Stigma and protective factors: a study of resilience among youth with disabilities

Abstract

The main aim of this study is to generate empirical data to show any common phenomena in the protective factors of youths with disabilities and if stigmatizing experiences influences subsequent interactions with protective factors. Protective factors are elements that are known through years of research to be crucial for the development and maintenance of resilience. This study is a mixed method research design. Eight respondents (4 males and 4 females) were selected based on two wide categories: visible and invisible disabilities. A bilingual 5 point Likert scale resiliency questionnaire was used on all respondents to measure the strengths of their 10 protective factors. Brislin back-translation method and factor analysis on an initial sample of 46 students was used to form the Malay version and to determine construct validity and reliability. Individual resiliency profiles were generated from this instrument which allowed for the scrutiny for common patterns while interviews guided b.....

Synthesis and spectroscopic studies of alkyl substituted thiourea derivatives towards the selected antibacterial activities

- Wan M. Khairul, Suskri Siti Aishah, Rahamathullah Rafizah, Ismail Noraznawati,

Abstract

In this study, new members of alkyl substituted thiourea derivatives of (RC(O)NHC(S)NHCH2CH(CH3)NHC(S)NHC(O)-R) in which R represents alkyl group namely isobutyryl and pivaloyl were successfully synthesized for their antibacterial activities. The compounds were spectroscopically and analytically characterized via infrared (IR) spectroscopy, ultraviolet–visible (UV– vis) spectroscopy, CHNS elemental analysis as well melting point analysis. In turn, they were screened for antibacterial activity using selected bacteria namely, Micrococcus sp., Salmonella typhi, Aeromonas sp., Klebsiella pneumoniae, Bacillus cereus and also Escherichia coli. From the antibacterial test, all synthesized compounds were found to exhibit great potential results as antibacterial agents, except for 1 which did not show inhibition activity towards Klebsiella pneumoniae. Thus, these proposed molecular structures have given ideal indication to act as antibacterial agents which have utmost potential in pharmaceu.....

Central limit theorem in a skewed leptokurtic distribution

Nor Aishah Ahad

Abstract

According to the central limit theorem, the distribution of the sample mean is approximately normal if the sample size, n, is sufficiently large, regardless of original data distribution. However there seems to be a difference in opinion on how large n should be. Some books said that n = 25 is sufficient enough while some considered n = 30 to be sufficient. This paper investigates the size of n that would allow us to apply the central limit theorem when samples taken are from a population. Keywords normal, central limit theorem..

Abstract

Kajian ini dijalankan bagi mengkaji perbezaan tahap kualiti perkhidmatan pendidikan tinggi (KPPT) dan dimensi-dimensinya mengikut jenis politeknik dan, menentukan hubungan di antara dimensi-dimensi KPPT dengan tahap KPPT secara keseluruhannya. Kajian dijalankan di dua buah Politeknik di Perak, menggunakan pendekatan kuantitatif dan melibatkan sampel yang terdiri daripada 320 orang pelajar. Data yang dikumpul menggunakan borang soal selidik telah dianalisis menggunakan statistik deskriptif dan inferensi, iaitu ujian-t bebas dan korelasi Pearson. Dapatan kajian menunjukkan bahawa terdapat perbezaan yang positif dan signifikan bagi tahap KPPT. Secara keseluruhannya di antara politeknik, tetapi tidak bagi dimensi-dimensi KPPT. Analisis korelasi pula menunjukkan bahawa tiga dimensi KPPT, iaitu pembelajaran dan pengajaran, perkhidmatan sokongan dan fasiliti dan perkhidmatan mempunyai hubungan yang signifikan dengan KPPT. Secara kesimpulannya, empat daripada tujuh hipotesis yang dibuat adalah.....
