The Effects of Parental Attachment on Personality Traits

“…The p-value was smaller than the significance value of p= .050.

Alienation is always being related to "protective" behaviour, and somehow, it leads to positive behaviour as caring about others and empathy.…”

“…The p-value was smaller than the significance value of p= .050.

From the result, we can see a relationship between strict parents to nerd behaviour (have goal-directed behaviour).…”

(2017), which claimed that alienation and openness were not related to each other. Strict parents are not significant to an openness personality that is adventurous and creative.…”

“…The p-value was bigger than the significance value of p= .050. This result is consistent with the previous research that has been conducted by Alomeroglu et al (2017), which mentioned that alienation and extraversion do not have any relationships with each other. No correlation in extraversion means there is no desire to spotlight the participant and there more into low-key.…”

Explaining of Nurses’ Perception of Professional Relationship in the Coronary Care Unit (CCU)

Further, by executing communicational skills development programs, the level of communicational skills would be improved in the nurses (48)(49)(50)(51).…”
