Determinants of Risk Tolerance on Financial Asset Ownership: a Case of Malaysia
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The present study intends to shed new light on the issue of determinants of risk tolerance among Malaysians using data obtained from a survey. The main analysis is based on ordinary least square (OLS) method of regression using level of financial risk tolerance as the dependent variable and socio–economic factors as regressors. The preliminary an

The Influence of Colour on Memory Performance: a Review
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Human cognition involves many mental processes that are highly interrelated, such as perception, attention, memory, and thinking. An important and core cognitive process is memory, which is commonly associated with the storing and remembering of environmental information. An interesting issue in memory research is on ways to enhance memory performa

The Effects of Stimulus Rate and Electrode Montage on the Auditory Brainstem Response in Infants
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Purpose This study investigates the effects of different stimulus repetition rates and multiple electrode recording montages (ipsilateral, contralateral, horizontal, and vertical) on the auditory brainstem response (ABR) wave V amplitude and latency in infants. Methodology Eleven healthy infants with the mean age of 4.36 ± 1.95 months were involve

Scorpion Image Segmentation System
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Death as a result of scorpion sting has been a major public health problem in developing countries. Despite the high rate of death as a result of scorpion sting, little report exists in literature of intelligent device and system for automatic detection of scorpion. This paper proposed a digital image processing approach based on the floresencing c

An Investigation of Temperature Effect on Incremental Forming

metal change with an increase in temperature. For these reasons it is very important to investigate the temperature effect on the manufactured part by incremental forming. In the present paper, the temperature is investigated numerically through finite element simulation and experimentally using thermography nondestructive technique. Both experimen

Evolution of Naca23012 Wake Vortices Structure Using Piv
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The formation and development of a wing‐tip vortex in a near and extended near field were studied experimentally. A swept‐back tapered wing with a NACA23012 cross‐section was used as a vortex generator. Particle image velocimetry as a whole field velocity measurement technique was used in a low‐speed wind tunnel to measure and characterize

Poverty and Poverty Alleviation Programmes in the Sudan: Policy and Administration
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Sudan is among those developing countries characterized by high incidence of poverty in spite of its prodigious resource endowments. Sudan government has continued to introduce programmers aimed at alleviation of poverty which were generally characterized by lack of effectiveness. The traditional approach towards poverty reduction centered on natio

Understanding the Influence of Colour on Memory Performance
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study intended to examine the effect of ground colour on memory performance. Most of the past research on colour-memory relationship focus on the colour of the figure rather than the background. This study tries to extend the previous works to the background colour and how its effect memory performance based on recall rate. This study used bet
