The Relationship

The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between intramural sports participation and sense of community among college students. Study participants ( n = 250) completed the Sense of Community Index-2 (SCI-2) (Chavis, Lee, & Acosta, 2008) measuring four factors that contribute to one's sense of community (SOC): membership, influence, integration and fulfillment of needs, and shared emotional connection (McMillan & Chavis, 1986). Regression analysis was used to test for significant predictors of sense of community, including length of intramural sports participation, frequency of intramural sports participation, campus classification, and service as a team captain. Results indicated that under class students experience greater levels of overall SOC and students who participated longer in intramural sports experienced higher levels of SOC. Suggestions based upon the results of the study are also presented, regarding intramural sports marketing, programming, and retention.

A total of 81 undergarduate psychology students were recruited in this study from a private university in Jogjakarta. 29.6% (24) of the sample were males and 70.4% (57) were females Regression analysis was used to predict the model. This model regression predict relationship between gratitude and forgiveness with happiness, explaining 28.9% of the variance (Adjusted R<sup>2</sup>= 0.289).Gratitude give the biggest contribution to happiness (b= .536 p= .000), but forgiveness has no significance relationship to happiness (b= .078, p= .414). This result means that gratitude is an important factor contribute to happiness among undergraduate student in this sample. The implication of study are discussing further.</p>

The Relationship

This experiment was designed to test the hypotheses that the relationship between personality and attitude change is affected by the type of persuasive communication and that the relationship between personality, attitude change, and type of appeal would be different for the two sexes. 280 college students were randomly divided into three treatment conditions. Each group received either a factual, emotional, or conforming appeal. Measures of anxiety (MAS), self-concept (S-C), authoritarianism (F), and intolerance of ambiguity (IA) were obtained for each student. A multiple regression analysis was conducted for each treatment and sex group with attitude change scores used as the dependent variable. Significant F ratios for the cumulative regression were found for males receiving the conforming message and for females receiving the conforming and emotional appeals. No personality measure was associated with attitude change following the factual appeal for either sex, or for the emotional appeal for the males. For the males in the con forming-appeal treatment IA was positively correlated with attitude change, while MAS and F were negatively correlated. For females in the conforming-appeal treatment S-C was positively correlated and MAS negatively correlated, while MAS was positively correlated in the emotional treatment. The results were interpreted as supporting the basic hypotheses and suggest that considerable attention must be given to the appeal used to induce attitude change in studies investigating personality and persuasibility.

The Relationship

In adolescence, there are several developmental tasks that must be faced, one of which is the development of autonomy. Role of parents can’t be separated on the formation of adolescent autonomy because of an emotional connection between parents and adolescence. Emotional connection that persists for long periods is called attachment. This study aimed to determine the relationship between parent-adolescent attachment with adolescent autonomy in SMKN 1 Denpasar.   The sampling technique used in this study is simple random sampling. Subjects of this research are 330 students in SMKN 1 Denpasar, from age 15-18 years old. Researcher deploy two scales, the parent-adolescent attachment scale adapted from the Inventory Parent and Peer Attachment (Armsden & Greenberg, 1987) and autonomy scale is based on aspects that proposed by Steinberg (2009). The data obtained in this study were analyzed by simple regression analysis to examine the relationship between parent-adolescent attachment and autonomy.   Regression analysis results t value 3,652 and P = 0.000 (P < 0.05). It means attachment to parents and adolescent autonomy are significantly and positively correlated, when parent-adolescent’s attachment is high they will have a high score on autonomy too. Coefficient of determination equal to 0.039 indicates the attachment contribution to the autonomy is 3,9%, and  96,1% was contributed by other factors such as gender, birth order, school activities and community activities.   Keywords: attachment, autonomy, adolescence.

General Self Efficacy

This study demonstrates the negative moderating effect of general self-efficacy on the relationship between need for cognition, which refers to stable individual differences in people's tendencies to engage in and enjoy cognitive activity, and cognitive effort. This negative moderating effect of general self-efficacy has been termed “plasticity.” Scholars assume the relationship between need for cognition and cognitive effort is true by definition. The study uses data from 144 U.S. college students and employs moderated regression analysis followed by subgroup analysis to demonstrate plasticity. The results set a boundary condition to the generally presumed relationship between need for cognition and cognitive effort, thereby improving the understanding of how these phenomena are related.

First Generation College

College graduates need to have specific leadership-related skills, behaviors, and traits when entering the workforce. Campus involvement is one way for students to develop such areas. Therefore, this qualitative study explored the self-reported leadership skills of first-generation college students who were actively participating in intramural sports. Twelve students from a 4-year public university in the Northeast were interviewed about the research-driven photographs they submitted depicting leadership skills they engaged in during intramural sports participation. Photograph captions and interviews were analyzed using Kouzes and Posner’s (2014) leadership model. Findings revealed that students reported engaging in behaviors and actions aligned with the leadership practices described by Kouzes and Posner (2014). These findings can help inform the decisions campus recreation professionals make about the role leadership development plays in program offerings.
