Abstract

International community service (ICS) is increasingly recognized as an effective approach for strengthening students’ global and intercultural competence. This study examined the impact of an ICS program conducted between State Islamic University of Kiai Ageng Muhammad Besari Ponorogo and Madrasah Utsmaniyah ABIM Penang, Malaysia, on students’ intercultural communication competence (ICC) and soft skills. Employing a mixed-methods convergent design, the study involved 12 participating students, faculty supervisors, ABIM coordinators, and local community leaders. Quantitative data were obtained through pre–post assessments using validated ICC and soft-skill scales, while qualitative data were collected through interviews, participant observation, and reflective journals. The findings indicate significant improvement across all ICC dimensions, including cultural awareness, sensitivity, communication skills, and reflective competence. Students also demonstrated notable enhancement in soft skills such as leadership, teamwork, adaptability, and empathy, supported by qualitative evidence of increased confidence, communicative flexibility, and ethical awareness during community engagement. Perspectives from supervisors and community stakeholders further corroborated the program’s effectiveness. Overall, the study highlights the value of culturally proximate international service-learning in fostering global competence within Islamic higher education and offers implications for developing sustainable cross-border community service initiatives in the ASEAN context.

Abstract

Innovative pedagogical approaches are increasingly essential in physiotherapy education to foster engagement and competency development. This multicenter cross-sectional study explored physiotherapy students’ perceptions of game-based learning (GBL) across six Portuguese higher education institutions. A total of 208 students completed a structured questionnaire assessing attitudes toward GBL in teaching–learning contexts and competency development. Results indicated generally positive perceptions of GBL, emphasizing its value for motivation, engagement, and integration of theoretical and practical learning. Transversal competencies—such as teamwork, communication, and empathy—were consistently recognized across academic years, while perceived benefits for technical skills increased with clinical exposure. Female students and those with prior health-related experience reported more favorable attitudes. However, students also highlighted limited curricular implementation and the need for clearer alignment between game activities and learning objectives, suggesting barriers at the institutional and pedagogical levels. These insights point to a gap between students’ enthusiasm and current educational practices, underlining the importance of structured guidance for integrating GBL effectively. Building on these findings, the student-perceived integration for novel education (SPINE) framework is proposed as a decision-making model to guide the pedagogically grounded GBL in physiotherapy curricula, emphasizing evidence-informed, context-sensitive, and sustainable implementation.

Abstract

Many assessment scales used to study organizational citizenship behavior (OCB) in Latin American countries are adaptations of instruments developed in other cultural settings. In this regard, the objective of this study was to evaluate the structural validity and reliability of the organizational citizenship behavior scale for coworkers (ECCOCT) in Colombian university teachers. An exploratory factor analysis (EFA) with principal axis extraction and Oblimin rotation was used, followed by a confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) with robust maximum likelihood (MLR). Omega, average variance extracted (AVE), and heterotrait–monotrait ratio (HTMT) were calculated. Participants included 113 university teachers from the city of Manizales, Colombia. The EFA showed that of the five dimensions proposed by the theory, two accurately reflect OCB (OCB directed toward individuals (OCB-I) and OCB directed toward the organization (OCB-O)), explaining 64.2% of the variance. The two-dimensional model showed an excellent fit (χ²/gl=1.24; comparative fit index (CFI)=.977; root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA)=.046). The reliability of the factors was ω=.90 and ω=.84. Convergent validity (AVE>.50) and discriminant validity (HTMT<.85) were corroborated. The ECCOCT in its two dimensions shows solid psychometric properties and constitutes a brief and valid instrument for assessing organizational citizenship in Latin American contexts.

Abstract

This sequential explanatory study aims to probe on the influences of cognitive, psychological, and social factors on mathematics resilience in problem solving. Anchored on three-dimensional resilience theory in problem solving, stratified sampling and purposive sampling were used to determine the respondents of the study coming from the six large-categorized senior high schools in Davao City (Philippines), school year 2023-2024. Data gathering was administered using the researcher-made questionnaire and interview guide, and content validated by experts. The quantitative findings, through the multiple regression test, revealed that problem-solving skills (PSS), growth mindset (GM), and teacher scaffoldings (TS) significantly predict students’ resiliency in mathematics. For the qualitative data, following Colaizzi’s data analysis, the following themes surfaced: i) GM and positive learning attitudes; ii) active problem-solving strategies; and iii) supportive learning environment (SLE) and TS. The results confirmed that cognitive, psychological, and social factors are significantly related to students’ resiliency in solving mathematics problems and that developing a growth attitude, fostering a SLE, and providing appropriate TS, can help build students’ mathematical resilience and PSS.

Abstract

Learned helplessness can significantly hinder academic achievement, necessitating effective pedagogical interventions. The current study investigated the impact of flipped learning as an innovative teaching approach on mitigating learned helplessness in higher education context. Forty undergraduate university students were involved in the study and they were randomly assigned to an experimental group (n=20) which received instruction through the flipped learning approach, or a control group (n=20) which received traditional instruction. Data collection was conducted using the learned helplessness scale. The results of the study revealed statistically significant differences between the experimental and control groups on the learned helplessness scale, indicating that the flipped learning group exhibited lower levels of learned helplessness. Students in the experimental group showed significant immediate reduction in their learned helplessness compared to students of the control group. Nevertheless, follow-up testing revealed that these gains significantly declined over time. This highlights a crucial distinction between the immediate and delayed effects of the pedagogical intervention. Practically, the findings suggest that while flipped learning is an effective tool for reducing learned helplessness, its benefits are transient without consistent reinforcement and systematic support rather than relying on one-time intervention.

Abstract

This study examined the leadership characteristics associated with emergent leaders and explored how these characteristics are perceived by administrators and faculty members within an academic context. Guided by a convergent parallel mixed-methods approach, data were gathered from 189 respondents drawn from nine satellite campuses of a state university, comprising 54 administrators and 135 faculty members. Quantitative data were collected using a structured survey questionnaire measuring percipience across leadership domains, while qualitative data were obtained through written narrative reflections. Descriptive statistics and independent samples t-tests were employed to determine levels of percipience and significant differences between groups, and thematic analysis was used to analyze qualitative narratives. The study aimed to describe leadership traits expressed through participants’ accounts, determine the level of percipience across key leadership domains, compare perceptions between administrators and faculty members, and identify significant differences in their assessments. Findings revealed that emergent leadership is recognized through consistent ethical conduct, effective communication, relational engagement, and adaptive decision-making rather than formal position alone. Although both groups shared similar views on core leadership attributes, variations emerged in the emphasis placed on delegation, adaptability, and change-oriented behaviors, reflecting differences in professional roles and responsibilities. Integrating quantitative and qualitative findings, the study developed the LEADWISE integrated leadership framework, which explains leadership emergence as a dynamic and relational process shaped by leader-ship traits, wisdom, integrity, social engagement, and ethical awareness. The study contributes to leadership research by offering an empirically grounded framework that supports leadership identification and development in complex organizational settings, particularly within higher education institutions.

Abstract

Despite growing attention to academic procrastination and student mental health, few studies have examined how procrastination is linked specifically to depression, anxiety, and stress (DAS) among college students in the Southern Philippines—an underrepresented context in the literature. Anchored in the cognitive-behavioral theory, which posits that maladaptive behaviors like procrastination can reinforce negative emotional states, this study investigates the relationship between academic procrastination and psychological distress. Using a quantitative descriptive-correlational design, data were gathered from 796 college students selected through simple random sampling. Instruments included the academic procrastination scale and the DASS-21, both with strong reliability indices. Descriptive statistics were used to identify the severity levels of procrastination and mental health symptoms, while Pearson’s correlation coefficient examined their relationships. Most of students demonstrated moderate levels of academic procrastination. Notably, while depression was significantly correlated with procrastination, anxiety and stress showed no significant association. This suggests that procrastination may particularly intensify depressive tendencies, such as low motivation and self-worth, rather than general stress or anxiety. The high prevalence of extremely severe anxiety and moderate to severe stress signals broader psychosocial challenges among students that may not be directly linked to procrastination but still demand attention. These findings contribute to the academic discourse by contextualizing mental health and behavioral patterns in a regional student population. The study has practical implications for curriculum planners, mental health professionals, and institutional policymakers, particularly in designing support systems that address the psychological and behavioral needs of students within culturally specific frameworks.

Abstract

In recent years, education has experienced rapid change due to the rise of artificial intelligence (AI). This study analyzed how twelve interconnected factors, based on technology acceptance and trust theories, influence trust in AI for learning (TL) and actual AI use (AU) among pre-service teachers in Thailand. Using a quantitative design, with data collected from 260 pre-service teachers through purposive sampling based on prior AI experience. A 60-item, 5-point Likert-scale questionnaire, validated through pilot testing and internal consistency analysis (α=0.82–0.91). Data was analyzed using structural equation modeling (SEM) with maximum likelihood estimation. The model showed very good fit (χ²/df=1.601, root mean square error of approximation (RMSEA)=0.049) and explained 90.80% of behavioral intention (BI) and 71.20% of AU. Results indicated that cognitive load regulation (CLR) was the strongest predictor of TL (β=0.786, p<0.001), while responsible AI awareness (RAA) also showed positive effect. In contrast, AI self-efficacy (ASE) in a negative way (β=-0.159, p=0.009). The primary predictor of AU was BI (β=0.884, p<0.001). These findings highlight the importance of AI education systems, which will reduce teachers’ cognitive load and contribute to an improved ethical AI literacy in teacher training institutions.

Abstract

The language-based miscommunication often has an emotional background, especially in non-standard situations, and leads to unintended consequences and even human losses. The analysis of English for specific purposes (ESP) curricula reveals the problem of insufficient attention paid to the development of professionally significant personality traits that determine the ability to avoid miscommunication. The research is based on the military context just because their mistakes might be fatal, but the fundamentals of the developed methodology can be applied to any ESP training. Case studies of language-based errors in military operations and behavioral observations to assess cadets’ emotional stability were used to develop the methodology. The study’s objectives were to identify factors affecting communication reliability in military operations and to propose methods for developing cadets’ professionally significant qualities that influence behavior under stress and time pressure. The article aims to present an English teaching methodology for the development of errorless communication skills. The novelty of this manuscript lies in its comprehensive and practice-oriented approach to military English teaching that integrates pedagogical methods with military simulation technologies, aligning instruction with NATO STANAG 6001 standards. The findings contribute to military language education and may serve as a model for similar high-stakes professional training environments.

Abstract

This study investigates ChatGPT integration effectiveness in Chinese language education across three Vietnamese universities involving 350 students and 45 instructors. Using mixed-methods analysis, quantitative surveys revealed 78.3% improved learning motivation with artificial intelligence (AI)-enhanced personalized learning, while 82.1% valued immediate feedback capabilities. Significant disciplinary variations emerged: traditional medicine students demonstrated highest acceptance rates (M=4.3, SD=0.7) compared to translation studies students (M=3.7, SD=1.0), F(2, 347)=15.8, p<0.001. AI literacy was strongly associated with learning effectiveness (r=0.67, p<0.001), accounting for 45% of outcome variance. Qualitative analysis identified human-AI interactive negotiation competence (HAINC) development as critical, with 91% of instructors emphasizing systematic training needs. Despite benefits, 64.7% expressed human interaction concerns, revealing fundamental pedagogical tensions requiring collaborative human-AI frameworks. Findings provide evidence-based guidance for implementing discipline-responsive AI systems in Vietnamese higher education while maintaining pedagogical authenticity and addressing technological literacy gaps.
