This paper is motivated by the objective of improving the realism of real-time simulated crowds by reducing short term collision avoidance through long term anticipation of pedestrian trajectories. For this aim, we choose to reuse outdoor pedestrian trajectories obtained with non-invasive means. This initial step is achieved by analyzing the recordings of multiple synchronized video cameras. In...

This experiment investigated pain-related avoidance behavior in context of competing goals. Participants (N=56) were presented trials of 2 different tasks of which 1 task could produce pain. They were free to decide whether or not to perform trials of these tasks. In half of the participants, a competing goal was activated by instructing them that they would receive a monetary reward correspond...

Parent involvement is a concept which includes children’s education. Research and theories suggest that parent can predict achievement goal. The aims of this research to know whether the Yogyakarta high-school students (185 males 379 females) were selected fill in two questionnaires assessed both their perceptions students’ goals. SEM analyses showed model was fit explain correlation between Re...

Achieving global sustainability objectives such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals or Aichi Targets, including remaining within planetary boundaries, necessitates proactively avoiding a proportion of environmental impacts otherwise expected to result from economic development. Quantifying these “avoided” is important for monitoring progress toward meeting objectives, but doing so in consis...

Sixty undergraduates at a public university in the northwest United States recorded their approach and avoidance communal (closeness), uncommunal (distance), agentic (assertion), and unagentic (submission) goals during a total of 836 naturalistic interactions with romantic partners. They also completed a self-report measure of attachment style. Secure attachment predicted more approach than avo...

BACKGROUND The multiple goal perspective posits that certain combinations of achievement goals are more favourable than others in terms of educational outcomes. AIMS This study aimed to examine longitudinally whether students' achievement goal profiles and transitions between profiles are associated with developments in self-reported and teacher-rated effort and academic achievement in upper ...

Although teacher motivation is posited to matter for students' learning experiences, this remains largely uninvestigated, particularly in higher education. In two studies, we analyzed the role of education teachers' achievement goals and self-efficacy experiences. Study 1 (k = 166 teachers, n 2,106 students), assessed motivations at semester start, course-specific perceptions teaching quality (...
