Data analyzed by using Chi-Square result in the significant difference between the pretend play and play preference X² = 42.81 (p=0.05 and p=0.01). Future study needs to examine with larger samples.© 2016. The Authors. Published for AMER ABRA by e-International Publishing House, Ltd., UK.

This study aims to compare the accommodation microfluctuation before and after 5 mins of digital reading in the dark with night shift mode. Nineteen subjects were recruited using convenient sampling and a crossover design was used to compare the accommodation microfluctuations two viewing conditions. There was no significant difference in accommodation microfluctuations before and after 5-minute reading with night shift mode and without night shift mode. The insignificant findings in the accommodation microfluctuation comparison seemed to suggest that Night Shift Mode did not display as an advantage in controlling accommodation. Keywords: Digital eye strain, accommodation microfluctuations, digital reading, night shift mode. eISSN: 2398-4287© 2020. The Authors.

Student life is unique as they begin to have more freedom than children in seeking various kinds of needs for living. This study analyzes how students live and work in relation to the need for room furniture, and how small local furniture traders face problems in response to that need. From interviews, questionnaires involving 123 students and the use of descriptive statistic and Chi-square test, it was found that male and female students prefer furniture that is affordable, simple, natural, multifunction and durable, besides light, practical and flexible. A new model was proposed to solve the traders’ business problem. Keywords:  Living behavior; student room; student furniture; small business eISSN 2514-751X © 2018. The Authors.

In an effort to understand the problems and difficulties students faced in learning fractions, a study was carried out on Form 1 students from four different types of secondary schools in Perlis, Malaysia. Five different questions on proper fractions were constructed involving two fractions with equal and different denominators, and more than two fractions with different denominators. A Rasch analysis was done on the responses to help assess their level of conceptual understanding.The whole number concept was very dominant as some of the students treated the numerators and denominators separately, showing their confusion and unstable thinking in fractions learning. Keywords: Fraction understanding, proper fraction, whole number, Rasch analysis © 2017 The Authors.

The rapid increase in solid waste is a major environmental problem and recycling is argued to be a better solution to the problem. However, there is a broad agreement that there is a gap between the increasing awareness for recycling and the recycling behaviour among the consumers. The aim of this study is to investigate the recycling behaviour among 62 residents of Tioman Island. A structured questionnaire that included 33 items is used to obtain the data. The findings show a significant relationship between recycling behaviour and collectivism; a positive, weak relationship with recycling attitudes; and a negative relationship with materialism. Keywords: recycling behaviour; recycling attitudes; materialism and collectivism. eISSN 2514-7528 © 2017 The Authors. Published for AMER ABRA by e-International Publishing House, Ltd., UK .
