The Impact

AbstractChanging technology has accelerated the intersection between gaming and gambling products and practices, generated new products and thus created concerns about the impact of things like loot boxes or social casinos. Games which incorporate gambling-like practices (aside from generating profit) reflect the increasing normalisation of gambling within everyday life but these games also become accelerants of this trend, through the vast power and reach they have, especially among young people. Attention tends to focus on whether these practices should be defined as “gambling” or not. Whilst important, this arguably misses a range of other considerations—such as the potential exploitative or coercive nature of these products and the mechanics that underlie them. Games and gambling tend to be viewed as distinct practices but increasing intersection of products, practices and common mechanics used by both means they are increasingly viewed as intertwined, where the improbity of each will likely reflect on the other.

Sports Activities

Smoking and alcohol consumption is a growing trend among young people worldwide. The purpose of this study was to provide students with a comparative analysis of adherence to harmful habits (smoking and alcohol) on the one hand and the frequency of sports and academic performance on the other, taking into account gender differences. The research was conducted in 2019-2020 in 5 cities of Russia; the sample included 1500 people aged 18.4 ± 1.1 years, divided into three equal groups. The control (first) group had students who are not engaged in sports, and the second group comprised students practicing sports but not professionally. The third group was made up of student-athletes. All participants were surveyed to determine the frequency of adherence to harmful habits. In the control group, boys smoked 50% more often than girls (p ≤ 0.05), while in the third group, smoking among boys was registered 70 times less often (p ≤ 0.001). Alcohol consumption in controls was 0.5 times more likely among boys (p ≤ 0.05). Harmful habits affect young people's free time and reduce their academic performance and ability to practice sports.

The Impact

The aim of the paper is to examine the impact of identity politics on national integration in Nigeria. This paper relies on secondary sources of data, and contends that identity politics can create the necessary awareness and actions needed to redress the inequities promoted by the structural imbalance of the Nigerian State. The redress of the inequities can be a stabilizing force necessary for the actualization of national integration in Nigeria. On the other hand, it argues that identity politics can also be a divisive factor which can seriously threaten the corporate existence of Nigeria and make our quest for integration illusory. Also, the paper is  of the view that national integration can be achieved when identity politics is guided by certain objective conditions expressed in democracy. Therefore, it recommends that there should be an internalization and demonstration of the democratic culture in everyday life of Nigerians.

The Impact

This study attempted to discover and analyse the impact of violent online games on the players’ language and behavior as well as how these expressions might harm, intimidate, and damage others’ face. It is worth mentioning that online games become the young’s playground where they interact with others and may adopt a certain type of language and behavior.  As players engage in a competitive fight of characters, they use certain communicative styles to express their feelings and emotions, including impolite expressions. Hence, this paper looked into these expressions, their responses to those expressions, and the reasons behind them. In addition, this study identified whether there is any impact in choosing these impolite expressions. Moreover, these violent gaming can provide a good field of investigation because impoliteness is widely occurring in such situations, through which people from various cultures, ages and genders come in contact to fight each other, be uncivil, and criticize and damage the other’s face. Moreover, these games may even encourage certain harmful impolite terminology and aggressive behavior to inter the players ‘repertoire and become the language of everyday use. In gathering the data, impolite expressions were collected by participating in some battles involving abusive and impolite words. Based on the results obtained, the study reached some conclusions that Culpeper’s (2005) and Spencer-Oatey’s (2002 and 2005) models are applicable in the context of violent online games. There is a big tendency that young people adopt and use various impolite expressions according to their gender and their relations for many reasons. In addition, it is widely recognized that most players have limited politeness competence and directly reply to others’ impolite language with hostility. Finally yet importantly, positive impoliteness strategies are used more than the other models, whereas quality of face was the most damaged one in Spencer-Oatey model.

Educational Field

If it is the case that mobile devices, with their specific social and technological structures and attendant cultural practices, have become an integral part of everyday life, then the educational field has to react. But how and who? Fact is that mobile devices have reached and become fully integrated in everyday life, worldwide and across social milieus. This development is «ubiquitous» (e.g. Haythornthwaite, 2008, Beale 2007, Nyiri 2002) and is accompanied by an increase in individualisation enabled and necessitated by a variety of mobile devices characterised by media convergence. Education must ask questions about the impact of these irreversible trends on the personal development of young people and about its role in mediating them as well as about their impact on individual agency of young people in the context of emerging socio-cultural structures (see Stald 2007).

The Impact

Abstrak Selain ekonomi dan kesehatan, dampak lain dari pandemi COVID-19 ini juga berdampak kepada moralitas seseorang khususnya para remaja di Indonesia ini. Pentingnya pendidikan moral di masa pandemi ini khusus para remaja memang sangat diperlukan. Pasalnya jika hal tersebut tidak bisa cepat diselesaikan, maka dampak dari krisis moralitas akan menjadi panjang. Krisis moral yang tengah terjadi di Indonesia ini cukup banyak, misalnya anak muda kita sudah mulai menghilangkan budaya berkata “tolong”, “maaf”, dan ”terima kasih”. Ketiga hal tersebut merupakan hal dasar dalam beretika, dan kini hal dasar dalam beretika saja mereka tidak gunakan dalam kehidupan sehari-hari. Hal tersebut terjadi karena para remaja Indonesia kurang melakukan literasi dan menyaring budaya luar yang masuk ke dalam negeri kita. Dengan melakukan pendidikan karakter kepada mereka dan membantu mereka untuk memperbaiki moralitas mereka, maka krisis moralitas yang tengah terjadi bisa perlahan diperbaiki dan dampak baik tersebut akan berpengaruh besar terhadap generasi anak muda yang akan datang. Abstract In addition to the economy and health, other impacts of the COVID-19 virus pandemic also have an impact on one's morality, especially teenagers in Indonesia. The importance of moral education in this pandemic period, especially for teenagers, is needed. The reason is that if this cannot be resolved quickly, the impact of the morality crisis will belong. There are many moral crises currently happening in Indonesia, for example, our young people have started to eliminate the culture of saying “please”, ”sorry”, and “thank you”. These three things are basic things in ethics, and now they don't use the basic things in ethics in everyday life. This happens because Indonesian youth lack literacy and filter out foreign cultures that enter our country. By conducting character education for them and helping them to improve their morality, the current moral crisis can be slowly remedied and this good impact will have a major impact on the next generation of young people.
