    This study aims to explain the effect of employee friendliness, understanding of the products sold, and the diversity of product items on consumer loyalty through consumer satisfaction at Alfamart in the city of Surabaya. The object of observation is consumers who visit Alfamart to shop. In this study, observations were made of 200 consumers who were shopping at Alfamart stores, provided that the consumer has made purchases at least five times at any Alfamart store in Surabaya. The analytical method used is the structural equation model (SEM), with exogenous variables: friendliness of salespeople; the salesperson's understanding of the products, and the completeness and variety of available product items; endogenous variables: consumer loyalty; and the intervening variable: consumer satisfaction. The compared models are model-1, where loyalty is positioned as an endogenous variable with customer satisfaction as an intervening variable, and model-2, where customer satisfaction is an endogenous variable with loyalty as an intervening variable. The findings and results of the study indicate that: (1) the friendliness of the salesperson has a significant positive effect on customer satisfaction; (2) customer satisfaction has a significant positive effect on loyalty; and (3) from the comparison of the two models, it can be stated that the better model in explaining the phenomenon under study is model-1. Thus, these findings further support the theory that loyalty arises after a person feels satisfied

    Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis

    The present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed

    Variations on the Author

    “Variations on the Author” discusses two of Eduardo Coutinho’s recent films (Um Dia na Vida, from 2010, and Últimas Conversas, posthumously released in 2015) and their contribution to the general question of documentary authorship. The director’s filmography is characterized by a consistent yet self-effacing form of authorial self-inscription: Coutinho often features as an interviewer that rather than express opinions propels discourses; an interviewer that is good at listening. This mode of self-inscription characterizes him as an author who is not expressive but who is nonetheless markedly present on the screen. In Um Dia na Vida, however, Coutinho is completely absent form the image, while Últimas Conversas, on the contrary, includes a confessional prologue that moves the director from the margins to the center of his films. This article examines the ways in which these works stand out in the filmography of a director who offers new insights into the notion of cinematic authorship

    Appropriate Similarity Measures for Author Cocitation Analysis

    Full text link
    We provide a number of new insights into the methodological discussion about author cocitation analysis. We first argue that the use of the Pearson correlation for measuring the similarity between authors’ cocitation profiles is not very satisfactory. We then discuss what kind of similarity measures may be used as an alternative to the Pearson correlation. We consider three similarity measures in particular. One is the well-known cosine. The other two similarity measures have not been used before in the bibliometric literature. Finally, we show by means of an example that our findings have a high practical relevance.information science;Pearson correlation;cosine;similarity measure;author cocitation analysis

    Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts

    Full text link
    We conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more sophisticated methods

    Analysis of Differences in Financial Performance Between Shari’a Banks and Conventional Banks In Indonesia

    Full text link
    The focus of the government on banking deregulation was to facilitate banks operational activities and performance. Nevertheless, instances of violations persist, including, breaches of the minimum lending limit (BMPK), granting credit without a thorough feasibility study process, and non-compliance with liquidity reserve regulations. Even though there was rapid emergence of new banks, this expansion had not always corresponded to an improvement in the financial health of these institutions. The enactment of Law No. 10 of 1998 provided an opportunity for the establishment of anti-usury (credit interest) Islamic banks, which prompted existing conventional banks to adopt a dual banking system, as observed in Malaysia, Bahrain, Kuwait, and Indonesia. The growth of sharia banking holds the promise of fostering a stronger national banking sector. However, certain unresolved issues persist, particularly in assessing the performance disparity between shari’a and conventional banks. This study aimed to investigate the differences in the financial performance of both shari’a and conventional banks in Indonesia during the specified year (2021). It encompassed the population of conventional national private commercial banks and national private shari’a commercial banks. From this population, a sample of eight conventional and five shari’a banks that remained operational until 2021 was selected. The results showed three significant differences in the average financial performance between both banks, specifically, ROA, BOPO, and LDR. Conventional banks exhibited a comparatively lower ROA, higher BOPO, and lower LDR. Furthermore, the comprehensive financial performance analysis effectively distinguished between these two groups of banks. Regarding ROA, BOPO, and LDR, conventional banks appeared to be less profitable than shari’a banks, except in terms of CAR and RORA performance.Fokus pemerintah pada deregulasi perbankan bertujuan untuk memudahkan perbankan dalam menjalankan kegiatan operasionalnya. Fasilitas ini diharapkan dapat mendorong kinerja bank yang lebih baik. Namun, masih terdapat pelanggaran yang dilakukan oleh perbankan, seperti: pelanggaran batas minimum pemberian kredit (BMPK), pemberian kredit tanpa proses studi kelayakan, dan pelanggaran pencadangan likuiditas. Dengan pesatnya kemunculan bank-bank baru tersebut, tidak selalu diikuti dengan peningkatan kesehatan keuangan bank yang baik. Diberlakukannya UU No. 10 Tahun 1998 yang membuka peluang berdirinya bank syariah anti riba (bunga kredit), menyebabkan bank-bank konvensional yang ada menerapkan apa yang dikenal dengan dual banking system, seperti yang terjadi di negara Malaysia, Bahrain, Kuwait dan Indonesia. Dengan berkembangnya jumlah perbankan syariah diharapkan terciptanya perbankan nasional yang lebih baik. Namun masih terdapat permasalahan yang belum dapat diindikasikan, yaitu bagaimana perbedaan kinerja antara bank syariah dan bank konvensional. Sampel yang dipilih sebanyak delapan bank konvensional dan lima bank syariah yang masih beroperasi hingga tahun 2021. Penelitian ini menjelaskan bahwa terdapat tiga perbedaan signifikan rata-rata kinerja keuangan antara bank syariah dan bank konvensional, yaitu: ROA, BOPO dan LDR. ROA bank konvensional lebih rendah, BOPO bank konvensional lebih tinggi, dan LDR bank konvensional lebih rendah; (2) secara simultan kinerja keuangan secara keseluruhan dapat membedakan kinerja keuangan antara kedua jenis bank tersebut, dan (3) dilihat dari kinerja ROA, BOPO dan LDR, bank konvensional kurang menguntungkan dibandingkan bank syariah, kecuali CAR dan kinerja ROR
