To quantify individuals' procrastination, we use deadline reactivity, an individual's tendency to procrastinate based on longitudinal data, and time proximity of submission to deadline based on discrete data. We find the significant main effect of time in the academic term on deadline reactivity and time proximity of submission to deadline, indicating that in both the face-to-face and online learning environments, students' procrastination increases as the term progresses. We also construct predictive models of deadline reactivity that could be estimated with the time proximity of submission to deadline, learning environments, and time in the academic term. Our results suggest that the instructors' efforts to intervene in students' procrastination would be more required in the second half of the academic term when procrastination is highest.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50317,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139653354","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the degrees of influence and the relationship of the influencing factors with WMSDs remain unclear. Therefore, it is quite important to propose a comprehensive analysis of underlying factors of WMSDs from a system perspective. In this study, we utilize a meta-analytic approach to conduct a comprehensive analysis. Specifically, we extend the Biological-psychological-social (BPS) model to investigate the main factors of WMSDs, thus illuminating the associations between these factors and their varying degrees of influence on WMSDs. Through a combination of qualitative development and quantitative meta-analysis, we propose a specific BPS model tailored to WMSDs. Our BPS model encompasses three main factors: psychological, social, and biological, and the biological factor is further categorized into adjustable and fixed sub-factors. The modeling results demonstrate that social factor and fixed biological factor are the main aspects that have a significant influence on WMSDs, while psychological factor mainly regulate the effect of adjustable biological factor on WMSD. Social factor also has a mediating effect between biological factors and WMSDs. Our study reveals interactions among biological, psychological, and social factors, and provides comprehensive and holistic guidance for WMSD prevention and intervention based on the extended BPS model. Moreover, we offer actionable suggestions for WMSD intervention. This research contributes to a deeper understanding of WMSDs and provides valuable insights for designing effective preventive measures and interventions to mitigate the impact of WMSDs on workers’ health and well-being.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":50317,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Industrial Ergonomics","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2024-01-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139493072","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
