This study aims to prove whether transformational leadership training is effective for building anti-corruption attitudes of villages in Kebonharjo village, subdistrict Samigaluh Kulonprogo. This research is an experimental research with one group pre and posttest design.Subject design is 17 people from village of 21 candidates registered. Measuring tool used in this research is the scale of anti-corruption perception made by the researcher referring to the 9 anti-corruption values with the value of reliability coefficient of 0.871. The module used as an intervention made by the researcher refers to the transformational leadership dimension (Bass, 1990). The data collected is analyzed by statistical analysis of different test Paired Sample Test. Initial data collection results obtained sign value of 0.770 which means> 0.05 or no significant difference between anti-corruption perception score between before and after training. After a period of less than 1 (one) month then conducted again the measurement of follow-up of the study subjects in the measurement again using the scale of anti-corruption perception. The results of the second data collection were analysed with Paired Samples Test and obtained the value of 0.623 sign meaning p> 0.05 or no significant difference between post test data with follow-up data so that the hypothesis of this study was rejected.

Reasoning skills are very important in encouraging students to think more critically and logically, as depicted in the Malaysian Education Development Plan (2013-2025). Therefore, this study looked into improving the Differentiation Reasoning Level (DRL) of reasoning skills among students for a topic in the Additional Mathematics subject,  known as Differentiation, through reasoning learning strategy. The study participants consisted of a total of 31 students from a secondary boarding school in Johor, selected through a purposive sampling method. A pre-test was carried out for the participants, from the advanced level, followed by a number of repetition tests, before the post-test assessment was conducted. The data collection for this study employed a set of Reasoning Test on Differentiation (RTD) and 10 sets of learning activities on Differentiation based on modified Marzano Rubric for Specific Task of Situations (1992). This dimension involved four types of reasoning skills, namely,  comparison, classification, inductive, and deductive. The survey data, through paired samples t-test, revealed a significant difference between the mean scores in pre-test and post-test (p <0.05). In addition, the paired sample t-test showed a significant difference on the level of reasoning among students from each construct in the reasoning skills before and after using this module. In conclusion, the Marzano Model of Dimensional Learning (1992) is a thinking skill model that can help improve students' reasoning skills. The model covers analysis aspects of what has been learned by implementing the process of identifying reasons, which will help students to add and expand their knowledge. The findings also implied that, the processes of teaching and learning play an important role in ensuring students’ capability to emphasize on the implementation process of reasoning skills

Abstract Objective SWAY is a mobile software system using an accelerometer designed to measure postural sway and reaction time in the context of concussion. This study examined the efficacy of SWAY in detecting changes in balance and reaction time before and after concussion. Methods College athletes (N = 30, 10 females) underwent baseline, post-trauma, and follow-up evaluations following a concussion including SWAY, mBESS, Sports Concussion Assessment Tool 5th Edition (SCAT-5), and Immediate Post Concussion Assessment and Cognitive Testing (ImPACT). Results Paired-samples t-tests revealed a decline in SWAY balance from baseline (M = 82.65, SD = 14.48) to post-trauma (M = 74.61, SD = 17.41), t(29) = 2.99, p = 0.006, but no significant difference was observed in reaction time (M = 5.07, SD = 13.61), t(29) = 2.04, p = 0.050. Meanwhile, balance improved at follow-up (M = 78.93, SD = 15.32), and was no longer discrepant from baseline (M = 81.97, SD = 14.51), t(21) = 1.03, p = 0.316. Similarly, there was a significant decline in mBESS scores from baseline (M = 2.88, SD = 3.62) to post-trauma (M = 5.68, SD = 5.32), t(24) = −3.51, p = 0.002, followed by a return to baseline at follow up (M = 4.22, SD = 4.95), t(22) = −1.60, p = 0.124. Conclusions Although challenges were apparent in obtaining an optimal baseline, current results appear to support the clinical utility of SWAY for assessing balance in the context of concussion evaluations. Further research appears warranted to support SWAY as a method of diagnosing concussion and monitoring return to baseline.

Abstract: Human body needs various substances to function properly; one of which is micronutrient. Iron is one of the micronutrients required by the body that is involved in several body processes including hemoglobin formation, energy metabolism, and immune system. Iron can be excreted through feces, urine, and sweat which could increase as a result of doing vigorious physical activity. This study aimed to compare blood iron level before and after vigorous intensity exercise. This was a pre-experimental study with one group pre-test post-test approach. Respondents were chosen by using simple random sampling method. The vigorous intensity exercise was playing futsal for 2 x 20 minutes and a 10-minute rest without any subtitution. The results showed that the mean of blood iron levels before vigorous intensity exercise was 83.86 ug/dL and after the exercise was 84.95 ug/dL. The analysis using paired-samples t-test showed a P value = 0.595. Conclusion: There was no significant difference between blood iron level before and after vigorous physical activity.Keywords: blood iron level, exxercise, vigorous intensityAbstrak: Tubuh manusia memerlukan berbagai macam zat untuk berfungsi, salah satunya ialah mikronutrien.

The effects of a group music-based intervention on attachment and psychosocial adaptation in adolescents with parental attachment insecurity were examined in Taiwan. A randomized controlled trial with a pre–post and follow-up design was performed. The music group ( N = 28) attended a 40-min session twice weekly for 10 weeks. The nonmusic group ( N = 28) received health education. The groups underwent a parental attachment and psychosocial adaptation assessment before and after the music intervention and at the 1-week follow-up. The results were analyzed using paired-samples t-tests and a mixed analysis of variance. Fifty-four participants completed both the pre- and posttests and were included in the final data analysis. The interaction effect was statistically significant, parental attachment, F(1.07, 25.81) = 8.18, p < .005, η2 = .14; and psychosocial maladaptation, F(1.30, 31.93) = 8.01, p < .01, η2 = .13, scores, implying a successful intervention. A significant difference in the postintervention parental attachment, F(1.03, 25.81) = 19.19, p < .001, and psychosocial maladaptation, F(1.28, 31.93) = 14.22, p < .001, scores was found between the music and nonmusic groups. The present study confirmed that group music-based interventions may effectively improve adolescents’ parental attachment and mitigate their psychosocial maladaptation.

Introduction: Dysmenorrhea or menstrual cramps is a pain (usually in the pelvis, lower back or abdomen) during menstruation. The pain usually begins several days before or during menstrual bleeding starts. It is often mild but in some cases, the symptoms may be more painful and cause discomfort. Dysmenorrhea is divided into two categories including primary (not associated with pelvic pathology) and secondary (resulting from underlying diseases) dysmenorrhea. The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of hot pack and stretching exercises on pain in adolescent girls with primary dysmenorrhea. Method: This was an experimental research with two group pre-test and post-test design. Twenty girls of students in Class X who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were assigned in two groups: hot pack (n=10) and stretching exercise groups (n=10).  The menstrual pain was measured using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) before and after six times interventions. The pain score changes in each group were analysed using paired sample test while the comparison means for hot pack and stretching groups were assessed using independent samples t-test.  Result: The results revealed that the intensity of the pain in both hot pack and stretching exercises group were declined (p <.05). After conducting independent sample t-test, it was found that there was a statistically significant difference between the level of pain for the hot pack and stretching group (p = 0,001). Conclusion: Hot pack is more effective in reducing dysmenorrhea (menstrual pain) compare to stretching exercises.

This study aims to investigate whether the use of six selected short stories throughout the duration of a 14-week course could enhance students’ reading comprehension achievement at the end of the semester. Out of the six short stories read, three were chosen as in-class assignments known as ‘Personal Reading Logs’ (hereafter, PRLs). One group of semester two Diploma students taking a reading skills course was selected through a convenience sampling method. A pre-test was conducted by having the students answer a past semester reading quiz of which the results would then be compared to their post-test (final reading exam) results. A paired samples t-test revealed no significant difference in the reading scores of the pre-test and the post-test, t (17) = -.265, p > .05. Since the p-value was bigger than 0.05, this indicated that the mean reading score of the post-test (M = 50.556) was not significantly higher than the mean reading score of the pre-test (M = 49.722). Therefore, the null hypothesis which stated that there was no difference in the mean score of the pre-test and post-test was retained. Overall, the result refuted the findings of other studies promoting the effectiveness of using short stories to enhance L2 reading comprehension achievement.

Abstract Grandparents often protect against childhood trauma and promote resilience through their nurturance, love, and support when raising grandchildren. Despite the beneficial role grandparents have on their grandchildren, grandparents may experience challenges of their own, including physical, mental, and emotional health issues, lack of resources, and social isolation. Few interventions exist to help grandparents successfully adapt to the challenges they face as primary parenting figures. The purpose of this study was to test preliminary efficacy of a strengths-based intervention for grandparents raising grandchildren aimed at increasing self-care behaviors, managing emotions, and connecting to community resources. Grandparents (N = 137) providing primary care to grandchildren were recruited to participate in a single-group, pre- and post-test design, 6-week intervention. Self-efficacy was assessed at baseline, post-intervention, and at a 6-month follow-up. To evaluate who the intervention might be most beneficial for, grandparents’ service knowledge, perceived support from others, and length of care provided, measured at baseline, were analyzed for moderating effects. Results of paired-samples t-tests reveal significant increases in self-efficacy (p = .013) from baseline to post-test, which were maintained at the 6-month follow-up (p = .010). Hierarchical multiple regression showed interaction effects of the hypothesized moderators were not significant, indicating improvements in self-efficacy regardless of individual variability at baseline. As demonstrated, interventions can be effective at increasing self-efficacy in grandparents raising grandchildren and strengths-based approaches have the potential to provide universal benefits to grandparents, thus improving functioning in grandfamilies and promoting the health and well-being of grandparents and their grandchildren.
