Chapter 2 delves into how leaders through technological advancements such as virtual communication and online meetings, despite their inherent challenges, can foster unique avenues for the articulation of diverse opinions and the matching of specific skills with corresponding tasks. Chapter 3 discusses how esports have become a significant social and economic phenomenon and poses a new challenge for sports psychology. Chapter 4 reviews a study done on financial literacy and its role in an individual’s financial well-being. Chapter 5 discusses Theory of Mind (To M) which is the ability to represent one’s mental states and those of others. Chapter 6 aims to identify and discuss the main post-pandemic challenges for career counseling with emerging adults. Chapter 7 explores the role of motivation in the context of Alzheimer’s disease, based on self-determination theory. Finally, Chapter 8 explores the rare coexistence of science and art through Freud’s perspective, examining how these two different approaches contribute to the interpretation of psychoanalysis.
