Yarmouk University

The study aimed to identify the most common dimensions of the future time perspective and to know the level of self-regulated learning among Yarmouk University students. It also aimed to investigate the predictive ability of the dimensions of the future time perspective in self-regulated learning. The study sample consisted of 704 students, 335 males and 369 females, who were selected based on a convenience sample method from among the students enrolled in the compulsory university requirements during the summer semester of the academic year 2017/2018. To achieve the objectives of the study, the Zimbardo and Boyed’s (1999) measure was used to measure the future time perspective, and Purdie’s scale for measuring self-regulated learning. The results showed that the future dimension was the most common among the sample of the study, and that the level of self-regulated learning was moderate, whether at the total score or the various dimensions. The study concluded that the dimensions of the future time perspective explained 18.8% of the variance in self-regulated learning.

Laboratory Task

The purpose of this study was to test whether persons of global-passive cognitive style would be more influenced in their affective view of the future by a momentary experience of success and/or failure than active-analytic Ss. 60 university students were tested for cognitive style and subjected to one successful, failure, or neutral experience. The simple experience of success or failure in a laboratory task appeared to have, at least temporarily, a diffuse effect on the global-passive Ss' affective view of the future.

Future Plans

Research has shown the importance of prospective thinking in the understanding of individual behaviour across different contexts. However, there has not been extensive attention paid to individuals’ future time perspective (FTP) in non-normative contexts, such as prison, especially using qualitative research methods. In this study, we qualitatively analyse the FTP of 16 Portuguese male prisoners, ranging in age from 24 to 51 years ( M = 35, SD = 8 (idem)) and serving sentences from one to 25 years ( M = 8.6, SD = 7.3). Through content analysis of data obtained in semi-structured interviews, four main categories emerged: life prior to prison, adaptation to prison, activities in prison, and perspectives concerning the future. Considering the primary features of FTP (content, extension, valence), we determined that prisoners develop FTP in different life domains. However, the extension and emotional valence of their FTP were influenced by the sentence time and perceived social support. The results are discussed regarding the importance of counselling and of the construction of future plans in the context of prison as relevant factors for individual adaptability.

Male Prisoners

In a study with 48 undergraduate students (24 male, 24 female) two forms of the Future Events Test correlated only moderately ( r = 0.43). In a further study, with offenders, using Form II of the test 40 male prisoners (25 Europeans, 15 Maoris) had a lower mean score than did 40 male parolees (25 Europeans, 15 Maoris) but the difference was significant for Maoris only. This suggests that the effects of imprisonment may be greater for Maoris than Europeans by inducing a foreshortening of future time perspective.

The Future

We are now living in digital age. Almost all activities are carried out using digital technology devices. Various information and knowledge are saved in digital devices. Therefore, anyone who lives in the present and the future should have adequate digital literacy. This study aims to determine the level of digital literacy, future time perspective, and the self-confidence of prospective vocational school graduates in entering the job market. In addition, this study also intends to answer whether there is an influence of digital literacy and future time perspective on the self-confidence of prospective vocational school graduates entering the job market. This research revealed that the digital literacy level of prospective vocational school graduates is at a moderate level, the future time perspective is at a good level, and the level of self-confidence entering the job market is at a good level. Mediated by a future time perspective, digital literacy indirectly affects the self-confidence of prospective vocational school graduates in entering the job market. There is no significant relationship between digital literacy and confidence in entering the job market. Thus, digital literacy--future time perspective--self-confidence in entering the job market is a pathway used to prepare prospective vocational school graduates to enter the job market. Vocational schools are directed to develop real programs to increase students' digital literacy to encourage the growth of self-confidence of prospective vocational school graduates in entering the job market.
