Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

One predicament facing an educationist is whether grammar should be taught formally, or allowed to be naturally acquired. A protracted case study was carried out on seven Malay students from the International Islamic University Malaysia to determine the extent to which students acquired English prepositions in the naturalistic setting. Data from st

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Introduction: There is a limited number of teacher and parent-reported questionnaires available for screening developmental and behavioural issues in children and adolescents in the Malay language. Therefore, there is a need for research on the translation and development of such a survey, particularly in the Malay language, to enhance the treatmen

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

An oft-debated issue is whether or not English grammar has to be taught formally. One group insists that students will not be able to learn grammar unless they are taught formal grammar rules, while the other maintains that students will pick up grammar on their own in due course. To determine the extent of acquisition of English prepositions in th

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Educationists are often in a predicament as to whether grammar should be taught formally, or whether it can be deliberately learned. This question is especially pertinent in Malaysia where there has been a general deterioration of grammar skills among English as a second language (ESL) learner.

In modern psychology, envy is linked with a group of negative mental health outcomes, such as depression, anxiety, and aggressive behaviors. This study is an attempt to develop a scale of envy management based on the teaching of al-Ghazali, one of a Muslim scholar known

Optimization of multi-Channel Quartz Crystal Microbalance for Gas Sensing Application
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Mass detection sensor Quartz Crystal Microbalance (QCM) measures mass sensitivity by piezoelectric, high frequency shaving on nanograms. These sensors detect with high precise geometry, low cost and ease of production. Conventional QCM sensors are limited to one electrode structure that minimizes the range of sensing. On a single quartz crystal sub

Influences of the Input Factors Towards the Success of an Information System Project
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

This study tried out three input factors which theoretically affect the success of information system (IS) project. These factors were adopted from the McLeod and MacDonell’s (M&M’s) project framework and then examined using survey toward the internal project stakeholder in a sampled institution. A stratified sampling was carried out based

Scheduling of the Battery for Peak Shaving Using Model Predictive Control (Mpc)
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

In this age of technology, the higher demand of renewable energy has become the main factor that contributes to the increasing power consumption. The electrical power generated needs to match with the load demand or the power consumption of the consumers, or else it will lead to the mismatch of supply and demand problem. However, the spike in the l

Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Purpose: Dry eye in women is more prevalent postmenopause and alterations in sex hormone levels may be implicated. This study explored the relationship between serum concentration of sex hormones and dry eye symptoms and ocular surface signs. Methods: The study involved 46 postmenopausal women diagnosed with non-Sjögrens dry eye and not taking hor

Detection of Delayed Dental Development in Hypodontia Through Dental Age Assessment Using Panoramic Radiographs
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

The estimation of age is required for treatment planning in dentistry, medical, forensic or legal fields. From numerous studies, the development of tooth was tied to chronological age (CA). Some authors had found that the development of permanent teeth in children with hypodontia was delayed when compared with a matched control group. The delay wil
