The present study examined the relationship between adult attachment and subjective social status (SSS) in college students through a cross-sectional survey (Study 1) and a longitudinal study (Study 2). In Study 1, 1300 college students were recruited via research flyers and online campus advertisements. They completed measures of adult attachment…

Purpose: The use of social media for sustainable information is important since it has the potential to influence people's intentions and behaviour towards sustainability. As previous studies on social media and sustainable development have primarily focussed on Western viewpoints, this study presents a comprehensive Asian perspective by…

The university is considered an environment that favors the initiation and use of substances, especially those that are legal, such as alcohol. This consumption can be differentiated in university students, which makes it necessary to better understand this behavior. Taking into account these aspects, we analyzed the abusive consumption of…

This study examines a level and model for technology acceptability and use in online learning inside universities. The unified theory of UTAUT is used as an analysis tool. An associative quantitative method is used with a sample of 392 students. Data were collected by distributing questionnaires through a specially designed Google Form. The data…

Dan Olweus' pioneering work on traditional bullying laid the foundation for how cyberbullying is defined and measured today. Many researchers believe that these two forms of bullying share some similarities. However, two perspectives have been outlined for the relationship between traditional bullying and cyberbullying--the extension perspective…

Digital transformation and emerging technologies open a horizon to a new method of teaching and learning and revolutionizes the e-learning industry. The goal of this study is to scrutinize a proposed research model for predicting factors that influence student's behavioral intention to use e-learning system at Begum Rokeya University, Bangladesh.…

Purpose: In this study, we aim to investigate entrepreneurial intention (EI) among potential entrepreneurs who were students at Pakistan's higher education institutes (HEIs) of technical and vocational education and training (TVET). Design/methodology/approach: We used a quantitative and correlational method in this study, and we based its…

Our work contributes to existing research on student loyalty by testing a model that includes organisational justice as a predictor. In Study 1 (n = 257, Polish sample), students' perceived organisational justice of their university was a positive predictor of their loyalty. In Study 2 (n = 522, Polish sample), we replicated these findings and…

Predicting quitting rules is critical in visual search: Did I search enough for a cancer nodule in a breast X-ray or a threat in a baggage airport scanner? This study examines the predictive power of search organization indexes like best-r, mean ITD, PAO, or intersection rates as optimal criteria to leave a search in foraging (looking for several…

Objective: Rates of physical activity (PA) are low, especially among college students. Tree canopy and social capital have been correlated with higher rates of PA. This study assessed the relationship between tree canopy and social capital on minutes of PA. Participants: Students from the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, located in Southern…

Objective: Stress is a barrier to academic success for college students and the unique resilience effects of ambiguity and uncertainty tolerance have yet to be explored. We hypothesized that tolerance of ambiguity and tolerance of uncertainty relate to academic stress differently. Participants: We recruited 158 undergraduate participants from a…

This study aims to determine the predictors of cyberloafing behaviors of university students. In this context, we examined the effects of smartphone and internet addiction variables on cyberloafing levels. Besides, the mediator effect of internet addiction was determined in the impact of smartphone addiction on cyberloafing. We conducted the…

Evidence on the extent to which dropout intention can serve as a valid predictor of dropout decisions remains scarce. This study first presents the results of a systematic literature review of 14 studies examining the relationship between dropout intention and actual dropout in post-secondary education (vocational education and training [VET] or…

This study explored the role of Education for Sustainable Development (ESD) in shaping sustainable consumption behaviours (SCB) among international students in Japan and South Africa, utilising the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) as a framework. The research aimed to examine how ESD influences attitudes towards sustainability (ATS), subjective…

This study analyzes the predictive factors influencing the entrepreneurial intentions of students at higher education institutions (HEIs) in a peripheral European region. The study includes a sample of 594 students and uses structural equation models for data analysis. The results show that the attitude to behavior and perceived behavioral control…
