“…Moreover, the development of social intelligence promotes good interaction between teachers and students (Meijs, et al, 2010) and contributes to the creation of good relations in the classroom. This consistently leads to effective learning and improves student performance (Boukari et al, 2022).…”

Objective: Develop and test the psychometric properties of an Arabic-language version of Tromso Social Intelligence Scale (TSIS). Method: A total of 807 physical education students at Kef-Higher Tunisia's Institute of Physical Education and Sports with Mean age were 21.43 ± 1.79 participated in this study. Females (n = 414) outnumbered men (n = 397). Subjects were divided into exploratory and confirmatory groups and completed an adapted version of the Tromso Social Intelligence Scale (TSIS). Results: Principal component extraction results show three interpretable components. KMO indices and Bartlett tests confirm all components are suitable for analysis. The solution explained much of the variance. In addition, confirmatory factor analysis indicates acceptable index adjustment and factorial tool stability. The calculations of the internal consistency index for the three factors of the measurement scale demonstrate the good reliability of the instrument. Finally, according to the Fornell-Larcker criterion, the designed Arabic version has good convergent and discriminant validity. Conclusion: The Arabic version of the Tromso Social Intelligence Scale (TSIS) is a reliable and valid version and can be used to assess social intelligence in Tunisia and other Arab countries.

This comparative study investigates the effectiveness of two teaching methods, individual verbal encouragement and collective verbal encouragement, in enhancing the technical–tactical skills and mood state of obese students during handball matches. This study employs a randomized controlled design and involves 28 overweight students (50% females), age: 17.4 ± 2.08 years and BMI: 26.8 ± 1.5 for females and 27.3 ± 2.1 for males. Technical–tactical skills are assessed through performance metrics (individual evaluation proposal by Gréhaigne) such as Ball Played (BP), Conquered Ball (CB), Lost Ball (LB), Shoots/Goals, Conservation index, and defensive index, while mood states are evaluated using pre- and post-tests (BRUMS Scale). Results reveal that individual verbal encouragement significantly enhances technical–tactical skills and positively influences the mood state of overweight students compared to collective verbal encouragement. Boys in Session 1 with VEI displayed a significantly higher number of ball plays (mean difference = 0.94 standard deviations, p = 0.004) and conquered balls (mean difference = 0.78 standard deviations, p = 0.006) compared to VEC. They also had a lower number of Lost Balls (mean difference = −0.62 standard deviations, p = 0.018) and a higher shooting efficiency (Shoots/Goals ratio, mean difference = 0.67 standard deviations; p = 0.013). Similar trends were observed in Session 2, with VEI, again, demonstrating advantages. Girls exhibited analogous improvements with VEI in both sessions. Notably, these performance enhancements coincided with positive emotional changes, with VEI leading to a greater decrease in depression and fatigue scores for both boys and girls. The study highlights the importance of tailoring teaching methods to the specific needs of overweight students in the context of handball, emphasizing the effectiveness of individualized verbal encouragement for skill development and emotional well-being. These findings offer practical implications for educators and coaches involved in physical education, advocating for personalized approaches to optimize learning experiences for overweight students in sports settings.

“…High school ideological and political classrooms should pay full attention to the students' personalized hobbies and constantly encourage students to actively integrate into the classroom atmosphere so as to cultivate their interest in accepting new knowledge and correct learning attitude and then gradually develop into independent learning, independent construction of knowledge system of new skills [1][2][3]. Civics teachers should take active means to guide students to develop positive interaction between students, clarify the difference and internal correlation between moral education and theoretical knowledge, and pay attention to the cultivation of students' independent thinking and independent learning ability so that students can learn new knowledge independently and autonomously under the active guidance of teachers [4][5]. From the perspective of psychology, interaction is reflected in the thoughts, psychology and behavior of teachers and students with each other for the enhancement and exchange of their feelings [6].…”

In this paper, firstly, on the basis of Marx’s theory of intersubjectivity, we use the concept of teachers and students as the main body of each other to construct the interactive teaching mode and mechanism of teachers and students in Civics courses and actively explore the path and prospect of interactive teaching of Civics in courses in the new era. Then we use the pure strategy game in game theory to determine the performance production function, and then we use Nash equilibrium to obtain the teacher utility function and student utility function on the basis of the performance production function so as to further construct the game model of teacher-student behavior in the teaching process of Civics courses, and analyze the teacher-student interaction in the Civics of higher education courses by using the game model. The results show that in the pure strategy game analysis of teacher-student behavior, 0.3872 teachers will choose to reduce teaching inputs, while the other 0.6128 teachers will choose to reduce teaching inputs to “almost no” or “very little”, i.e., the optimal choice strategy is “no” or “very little”, i.e., the optimal choice strategy is “no” or “very little”. The optimal choice strategy is “no reduction in instructional inputs”. In the Nash equilibrium analysis of teacher-student behavior, the equilibrium value of the teacher-student behavior game is (42.22% and 64.59%), and teachers and students need to continuously improve their behavioral strategy choices in order to achieve the maximum utility value of each other. This study improves the quality of teaching and ultimately achieves the objective of Civic Education.
