Abstract

This paper explores the evolving psychology of the Digital Native, a term commonly used to describe individuals who have grown up in the digital age and are inherently familiar with technology. With the advent of the internet and its ubiquity in everyday life, the behaviors, cognitive patterns, and mental frameworks of individuals have drastically shifted. The objective of this article is to present a critical examination of the psychological implications of this digital immersion and offer a conceptual framework for understanding the interaction between scrolling, clicking, and thinking in the context of the Digital Native. This paper employs a comprehensive literature review to analyze recent research on the digital behaviors and cognitive patterns of Digital Natives, using sources published within the last decade for up-to-date insights. Digital Natives' constant digital immersion reshapes cognition, leading to efficiency in information use but also to overload, distraction, and reduced critical thinking. This shift impacts education, work, and development, requiring strategies that support deep thinking and focus.

Abstract

With the increasing presence of digital communication, the distinction between virtual relationships and real-life interactions has become more blurred. The psychological effects of online relationships, especially in terms of emotional development and mental health, have garnered growing attention. This article explores the concept of virtual relationships and how they influence real emotions, drawing on existing literature to provide a comprehensive understanding of the topic. Using a conceptual framework, this study examines the complexities of virtual interactions and their psychological impact on individuals, particularly focusing on emotional authenticity, attachment, and social well-being. The methodological approach for this article is qualitative research. The primary research tool was a comprehensive literature review, focusing on psychological studies of virtual relationships, emotional development, and online communication patterns. The findings suggest that while virtual relationships may serve as meaningful substitutes, they are not a replacement for genuine human connections. Additionally, they may lead to emotional distress and distorted perceptions of intimacy, especially when they fail to fulfill essential emotional needs.

Abstract

The rise of digital communication has given birth to a disturbing trend: cyberbullying. Unlike traditional bullying, cyberbullying occurs in a persistent, borderless, and often anonymous online environment, magnifying its psychological impact. This article presents an opinion-based psychological analysis of how cyberbullying contributes to emotional distress, especially among adolescents and young adults. Drawing on key psychological theories such as the General Aggression Model (GAM) and the Stress-Coping Framework, the article explores the complex interplay between online aggression and mental health. A conceptual model is introduced to demonstrate the link between online behavior and emotional consequences. Data from existing literature are synthesized into thematic tables to highlight key trends and coping strategies. The findings emphasize the urgent need for proactive psychological interventions, digital literacy education, and supportive online communities.

Abstract

The emergence of artificial intelligence (AI) in education has significantly altered how students and teachers interact with technology and one another. This article examines behavioral changes resulting from the use of AI in educational settings through the lens of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) theory. Using a conceptual approach, this paper proposes a framework that explores cognitive, social, affective, ethical, and professional dimensions in human-AI educational interactions. The analysis shows that AI promotes personalized learning and increases efficiency, yet introduces new challenges such as cognitive dependence, role shifts among educators, and ethical risks. The implications of this article are intended for curriculum designers, educators, and educational technology developers seeking to foster ethical, critical, and collaborative learning ecosystems.

Abstract

Multitasking is becoming a crucial part of everyday life for knowledge workers, students, and anybody navigating technologically advanced environments in the digital age. Emerging empirical research shows that digital multitasking imposes significant cognitive and psychological demands, despite being frequently seen as an indication of efficiency. The effects of digital multitasking on mental health, productivity, and cognitive load are examined critically in this article. We contend, based on theoretical frameworks and empirical data, that the apparent increases in productivity are mostly a mirage, masking significant reductions in working memory, attention span, and emotional control. This research provides a thorough examination of the trade-offs related to continuous task-switching in the digital setting by utilizing a conceptual framework that connects digital multitasking with cognitive and psychological effects. Current research is compiled to show the wider repercussions on personal health and productivity at work, highlighting the necessity of evidence-based tactics to lessen the negative consequences of multitasking in today's digital world.

Abstract

In the evolving digital workplace, technology and Human Resource Management (HRM) have become increasingly intertwined, redefining traditional HR functions and relationships. This paper explores the psychological dynamics and organizational implications of integrating advanced technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), machine learning, and analytics into HRM. Drawing from over 25 scholarly references, the study analyzes how technology influences recruitment, onboarding, performance evaluation, and employee development. The findings emphasize that while digital tools enhance efficiency, human-centric approaches remain indispensable in fostering engagement, motivation, and well-being. The study highlights the importance of a balanced HRM strategy that harmonizes technological efficiency with psychological and emotional human needs. The paper concludes that sustainable HRM in the digital era must be anchored in empathy, ethical judgment, and continuous learning.

Abstract

This study aims to evaluate the development of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) in the 21st century through a Systematic Literature Review of 38 scholarly articles selected based on PRISMA guidelines. The findings indicate that OBE innovations include integrating cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, flipped classrooms, and blended learning models, which have been shown to enhance student engagement and learning outcomes. Globally, the implementation of OBE occurs through various approaches, such as the BOPPPS model, CDIO, and personalized algorithm-based learning. The impact of OBE includes improvements in critical thinking skills, communication, student satisfaction, and the employability of graduates in the job market. However, significant challenges remain, such as faculty resistance, limitations in professional training, and a lack of long-term evaluation. The study concludes that OBE holds substantial potential as an innovative framework in higher education if applied contextually and sustainably, with recommendations for future research focusing on long-term sustainability, inclusivity, and cross-cultural adaptability.

Abstract

University students face significant mental health challenges, including anxiety, depression, and stress, which may negatively impact their academic performance and overall well-being. This narrative review explores the important role of university support services in addressing these challenges. Services such as on-campus counselling, wellness programs, and peer support initiatives are vital in providing professional guidance, coping strategies, and fostering a supportive environment. It also highlights barriers to accessing these services, including stigma, long wait times, and cultural or socioeconomic factors, which can affect students from seeking help. Innovative approaches like digital platforms, teletherapy, and holistic wellness programs can enhance accessibility and engagement. The review identifies research gaps, particularly regarding the long-term impacts of mental health services on academic success. Recommendations emphasize the importance of culturally competent care, collaboration with faculty and staff, and ongoing evaluation to improve service delivery. By prioritizing mental health services and adopting innovative strategies, universities can better support their students, reduce stigma, and promote help-seeking behaviours. This review calls for institutions to expand and improve their mental health programs to meet their students' diverse and growing needs.

Abstract

This article critically examines the Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Act, 2018 and its 2022 amendment bill, with a focus on the definitional gaps that hinder its effective implementation. Central to the critique is the Act's failure to provide a clear and inclusive definition of the term "transgender," resulting in legal ambiguity and inconsistent application. Despite its progressive intent, the legislation has faced backlash from segments of society, often conflating gender identity rights with debates around same-sex relationships and LGBTQ+ (individuals who are lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer) recognition. The study adopts analytical and descriptive legal methods to explore the constitutional implications of the Act, its reception within Pakistani society, and its impact on the transgender community's access to fundamental rights, including education, healthcare, employment, and political participation. The article further assesses challenges related to gender identity recognition, kinship, inheritance, and marriage, and argues for a more precise and inclusive legal framework. Ultimately, this study advocates for pragmatic reforms that ensure the legislation serves as a robust instrument for the protection and empowerment of transgender individuals in Pakistan.
