The L2 Motivational Self System (L2MSS) determines an individual's motivation in second language learning and influences the experience intended effort. Although physical activity (PA) has been shown to enhance academic efficacy, role of PA whether it promotes efficacy not elucidated. Therefore, present study examined as a mediator explored its ameliorative effects L2MSS. A total 981 international students from different countries were selected 8 universities Beijing research subjects surveyed by International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ), L2MSS, Learning Experience Scale, Intended Effort Scale. Differences, correlations, mediated model analyzed ANOVA, Pearson, structural equation modeling (SEM). proportions this comparable those observed previous studies, with lowest prevalence individuals exhibiting high levels PA, followed medium levels, highest low levels. With exception ideal self, had significant enhancing effect on experience, effort (F = 2.36, η²=0.05, ; F 3.16, η²=0.04, 2.33, η²=0.05; P < 0.05), was incrementally associated ought-to l2 endeavor degree, time spent 4.23, 7.21, 5.93, η²=0.03; 0.01). In terms there general positive correlations between rest indicators (r > 0.3, except for desire self 0.293). According SEM test, addition direct L2MSS effort, following paths existed: (1) ILS→PA→IE (effect=-0.265, ratio 31.28%, 95%CI=[0.124, 0.527]), (2) OLS→PA→IE (effect 0.179, 17.94%, 95%CI=[0.074, 0.256]), (3) ILS→PA→LE→IE 0.116, 10.69%, 95%CI=[0.042, 0.248]), (4) OLS→PA→LE→IE 0.108, 4.15%, 95%CI=[0.039, 0.126]). indirect effect为0.304 (ratio 59.61%, 95%CI=[0.069, 0.289]). increasing level increased significance effect. positively predicts is important process that so MPA at least 3 days week can increase efficiency learning. This will provide referable predictive richer theoretical foundation Chinese dissemination.

Mechanisms of Change in a Digital Five Ways to Wellbeing Intervention: A Network Intervention Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial

Published: April 13, 2024

While digital positive psychology interventions demonstrate effectiveness in promoting wellbeing and reducing illbeing the general population, their mechanisms of change are relatively underexplored. The promotive intervention, Five Ways to Wellbeing for All (5waysA), has been shown effective (effect sizes from .20 .49) a large (N= 963) randomized controlled trial (Prydz et al., 2024). In present study, Network Intervention Analysis (NIA) was applied identify associations putative linking 5waysA intervention set outcomes. Following 10-week period, NIA revealed that only emotions on an aggregate level were conditionally dependent treatment allocation variable. These findings suggest primarily reflects direct enhancement emotions. Our provide insights potential importance advancing theoretical framework other mental health interventions.
