Outdoor learning usually refers to organized learning that takes place outside the confines of a classroom. This study aims to empirically examine the effects of teachers‘ knowledge, attitude and skills on out-door instruction in Kenya. The study adapted a survey research design. A sample of 135 teachers was randomly obtained from a population of 318 teachers. The response rate was 77.59 per cent. Data was collected using both closed and open ended questionnaires. Data was analyzed by employing descriptive statistics, Pearson correlation and multiple regression analysis. The findings revealed that teachers‘ Knowledge, Attitude and Skills (KAS) are positively associated with out-of-classroom instruction in Kenya. The generalizability of the findings is limited as the study focused only in Kenya. Based on the findings, the study recommends that schools should focus on encouraging development of knowledge, attitude and skills in teachers thus promoting the use of out-door instruction in science. This study contributes to the theoretical and practical knowledge by providing the evidence about factors affecting science teaching. It is also expected to extend the knowledge on out-door learning.

The research on factors that affect employee motivation at Bentre Import Export Joint- stock Corporation (Betrimex) has special significance in motivating employees, attracting and retaining talent, thereby helping the Corporation improve work performance. During the research, 300 employees working at Betrimex were surveyed and 250 employees with valid answer sheets were selected, survey data was processed with the SPSS software and the research model through scale reliability analysis, exploratory data analysis, correlation analysis and multiple regression analysis was tested. The research results have shown 07 factors affecting employee motivation at Betrimex, measured through 37 observed variables and including the pay, bonuses, benefits, allowances, working conditions, relationships with colleagues and relationships with superiors. Where the pay (b = 0.403) is the factor that has the most powerful influence on employee motivation and working conditions (b = 0.171) have the least influence on employee motivation. The results of multiple regression analysis have also showed that the adjusted R2 is 0.732. Thus, 07 independent variables can explain 73.2% of the variations of the dependent variables. Also, the research results have tremendous implications for developing strategies and plans for human resources development of Betrimex in the future.

The green building (GB) can be defined as the method of increasing the efficiency of the building and site. However, the spillover effect of GB price in Malaysia has not widely been discovered as there are limited case studies on this issue. This paper attempts to determine the significant factors that influence the GB price. The empirical experiment has been conducted to test the Multiple Regression Analysis (MRA) model on a real dataset of house prices in the area of Klang Valley, Selangor with GB specifications. The result showed that factors related to tenure have significant contributions to the GB price

Background and Objectives: Pain affects psychological stress and general health in the working population. However, the factors affecting psychological job stress related to chronic pain are unclear. This study aimed to clarify the structural differences among factors affecting psychological job stress in workers with chronic pain and those without pain. Materials and Methods: A stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed the differences in structure between the psychological stress of workers with chronic pain and those with no pain. Psychological job stress by the Brief Job Stress Questionnaire was used as the dependent variable, with psychological state (depression and anxiety), specifically that characteristic of chronic pain (pain catastrophizing); information on the nature of the pain (intensity and duration); and number of years of service as independent variables. Selected independent variables were evaluated for collinearity. Results: In the model with psychological stress as a dependent variable (chronic pain: r2 = 0.57, F = 41.7, p < 0.0001; no-pain: r2 = 0.63, F = 26.3, p < 0.0001), the difference between the experiences of workers with chronic pain and those with no pain was that chronic pain was associated with depression (Beta = 0.43, p < 0.0001) and no pain with anxiety (Beta = 0.34, p < 0.0001). In the model with chronic pain-related depression as a dependent variable (r2 = 0.62, F = 41.7, p < 0.0001), job-life satisfaction (Beta = −0.18, p = 0.0017) and magnification (a dimension of pain catastrophizing; Beta = 0.16, p < 0.0001) were significant. Conclusions: The results of this study suggest that the psychological characteristics of chronic pain, such as depression and magnification, should be considered when evaluating and intervening in the job stress of workers with chronic pain.

Abstract: This study investigated the influence of financial ratios on company’s performance in Malaysia and Indonesia F&B industry period 2011 – 2018. The samples generated 37 F&B companies and 12 F&B companies listed on Bursa Malaysia and Indonesia Stock Exchange respectively. By using multiple regression analysis for panel data, the study revealed that CR and DER had no influence on ROA, while TAT and NPM had positive effect on ROA. Also, CR and DER had no influence on ROE in Malaysia F&B industry, but then, these variables had positive effect on ROE in Indonesia F&B industry. While TAT and NPM had positive effect on ROE. This paper is expected to provide beneficial information to related parties to take better consideration on the actual variables having significant effect on company’s ROA and ROE. This paper is also academically expected to be a beneficial reference for further research development.Keywords: F&B Industry, financial ratios, company’s performance, Indonesia, Malaysia. Faktor-Faktor yang Mempengaruhi Kinerja Industri Makanan dan Minuman di Malaysia dan Indonesia Abstrak: Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis pengaruh rasio keuangan terhadap kinerja perusahaan di industri makanan dan minuman di Malaysia dan Indonesia periode 2011 - 2018. Sampel penelitian adalah 37 perusahaan makanan dan minuman yang terdaftar di Bursa Malaysia dan 12 perusahaan makanan dan minuman yang terdaftar di Bursa Efek Indonesia. Hasil penelitian dari analisis regresi berganda untuk data panel menunjukkan bahwa CR dan DER tidak berpengaruh terhadap ROA, TAT dan NPM berpengaruh positif terhadap ROA. CR dan DER tidak berpengaruh terhadap ROE pada industri makanan dan minuman di Malaysia, namun berpengaruh positif terhadap ROE di Indonesia. TAT dan NPM berpengaruh positif terhadap ROE. Makalah ini diharapkan dapat memberikan informasi keuangan yang bermanfaat bagi manajemen perusahaan terkait untuk lebih mempertimbangkan variabel aktual yang berpengaruh signifikan terhadap penilaian ROA dan ROE pada perusahaan. Makalah ini juga diharapkan secara akademis dapat menjadi referensi yang bermanfaat untuk pengembangan penelitian selanjutnya.Kata kunci: industri makanan dan minuman, rasio utang terhadap ekuitas, kinerja perusahaan, Indonesia, Malaysia
