  99.                    <p>This study applies social psychology theories to understand how group identity and collective behavior are formed and manifested within multiplayer mobile games. The research investigates the ways in which players form alliances, establish group norms, and engage in cooperative or competitive behaviors. By analyzing case studies of popular multiplayer mobile games, the paper explores the role of ingroups and outgroups, social influence, and group polarization within game environments. It also examines the psychological effects of online social interaction in gaming communities, discussing how mobile games foster both prosocial behavior and toxic interactions within groups.</p>

  248.                            <p class="info">This study investigates the effectiveness of gamified fitness elements in mobile games as a means of promoting physical activity and improving health outcomes. The research analyzes how mobile games incorporate incentives such as rewards, progress tracking, and competition to motivate players to engage in regular physical exercise. Drawing on health psychology and behavior change theory, the paper examines the psychological and physiological effects of gamified fitness, exploring how it influences players' attitudes toward exercise, their long-term fitness habits, and overall health. The study also evaluates the limitations of gamified fitness interventions, particularly regarding their ability to maintain player motivation over time and address issues related to sedentary behavior.</p>
