Abstract

The increasing complexity of global social and environmental challenges has intensified the need for innovative models of social entrepreneurship that move beyond conventional profit-oriented and philanthropic approaches. Game-based systems have emerged as interactive digital mechanisms capable of fostering sustained engagement, behavioral change, and collective action, yet their strategic role in social entrepreneurship remains underexplored. This study aims to examine how game-based social entrepreneurship functions as a catalyst for sustainable impact by integrating interactive design with social value creation. A qualitative multiple-case research design was employed, involving eight social enterprises that systematically utilize game-based mechanisms to address social and environmental challenges. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews, document analysis, and platform engagement metrics, and analyzed using thematic and comparative techniques. The results indicate that social enterprises embedding narrative-driven gameplay, cooperative mechanics, and mission-linked feedback systems achieve higher levels of sustained user engagement, mission alignment, and impact scalability. Game-based systems were found to operate as structural infrastructures rather than supplementary engagement tools. The study concludes that game-based social entrepreneurship represents a transformative model that bridges digital innovation and sustainability, enabling social enterprises to translate participatory play into durable social impact and long-term value creation.

Abstract

Structural infrastructure worldwide faces increasing exposure to climate-induced hazards, including extreme flooding, high-intensity wind events, prolonged heat waves, and compound environmental stressors that challenge conventional engineering design standards. Growing uncertainty associated with climate change necessitates innovative approaches capable of enhancing resilience while maintaining structural efficiency and economic feasibility. This study aims to examine the effectiveness of structural optimization strategies in improving infrastructure performance under extreme environmental conditions. A quantitative engineering research design was employed using finite element modeling, climate hazard simulations, probabilistic risk assessment, and multi-objective optimization techniques. Structural systems were evaluated across multiple hazard scenarios to assess resilience, reliability, material efficiency, failure probability, and lifecycle cost performance. Results indicate that optimized structures achieved significantly higher resilience scores, improved structural reliability, reduced stress concentrations, lower failure probabilities, and greater material efficiency compared with conventional designs. Optimization-based configurations demonstrated superior adaptability to future climate scenarios and maintained operational performance under severe loading conditions. Case-study simulations further revealed substantial reductions in displacement and maintenance requirements while improving long-term infrastructure sustainability. Findings suggest that integrating climate projections with advanced optimization frameworks can substantially strengthen engineering resilience and support more effective adaptation strategies. Structural optimization therefore represents a promising pathway for developing safer, more sustainable, and climate-responsive infrastructure systems capable of addressing emerging environmental risks.

Abstract

Prosocial behavior voluntary actions intended to benefit others is a cornerstone of functional societies. While its benefits for the recipient are clear, a growing body of research in positive psychology suggests that engaging in altruistic acts may also be a powerful and often overlooked pathway to enhancing the actor’s own psychological well-being and overall life satisfaction. This study aimed to empirically investigate the relationship between the frequency of engaging in prosocial behavior and self-reported levels of psychological well-being and life satisfaction in a diverse adult population, and to determine if this relationship holds after controlling for key demographic variables. A cross-sectional survey design was employed with a sample of 450 adults (aged 25-65). Participants completed a battery of validated instruments, including the Prosocialness Scale, the PERMA Well-being Profiler, and the Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS). A strong, positive correlation was found between prosocial behavior and both well-being (r = .51, p < .001) and life satisfaction (r = .48, p < .001). The regression analysis revealed that prosocial behavior remained a significant and unique predictor of both outcomes even after controlling for all demographic variables. It accounted for a substantial portion of the variance in both well-being and life satisfaction scores. Engaging in prosocial behavior is a robust and significant predictor of higher psychological well-being and greater life satisfaction. The findings suggest that altruistic actions are not merely a consequence of happiness but are an active ingredient in creating a fulfilling life.

Abstract

Sleep plays a fundamental role in the cognitive and emotional development of children, yet sleep deprivation has become increasingly common among elementary school students due to lifestyle and environmental factors. Poor sleep quality has been linked to diminished academic performance, reduced attention span, and impaired memory consolidation, all of which are essential for effective learning. This study aims to investigate the relationship between sleep quality, academic achievement, and memory consolidation processes in elementary school children. A quantitative correlational design was employed involving 280 students aged 9–12 years from three urban elementary schools. Data were collected using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) and a standardized memory recall test, alongside academic records. Statistical analyses were performed using Pearson correlation and multiple regression to determine predictive relationships among variables. Findings indicated a significant positive correlation between sleep quality and both academic performance (r = 0.63, p < 0.001) and memory retention (r = 0.59, p < 0.001). Children with consistent sleep schedules and adequate rest demonstrated superior cognitive function, particularly in long-term memory tasks and problem-solving abilities. The study concludes that sufficient and high-quality sleep is a critical determinant of learning efficiency and academic success. Interventions promoting healthy sleep habits should be integrated into school health programs to support cognitive and educational outcomes.
