This study set out to presents the results of an empirical study of the the relationship betweennetworking to Muslim SMEs success and Islamic practice as moderator. Recent studies have not been able to establishIslamic practices as a moderator especially for Muslim SMEs success. Therefore, a study was conducted on 122 successful Muslim SMEs (business over three years) under PUNB (Perbadanan Entrepreneur Nasional Berhad) using simple random sampling method and data were analyzed using PLS software (Partial Least Squares). The results show that network factor have a relationship on the Muslim SMEs success and Islamic religious practice factor moderate this relationship.

Abstract Household levels of deprivation to water, sanitation, and hygiene (WaSH) and residential conditions in slum settlements of Lagos, Nigeria were assessed and mapped using slum deprivation index (SDI). A structured questionnaire was administered to 1,398 households in 16 settlements using a random sampling method. Descriptive statistics and SDI were employed to analyze the data while ArcMap was used to map the patterns of SDI. The results show that households live in poor dwelling conditions with limited access to WaSH facilities. The SDI indicates that 18.7% of the slums are highly deprived. Based on WaSH and dwelling and physical environment (DPE) components, 18.75 and 31.25% of the slums are highly deprived. Water, sanitation, and hygiene indicators show that 37.5, 12.5, and 56.25% of the slums are highly deprived respectively. About 50, 37.5, 43.75, and 31.25% of the slum are highly deprived based on dwelling, waste disposal, waste pile, and stagnant water respectively. The study concluded that six settlements live in deplorable WaSH and DPE conditions. The study recommends urgent intervention for planning and resources allocation, and sustained urban renewal programs at Oko-Baba, Ilaje, Oko-Agbon, Abule-Nla, and Badia for improved WaSH and living conditions for sustainable service delivery and healthy slum settlements.

The main purpose of this study is to investigate prospective teachers' critical thinking and metacognition levels. The study is descriptive in nature and based on relational screening model. The participants were selected using stratified sampling method which is one of the random sampling methods, and 293 teachers became the participants of the study. The data collected via "California Critical Thinking Scale" and "Metacognition Scale" were analyzed using independent groups t-test, one-way variance analysis, correlation analysis as well as the descriptive statistics. Results show that although the participants' metacognition perceptions differed according to gender in the evaluation and organization dimensions, no significant differences were found in the other dimensions. The participants' perceived critical thinking levels did not show significant differences according to the departments they attend in the seeking truth, open-mindedness, analyticalness, systematicity, curiousness and total dimensions. Critical thinking total scores were found to display a negative relationship with evaluation, organization, and metacognition total scores while they showed a positive relationship with seeking the truth, open-mindedness, analyticalness, systematicity, self-confidence, and curiousness scores.

Apart from transformational leadership, a factor that can affect organizational citizenship behavior is interpersonal trust. When the interpersonal trust among employees is very strong, they tend to show strong Organizational Citizenship Behavior. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of transformational leadership and interpersonal beliefs on organizational citizenship behavior. Researchers distributed questionnaires to 100 respondents. The sampling method is probability sampling with a simple random sampling type. The data analysis method in this study is a quantitative method and Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) with the Partial Least Squares (PLS) approach. The results of this study state that transformational leadership affects organizational citizenship behavior and interpersonal beliefs affect organizational citizenship behavior of employees.</p><p><strong>BAHASA INDONESIA ABSTRACT:</strong></p><p>Salah satu faktor yang mendorong terjadinya <em>organizational citizenship behavior</em> adalah kepemimpinan transformasional.
