Abstract :
The issue of a person's leadership influence is frequently debated and linked to the attainment of success or benchmarks for some organisations or themselves. Many parties are interested in this issue because Malaysia is a developing country that requires leaders to ensure success is always at an optimal level. As a result, a study was conducted to investigate the impact of leadership on workplace safety and quality among employees in Malaysia's public and private sectors. Respondent information was gathered using research tools such as the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ), Individual Work Performance Questionnaire (IWPQ), and The Occupational Safety and Health Monitoring and Assessment Tool (OSH-MAT), which were distributed via a Google Form questionnaire. The researcher used a random sampling technique to collect information from 150 Malaysian public and private sector workers. According to the results of the regression analysis's inference statistics, both dependent variables are significant and have a linear relationship with the influence of leadership. Regression analysis of the influence of leadership on the quality of work produced by employees at work is positive and significant (F(1,148) = 41.263, p < .05). Regression coefficient (.467, p.05). While the regression analysis for leadership's influence on employee safety at work is negative and significant (F(1,148) = 3.428, p >.05). Regression coefficient (ß = -.150, p > .05). In conclusion, the influence of leadership has a very strong impact on the quality of work produced by employees at work and the safety of employees at work in the public and private sectors in Malaysia.

Body Image; Body Dissatisfaction; Ideals of Thinness; Self-Objectification; Eating Disorders; Anxiety
Abstract :
Humans form opinions about their bodies at a very early age, and children as young as 3 years old displayed body confidence issues. The likelihood of experiencing body dissatisfaction increases across childhood and into adolescence. Body mass index (BMI) is an important predictor of body dissatisfaction, and BMI is associated with body satisfaction across cultures. Studies on disordered eating and body dissatisfaction were predominantly conducted in Western countries. However, several recent studies suggested that women in Asian countries were vulnerable to disordered eating, similar to their Western counterparts. In Malaysia, negative body image perceptions, weight obsession and disordered eating were usually identified in adolescents with peer and emotional problems. Having a negative body image is associated with social appearance anxiety. The fear of evaluation by oneself and others is often associated with body image disturbance which is a key risk factor for the development of eating disorder symptoms among adolescents. Social appearance anxiety and eating disorders are highly comorbid. Women diagnosed with an eating disorder tend to have higher levels of BMI, drive for thinness, and body dissatisfaction. Objectification theory could explain the relationship between body image dissatisfaction and disordered eating. Objectification theory has linked self-objectification to negative emotional experiences and disordered eating behaviour in cultures that sexually objectify the female body. High levels of disordered eating attitudes and behaviours are often associated with greater objectification of their bodies.

System Justifying Belief, Belief in a Just World, Conservative Ideology and Subjective Well-Being
Abstract :
Someone adopts an ideology because ideology will help psychological needs, interpret and regulate the social world around him. In other words, ideology will help shape the right attitudes, values and societal goals and how to achieve them, so that individuals will be able to understand, predict and even rationalize the rules of society. This study examines the relationship between the system of justifying belief, belief in a just world and conservative ideology on subjective well-being in outsourced workers. A total of 321 outsourced workers currently employed at the company participated in this study. The results showed that the system of justifying belief, belief in a just world and conservative ideology correlated positively and significantly to cognitive subjective well-being aspects. While the affective aspects of subjective well-being were not found to be correlated. This is because the measurement of the affective aspect is more influenced by individual personality. This research indirectly illustrates the palliative function of ideology in helping disadvantaged groups (low economic status) in the face of inequality so that those who are disadvantaged by the system continue to recognize that socio-economic differences are legitimate and fair (support the status quo).
