Authors: Ghazali Zulkipli , Aigbogun Osaro 
Published: February 2024

The context in which consumers acquires a product related information has undergone dramatic transformation in recent years. There have been arguments that the product type, characteristics of the consumers, as well as the context, have an influence on search information and media channel preference. This argument has not been extended to a lead-based household paints which is a global public health concern. This study is intended to address this void by investigating a national representative estimation for information source and media channel preferences of consumers in Malaysia regarding lead-based household paint hazards. The awareness profile of the general public on the health and environmental hazards are due to the exposure of toxic to lead-based household paints was studied. The study was carried out on a conveniently recruited population of Malaysians residing in West Malaysia. A total of 657 valid responses were subjected to statistical analysis. The study highlights that the respondents were most likely to use the internet as a channel for gathering information about lead-based household paints. They were also likely to trust information from the environmental protection organizations about lead-based household paints hazards and issues, and are least likely to trust information from political parties about the subject matter.

Published: February 2024

Patient satisfaction is one of the most common indicators in determining the quality of healthcare. It is always associated with the whole treatment experience since the moment they enter the medical facilities to the time they are discharged. With an increasing constraint on the resources and demand from the customers, public healthcare service has been put under a higher pressure to continuously seek improvement to deliver better services. The main objective for this study is to demonstrate a practical approach on identifying the important factors in enhancing the patient’s satisfaction in public hospital in two main areas; the Emergency department (ED) and Medical wards (MW). For this study, a methodology which incorporates staff inputs as an important element for the development of the survey questions to determine the features that could increase the patient satisfaction that has been proposed. Based on the Kano model analysis, the main factors that contributes to the enhancement in patient satisfaction are the availability of sufficient parking area, Wi-Fi services at the ED, sleeping chairs and wheelchairs at the MW, and an effective staff communication to the patients and their relatives.

LEXICAL COLLOCATION PRODUCTIONS BY MYANMAR BURMESE REFUGEE LEARNERS IN MALAYSIA
Authors: Markundu Kannigaa , Nian Ong Shyi 
Published: February 2024

Collocations are important in language learning. This article aims to investigate the types of lexical collocations (both non-deviant and deviant forms) produced by Form Three Myanmar Burmese refugee learners in their picturebased written task and describe the possible sources for the production of deviant lexical collocations. The analysis revealed that Myanmar Burmese participants recorded a total of 93 lexical collocations and 19 (20.4%) deviant lexical collocations were identified. The most frequent lexical collocation used in the written task is Lexical Collocation Type 2 (L2) (Adjective + Noun) type. Use of synonyms was identified as the primary source of lexical collocational errors in the participants’ written task. The findings of the research indicate participants’ lack of collocational knowledge as they overused L2 type collocations, a common type. Most of the deviant collocations were related to the use of synonyms. It hints that participants are more accustomed to single word learning, thus indicating the absence of collocational teaching. The current study calls for research on collocation productions of learners to better understand their collocational knowledge, thus paving the path to incorporate it in vocabulary teaching.

DEVELOPMENT DISCOURSE AND SOCIAL SCIENCE KNOWLEDGE IN MALAYSIA
Authors: Abdulra’uf Muttaqa Yusha’u 
Published: February 2024

This article aims to explore the impact of development discourse on the production of social science knowledge in Malaysia since the adoption of the New Economic Policy (NEP) in 1971. It analyses the nexus between development discourse and the growth of social science themes in Malaysia. This nexus was methodologically tracked using a thematic content study. The paper surveys the articles published by the Akadamika Journal of social science and humanities from 1972-2010 with a special focus on the themes of development discourse in Malaysia. The paper interrogates how the development discourse in Malaysia influences the thematic debates in social science? The findings of the paper revealed four major themes that underpinned the production of social science knowledge in Malaysia. The themes include; (a) Gender and economic development, (b) Climate change and development, (c) State, capital and labour (d) Peasant transformation. The implication of the findings suggests that the Malaysian state’s industrial development significantly influences the formation of debates or construction of social science knowledge by Malaysian scholars. The paper’s findings further showed the potential of social science knowledge in contributing to the development aspirations of the state through a policy coherence between development and values system of the society. The findings also revealed the relevance of social science knowledge in achieving the sustainable development goals on gender equality, economic growth and promotion of sustainable communities in Malaysia.

HUMAN AND GHOST ATTACHMENT IN HANNA ALKAF’S THE GIRL AND THE GHOST
Authors: Abd Rahman Ain Nur Iman , Zainal Zainor Izat 
Published: February 2024

For centuries, authors of literary works have sought to bewitch and enchant readers with accounts of supernatural elements such as monsters, spirits and ghosts. Ghosts especially are often depicted as representations of evil and the polar opposite of mankind. In Hanna Alkaf’s The Girl and The Ghost (2020) the adolescent protagonist, Suraya, develops an unusual bond with a ghost, Pink. This is indeed refreshing, considering the human-ghost relationship in the local literary scene is often represented as antagonistic, opposing forces, resulting in ghosts being portrayed as evil, vengeful creatures set to taunt, haunt and wreck humans’ lives. Critical examination of the human-ghost bond in the local literary-critical practice is lacking. This research aims to fill this gap by examining the human-ghost bond in The Girl and The Ghost and how this bond contributes to the (human) protagonist’s personal development. In this paper, The Girl and The Ghost is read using John Bowlby’s theory of attachment due to its robust approach to understanding human beings' emotional bond, or attachment, with their attachment figures. We argue the human-ghost bond in The Girl and The Ghost sets the novel apart from other local ghost stories filled with wicked, destructive ghosts. The findings suggest other possibilities of attachment figures when the relationship between a mother and child grows apart. The unusual but enduring relationship between Suraya and Pink demonstrates that a child’s secure attachment need not be limited to motherly figures.

Guru PAK sebagai pengembang Kurikulum
Authors: Nelson Hasibuan  
Published: February 2024

Pendidikan pertama dan utama adalah orangtua sejak anak berada dalam kandungan ibunya sampai dengan usia dewasa. Namun mengubah persepsi masyarakat tentang peran orangtua dalam pendidikan, khususnya pendidikan agama tidaklah mudah. Oleh karena itu, penting bagi penentu kebijakan untuk mengatur instrumen pelaksanaan PAK yang melibatkan keluarga dalam proses belajar-mengajar PAK. Strategi ini telah dilakukan oleh beberapa lembaga pendidikan di Jakarta, tetapi belum ada observasi dan evaluasi terhadap pelaksanaan strategi ini sehingga belum diketahui tingkat keberhasilannya.
Pembelajaran dilakukan dalam suasana yang menyenangkan dan bersifat dialogis partisipatif, artinya terjadi komunikasi timbal balik antara guru dengan peserta didik. Terjadi diskusi dua arah yang saling mengisi. Peran guru tidak lagi sebagai satu-satunya sumber ilmu karena peserta didik dapat belajar dari berbagai pembelajaran yang ada dan tersedia. Pendekatan pembelajaran hendaknya disesuaikan dengan tingkat perkembangan peserta didik, daya serap dan kemampuannya.

An overview of ethnographic sources for the study of agriculture in medieval Novgorod
Authors: Volgina Nataliia Dmitrievna 
Published: February 2024

The subject of this article is a set of ethnographic sources related to agricultural activities. This complex includes items from the expositions of ethnographic museums, photographs from the collections of local historians and the Internet, as well as the autobiography of the peasant I.S. Karpov. The use of ethnographic sources for the study of agricultural activities in the Middle Ages is extremely important due to the fact that archaeological material does not always reach our days in complete preservation. For example, such complex devices as ploughing implements in archaeological collections only have iron tips of their working parts, therefore, it is necessary to refer to ethnographic materials to restore their appearance. The same can be said about the technology of cultivating the land. To select the necessary material for this study, the works of Russian ethnographers and archaeologists devoted to the history of agriculture and folklore were studied. A selection of photographic materials from the collections of local historians and publicly available photographs from the Internet was also carried out. The article presents an overview of various types of ethnographic materials and the experience of their application for the reconstruction of agricultural activities of the inhabitants of medieval Novgorod according to archaeological data. The main contribution of the author to the research of the topic is the expansion of the range of ethnographic sources, which are most often involved in this kind of research. In this work, the experience of using not only physical material and photographs from the collections of ethnographic museums, but also folklore, was demonstrated for the reconstruction of agricultural processes that cannot be interpreted according to archaeological data. Traditional economic activities such as farming, hunting or various crafts are rooted in the deep past and retain their characteristics for a long time. This feature allows researchers to fully reconstruct certain processes about which only archaeological evidence has been preserved, which do not always reach our days in full.
Endangered Spectacled Flying-fox: a review of past and current knowledge and future needs to re-start its recovery
Authors: Preece Noel 
Published: February 2024

ABSTRACT
The Spectacled Flying-fox has declined by 75% over the past two decades, falling in status from vulnerable to endangered even while a recovery plan was in place. This review is the first in 13 years and is necessary to bring the knowledge of the species up to date and to identify some of the most pressing issues in the bat’s conservation. Foremost among these are the already apparent extreme heat events which were not anticipated in earlier studies and plans, compounded by continuing habitat loss and declining habitat condition, deterioration of food resources that support the species, community and political pressure to disperse roosts in urban areas and diseases that disproportionately affect young and mothers in this slow-reproducing species. Perceptions of this keystone species have been coloured by the advent of Covid-19 and fears that these bats transmit coronavirus directly to humans (which they do not). It has been difficult to change negative attitudes, so better approaches to changing community perceptions are needed. Greater diligence is required to ensure recovery action is taken, to avert the threats to this keystone species and to obtain the resources to help it recover.
