Does Video Game Music Enhance Player Experience in Video Games? Abstract Research on the psychology of music has shown different genres of music impact the listener’s emotional and cognitive state of mind. Do an individual’s psychomotor skills and performance have a bearing on music? The use of music in video games can be traced as far back as 1978 when chiptunes were used to the modern days when certain music genres are written specifically for specific video games. Most people do not understand how background music influences a player’s behavior, performance, and immersion experience in a video game. Therefore, a study is done to establish how background music in video games has been used to enhance player performance and influence their personality type through cognitive-training games. Introversion and extroversion cases are considered in cognitive-training games to gain an understanding of how music impacts the personality traits of players. Music conditions are considered in four categories (high tempo, medium tempo, low tempo, and silence). Data is collected based on player performance, their behavior during the game, the flow experience. This data…

Review/Analysis of Articles on Issues in International Relations Q.1: Zewei’s article discussed the process of China’s modernization in the context of threats from Western powers on traditional Chinese Confucianism in the era of the Qing government. The author notes that the traditional Chinese world view embodied in the tributary system could not fit into the European norms and values of a balanced international relationship. After the Opium Wars in the mid-19th Century, modern and western international law confronted traditional Chinese Confucianism, based on its massive influence on foreign trade, international relations and treaties, and the world order. This substantial influence of modern international law placed heavy pressure on China, especially in the context of China’s role as a participant in global processes and platforms in trade, politics, law, and economics. The article by Zewei focused on the integration of modern international law and Confucianism and the political processes that facilitated the introduction of current international law in China. The thesis in the article is that the threat that western powers and worldwide pressure placed on China compelled the latter to…

150 ward from the video Introduction Entrepreneurial thinking refers to the ability to look at things differently than everyone else. It enables one to stay ahead of other employees at work and still has more flexibility. Entrepreneurial thinking skills can get improved by being passionate about one’s work. The paper focuses on a radical solution that a business or society can attempt. Jeremy Liddle, an entrepreneur, thins that entrepreneurial thinking can change the world. My radical idea is to create time for the orphans in the orphanages to visit the museum and amusement parts. Each weekend they will spend some time in the park freely. They should not get charged for this. Visiting the museum for free will also be a priority given to the orphans. Another radical idea is that the orphans will have their particular schools and teachers where they will study for free. It would help them feel loved and appreciated. Democratic parties will also get held at their homes. This act would make the orphans feel enjoyed, even though they are homeless. In his video,…

Cheating Hearts Infidelity (generally referred to as cheating) is most frequently a violation of sexual privacy standards. Infidelity may include a variety of behaviours such as: “having an affair,” “extramarital relationship,” “cheating,” “sexual intercourse,” “kissing,” “fondling,” “emotional relationships beyond friendship,” “friendships,” “online relationships,” “using pornography,” and others (Fincham & May 2017). For most cultures, there is typically an explicit or implied expectation of exclusivity during interpersonal relationships, particularly concerning sex. Infidelity is characterized as unfaithfulness due to its unreliability and its fraud against a partner who does not care for exclusivity. A marital partner’s sexual infidelity is also called cheating or adultery. The fact that an act of infidelity is committed differs across cultures and depends on how people relate. Infidelity may occur within an open partnership if a partner acts beyond the known boundaries of the partnership. One point made in the article regarding the infidelity problem is that television reality Jesse star James was cheating on his wife Sandra Bullock, the Academy Award-winning actress. As tabloids announced in March 2010, Tiger Woods undoubtedly lent a massive sigh…
