The purpose of this study was to examine the inXuence of Bandura’s (1997) hypothesized sources of self-eYcacy on the academic and self-regulatory eYcacy beliefs of entering middle school students (ND 263) and to explore whether these sources diVer as a function of gender, reading ability, and race/ethnicity. For the full sample, mastery experience, vicarious experience, social persuasions, and ...

The paper explores the design of spatial sequence on the basis of the user experience and the virtual reality technology in interaction environments. First, for people’s physiological and psychological feelings in the process of experiencing the space, the paper analyses the thought about five senses and the abstract thought from the thought field. Then it analyses the balance of the psychologi...

Gratitude is a complex emotional feeling associated with universally desirable positive effects in personal, social, and physiological domains. Why or how gratitude achieves these functional outcomes is not clear. Toward the goal of identifying its' underlying physiological processes, we recently investigated the neural correlates of gratitude. In our study, participants were exposed to gratitu...

In intensive care physiological variables of the critically ill are measured and recorded in short time intervals. The proper extraction and interpretation of the information contained in this flood of information can hardly be done by experience alone. Intelligent alarm systems are needed to provide suitable bedside decision support. So far there is no commonly accepted standard for detecting ...

Physiological computing involves the direct interfacing of human physiology and computer technology, i.e. brain–computer interaction (BCI). The goal of physiological computing is to transform bioelectrical signals from the human nervous system into real-time computer input in order to enhance and enrich the interactive experience. Physiological computing has tremendous potential for interactive...

Naval cohorts rely heavily on personnel to ensure the efficient running of naval organisations. As such, the wellbeing of personnel is essential. In an occupational setting, naval service personnel experience a variety of physiological and psychological stressors. Most naval services arrange annual physical fitness and body composition tests to ensure the physical readiness of personnel. Howeve...
