in general, group exercisers showed higher participation motivation than self-motivated exercisers. The group exercisers also showed more frequently involved social activity and better ability to manage pressure and emotions. Conclusions: Through regular exercise, elderly can maintain good functional fitness, enhance skills for daily living, furthermore, have a better interpersonal relationship, social, improve the depression and enhance positive emotions. Therefore, this study suggested that fitness instructors should create more opportunities for elderly to communicate with and have social interactions to increase their participation motivation to improve the health quality of life.

Full textAbstract:
碩士<br>國立成功大學<br>工業設計學系<br>107<br>Most of basic needs of domestic cats are met, living in the environment full of water, food, warmth and coolness. The exploratory behavior become great priority in cats life as it still need to fulfill its natural instinct, having different types of toy enrich cats life and help maintain them in shape. Cat toy as a cat product can fulfill their need to hunt, releasing pressure during remedy, and bonding human-cat relationship. Its importance is rarely being mentioned and often neglected. Yet most cat toys are designed to appeal to its owner, rather than met the cats need from the perspective of texture, size.
Behavioral experience is the focus of this study and is conducted with direct observation and focal-animal sampling. From the process of regulating subjects, procedure, environment, behaviors and experimental toy to unify the play rule to reduce the possible impact on influencing hunting behaviors. A Cat-Toy-Type Standard from the perspective of High-Play motivation is proposed of statistically significances results.
Play motivation are influenced by different toy types showed by the results, with most variety of Highly Play motivated behaviors are showed in Fishing-Rod, Motor Whirl toy. Stuffed toy, Motor Mouse and Songbird which have the smallest and biggest size only showed 2 Highly Play motivated behaviors; while no Highly Play motivated behavior is showed from Intellectual toy. Rank of High-Play motivation from Cat Toy Type is: Fishing-Rod〉 Motor Whirl〉 Stuffed= Motor Mouse= Songbird 〉 Intellectual. Experienced and Inexperienced also influenced the hunting behaviors, with more aggression showed from Experienced cats exhibiting Killbite, Hit and Kick.
Different size of toy also influenced the hunting behaviors, with muzzle movement most showed in small size. Cats Kick if it is large size, Clutch if it is fast-moving and Chew if it is songbird sounding. Most variety of behaviors are showed in slim size toy. Some cats are disinterested in motorized toys which showed fixed pattern circulation which are less close to natural prey. Random routes, speed-shifting, adding random stop seconds are recommended to simulate the natural prey.

D.Com. (Leadership in Performance and Change)<br>Against the background of the continuously increasing need of employers to attract and retain key employees and the utilisation of the rewards offering in this process, the aim of this study was firstly to determine the relationship between personality types and reward preferences. In addition, the relationship between different reward categories and underlying reward components in a total rewards framework was identified, the relationships between identified demographic variables and reward preferences were confirmed and the reward categories that contribute most to the attraction, retention and motivation of employees were identified. From the research constructs it can be seen that personality types, personality preferences and motivational theories influence the design of a total rewards framework, which, in tum, enhances the total rewards strategy and employee value proposition (EVP) of an organisation.
