Mitigating Misconduct Behavior and Psychology among Public Service Officers through Human Governance Components: Preliminary View from Malaysia and Indonesia
Get PDFPurpose: This article shall examine the drivers influencing to mitigate the misconduct behaviour among public service officers. It shall also provide a preliminary view on the extent to which factors are able to deter misconduct amongst public officials in Malaysia and Indonesia.
Theoretical framework: There are two levels of variables included in the conceptual framework of the current study, which are the antecedent variables of human governance factors (i.e., leadership, religiosity, spirituality, culture, training and development, recruitment and selection, integrity and internal control policy, rewards, knowledge sharing) and mitigating misconduct behavior.

Findings: This study illustrates that all the variables are vital in in mitigating misconduct behavior among public service officers. The public service officers will be involved in misconduct behavior when the organization fail to capture the problem. Based on the rotten apple theory, unethical behavior affects others in the same systems. Hence, the issue of ethical among public service officers need to be taken into consideration which will affect the reputation of organizational performance.
Research, Practical & Social implications: Future research should focus on the comparative discussion for both government agencies and private agencies. It is because human governance concept is not merely cover for the government sector, but it can be related to the private sectors and even MNC.
Originality/value: The proposed of nine elements of human governance can be used as a strategic tool to mitigate the issue of misconduct behavior among public service officers from Malaysia and Indonesia perspective. This is in accordance with the research conducted by previous researchers, which implied that to reduce the issue of misconduct behavior such as corruption, it is vital for the regulatory authorities to carry out the proper rules and initiatives related to misconduct behavior practices.

The Psychology of Belief and Doubt in Al-Farabi Philosophy of Religion
No full textPsychology of belief and doubt appears in the state of individuals, philosophers, or researchers where they reiterate that something is correct and can be trusted while the other is not true which automatically emerges doubt. The research article tried to understand this psychology of belief and doubt regarding the philosophy of religion given by Al-farabi. Al-farabi was a scholar and philosopher popularly known for his mathematics, medicine, and metaphysics work. Al-farabi was an intellectual and pragmatic thinker, so this also drove his philosophies. He was among the Islamic scholars who gave less importance to religion and more preference to the sciences and math and emphasised the development of humankind. Sufism very much influenced his early life; hence, in his religious beliefs, Sufism has been able to find space. His belief in finding common ground in religion and politics in Islamic society is doubtful because Islamic countries had yet to be secular in politics. This concept of belief and doubt has been covered here with the help of secondary data from peer journals and analysed through thematic analysis. The data analysis has been discussing this in five different themes based on the concept of belief and doubt, importance of region and religious belief, religious philosophy of Al-farbi and the beliefs and doubts of philosophy of Al-farabi
Effect of Biomechanical Feedback Device Utilizing Tilt and Tension Sensors on Young Adults Balance Control Ability, Proprioception and Craniovertebral Angle (CVA)
No full textIntroduction: Due to the continuous development of technology, smartphones have become an essential part of our daily lives. These devices offer us convenient access to information and communication, but they also contribute to poor posture, characterized by bending the neck and shoulders forward. This poor posture can lead to reduced physical activity and muscle imbalances, ultimately resulting in kyphosis of the back.
Objectives: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a biofeedback device using a tilt sensor and a tension sensor on balance control ability, proprioception, and craniovertebral angle(CVA) in young adults.
Methods: The 10 subjects participated 3 times. Before the start of the experiment, the height, sitting height, weight, CVA, balance control ability, proprioception of the subjects were measured. The tilt sensor, tension sensor, and tilt + tension sensor interventions were conducted for 30 minutes each. Experiments were conducted at intervals of one day.
Results: As a result of measuring balance control ability according to tilt, tension, and tilt + tension, there was no significant improvement in all three groups. Repositioning errors were significantly improved after intervention in the tension group and the tilt + tension group in extension cervical joint position error(JPE)(p<0.05). In right rotation, only the tension group showed significant improvement (p<0.05). The CVA improved significantly in all three groups after intervention (p<0.05).
Conclusions: In conclusion, both biofeedback devices prevent thoracic kyphosis, positively affecting the CVA. Among them, biofeedback using tension can have a positive effect on the proprioception of the neck
