Abstract

Fear of failure (FOF) has been reported as a construct that hinders individuals from achieving higher, working harder, and even moving from one stage of development to another. Studies indicated that university students with traits perfectionism tend to develop FOF, which prevented them for achieving better accomplishment in their academic life. In order to obtain further knowledge to curb FOF among this population, this study investigates which one of the three dimensions of perfectionism (self-oriented, other-oriented, socially prescribed) is the main predictor of FOF. 351 participants from the target population of 4,000 undergraduate students from UCSI University, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia were recruited via convenience sampling to provide us with their data through a Google Form. Perfectionism dimensions were measured by the multidimensional perfectionism scale and fear of failure by the performance failure appraisal inventory. The collected data was analyzed via simple and multiple regression by multiple regression technique, and the findings showed that self-oriented and other-oriented perfectionism did not significantly predict the fear of failure. However, socially prescribed perfectionism was the only significant predictor of the fear of failure among the perfectionism model, therefore indicating that it was the most significantly predictor as well. In conclusion, students are more likely to be afraid to fail when they believe that there is a social standard of perfection that they have to follow.

Abstract

This research aims to find out the government's policy on a full-day school in shaping the character of students in Islamic Education institutions, namely how the history of the full-day school policy is determined, how the implementation of the full-day school policy and how the implications of the creation of the full day school policy. This research is a type of library research that is centered on the study of some literature related to the issues discussed such as Permendikbud No. 23 of 2017, the results of research on Full Day School and the regulation. The result of this study is that the full-day school policy has been implemented simultaneously in 2017. The Minister of Education and Culture launched the full-day school policy through the authority of Permendikbud No. 23 of 2017 concerning school days, then followed by Presidential Regulation No. 87 of 2017 concerning character education. The implementation of the full-day school policy in shaping the character of students requires structured management, such as good planning, curriculum innovation, excellent programs, and extracurricular activities. The positive implications of the full-day school policy can shape the character of students, but it cannot be denied that there are negative implications that cause a lack of student interaction with family and society, causing boredom if learning is not innovative and interactive. The negative impact of the full-day school policy also has an impact on teacher work discipline. Therefore, the implementation of full-day schools needs regular evaluation to produce quality education and generation.
