Abstract
This study examined the relationship between attachment to parents and same ages with the autonomy of adolescents. Two
hundred and fifty secondary school students (125 girls and 125 boys) were completed questionnaires about the attachment of
parents and same ages and adolescences autonomy questionnaire. Results showed that attachment to parents and same ages
among adolescent girls in relationships are meaningful. The attachment to parents and same ages is higher in adolescent girls
in comparison with boys. But autonomy in boys and girls are not different from each other.

will continue to grow in spite of barriers and rising threats.

Abstract
The Sun is considered as one of the strongest radio sources and observation in radio region can provide information on structures throughout the solar atmosphere. In radio wavelengths, we could possible to investigate high quality images within an arc second resolution at different layers of the solar atmosphere. Solar monitoring in this wavelength makes various demands on the used antennas. Therefore, Logarithmic Periodic dipole Antenna (LPDA) was constructed for monitoring Sun in the range of (45−870) MHz to precisely match the environmental requirements. Our work focuses on preparation and performance of the antenna. Observation results of the site will also be highlighted. From the analysis, we found that the signal to noise ratio is 3.9 dB. We also make an effort analyze a y-factor of a data by select a range of frequency from 220 MHz till 250 MHz due to this range consists burst. By constructing and understanding the principle of the log dipole periodic antenna and then connect it to the CALLISTO spectrometer as receiver, some solar activities observations such as solar flares and Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) can be done. In conclusion, the log-periodic dipole antenna (LPDA) is remains the simplest antenna with reliable bandwidth and gain estimates.

Abstract
The main objective of this article was to show the effectiveness of cognitive behavior therapy (CBT) and techniques
especially designed for anxiety in cancer patient who was schedule for chemotherapy treatment. The techniques used in this
CBT counseling sessions are: cognitive restructuring, homework, problem solving, and mindfulness-based approach
(acceptance and commitment). The approaches was used because the counselor want to guide and approaches the client in
dealing anxiety by using some techniques that can change her thought, feeling and behavioral; and make her feel better in
her daily life along the cancer treatment. This approach's' is a new technique use for cancer patients in Malaysia. But it was
successfully used by some other researchers in European country.

Abstract
Productivity is a major factor for operational management. Applying the productivity tools such as TQM and TPM besides
knowing the productivity value can be two significant approaches that help organizer and policy maker to make strategies for
future. This study has tendency to investigate how the TQM and TPM influence the productivity through the managerial
components, efficiency and effectiveness. Reducing the price, improving the quality, increasing customer and job
satisfaction, promoting the profit and the growth of organization, enhancing outcome and output that leads to raise the
efficiency and effectiveness can be considered the results of implementation of TQM and TPM. The ways as to how the
other productivity tools impact on efficiency and effectiveness can be probed in future studies.

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to consider the best strategy of motion, in the rain. In this paper, not only we considered the motion of object with standing vertically on the ground, but also we measured the motion of object, with angle too. Here we will show, whether the optimal speed-angle exists in any angle or in any speed, or not. If it is exists, then we can find the optimal speed or the optimal angle. We also find out the crucial factor for the optimal speed. A very clear solution of this problem is the result of using six variables in rectangle and ellipsoidal model. Moreover, here an interesting result, in comparison between motion of object in the same time and same distance, will appear. The motion of object considered in two and three dimensional coordinate system for rectangle and ellipsoid models. The discussed model also is applicable for other fields.

The results show extreme broad distribution of the recombination time which depends exponentially on the distances between the recombining excitons. The energies at each localised state shows an energy splitting between the electronic ground state and the first excited state of 0.0038eV.

Abstract
The results of analysis of heavy metal in limestone and soil samples from the limestone deposit areas of Kitui South, Kenya were reported in this paper. The analysis was carried out to assess the environmental impact of heavy metals in the region and provide necessary data on the extent of their spread that could be used as a basis for monitoring occupational exposure and the and subsequent environmental impact once mining and processing of limestone in the region starts. Limestone and soils were sampled from three major limestone deposit areas in the region of Kituvwi, Mwanyani and Ndulukuni and analyzed for heavy elemental content using 109Cd radioisotope excited EDXRF spectrometry technique in which sample pellets were directly irradiated. The major elements detected in soils were Ti, Mn, Cu, Zn, and Pb, while in limestone they were; Ti Mn and Zn.

Abstract
The selection-based Tempt Destiny experiment has provided evidence that the fundamental acts of selection are a dichotomy as are their effects. By applying this knowledge to evaluate the preliminary findings of the Higgs boson discovery, we find an omission error has taken place.

Abstract
Information technology is the main item for improve the firm performance for organizations. On the basis of the resourcebased
view, this paper investigates relationship between Information Technology (IT) investments and firm performance. The
research assesses whether innovation is moderated by firm growth and this study investigated the mediation effects of
innovation on IT’s impact on firm performance. A set of hypotheses rooted in the resource-based view theories of the firm
was created and empirically tested. Survey email invitation approach was employed to send a letter of invitation to 1,100
potential participants at 300 firms to participate in the study. To analyze the data, both mediated regression and hierarchical
linear regression models were utilized; and following controlling for firm growth. The results of this study indicate that IT
increases the innovation of the firm. Innovation improves firm performance in terms of financial and operational. Results also
indicate that IT’s impact on innovation is significantly moderated by firm growth. Finally, the results indicate that IT’s
impact on firm performance is through innovation. This suggests that firms should consider IT investments that improve the
firm’s capabilities in order to achieve a significant impact on firm performance. The main purpose of this paper is to offer the
new perspectives in illumination how IT can create a sustained competitive advantage for the firm.

Abstract
The term “creativity” refers to a phenomenon whereby a person creates something new that has some kind of
value for other people. This study aims to examine the creative potentiality among both undergraduate and
postgraduate students in higher educational institutions. To this end, a questionnaire survey was stratified
randomly administered to 490 students in four Malaysian public universities namely University of Malaya (UM),
Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM), Universiti Putra Malaysia (UPM) and Universiti Teknologi Malaysia
(UTM). The required primary data was collected within two months from October until November 2011. The
main findings of the study showed that, firstly, most of the students stated that universities attempt to improve
creative potential among students and, secondly, the role of knowledge sharing, creative environment and
technology environment, curriculum of the study, team work and level of rock logic are very effective in
improving creative potential. Thirdly, the finding demonstrated that the level of creative potential is satisfactory
in these four Malaysian public universities. It is important for the universities to maintain focusing on creativity
and creative potential and try to further increase the creative potential for improving the self-importance.

Abstract
The study of natural radiation exposure is of importance because it accounts for the largest contribution to the collective dose for the world population from all sources. Extent of exposure to natural radiation depends on the occupation, type of dwelling, location of habitation, and lifestyle of the population. All building materials contain various amounts of natural radionuclides as they are derived from the rocks and soils, which always contain natural radionuclides of Uranium (238).

Abstract
The public is more and more demanding sustainable solutions. In case of mobility, consumers have experienced turbulent years regarding the change in economic stability, showing it in rapidly changing fuel prices, energy costs, or in general, prices for any goods and resources. Mobility and the ability to stay mobile is a driver for today’s economy. People move to go to their work, goods and resources move around the globe to reach their customers. Thinking of restricted mobility capabilities may constitute an unpleasant scenario with serious consequences to common wealth. It is thus not surprising that the call for sustainable mobility, new concepts and technologies that are environmental friendly, economical and respect social values is more evident than ever. This paper discusses some of the current trends for mobility with a focus on their potential sustainable performance.

Abstract
This review intended to update the results of combination two burst, type III and V in one solar flare event. Magnetic reconnection of both burst will be explained theoretically. Both bursts are found on 19th September 2011 associated with C-class flares on active region 1295. We concentrate on the mechanism of evolution the bursts which play a role in the event. It is found that type V burst appeared with five second after type III. There are a few sunspot regions on the solar disk but most are magnetically simple and have remained rather quiet. An interpretation of this new result depends critically on the number of sunspot and the role of active region 1295. Sunspot number is increases up to 144 with seven sunspots can be observed. During that event, the speed of solar wind exceeds 433.8 km/second with 2.0 g/cm3 density of proton in solar corona. Currently, radio flux is also high up to 150 sfu. Solar flare type C6 is continuously been observed in x-ray region for 24 hours since 1541 UT and a maximum C1 is detected on 1847 UT. Although the sources of both bursts are same, the direction and ejection explode differently. It is believed that the ejection of particles in type III burst is more compare type V. In summary, the behavior of type III should be critically understood in order to predict the formation of type V burst.

Abstract
One of most important discussion in consumer behavior and marketing sciences is choice of product and buying behavior.
Most behavioral researchers make an effort to make in behavior models. In this research, the effect of situational variables
(time available, money available) on impulse buying investigated among different ethnics in Malaysia. These variables
influenced to urge to buy impulsivity & at last this variable influenced to impulse buying. Data were collected in Malaysia
(Chinese, Indians, Malay people). In this study, Path Analysis used to measure effect of variables. A descriptive statistics
(Frequencies, Means, and Standard deviations) is used to describe the quantitative data. For measuring the validity and
reliability of items, we used CFA (Confirmatory Factor Analysis) and Alpha Cronbach Coefficient respectively. Results
revealed that the situational variables (money available and Time available) were influence to the felt urge to buy impulsively
and impulse buying. Beside that positive effect has mediating role between situation variables and impulse buying.

Abstract
Information Technology Infrastructure Capability (ITIC) is said to play a significant role in management. As a significant
contribution to a firm’s long-term success, ITI has burst as a major antecedent of organizational performance. The
development of the basic ITI in management is therefore easily forgotten. Most managers think that the ITI is a separate
component of management, but ITI must be placed beside other parts such as finance, marketing, human resource and so on
in order to advance the managing. Yet, there is little research that focuses on how availability and use of ITI enable or
constrain management. To explore this, we conducted a study and described the availability of ITI and its use in management
efforts. In this study the ITI literature in management will be reviewed and furnished, theoretically, followed by posing
discussions on different aspect of ITI. A review on the role of Infrastructure commences in advance, and afterwards, the
concepts and components of ITI literature will be provided and it continues with ITIC. The paper finds that the literature
offers a comprehensive, yet fragmented, picture of ITIC in management and its improvement ways.
