The lowest limit of KMO value is .5, and values between .5 and .7 are mediocre, values between .7 and .8 are middling, values between .8 and .9 are meritorious and values above .9 are marvelous (Field, 2009). In the pretest, the value of KMO was .855 which suggested that the sample size was adequate for factor analysis. Furthermore, the value of Bartlett’s test showed that the inter-independent of the measurement of each construct was highly significant (p < .001). Therefore, the instrument of high reliability was appropriate to perform the factor analysis (Field, 2009). For the testing results of KMO and Bartlett’s measure, please refer to Table

The Socio-behaviorist theory (behaviorism) Socio-behaviorists often study how children 's experiences model their behaviors (Nolan & Raban, 2015). Behaviorism believes that what matters is not the development itself, but the external factors that shape children 's behaviors (Nolan & Raban, 2015). This theory demonstrates that teachers and mentors dominate and instruct child-related activities, and they decide what children should learn and how to learn (Nolan & Raban, 2015). Reinforcement, which is an essential factor that helps children to learn particular behaviors, generally refers to rewards and punishments (Nolan & Raban, 2015). Children are more likely to repeat actions that result in receiving praise; in contrast, they may ignore or abandon behaviors that make them get punishment.
As a freshman, Kobi took on the challenge of high school in the way a small child takes on a chocolate bar, very enthusiastically. “I was really really excited to get to know everybody,” Kobi said with a smile. Kobi came to the Casco Bay community knowing only one other person. To some people this may have been daunting, but to a cheerful, buoyant freshman, it drove Kobi’s persistence to become friends with everyone. During Freshman Quest, Kobi was so focused on socializing with his peers that he could not focus on bonding and making connections with his crew.
My highest scoring category was extravert (47%) which I feel represents my personality. My greatest quality I feel I hold is my outgoing attitude towards things whether good or bad. I keep optimism with everything and continue to keep the same excitement in what I'm doing even if it's not easy, but to me I want to continue to represent a good image and keep the ones who look up to me or follow me know that everything is okay. I believe that's a quality that a leader has to have to even be a leader, almost the responsibility of leaderships. So naturally being so excited and motivated everyday is what makes me feel like I can be a great leader and why so many people think of me as someone they can relate and look up too.

Literature Review Social Support Albrecht and Adelman’s study (as cited in Kendall Hunt Publishing Co., 2011) provided a definition of social support as “verbal and non-verbal communication between recipients and providers that reduces uncertainty about the situation, the self, the other, or the relationship, and functions to enhance a perception of personal control in one’s life experience”. Social support is any type of communication that helps an individual feel more secure or certain about a situation and therefore being able to feel that they have control over a situation (2011, Kendall Hunt Publishing Co.). According to Hunt, social support emphasizes the availability of the network of people that provides support, therefore, the presence
