Design Thinking and Early School Dropout
Design Thinking (DT) is a design process originally used in the conception and validation of innovative and technologically efficient human-centered solutions for ill-formed problems. Being an iterative and collaborative process with a human point of view, DT allows adopters to improve several intrapersonal and interpersonal skills, like collaboration, creative thinking, leadership, presentation, project management, ethics, storytelling, negotiation, empathy, willingness to learn, etc. As such, DT has been adopted in several other areas and has also become highly relevant in educational contexts to develop the aforementioned skills in students. It has also been shown to contribute to minimizing the school dropout problem by keeping students motivated and integrated in the school context.

Post-Traumatic Growth and Post-Traumatic Stress after Infidelity
Two important, while relatively uncommon, outcomes of trauma include experiences of post-traumatic growth (PTG) and symptoms of post-traumatic stress (PTS). PTG is characterized by increased personal strength, a renewed sense of life purpose and meaning, and better interpersonal relationships. Infidelity within an intimate relationship is typically described as an interpersonal betrayal. However, its lasting effects can resemble those experienced by individuals with PTSD in response to other traumas. Understanding the pathways from infidelity to PTG and PTS are important; one pathway includes determining that the event is central to one's identity or experiences.

Intelligent Tutoring for Student-Athletes Based on Self-Determination Theory
Student-athletes frequently struggle to strike a balance between their academic and athletic responsibilities. Various factors, such as age and competitive level, contribute to differences in their academic motivation and identity, showcasing the multifaceted needs they possess. While self-determination theory (SDT) has been proven effective for explaining student-athletes academic needs, its integration into learning design for this group remains limited. The developing AI technology, especially the Intelligent Tutoring System (ITS), offers the potential for creating personalized learning environments that can cater to the varying levels of motivation among student-athletes within the framework of SDT.

The Relationship between Career Calling and Workaholism
The difference between having workers involved in their work, on the one hand, or too exhausted to contribute, on the other, can be tenuous and compromise work orientation. The positive outcomes of career calling (a deep purpose and meaningfulness in work characterized by vigor, dedication, and absorption) to organizations are clear, namely the relationship of career calling with high levels of commitment and engagement. However, the dark side of career calling remains a less explored point.
