    Competition occurs among Islamic banks increasingly tight. In order to survive and remain competitive, an Islamic bank should have an identity and uniqueness which differentiates with other Islamic banks. BRI Sharia in order to enter the world of competition and survive should implement strategies remain competitive advantages to maintain the loyalty of its customers. These strategies are divided into cost leadership, differentiation and focus. The expectation by applying one of these strategies, BRI Sharia can retain the loyalty of the customers and gain new customers. This research aimed to determine which strategies are applied by BRI Sharia. The strategies of the competitive advantage created by M. Porter\u27s such as cost leadership, differentiation, and focus affect significantly on customer loyalty. Data processing was performed using SEM analysis (Structural Equation Model). The results showed that customer loyalty variation can be explained by variabel s of cost leadership, differentiation and focus strategies. From the test results we can conclude that only cost leadership strategy variable that significantly affect customer loyalty of BRI Sharia

    Dengan meningkatnya jumlah investasi dan jumlah investor mengindikasikan bahwa banyak munculnya para investor-investor baru yang berinvestasi pada saham syariah. Investor syariah yang baru memiliki pola perilaku yang berbeda dari para investor yang sudah berada lama dalam kegiatan pasar modal. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui pola perilaku keputusan berinvestasi dan risiko yang diambil oleh investor syariah. Perilaku investor syariah akan diukur dengan menggunakan model the Theory of Planned Behaviour (TPB) Icak Ajzenyang mengindikasikan pola perilaku suatu individu dengan menggunakan variabel behavioural beliefs, subjective norm, perceived behavioral control dan perceived behavioral control. Selain itu risiko investor akan diukur melalui variabel risk taking behaviour. Data yang digunakan menggunakan data primer dengan kuesioner yang dilakukan terhadap 100 responden investor syariah. Data diolah dengan menggunakan teknik estimasi maximum llikelihood dan partial least square. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa intention atau minat investor dalam berinvestasi dipengaruhi oleh behavioural belief, subjectice norm, dan perveived behavioral control terlepas dari risk taking behaviour yang diambil investor. Sedangkan pengendalian perilaku investor syariah mempengaruhi risiko yang diambil

    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

    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

    Get PDF
    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

    We have done our best to complete the author checklist relating to the use of animals in the hut study. Note that the objective for the hut study was to evaluate the IRS treatment applications for residual efficacy against Anopheles mosquitoes, including the local An. coluzzii mosquito population. Cows were only used to attract mosquitoes into the huts and no tests were carried out directly on the cows. The author checklist is intended for use with studies where experiments are carried out on animals, which is why we have had such difficulty in completing this for the hut study, as many of the questions do not relate to how the cows were used
