ABSTRACT

This study investigates the determinants of the international promotion of the Korean language at the cross-country level. The analysis is based on candidate data drawn from the Test of Proficiency in Korean (TOPIK) and uses a cross-country panel data model to measure how several factors affect Korea's international promotion. To mitigate sample selection bias, we estimated the model using the Heckman two-step method. The findings show that factors such as the Hallyu (or "Korean Wave"), international business, motivation to migrate to South Korea, motivation to study in South Korea, and Korean language learning resources play essential roles in the international promotion of Korean. The development level of the sample countries influenced the importance of each factor. For example, Hallyu, often regarded as important for the international promotion of Korean, was shown to be statistically significant only in the sample of developed countries. In addition, a shortage of Korean language learning resources has been identified as a major impediment to the promotion of Koreans in developing countries. These results provide new insights that can assist in formulating policies to promote the Korean language worldwide.

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Training in hand hygiene for health care workers is essential to reduce hospital-acquired infections. Unfortunately, training in this competency may be perceived as tedious, time-consuming, and expendable. In preceding studies, our working group detected overconfidence effects in the self-assessment of hand hygiene competencies. Overconfidence is the belief of being better than others (overplacement) or being better than tests reveal (overestimation). The belief that members of their profession are better than other professionals is attributable to the clinical tribalism phenomenon. The study aimed to assess the correlation of overconfidence effects on hand hygiene and their association with four motivational dimensions (intrinsic, identified, external, and amotivation) to attend hand hygiene training. Methods: We conducted an open online convenience sampling survey with 103 health care professionals (physicians, nurses, and paramedics) in German, combining previously validated questionnaires for (a) overconfidence in hand hygiene and (b) learning motivation assessments. Statistics included parametric, nonparametric, and cluster analyses. Results: We detected a quadratic, u-shaped correlation between learning motivation and the assessments of one's own and others' competencies. The results of the quadratic regressions with overplacement and its quadratic term as predictors indicated that the model explained 7% of the variance of amotivation (R2 = 0.07; F(2, 100) = 3.94; p = 0.02). Similarly, the quadratic model of clinical tribalism for nurses in comparison to physicians and its quadratic term explained 18% of the variance of amotivation (R2 = 0.18; F(2, 48) = 5.30; p = 0.01). Cluster analysis revealed three distinct groups of participants: (1) "experts" (n1 = 43) with excellent knowledge and justifiable confidence in their proficiencies but still motivated for ongoing training, and (2) "recruitables" (n2 = 43) who are less competent with mild overconfidence and higher motivation to attend training, and (3) "unawares" (n3 = 17) being highly overconfident, incompetent (especially in assessing risks for incorrect and omitted hand hygiene), and lacking motivation for training. Discussion: We were able to show that a highly rated self-assessment, which was justified (confident) or unjustified (overconfident), does not necessarily correlate with a low motivation to learn. However, the expert's learning motivation stayed high. Overconfident persons could be divided into two groups: motivated for training (recruitable) or not (unaware). These findings are consistent with prior studies on overconfidence in medical and non-medical contexts. Regarding the study's limitations (sample size and convenience sampling), our findings indicate a need for further research in the closed populations of health care providers on training motivation in hand hygiene.

ABSTRACT

Este estudo apresenta uma revisão do escopo de artigos que investigaram as atribuições causais intrapessoais na educação básica. As 46 pesquisas analisadas dataram de 1973 a 2020. Como resultado, contabilizaram-se 34 instrumentos de avaliação das atribuições causais para situações gerais e específicas na escola, sendo reportada na maior parte dos estudos a presença de suas propriedades psicométricas. Os achados indicaram uma ampliação das causas avaliadas, para além da capacidade, esforço, dificuldade da tarefa e sorte. Os instrumentos foram utilizados em estudos de desenho transversal e longitudinal, envolvendo amostras de quatro continentes. Verificaram-se associações das atribuições causais com variáveis intraindividuais e contextuais. Os programas de retreinamento atribucional centralizaram-se no esforço e na capacidade. Os pesquisadores sugerem que as intervenções sejam conduzidas por meio de instruções diretas e de modelação. Conjectura-se que estes achados podem nortear o desenvolvimento de novas pesquisas, bem como fundamentar práticas avaliativas e interventivas no campo da motivação para aprendizagem.


This study presents a scoping review of papers that investigated the intrapersonal causal attributions in primary education. The 46 papers analyzed dated from 1973 to 2020. As a result, we accounted for 34 assessment tools to evaluate the construct for general and specific situations at school. The papers indicated the psychometric properties for most of these tests. Besides de and the ability, effort, difficulty of the task, and luck, the findings also indicated other attributional causes. The instruments were used in studies of cross-sectional and longitudinal design involving samples from four continents. The studies indicated the associations between causal attributions with intra-individual and contextual variables. Attributional retraining programs focused on effort and capacity through direct instruction and modeling applied by teachers. These findings may guide the development of new research on the topic and support the assessment and interventional practices in motivation for learning.

ABSTRACT

Resumen En este estudio experimental se presentan los resultados de un programa psicoeducativo de mindfulness sobre la motivación del logro y motivación para el aprendizaje aplicado a una muestra de estudiantes inmigrantes de origen latinoamericano que viven en el sureste español. La muestra se compone de 50 estudiantes, de los cuales 25 forman el grupo experimental y 25 el grupo de control. El programa de intervención se llevó a cabo durante 10 semanas. Los resultados muestran diferencias estadísticamente significativas entre los grupos en la variable motivación de logro y en tres de las seis dimensiones de la variable motivación para el aprendizaje (autoeficacia, control y ansiedad). El estudio confirma la eficacia del programa de mindfulness para mejorar los niveles de motivación del logro y la motivación para el aprendizaje en los jóvenes latinoamericanos procedentes de la inmigración. Se destaca la conveniencia de la utilización de estos programas dentro del currículum educativo.


Abstract In this experimental study, we present the results of a mindfulness psycho-educational program on achievement motivation and motivation for learning applied to a sample of immigrant students of Latin American origin living in southeastern Spain. The sample consists of 50 students, of which 25 form the experimental group and 25 the control group. The intervention program was carried out for 10 weeks. The results show statistically significant differences between both groups in motivation for achievement and in three of the six dimensions of motivation for learning (self-efficacy, control and anxiety). The study confirms the effectiveness of the mindfulness program to improve the levels of achievement motivation and motivation for learning in Latin American youth immigrants. The convenience of using these programs within the educational curriculum is highlighted.

ABSTRACT

This paper reports the study of evidence of the validity of concurrent criterion to the Causal Attributions Assessment Scale for Basic Education (EAVAT-EF). The factors Causes for Success and Causes for Failure constitute the scale. Participated in this study 927 students (3rd to 9th grades, M age = 11.59, SD = 1.98), mostly girls (53.9%), being 147 retained students. The results indicated the predisposition of Elementary School students to indicate the factor Causes for Success. The girls and non-repeating students scored higher on both EAVAT-EF factors. The Middle School students and the retained students by the criterion of school grade had a higher average in the factor Causes for Failure. As a discussion, we point to teaching-learning particularities between education levels, the possible impacts on causal attributions due to the interaction between the variables gender and repetition, as well as the interference of the disapproved criteria in students' attributions.


Este artigo reporta o estudo de evidências de validade de critério concorrente da Escala de Avaliação das Atribuições de Causalidade para Alunos do Ensino Fundamental (EAVAT-EF), constituída pelos fatores Causas para o Sucesso e Causas para o Fracasso. Responderam à escala 927 alunos (do terceiro ao nono ano; Midade = 11,59; DP = 1,98), em maioria meninas (53,9%), sendo 147 repetentes. Os resultados indicaram a predisposição dos alunos do ensino fundamental I a indicar o fator Causas para o Sucesso. As médias das meninas e dos alunos não repetentes sobressaíram nos dois fatores da EAVAT-EF. Examinou-se que os alunos do ensino fundamental II e reprovados por ano escolar obtiveram pontuações mais elevadas no fator Causas para o Fracasso. São discutidas particularidades do ensino-aprendizagem entre os níveis de ensino, os possíveis impactos nas atribuições causais devido à interação entre as variáveis sexo e repetência, bem como a interferência dos critérios de reprovação nas crenças atribucionais.


Este artículo reporta el estudio de evidencias de validez de criterio concurrente de la Escala de Evaluación de las Atribuciones de Causalidad para Alumnos de la Educación Básica (EAVAT-EF) - factores Causas para el Éxito (CE) y Causas para el Fracaso (CF). Participaron 927 alumnos del primer y segundo ciclo de la enseñanza fundamental (3º al 9º año, Medad = 11,59, DP = 1,98) - mayoría niñas (53,9%), siendo 147 alumnos repitentes. Se identificó la predisposición del primer ciclo a indicar las CE. Las niñas y los alumnos sin historial de repetición se sobresalieron en la EAVAT-EF. Los alumnos del segundo ciclo y reprobados por año escolar, han sido mejores en las CF. Se discuten las particularidades de la enseñanza-aprendizaje entre los ciclos, los posibles impactos en las atribuciones causales debido a la interacción entre las variables sexo y repetencia, y la interferencia de los criterios de reprobación en las creencias atribucionales.

ABSTRACT

O presente estudo tem como objetivo investigar a influência da anomiaorganizacional sobre a motivação para a aprendizagem em funcionários técnicoadministrativos de uma Instituição Federal de Ensino Superior de um estado do sudestebrasileiro. A anomia organizacional é definida como um sentimento de descrença porparte do trabalhador em relação á efetividade das normas que orientam o funcionamentoda organização. Em tal contexto, a hipótese é que a motivação para aprendizagem seráafetada negativamente, uma vez que as práticas da organização tendem a se basear, defato, em normas grupais ou mesmo individuais. Participam do estudo 188 funcionáriosda IFES¹, sendo 114 homens e 74 mulheres, com idade variando de 21 a 40 anos(média de 45,98 anos, dp 12,87). Como hipotetizado, a modelagem de equaçõesestruturais (MEE) revelou uma influência negativa, significativa da anomia organizacionalsobre a motivação para aprendizagem. Não são encontradas diferenças significativasnas variáveis do estudo em grupo, constituídas em função do sexo e do estado civil. Asconclusões indicam a importância do estudo da anomia organizacional para atividadesde Treinamento, Desenvolvimento e Educação nas organizações. Os resultados sugerema necessidade de desenvolvimento de estudos posteriores que permitam compreender opapel da anomia organizacional para a explicação do comportamento humano nasorganizações(AU)


The present study aimed to investigate the influence of organizational anomieon motivation for learning in technical administrative staff of a Federal Institution ofHigher Education of a Brazilian southeastern state. Organizational anomie can be definedas a feeling of disbelief on the part of the worker in relation to the effectiveness ofthe rules that guide the functioning of the organization. In this context, the hypothesisis that the motivation for learning will be negatively affected, since the organization’s practices tend to be based in fact, in group or even individual standards . The studyincluded 188 employees at IFES¹, with 114 men and 74 women, aged 21-40 years(mean 45.98 years, SD 12,87) . As hypothesized, the structural equation modeling (SEM ) revealed a significant negative influence organizational anomie on motivation forlearning. No significant differences were found in the variables of the study groupconstituted on the basis of sex and marital status. The findings indicate the importanceof the study of organizational anomie for Training, Education and Development activitiesin organizations. The results suggest the need to develop further studies to understandthe role of organizational anomie for the explanation of human behavior in organizations(AU)

ABSTRACT

La investigación se centra en la percepción del rendimiento académico de estudiantes de pregrado de Odontología de la Universidad del Desarrollo, Concepción, Chile, contrastándola con distintas variables vinculadas a este concepto, con el objetivo de establecer una visión completa por medio de las asociaciones estadísticas existentes entre ellas. La investigación es de tipo cuantitativo, comparativo, transversal, se utilizó una encuesta validada por expertos y mediante un pilotaje, de la cual derivó una base de datos analizada mediante el programa SPSS®. Los datos tienen una distribución paramétrica, utilizando el test de Kolmogorov-Smirnov, posteriormente se aplica la prueba de t-Student. Los resultados demuestran que la percepción del redimiendo académico se vincula con variables que se asocian al propio estudiante y a variables que son consideradas exógenas por ellos. Se concluye que la percepción del rendimiento es una construcción socio-educacional constituida por múltiples variables que interaccionan y redundan en un resultado de calificación formal(AU)


This research work focused on the perception of the academic achievement of the undergraduate students of dentistry in Universidad del Desarrollo, Concepcion, Chile, by making a comparison with several variables linked to this concept in order to set an overall vision through the statistical associations among them. This is a cross-sectional, comparative and quantitative research using an expert-validated survey and pilotage from which a SPSS program-analyzed database was derived. Data were distributed parametrically; the Kolmogorov-Smirnow test and the t-Student test were applied. The results proved that the perceptions of academic achievement are linked with variables that are in turn associated to the student and to exogenous variables. It was concluded that the perception of the academic achievement is a social-educational construction made up of many interacting variables that have a bearing on the result of a formal qualification(AU)
