Gamification is receiving much attention from a variety of fields of life as it has tremendous potential to help people get experienced with 'fun' by the elements of game mechanism and thus attract their voluntary participation eventually to reach the state of 'flow'. Some studies examined this process with a focus the relationship between game elements and flow while others regarded the game elements as fun elements and discussed the relationship between fun and flow. However, starting from the fact that the fundamental reason humans play a game is for fun and fun is in turn induced through game elements, our study defines fun as an emotion and uses it a factors are also introduced as control variables for the study on the belief that game elements affecting fun will apparently vary depending on the cultural dimensions. This study confirms that difference exists in correlations between game element, fun, and flow, depending on the different cultural settings. By comparing samples from Korea and Austria, each representing the east and the west respectively, it was found that 'social fun' affects flow and both 'relationship' and 'reward' are in turn affecting social fun in case of Korea. On the other hand, Austrian case reveals that cognitive fun affects flow and game elements affecting cognitive fun are 'story' and 'reward'.

This study empirically analyzed the effects of coaches' transformational leadership on customers' exercise flow and repurchase behavior. Using two hundred seventy-five questionnaires, first, charisma, individual consideration, and intellectual stimulation had a positive effect on cognitive and behavioral flow. Second, only individual consideration increased repurchase intention. Third, cognitive flow promoted repurchase intention, but behavioral flow was not statistically significant. Lastly, there was no indirect effect on the relationship among the variables. The results may prove valuable to coaches' understanding how to enhance customers' exercise flow and may improve marketers' strategic planning decisions to attain organizational goals.

This study has focused to identify what kinds of psychological state are most closely related in players experiencing flow while playing game. This study constructs a conceptual model of flow for game players by conducting a survey to 303 online game players. The results indicate that the state of flow was reached when players may gain opportunities for having high self-efficacy as they accomplished tasks. At the same time, it indicate that the higher cognitive performance and self-esteem was able to enhance the higher flow experience while playing a game. This study provides both practical and theoretical implications on how to increase players' flow by providing critical psychological states in the game.

This paper examined what structural relationship metacognition and flow, which are identified as major variables that positively influence creative problem solving ability, had with mathematics creative problem solving ability. For this purpose, the Mathematics Creative Problem Solving Ability Test (MCPSAT) was given go 196 general second-year middle school students, and their cognitive and affective states were measured with metacognition and flow tests. The three variables' relationships were examined through a correlation analysis and, through structural equation modeling, the mediating effect of flow was tested in the structural relationships between the three variables and in the relationship between metacognition and mathematics creative problem solving ability. The results of the research show that metacognition did not directly influence mathematics creative solving ability, but exerted influence through the mediating variable of flow. A more detailed examination shows that while metacognition did not influence fluency and originality from among the measured variables for mathematics creative problem solving ability, it did directly influence flexibility. In particular, metacognition's indirect influence through the mediating variable of flow was shown to be much stronger than its direct influence on flexibility. This research showed that the students' high metacognition ability increased flow degree in the problem solving process, and problem solving in this state of flow increased their mathematics creative problem solving ability.

This study examined the effects of childcare teachers' empathy, teaching commitment, and feelings of happiness. The subjects were 111 childcare teachers in U city. The frequency, reliability, and correlation analysis were performed using the SPSS 22.0 program, and regression analysis was performed on the causal relationship between the variables. First, the childcare teacher's cognitive empathy factor had a positive effect on the sense of happiness. On the other hand, the emotional empathy factor, a sub-factor of the empathy ability, did not affect the feeling of happiness. Second, the childcare teacher's teaching commitment had a significant positive effect on happiness. This means that a higher cognitive empathy factor, a sub-factor of the childcare teacher's empathy ability, resulted in a higher sense of happiness. Moreover, a higher instructional commitment factor indicated a higher sense of happiness. This study provides basic data for preparing measures to improve the sense of happiness of childcare teachers by grasping the relationship between childcare teachers' empathy ability, teaching commitment, and feelings of happiness.

The study was conducted with the aim of identifying the impact of competition anxiety on dance immersion and performance in high school students majoring in dance. As of 2020, online surveys were conducted on students majoring in dance at high schools in Seoul and the metropolitan area. A total of 222 people's data were processed by applying t-test, one-way variable analysis, correlation and multiple regression analysis through SPS 18.0 for Windows, resulting in the following conclusions. First, male students were more confident in their condition than female students, and students who recognized that their family's economic power was in the middle class were more aware. In addition, it was found that the group perceived that economic power was at the top of the list was higher than the median. Second, cognitive anxiety and self-confidence have been shown to have a static effect on immersion into dance. Third, cognitive anxiety and self-confidence have been shown to have a static effect on the achievement of uselessness. Fourth, immersion in dance appeared to be a powerful parameter related to competition anxiety and achievement of dance. To sum up the above conclusions, competition among high school students majoring in dance has been shown to increase their performance by immersing themselves in dance, but further studies of these psychological variables are expected to have side effects.
