2023-04-24 , Abdul Rahman Abdul Manaf , Afifi H. , Mohammad Rezal Hamzah , Adila Ismail , Yasmin Ahmad , Huzili Hussin , Huzili A.I.

Online shopping has become a trend nowadays and a survey shows that youngsters among Generation Y are the most active users on using online shopping. In the meantime, National Consumer Complaints Centre (NCCC) has received lots of complaints about online shopping scams. Therefore, this study determines the psychological factors influencing online shopping behaviour among students of Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP). A conceptual framework is proposed by applying the constructs of Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) including attitudes, subjective norms, perceived behavioural control, buying behaviour and two additional factors which are perceived risks and perceived benefits adopted from the past empirical studies which are determined as psychological factors of online shopping. This quantitative research used a questionnaire via google form link distributed to 390 respondents selected by convenience sampling among UniMAP students. The results showed that attitude, perceived risks and perceived benefits had relationship toward online buying due to p=<0.05. Meanwhile, subjective norms have a very weak relationship with r-value=.130 and perceived behaviour control was not correlated with online shopping (P-value=0.870). Perceived behavioural control influence an individual's understanding of the complexity or ease of executing a specific action concludes that psychological factors partially influence online shopping among UniMAP's students.

2023-04-24 , Yasmin Ahmad , Mohammad Rezal Hamzah , Huzili Hussin , Adila Ismail , Shuhairimi Abdullah , Yusof H.A.M. , Abdul Rahman Abdul Manaf , Huzili A.I.

The reality of ethnic and cultural diversity in the classroom today is a massive challenge for teachers, especially prospective teachers. The teacher education program is vital in educating prospective teachers with culturally responsive pedagogy and teaching students from various ethnic and cultural backgrounds. A school environment consisting of students from various ethnic and cultural backgrounds requires teachers to meet their needs. Teachers must be culturally competent to respond effectively in terms of diversity in their classrooms and prepare their students to live and work in a global society. Preparing prospective teachers for this role is not an easy task and what makes it more difficult is that the diversity of teachers does not always match the diversity of students in schools. This paper will discuss cultural competency among prospective teachers and related theories regarding this issue. Teachers and prospective teachers should show professional competencies that will enable them to work effectively, respectfully, and ethically with students from diverse ethnic and cultural backgrounds.

2023-04-24 , Yusoff H.A.M. , Mohammad Rezal Hamzah , Abdul Rahman Abdul Manaf , Adila Ismail , Yasmin Ahmad , Huzili Hussin , Huzili A.I.

Social media has been well-established in health-related purposes, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. Preliminary reviews have summarized social media uses for a distinctive health purpose such as health interventions, health campaigns, medical education, and disease outbreak surveillance. The most recent thorough review of social media uses for health purposes, however, was conducted in 2013. A systematic review that covers various health purposes is needed to reveal the new usages and research gaps that emerge in recent years. This study aimed to provide a systematic review of social media uses for health purposes that have been identified in previous studies. The researchers searched for peer-reviewed journal articles published between 2010 and 2020 in.10 databases covering medicine, public health, and social science. After classifying the articles in terms of publication year, journal area, country, method, social media platform, and social media use for health purposes, the researchers provided a review of social media use for health purposes identified in these articles. This study summarized 7 social media uses for various health purposes by health organizations, health researchers and practitioners, and the public. Social media can be used for various health purposes. Several new usages have emerged since 2013 including advancing health research and practice, social mobilization, and facilitating offline health-related services and events. Research gaps exist regarding advancing strategic use of social media based on audience segmentation, understanding the impact of health identity development, and addressing privacy concerns and evaluating the impact of social media in health interventions.

Against this concern, this paper will provide a conceptual understanding on the predictor towards online self-disclosure, which is privacy concerns among the users. According to the summary of literatures, it is hypothesized that privacy concerns will hamper self-disclosure online. Based on the proposed framework, propositions are formulated as a basis for the study that will follow.

2023-09-12 , Adila Ismail , Mohammad Rezal Hamzah , Habee Bullah Affandy , Nathan S.S. , Michiko O.

Researchers have demonstrated in different contexts that a variety of antecedents forecast the construction of privacy concerns, which in turn predicts privacy-protective activities (privacy concerns) and results of self-disclosure. This concept paper suggests three antecedents that will contribute to the relationship of privacy concerns and self-disclosure online among social media users. Social identity, self-efficacy, and perceived control are identified as the antecedents, with negative relationships are predicted with privacy concerns, and positive relationships predicted with online self-disclosure. Based on the proposed framework, propositions are formulated as a basis for the study that will follow.
