Survey on level of understanding about Baitulmal among students in UiTM Puncak Alam / Nurul Huda Amir Azha

As an institution that manages the assets and property of the Muslims, Baitulmal has a great deal of trust and responsibility in distributing property to the community. However, is the existence and the roles of the Baitulmal itself known to the general public? There is a need for the public especially the students to recognize the role of Baitulmal in improving the economy and developing the country. Thus, a research about Baitulmal Institution was conducted with the purpose of giving awareness to the students of UiTM Puncak Alam. The main objective in this research is to analyze the level of understanding about Baitulmal among UiTM Puncak Alam’s students. This research is based on the information obtained from quantitative method which is through questionnaire form. Questionnaire form is the main method of data collection in this research. The students will answer and give their opinion about Baitulmal through the questionnaire form. All the data and information was analyzed to evaluete and determine the level of understanding about Baitulmal among UiTM Puncak Alam’s students.

The relationship between personality traits and English language speaking anxiety among Faculty of Economics and Management undergraduates in UKM

The role of personality in second and foreign language learning are acknowledged and are viewed as useful predictors of language learning success. Personality can either encourage or inhibit language learning, and language anxiety among students often stem predominantly from speaking situations. The present study investigated the personality traits and English language speaking anxiety among Faculty of Economics and Management (FEP) undergraduates in UKM. Additionally, the study examined any significant relationship between the personality traits and English language speaking anxiety among FEP UKM students. A total of 104 FEP undergraduate students from Business, Economics, Accounting, and Entrepreneurship majors across different years of study were selected using purposive random sampling to participate as respondents to this quantitative study. The Big Five Inventory (BFI) and English Language Speaking Anxiety Scale (ELSAS) were used to identify personality traits and levels of English language speaking anxiety respectively. Results were tabulated and run through SPSS to obtain a correlation matrix. The results show Openness, Agreeableness, and Conscientiousness as the most recurring personality trait of FEP undergraduates. A majority of FEP undergraduates have moderate level of Communication Apprehension and Fear of Negative Evaluation. Pearson Correlatives show a positive relationship between Communication Apprehension and Fear of Negative Evaluation with Neuroticism, but a negative relationship with Extraversion

QUEM É O ESPÍRITO LIVRE EM HUMANO, DEMASIADO HUMANO?

O presente trabalho se propôs a verificar as características que perpassam a personagem espírito livre em Humano, Demasiado Humano (1878): por certo não se trata do chamado livre-arbítrio; o homem que atingiu a liberdade se desvinculou da moral tradicional, assim tornando-se um imoral, ou seja, despreza o que é tido como dever pelos valores vigentes, não por acaso o difamam ou caracterizam-no de criminoso; ele é a exceção, enquanto seu irmão mais rude, a regra. A observação psicológica se mostrou enquanto condição para a investigação apropriada, procedimento vinculado às próprias intenções do pensamento de Nietzsche. É uma análise puramente psicológica e, portanto, não transcendente, o que se relaciona com a nova psicologia antidogmática proposta por Nietzsche. O filósofo alemão preocupa-se, no início do capítulo segundo, com a carência de observação psicológica por parte das pessoas, e isso permitiu o presente trabalho concluir que esse procedimento é realizado apenas por espíritos livres, ou seja, as exceções. Com efeito, o sujeito preso no cativeiro moral não investiga suas motivações na mesa de dissecação psicológica, pois vincula-se aos métodos tradicionais

Hepatic encephalopathy: a neurochemical, neuroanatomical, and neuropsychological study.

Hepatic encephalopathy (HE) is normally diagnosed by neuropsychological (NP) tests, which are not very specific and do not reveal the underlying pathology. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectroscopy (MRS) of the brain offer alternative and possibly more specific markers for HE. These methods were applied in conjunction with NP testing in order to determine their usefulness in the identification of HE and to understand the pathogenesis of HE more clearly. MR imaging and spectroscopy examinations, in addition to a battery of 15 NP tests, were administered to investigate 31 patients awaiting liver transplantation and 23 healthy controls. MR image intensities from the globus pallidus region were calculated and normalized to those of the thalamus. Absolute concentrations and ratios with respect to creatine (Cr) of several metabolites were computed from MR spectra. The MR data were correlated with the results of NP tests. The patients showed impairment in NP tests of attention and visuospatial and verbal fluency. In T1-weighted MRI, the relative intensity of the globus pallidus with respect to that of the thalamus region was significantly elevated in patients and correlated(negatively) with three NP tests (Hooper, FAS, and Trails B). The absolute concentrations of myo-inositol (mI) and choline (Ch) were significantly reduced in three brain regions. In addition, the absolute concentrations of glutamine (Gln) and combined glutamate and glutamine (Glx) were increased in all three locations, with Gln increase being significant in all areas while that of Glx only in the occipital white matter. In summary, this study partially confirms a hypothesized mechanism of HE pathogenesis, an increased synthesis of glutamine by brain glutamate in astrocytes due to excessive blood ammonia, followed by a compensatory loss of myo-inositol to maintain astrocyte volume homeostasis. It also indicates that the hyperintensity observed in globus pallidus could be used as complementary to the NP test scores in evaluating the mental health of HE patients
