Abstract

Because personal identity is a crucial component forming an individual, the perception of identity is a key feature in identity work. As a crucial component of the constant development of an individual, identity work influences the sustainability of groups and societies. Due to gender differences in many areas, the research on the impact of gender factors on the perception of creative individuals (like an artist, creator, entrepreneur, leader, and manager) may bring significant conclusions. Although gender factor is widely present in the literature, there is a gap about the impact of gender on the perception of creative individuals. A quantitative examination among the international society representatives (n = 160) was undertaken to fill this gap. The research displays that male and female perspectives of the perception of the creative identities are statistically similar. The hypotheses were confirmed using the chi-square test of independence (p < 0.001). The additional qualitative analysis reveals that females, in comparison to males, see the particular factors constituting each studied identity slightly more transparent and as more important: the artist's identity by 1.73%, the creator's identity by 0.98%, the entrepreneur's identity by 2.23%, the leader's identity by 2.11%, and the manager's identity by 1.15%. The research results may be used to understand the gender differences of creative identities' perception by male-or female-dominated groups, organizations, and societies. The consequences of the differences for management and entrepreneurship may be seen as minor from the general perspective. However, they may be essential in the efficiency of the cooperation: 1) There is no evidence that any gender should be limited or preferred about working with creative individuals; 2) There is a slight difference indicating female predispositions in the perception of creative identities; 3) Particular features of creative individuals are underrated or overrated by males and females and can determine particular decisions. The research conclusions should be seen as a novelty compared to results describing essential differences in many areas of human activities regarding gender.

Exploring Gamification Research Trends Using Topic Modeling

“…PyLDAvis visualization tool was used to answer the third research question (RQ3). PyLDAvis is an effective tool for visualizing the results obtained in topic modeling analyses [66], [67]. The pyLDAvis screenshot output of the model to explore the relationships between the topics and the content of the topics is given in Figure 7.…”

“…The size of the circles indicates the prevalence of the related topic. The relationships between topics can be understood through their position on the Visualization [67]. The distance map between topics shows the similarity or dissimilarity between the topics learned by the LDA model.…”

“…It has affected the level and forms of the employability of an individual, freedom of movement and how income is spent. In such economically and socially difficult situations, the importance of financial literacy is being increased because these adverse circumstances which do not depend on a citizen significantly affect people who make financial decisions and change their behaviour (Ciemleja, Kozlovskis, 2021). The pandemic situation has changed the way we work, learn and shop.…”
