This research is motivated by the poor comprehension and creativity of elementary school students in science lessons. This study aimed to determine gamification's effect on improving learning outcomes in concept comprehension and creative thinking skills in students studying science. Achievement motivation is suspected of being involved as a variable that interacts with gamification in improving learning outcomes. The data analysis technique used the Multivariate Analysis test. The research subjects were 73 students in the control class and the experimental class. This research is a quasi-experimental research, with a 2x2 factorial, and pretest-posttest non-equivalent control group design. The experimental class uses mixed gamification, while the control class uses content gamification. The difference between the two lies in the gamification elements used. The study results showed that 1) there was no significant difference in the learning outcomes of conceptual comprehension between groups of students who used mixed gamification and content gamification; 2) there was no significant difference in the learning outcomes of conceptual comprehension between groups of students who have high achievement motivation and low achievement motivation; 3) there was no interaction between gamification (mixed gamification and content gamification) and achievement motivation on learning outcomes comprehension the concept; 4) there was no significant difference in the learning outcomes of creative thinking between groups of students who use mixed gamification and content gamification; 5) there was no significant difference in the learning outcomes of creative thinking between groups of students who have high achievement motivation and low achievement motivation; 6) there was no interaction between gamification (mixed gamification and content gamification) and achievement motivation on learning outcomes to think creatively. Achievement motivation is not the only factor that affects the learning outcomes of concept comprehension and creative thinking. Future research is important to consider the different moderator variables from achievement motivation and other gamification elements.

INTRODUCTION: U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) female aircrew represent a small group of military personnel in challenging high-risk, high-demand professions. Personality characteristics may play a key role in distinguishing those women who pursue a career as a special operations aircrew member and succeed in this pursuit. Having access to normative personality data can potentially support psychologists in assessing AFSOC female aircrew and subsequently making informed recommendations to leadership.METHODS: A total of 586 AFSOC aircrew trainees58 (9.9%) women and 528 (90.1%) mencompleted a series of computer-based psychological tests to assess cognitive ability and personality traits.RESULTS: Results indicated significant differences between female AFSOC aircrew and female civilians on four of the five NEO Personality Inventory domains: Neuroticism (M 74.9 vs. M 87.1), Extraversion (M 123.7 vs. M 112.8), Openness to Experience (M 122.6 vs. M 111.0), and Conscientiousness (M 136.0 vs. M 120.6), respectively. The comparison between female AFSOC aircrew and male AFSOC aircrew revealed significant differences across three of the five domains: Neuroticism (M 74.9 vs. M 65.1), Openness to Experience (M 122.6 vs. M 115.0), and Agreeableness (M 119.6 vs. M 112.7), respectively.DISCUSSION: Implications for assessment and interpretation of psychological testing are discussed. This paper provides a unique perspective and insight into those who pursue and excel in this career field. Identifying specific personality traits in our AFSOC female aircrew allows for tailored care and support when evaluating readiness in special operations aircrew for optimizing performance.Chappelle W, Shadle AH, Martinez RN, Reardon LE, Goodman T, Spencer H, Thompson W.

The Relationship

This study explored the relationship between achievement motivation and economic development in a small midwestern community; specifically, the study investigates the following question: Is remaining in a community or moving away a function of congruency between individual achievement motivation and the stage of the community's development? For this community, the answer seems a qualified “yes.” When the community was “achieving,” those high school graduates with high achievement motivation tended to remain in the community; those with low achievement motivation moved away. The reverse was found when the community became stable and then declined.

Abstract: Developing Learning Materials Based on Training Within Industry (TWI) to Improve the Building Construction Student’s Learning Outcomes.This second study aims to test significances differences between (1) using teaching materials with TWI method and the conventional method; (2) the high achievement motivation students and the low achievement motivation students; and (3) learning structures (TWI method and conventional method) and the high achievement motivation and the low achievement motivation toward the students’ learning outcomes. This study is an experimental research for students who take the Bricklaying and Concrete Practice lesson in an academic year. The hypothesis test uses two-way variance analysis (ANAVA) to find out the differences in the mean between cells (A and B). The results showed that there were significant differences in the students’ learning outcome be­tween (1) the TWI teaching materials and conventional method; (2) the students who have the high achievement motivation and the students who have the low achievement motivation. Furthermore, there were significant interactions between factor of giving the vocational work practices and motivation to­ward the students’ learning outcomes.

Purpose This paper aims to identify the personality traits (agreeableness, openness to experience, extraversion, conscientiousness and neuroticism) of library and information science (LIS) students in Pakistan. The difference among the personality traits of LIS students toward their information needs and seeking behavior is also analyzed. Design/methodology/approach Two instruments, namely, BFI scale and a self-structured instrument were used to collect the data. Kruskal–Wallis test was applied to find out differences among the personality traits of LIS students toward their information needs and seeking behavior. Findings Findings of the study revealed that out of 320 respondents, 186 possessed openness to experience, while only 7 possessed extraversion personality trait. Moreover, the students having extraversion personality trait were, generally, more concerned toward information needs. On the other hand students having conscientious trait were increasingly more seekers of information. Overall, the conscientiousness was identified as the most suitable personality trait for LIS students. A significant difference was also observed among all the personality traits of LIS students. Practical implications The findings of this study will help in the identification of LIS individual’s personality. The library managers can use these personality traits for the selection of suitable library professionals for their libraries. Originality/value This study can be valuable for the induction of new library professionals and also help managers in assigning the duties based on these personality traits.
