摘要:The study seeks to investigate the effect of Residential Outdoor Education (ROE) camp toward group cohesion on the first year undergraduate teacher trainees from Universiti Pendidikan Sultan Idris, Perak, Malaysia. A pre-test and post-test approach with the non-equivalent control group was utilised among 142 (n=142) first-year undergraduate students (aged between 18-25 years old). Modified versions of the Group Environment Questionnaire (GEQ) questionnaire were applied to gather data from pre and post-test. As a result, the experimental group had greater perceptions of group cohesion (both social and task cohesion) after the experience of ROE camp. Besides, it was significant that the mean scores for GI-S were slightly increased and above the midpoint of the scale and the standard deviations were relatively small in comparison to the respective means.
