“…This was possible, despite the difficulties imposed by the polysemic term "flow" in scientific databases, by using a methodology that combines the PRISMA framework with grounded theory, in an eight-phase process. The literature review explained in this paper shows a significative increase in the number of questionnaires reported in previous systematic or narrative reviews [34][35][36][37][55][56][57][58][59][60][61][62][63], increasing the quality of the questionnaire validation process and limitations. This is coherent with our previous expectations, because the nature of the methodology used is cumulative.…”

Validated Questionnaires in Flow Theory: A Systematic Review

Psychological flow has been measured in several areas to analyse to what extent users are engaged in particular tasks, and is relevant in the design of products like software, videogames, and eLearning courses. Although there is an unknown number of questionnaires for evaluating different aspects of psychological flow, the research problem faced in this paper is the analysis of the validity of these questionnaires, since it has only been probed for some of them. Thus, our goal is to synthesize the current evidence regarding validated questionnaires in the English language for psychological flow measurement by conducting a systematic review according to the PRISMA framework. As a result, we found a total number of 34 validated questionnaires to assess flow. The number of their items ranged from 3 to 66, while 63 different dimensions of optimal experiences were taken into consideration. Moreover, the contexts of use differed, including methods to assess flow intensity, prevalence, variations, proneness, metacognitions, in crowds, observed, as dimensions of autotelic personalities, or to differentiate flow from clutch states. As a consequence, this paper facilitates the selection of the questionnaires for research or applied aims, far beyond the classic dichotomy of prevalence–proneness. Moreover, we present a reinterpretation of the nine-dimensional scheme of flow in stages, and recommend future research for engineering and computer science.

“…A previous study reported that both a definitive decrease in anxiety and deepened flow can reinforce sportive performance in collaborative-competition sport ( Kim & Kim, 2020 ). Players feel that they are immersed in the game and can perform at an optimal level ( Gutierrez, 2021 ), and a higher level of flow can make individuals make meaningful progress in physical activities ( Jackman et al, 2021 ). Supporting their studies, H3 in this study was positively supported.…”

“…An important research direction is the expansion of TAM theory ( Jiang et al, 2021 ). The positive effects of flow experiences have also been thoroughly explored in previous research in technology acceptance and education ( Jackman et al, 2021 ). This study has confirmed that the integration of flow and gender into the TAM improved explanation of the application of metaverse technology in basketball teaching.…”

IntroductionBased on the expansion of flow constructs based on the TAM model, this study assesses the impact of metaverse technology in college basketball courses.MethodsWe surveyed 849 effective samples using an online questionnaire survey, verified our analysis using structural equation modeling, and examined the moderating effect of gender on the path relationship.ResultsThe perceived ease of use, the flow experience, and the perceived usefulness of the product are important predictors of behavioral intention. According to the study, perceived usefulness, and flow experience influence attitudes significantly. A moderating effect of gender is observed on perceived ease of use on the path to behavioral intention, and the results extend the theoretical research on the use of metaverse technology for basketball instruction and TAM.DiscussionA metaverse-based learning experience can enhance the flow experience of basketball learning, thus increasing the willingness to use and the effectiveness of learning.
