Headmaster collaborative leadership is important because this practice is able to contribute to the level of teachers' job satisfaction which is still an issue in the world of education to this day. This study was conducted to identify the collaborative leadership practices of headmasters and its relationship with to the level of teachers' job satisfaction in Kota Tinggi, Johor. This study is a survey using a quantitative approach. The respondents of the study consisted of 226 primary school teachers. Descriptive and inferential analysis using SPSS software was used to answer the research questions. The findings showed that the level of collaborative leadership of headmasters as a whole was at a very high level (mean = 4.45, s.p. = 0.71), while the level of job satisfaction of teachers was at a very high level (mean = 4.23, s.p. = 0.71). Analysis through a Pearson Correlation test also showed that there was a significant and strong positive relationship between the collaborative leadership of Headmaster and the level of teachers' job satisfaction (r = 0.628, p <0.01). The implication is that the Ministry of Education (MOE) needs to review the conditions for the appointment of headmasters by improving the policy of the National Professional Qualification for Educational Leaders (NPQEL) to ensure that every leader is skilled in practicing collaborative leadership. In conclusion, collaborative leadership practiced by headmasters is seen as an ideal leadership style and able to increase the level of job satisfaction of teachers.

In this paper, investigations were carried out on the effects of simultaneous partial substitution of Tl at the Hg site on the physical properties of an Hg1-xTlxBa2Ca2Cu3O8+δ cuprate superconductor with x= 0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3 and 0.4. Two steps of the solid state reaction method were used to prepare samples in capsule. The results showed that the optimum sintering temperature was equal to 850 ᵒC and the sintering time was equal to 20 h for the prepared samples.
The best conditions for constitution and stabilization of the high Tc phase-1223 were obtained by investigating the effects of Tl substitution on Hg site and oxygen content (δ) on the superconducting properties.
Structural investigation revealed that all the samples have a tetragonal structure with two phases, namely an Hg-1223 high Tc phase as a main phase and an Hg-1212 low Tc phase. Besides, some impurity phases like CuO and CaHgO2 were found. The increase of Tl content in Hg1-xTlxBa2Ca2Cu3O8+δ compound from 0 to 0.4 caused a change in the lattice parameter, density of the unit cell (ρm), and c/a values.
HgBa2Ca2Cu3O8+δ compound exhibited a critical transition temperature that is equal to 115 K. On the other side, the results showed that the highest Tc was 119 K for Hg0.8Tl0.2 Ba2Ca2Cu3O8+δ. The oxygen content (δ= 0.46) was expected to be the optimum hole doping for Hg0.8Tl0.2 Ba2Ca2Cu3O8+δ compound, which means in our opinion that δ plays a remarkable role in the assessment of Tc.

Elderly with Alzheimer's disease may experience various adverse effects on physical and psychological functions, especially depression level. Effective intervention may reduce depressive symptoms. Therefore, the current study aims to investigate the effect of individualized reminiscence therapy on depression levels among the elderly with Alzheimer's disease. The findings revealed that individualized-reminiscence therapy significantly affects the elderly with Alzheimer's depression level. In conclusion, reminiscence was beneficial through stressful life changes, reduce depressive symptoms, improving life satisfaction and having a better quality of life among the elderly with Alzheimer's disease.

Imbalance and general weakness are amongst the most common impairments in the elderly and put them at a significantly higher risk of falling. Therefore, this study aims to compare the physical and cognitive functions towards fear of falls among 80 community-dwelling elders with and without diabetes mellitus. The results revealed that there was a decline in cognitive functions, reduced in physical function and high risk of falls among the elderly with diabetes. In conclusion, balance and resistance training need to be included in the daily exercise regime to reduce the risk of falls in the elderly, especially those with diabetes.

The preservation and strengthening of the faith of Muslims can be solved through the legitimacy of the law and the preaching of the deviant teachings of fatwa in the attempt to curb and prevent the deviant teachings from developing in the state of Kedah. The ruling of Quran and Sunnah has stated that the Sunnah Wal Jama'ah(Sunni) is a safe flow of faith and accepted by the majority of Muslims around the world. Similarly, in Malaysia, besides Islam is based on the religion of the Federation, the acceptance of the Sunnah Wal Jama'ah's(Sunni's) faith in the whole of the Muslims and is guided primarily on the problems of the creed. However, it is undeniable that Muslims in Malaysia, in particular in the state of Kedah, are now squeezed with the emergence of various streams and ideologies that try to distort the holders of the Muslims against the Sunnah Wal Jama'ah (Sunni) members. This article examines the fatwa legislation and Istinbat ( the issuance) fatwa procedures in the state of Kedah directing the fatwa of akidah (faith) or deviant teachings in Kedah. The study was conducted based on the two main forms that were expected to be mutually qualitative and fieldwork research through interviews. The study also worked on the form of analysis of content which was analyzing documents such as Kedah state news and minutes of state fatwa meetings to determine the contents and meaning contained in the document. The issuance of fatwa procedure is complete under the provisions of the Mufti and Fatwa Enactments (2008). In addition, the fatwa relating to deviant teachings is through systematic procedures before the gazetting process is carried out. ABSTRAK Pemeliharaan dan pengukuhan akidah umat Islam mampu direalisaikan melalui kuatkuasa perundangan dan pewartaan fatwa ajaran sesat dalam usaha mengekang dan menghalang ajaran sesat daripada berkembang di negeri Kedah. Ketetapan dari al-Quran dan al-Sunnah yang telah menyatakan bahawa akidah Ahli Sunnah Wal Jama'ah merupakan aliran akidah yang selamat serta diterima oleh majoriti umat Islam di seluruh dunia. Begitu juga di Malaysia, di samping Islam dimartabatkan sebagai agama Persekutuan, penerimaan akidah Ahli Sunnah Wal Jama'ah sebagai pegangan seluruh umat Islam dan dijadikan garis panduan terutamanya dalam permasalahan akidah yang timbul. Walau bagaimanapun, tidak dinafikan umat Islam di Malaysia amnya khususnya di negeri Kedah kini dihimpit dengan timbulnya pelbagai aliran serta ideologi yang cuba memesongkan pegangan umat Islam terhadap aqidah Ahli Sunnah Wal Jama'ah. Artikel ini mengkaji perundangan fatwa dan prosedur Istinbat fatwa di negeri Kedah menjurus kepada fatwa akidah atau ajaran sesat di negeri Kedah. Kajian yang telah dijalankan adalah berdasarkan dua bentuk utama yang digarapkan bersama iaitu kualitatif dan kajian lapangan melalui temubual. Kajian turut menggarap bentuk analisis kandungan iaitu menganalisis dokumen seperti warta negeri Kedah dan minit mesyuarat fatwa negeri untuk diketahui isi dan makna yang terkandung dalam dokumen tersebut. Prosedur Istinbat fatwa negeri Kedah adalah lengkap di bawah peruntukkan enakmen Mufti Dan Fatwa 2008. Selain itu, fatwa berkaitan ajaran sesat yang diwartakan adalah melalui prosedur yang sistematik sebelum proses pewartaan dilakukan.
