Mon, Redee Sut Txi

Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of integrating biofeedback training into a periodized training program on psychophysiological, physical fitness and shooting performance outcomes among junior archers. This study involves a pre and post experimental design with a control group and two experimental groups. Twenty-one junior archers (Mean age=15.0±1.7 years) completed the whole study protocol. Participants were matched according to their shooting scores and they were assigned into either three groups; biofeedback training group (BFT), physical training group (PT) and control group. Both experimental groups underwent three months of periodized training program provided by the researcher, while the control group continued their training program provided by their coach until the end of the study period.

Pembinaan instrumen dan penentuan tahap kemahiran proses sains dalam kalangan pelajar tingkatan 2

Wong, Yew Tuang

Abstract

Walaupun Kementerian Pelajaran Malaysia memberi penekanan terhadap pemupukan kepada 12 kemahiran proses sains dalam kalangan pelajar, namun tiada satu instrumen kemahiran proses sains yang dapat mengukur kesemua kemahiran proses sains. Kajian ini bertujuan untuk menjana suatu instrumen kemahiran proses sains yang bukan sahaja bersifat komprehensif, tetapi juga mempunyai kesahan, kebolehpercayaan, indeks diskriminasi dan indeks kesukaran yang bersesuaian. Instrumen ini kemudiannya digunakan untuk menentukan tahap penguasaan kemahiran proses sains dalam kalangan pelajar Tingkatan 2 berdasarkan lokasi, jantina dan kumpulan etnik di sekolah-sekolah menengah di Bahagian Kapit, Sarawak. Sehubungan itu, metodologi kajian dibahagikan kepada dua fasa. Fasa pertama merupakan fasa pembinaan instrumen di mana seramai 111 orang pelajar Tingkatan 2 yang merentas kebolehan dan pencapaian akademik digunakan sebagai sampel untuk menguji rintis.....

A study on the integration of Confucian humanism and China modern enterprise management

Xinyan, Zhao

Abstract

This dissertation aims to explore the integration of Confucian humanistic thought with modern Chinese enterprise management. Employing a mixed-methods approach that combines qualitative and quantitative research, it analyzes key elements, pathways, and effects of integrating Confucian principles into corporate governance through typical enterprise case studies. Furthermore, utilizing questionnaire surveys and interviews, it investigates employee satisfaction regarding the incorporation of these ideas into management practices. Finally, a systematic comparative analysis is conducted based on the findings from both types of research.The study reveals that the impact of integrating Confucian humanistic thought into modern Chinese enterprise management varies across dimensions such as employee satisfaction and market competitiveness. Among the elements,_benevolence (ren), the doctrine of the mean (zhongyong), and moral integrity (de)_ demonstrate more prominent positive effects on promotin.....

The effects of the Dalton plan-based instruction on learner autonomy in reading performance among Chinese college English course learners

Tianxiu,Qi

Abstract

This study investigates the effects of Dalton Plan-based instruction on learner autonomy and reading performance among non-English major students enrolled in college English course in China. It addresses the limitations of teacher-centered instruction in College English courses, particularly its failure to cultivate learner autonomy, which contributes notably to students' poor reading proficiency. The Dalton Plan-based instruction in this study included weekly individual sessions and monthly class conferences, tailored to address student-reported issues in reading assignments. A quasi-experimental design was employed to achieve the research objectives. Participants included 62 second-year medical students from a university in China, with 32 assigned to the experimental group and 30 to the control group. The experimental group received Dalton Plan-based instruction, while the control group followed conventional classroom instruction. Quantitative data, including reading test scores and .....

The impact of workforce diversity on innovation performance among Emirates steel manufacturers in the United Arab Emirates with risk orientation as a moderator

Madhi, Hasan Mubarak

Abstract

This study examines the impact of workforce diversity on innovation performance among steel manufacturers in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), with a focus on risk orientation as a moderating factor. Utilizing a quantitative research design, 400 employees were randomly selected from a population of 10 steel companies, resulting in 351 valid responses after accounting for outliers. The analysis was conducted using SMART PLS 4.0 software. The instrument used in this study consists of 68 items, demonstrating high reliability and validity. The findings reveal significant impacts of age (_=0.341, p=0.00), education (_=0.45, p=0.00), language (_=0.123, p=0.02), religious beliefs (_=-0.114, p=0.00), and values (_=0.083, p=0.00) on innovation performance. In contrast, ethnicity (_=0.09, p=0.06), gender (_=-0.129, p=0.06), and norms (_=-0.021, p=0.63) showed no significant impact. Risk orientation significantly enhanced innovation performance (_=0.264, p=0.00), but its moderating effects on the r.....

Community of inquiry,self-regulated learning, and learners' satisfaction in entrepreneurship massive open online courses (MOOCS)

Mohd Muslim Md Zalli

Abstract

Massive Open Online Courses (MOOCs) as a new learning platform are rapidly growing, providing learners with positive learning outcomes. Although past studies have highlighted the experiences in MOOCs from the perspectives of learners, the insights to the satisfaction in learning within the MOOC context is still marginal. Based on the Community oflnquiry (Col) model and Self-Regulated Leaming (SRL) theory, this study has examined the relationships between teaching presence, social presence, cognitive presence, self-regulated learning, and learners' satisfaction in Malaysia MOOCs. A sequential explanatory mixed-method approach has been employed. Data has been collected from 398 MOOCs learners through a web-based survey, with 11 learners subsequently being interviewed to provide depth to the data. The hypothesised relationships have been tested using structural equation modeling (SEM) via AMOS version 23, while ATLAS.ti version 8 have been employed to assist .....

Spatial modelling of regional consumer services industry in Shandong province

Ailiang, Xie

Abstract

The consumer services industry plays a crucial role in supporting regional economies and improving the quality of urban life. In Shandong Province, however, its development has shown clear disparities between coastal and inland cities, reflecting uneven resource allocation and infrastructure conditions. Although these differences are widely recognized, there has been a lack of systematic spatial modeling to explain the mechanisms shaping such heterogeneity. This study applies a spatial modeling approach to examine the regional consumer services industry in Shandong Province. The analysis extends the Cobb_Douglas production function by incorporating energy input and embeds a spatial distance matrix to capture spatial dependence. Methodologically, the research combines the Modified Delphi_ Hierarchical Grey_Fuzzy (MDHGF) algorithm with econometric estimators, including Ordinary Least Squares (OLS), the Spatial Lag Model (SLM), the Spatial Error Model (SEM), and Geographically Weighted Re.....
