FAMILY SUPPORT AND LIFE SATISFACTION AMONG MALAYSIAN ELDERLY: THE MEDIATING ROLE OF PERCEIVED FILIAL PIETY
type: item
description: Filial piety, which refers to showing respect to parents, has wielded a vital effect on the relationship between family support and the life satisfaction of elderlies. However, the mechanism behind this effect is still unclear. To address this gap in the existing literature, the present study aims to investigate the effect of family support on life satisfaction through the mediating role of perceived filial piety among Malaysian seniors. This study employed a cross-sectional design involving 154 seniors aged 60 and above residing in Ipoh, Malaysia. An online survey method was used to collect data from the participants. The SPSS version 21 software was used for descriptive data analysis (means, standard deviations, frequencies, percentages) to describe the sample's characteristics and the study's main variables. SPSS was also used to analyze the correlations between the understudied variables (H1). Mediation analyses were made to estimate the mediating effect of perceived filial piety in the relationship between family support and life satisfaction among seniors (H2). Results indicated that the correlation was significant among the variables. To respond to H2, after controlling age and gender, the effect of family support on life satisfaction was mediated via perceived filial piety. Family support was found to have a significant effect on perceived filial piety and perceived filial piety also significantly predicted life satisfaction. After controlling the effect of perceived filial piety, the direct effect of family support on life satisfaction continues to exist. The indirect effect of family support on life satisfaction through perceived filial piety was found to be significant. The findings suggest that the effect of family support on elderly' life satisfaction may be related to their perceived filial piety. Results indicate that improving family social support increases the life satisfaction of seniors. Perceived filial piety will be an added advantage to improv…

THE INFLUENCE OF EMOTIONAL INTELLIGENCE ON WORK PERFORMANCE AMONG HEALTH STAFF
type: item
description: Work performance has become a major focus in most organizations as the world of work is undergoing massive changes everyday. The purpose of this study is to identify the influence of emotional intelligence on work performance among health staff in a Hospital located in Selangor, Malaysia. This study involves 101 respondents which was chosen through convenience sampling. The quantitative data collected through Emotional Intelligence Questionnaire (EIQ) and Individual Work Performance Questionnaire (IWPQ) were analysed by using multiple linear regression. The result shows that the health staff have a moderate level of emotional intelligence with high level of work performance. The results also indicates that self-awareness, self-management and social skill were significantly influence work performance, whereas social- awareness does not have a significant influence on work performance among health staff. These findings suggest that hospital administrators should be aware that low emotional intelligence can result in lower work performance among health staff. Thus, an effective intervention should address the emotional intelligence among health staff in order to improve their work performance.

DEPRESSION, ANXIETY AND STRESS LEVEL AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS IN MALAYSIA DURING PHASE I AND PHASE II COVID-19 OUTBREAK
type: item
description: Millions of individuals throughout the world have been afflicted by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has had a significant impact on their psychological well-being. The study aimed to find out the level of stress, depression, and anxiety during phase I and phase II of the COVID-19 outbreak among university students. A self-administered questionnaire consisting of socio-demographic and DASS-21 questionnaire were used in this study. The research comprised 203 university students ranging in age from 19 to 74 years old. Most respondents were females (n=144) and males (n=59). The study enlisted the participation of 178 local and 25 international students. The students were pursuing bachelor's degrees (n=170), diplomas (n=8), master's degrees (n=5), and doctoral degrees (n=20). In the phase I study the stress score was (mean = 12.06, SD = 9.30), while in phase II, the stress score increased to (mean = 13.51, SD = 12.18). Meanwhile, the phase I study the depression score was (mean = 12.48, SD = 11.17), while in phase II, the depression score slightly increased to (mean = 12.85, SD = 12.16). For the phase I study the anxiety score was (mean = 11.26, SD = 10.06), while in phase II, the anxiety score reduced to (mean = 9.53, SD = 10.18). The anxiety level was improved in phase II of COVID-19, however, the depression and stress levels did not show the reductions. A deeper knowledge of stress, depression, and anxiety among university students is required to allow for early intervention and improvement of overall mental health problems among the students.

JOB INSECURITY, PERCEIVED SOCIAL SUPPORT AND PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING AMONG PRECARIOUS WORKERS IN MALAYSIA
type: item
description: The economic crisis is one profound effect caused by the emergence of Coronavirus Disease. Many Malaysian organisations have downsized and retrenched their staff to deal with it, resulting in an increase in the number of Malaysians engaging in uncertain and unstable works as their coping strategies. As a result, psychological well- being is crucial in maintaining individual’s emotional and mental health. Previous research has focused on factors correlated with psychological well-being in Western populations; however, it remains sparse in Malaysian setting. Hence, this study aims to explore the relationship between job insecurity, perceive social support and psychological well-being among precarious workers in Malaysia. A total of 150 responses were collected through snowball and convenient sampling method, and asked to answer the WHO-5 Well- being Index Scale (WHO5), Job Insecurity Scale (JIS), and Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MPSS) for this preliminary study. The findings revealed a negative correlation between job insecurity and psychological well-being, and a positive relationship between Perceived Social Support, and psychological well-being. This means that precarious employees who are insecure about their jobs are more likely to have poorer psychological well-being, whereas precarious workers who have greater social support from family, friends, and significant others are more likely to be mentally healthy. These findings can thus assist non- government, government, or practitioner policymakers in strengthening specific policies to assist precarious workers, particularly those related to their psychological well- being, such as providing them with special insurance or life benefits.

THE EFFECTS OF SOCIAL COMPARISON ORIENTATION ON PSYCHOLOGICAL WELL-BEING AMONG UNIVERSITY STUDENTS
type: item
description: University student’s psychological well-being is reported to be highly affected during the Covid-19 outbreak. To further explore the engagement between the sources of one's deflating well-being during this pandemic, this study was conducted to investigate the influence of social comparison orientation (SCO) on one’s psychological well-being (PWB). A total of 401 undergraduate public university students in Malaysia participated in this study through the convenient sampling method. This study was a cross-sectional and correlational study which used quantitative data for analysis. The instruments used were Iowa-Netherlands Comparison Orientation Measure (INCOM) and shortened 18-items version of Ryff’s Psychological public university. Regression analysis showed that there is a significant effect of SCO on PWB among students in public universities. It was found that high level of ability-based SCO will decrease PWB while high level of opinion-based SCO will increase PWB among public university students. In conclusion, this study highlighted the negative and positive effects of SCO on student’s PWB through upward social comparison theory and social cognitive theory in higher-educational institution level. As to fully utilize the positive effects of opinion-based SCO, this study recommends public universities in Malaysia to develop a strong social support group as a platform for students to increase their PWB by feeling affiliated.

PROBLEMS OF MIDDLE EASTERN LITERATURE TAUGHT IN THE PHILIPPINES: A CRITICAL REFLECTION BY THE LOCAL ACADEMIA
type: item
description: This paper accounts academic discourses in selected Middle Eastern Literature, both as a critical discourse and a means for cultural education, with reflections on the Philippine socio-political and cultural conditions. Issues such as stereotypes, racism, and the postcolonial remains were central to the discourse. Drawing from accounted responses of literature students, it is seen that their encounter with Middle Eastern Literature is deeply informed by their personal and socio-cultural phenomena. This qualitative study was conducted using Purposive Critical Case Sampling. Informants of the study are World Literature students from Far Eastern University, with different academic programs, age, gender, religious, and cultural background. Both the multicultural approach to literature and Said’s orientalism are vital in the shaping of the informants’ understanding and appreciation of Middle Eastern Literature, as revealed in the major themes elicited in the informants’ critical engagements. Overall, this paper shall contribute to the body of knowledge in three ways: as an existing study in literary theory and criticism, as a philosophical discourse on postcolonialism and its remains in developing countries like the Philippines, as well as in the growing study on literary education and cultural studies.

JOB INSECURITY AS A BARRIER TO WORK ENGAGEMENT DURING PANDEMIC COVID-19: WORK-FAMILY INTERFACE AS A MODERATOR
type: item
description: The upheaval induced by the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in job insecurity, which may lead employees to have less engagement with their work. Drawing upon the role stress theory and role enhancement theory, we postulated that the detrimental impact of job security on employee engagement can be further attenuated or strengthened by the employee’s work-family interfaces. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between job insecurity and job engagement during the COVID-19 pandemic. The study further aimed to examine the moderating role of the work-family interface in the relationship between job insecurity and job engagement. Data was obtained from 284 employees in Malaysia via a self-administered questionnaire. Out of the total, 43% were male, whereas 57% were female. The average age of the participants was 38 years old. Three instruments were used in this study, namely the job insecurity scale, job engagement scale, and work-family interface scale (WFIS). The empirical data was analysed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) version 28 software. Two main results were found. First, job insecurity negatively affected job engagement (B= -.735, SE= .189, t= -3.895, p<.001). Second, the negative impact of job insecurity on job engagement can be attenuated by the negative work-to-family interface (B= .131, SE= .064, t= 2.041, p=.042), positive work-to-family interface (B= .179, SE= .063, t= 2.829, p=.005), and the positive family-to-work interface ((B= .130, SE= .065, t= 2.003, p=.046). Although the COVID-19 pandemic has been moved to an endemic, employees' job insecurity remains high due to Malaysia's unstable economic and political conditions. Based on the study's findings, we found that effective work-family inferences can minimise the negative impact of job insecurity on job engagement. This paper will provide greater detail on how work-family inferences can attenuate the negative association between job security and employee engagement…

RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN DISPOSITIONAL MINDFULNESS AND LIFE SATISFACTION AMONG UNDERGRADUATE STUDENTS IN MALAYSIA: COGNITIVE REAPPRAISAL AS THE MEDIATOR
type: item
description: Undergraduate students are facing different challenges and stressors in their life, which may lower their life satisfaction. Dispositional mindfulness has been found to increase life satisfaction, and this relationship might include cognitive process namely cognitive reappraisal. Hence, grounded in Mindfulness-to-Meaning Theory, this study examined cognitive reappraisal as the mediator in the relationship between dispositional mindfulness and life satisfaction among 147 undergraduate students (aged 18-25 years old) who were studying in Malaysia. A non-experimental correlational design was used, where the students were required to fill in three questionnaires through Google Form survey, the results were analysed through hierarchical multiple regression. The results supported all four hypotheses, with significant positive relationships found among dispositional mindfulness, cognitive reappraisal and life satisfaction. Cognitive reappraisal partially mediated the relationship between dispositional mindfulness and life satisfaction. The findings provide valuable information for the experts to devise mindfulness interventions by incorporating cognitive reappraisal strategies, allowing students to use cognitive reappraisal to cope with challenges, improving life satisfaction.

THE ROLE OF QUALITY OF WORK-LIFE AS MEDIATOR IN EFFECT OF PSYCHOLOGICAL CAPITAL ON WORK ENGAGEMENT AMONG EMPLOYEES IN COMPANY X IN BATAM, INDONESIA
type: item
description: Today workforces encounter challenging situations. Experts and leaders stated that we currently live in a volatile, unstructured, complex, and ambiguous (VUCA) environment. Moreover, external factors outside organizational circumstances including psychological and emotional state might influence work engagement. However, PsyCap was found to buffered and combat these negative reactions in the workplace. Quality of Work Life (QWL) was also found to be affecting work engagement. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the role of QWL among the effects between PsyCap and work engagement among employees in Company X in Batam, Indonesia. This cross-sectional study used a quantitative design and obtained the data using questionnaires. The data was analyzed using PROCESS Version 4.1. by Hayes (2020) in SPSS Version 25.0. The result shows PsyCap and QWL effects work engagement positively. Moreover, PsyCap was also found to positively effects QWL. Lastly, the result also shows that QWL partially mediated the effect between PsyCap and work engagement.

type: item
description: Background: The significant changes in daily routines of the COVID-19 pandemic have impacted relationship satisfaction among marital couples worldwide. Married couples who experienced loneliness during the COVID-19 pandemic may lead to low relationship satisfaction. However, relationship efficacy could buffer the direct association of loneliness with relationship satisfaction. Objectives: This study aimed to examine the relationship between loneliness and relationship satisfaction among married couples during the COVID-19 pandemic by using relationship efficacy as a moderator. Methodology: 150 married couples participated in the cross-sectional quantitative online survey. The self-administered questionnaires consisted of UCLA 3-item Loneliness Scale, Relationship Assessment Scale and Relationship Efficacy Measure. The present study employed Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) software to analyse the data. Results: First, the findings revealed a negative association between loneliness and relationship satisfaction. Second, the moderation effect of relationship efficacy was significant in the association between loneliness andrelationship satisfaction. Conclusion: The results supported the crucial role of relationship efficacy in a marital relationship. Ultimately, relationship efficacy can minimise the negative impact of loneliness on relationship satisfaction. In short, couples believing they can resolve conflict with their partners will likely promote better relationship satisfaction. This study alsopresents several practical and theoretical implications.

TRANSLANGUAGING: CO-CONSTRUCTING MEANINGS IN A MULTILINGUAL SETTING
type: item
description: Being an expatriate teacher in Brunei made me consider different strategies and techniques in language teaching. This paper attempts to discuss my reflections on the use of translanguaging as a pedagogical tool in a student-centered learning environment with multilingual learners whose native languages are beyond my linguistic repertoire. Translanguaging has gained a lot of attention since its coinage in Southeast Asia, but there appears to be a paucity of this concept in language research specifically in Brunei context. In the same vein, Barr and Tagg’s learning paradigm was used to frame the discussion and expound on how translanguaging as a pedagogy could be a powerful tool in an environment where students are expected to co-construct knowledge with their teacher. In doing so, I posit that translanguaging empowers both teachers and students in constructing meanings however, if the teacher is not in any way familiar of their first language, students’ communicative competence might also be at risk.

SMARTPHONE ADDICTION AND LONELINESS AMONG STUDENTS
type: item
description: Smartphones are becoming necessary in an individual’s daily life, especially when everything is within the palm. Smartphone becomes problematic when there is uncontrolled usage, which could harm various aspects. Loneliness can occur when an individual is alone and even surrounded by people. In order to further explore the correlation between smartphone addiction and loneliness, this study is conducted to identify the association between smartphone addiction and loneliness among undergraduate students in Malaysia. A total of 308 undergraduate students from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM) were involved in this study. The instruments used were Smartphone Addiction Scale Short Version (SAS-SV) and UCLA Loneliness Scale (Version 3). The results indicate that 60.7% of participants reported having a moderate smartphone addiction, and 42.24% had a moderately high level of loneliness. Pearson’s Correlation results show a significantly weak positive relationship between smartphone addiction and loneliness among undergraduate students. This finding can give insight into smartphone addiction and loneliness, contribute data to future studies, and recommend initiatives to improve undergraduate students’ well-being.

The purpose of this paper is to review the paper systematically to explore determinants of e-business adoption in Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) of developing countries. E-business has substantial potential for SMEs in developed and developing countries alike. Nevertheless, to accelerate the shift from traditional business to e-business in developing countries faced many challenges in practical use and the issues have not been adequately addressed (Mkansi.M, 2020). In the scarcity of the extant literature, the direction of future work outlined. Guided by PRISMA technique (Moher et al., 2009), three online databases, Scopus, Web of Science and Springer Link Journal were deployed, resulting in 27 articles were included in the literature review and have been identified and diversified into various factors which related to the frequency of occurrence in many researches which apply technology-organization-environment (TOE) framework (Tornatzky and Fleisher, 1990). Further analysis of the studies under TOE framework revealed four significant themes: (1) Technological Context, (2) Environmental Context, (3) Organizational Context, and (4) Individual Context. The themes are combined into a proposed e-business adoption framework and recommendations are reconciled according to the proposed framework. This paper incorporates the insights of the determinants of e-business adoption in SMEs, it suggested pertinent issues for future research endeavors and serve as a portrait for more SMEs entrepreneurs in developing countries to adopt e-business to sustain, remain competitive and bloom in current covid-19 pandemic and hereafter.

description: Art criticism is a process of reading, studying and analyzing the beauties inherent in works of art, to help specialists in a sound vision of the artistic, aesthetic and creative aspects of the artwork. Therefore, this study aims to identify the role of Feldman's theory in the process of art criticism. The importance of the study is manifested in revealing the role of the art criticism process in highlighting the objective, expressive and aesthetic values of the artistic work of Feldman's theory. This study is an artistic analysis that will reveal information about the role of Feldman’s theory in art critisicim. The study utilized the qualitative method of research. The researcher analysed the data collected for the study based on Feldman’s approach to evaluate artwork that involves the following four steps: descriptive, formal analysis, interpretation and Judgment. The discussion section focuses on the detailed analysis of the artistic criticism method by Feldman. The study concluded that the steps of artistic criticism, according to Edmund Feldman, are sequential, regular and integrated critical steps, because they enter the essence of the artwork and describe the external form, content and meaning within the work, and also describe the different and varied values of the artwork, whether (formal, expressive or functional). These artistic critical steps serve as a means for us to read the artwork correctly and properly in an integrated and systematic manner.
