Abstract

Urban populations often face high levels of stress, anxiety, and burnout, which can negatively affect their overall well-being. While mindfulness-based interventions (MBIs) have been widely studied for their effectiveness in reducing symptoms of mental health disorders, less attention has been paid to their potential in fostering positive psychological outcomes such as flourishing and psychological capital. Flourishing, characterized by life satisfaction, meaning, and engagement, alongside psychological capital, which includes hope, resilience, self-efficacy, and optimism, are essential for long-term well-being and adaptive functioning. This study aims to explore the role of mindfulness-based lifestyle interventions (MBLIs) in cultivating flourishing and psychological capital among urban populations, beyond the reduction of negative symptoms. The research utilized a mixed-methods design, involving pre- and post-assessments using the Flourishing Scale, Psychological Capital Questionnaire, and qualitative interviews. A sample of 100 urban residents participated in an 8-week MBLIs program. Results indicated significant improvements in flourishing (mean increase of 1.2 points) and psychological capital (mean increase of 1.2 points). Participants reported higher levels of self-efficacy, optimism, and emotional resilience. In conclusion, mindfulness-based interventions can serve as a valuable tool in enhancing psychological resilience and well-being, particularly in urban populations, supporting long-term mental health and flourishing.

Abstract

The integration of immersive technologies into educational settings has introduced new possibilities for enhancing creativity, engagement, and understanding of abstract concepts. Virtual Reality (VR), as one of the most advanced digital tools, offers interactive three-dimensional environments that can transform traditional teaching approaches. This study aims to examine the effects of VR-based learning on student engagement and concept mastery within creative education courses. An experimental research design was implemented with 80 undergraduate students randomly assigned to an experimental group using VR applications and a control group using conventional multimedia. The intervention focused on design-thinking modules over a six-week period. Data were collected using engagement observation checklists, concept mastery tests, and post-intervention questionnaires, and analyzed through descriptive and inferential statistics. Results revealed that the experimental group demonstrated significantly higher engagement levels and achieved better scores in conceptual understanding than the control group. Students reported that VR facilitated exploration, provided a more stimulating learning environment, and encouraged active participation in problem-solving activities.
