Flow in Computer Human Environment
Flow or optimal experience is a concept connected with intrinsic motivation which has been explored in the past 30 years. Many researches showed correlation between flow, on one side, and positive experiences and well-being on the other side. The more time students spend in the state of flow, the better quality of their experiences: they experience a higher level of concentration, creativity and positive emotions (Nakamura & Csikszentmihalyi, 2002). The aim of this study was to explore whether students of “Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Computing” (FEEC), Zagreb, Croatia, experience flow while engaged in computer programming and related study fields, and which variables contribute to experiencing flow. The sample consisted of 142 students. The research was conducted via online questionnaire and paper- pencil testing in March and April of 2011. Results show that students experience flow while programming (M=5, 1 ; on the scale of 8). Proportion of variance explained of flow was 39% (F=8, 621 ; df=92 ; p<0, 01). Variables which contributed to flow were: grade acquired in programming subjects at the university (β=0, 23 ; p<0, 05), number of programming languages one is familiar with and can use (β=0, 20 ; p<0, 05) and positive affect (β=0, 47 ; p<0, 01).
